    HDCP over Displayport on Windows 8 Media Center

    Touchpads

    I've been looking for multi-touch-pads for Windows 8. I just ordered the Logitech T650 last night, but don't expect to receive it until after Sandy blows through. I'll post my thoughts after I receive it. I bought it blind, as there don't appear to be any decent reviews, and I use a Logitech...

    Help with HDCP conundrum

    I have a silicon dust prime. I mainly use it for my htpc, but I regularly use it on my workstation, watching something mindless late at night. I recently made a couple of changes to my monitor setup that hes left me without an HDCP compliant path. I've got a NEC PA271W hooked up with...

    Briefcases/Computer bags

    So, this is kind of off topic, but not sure where else to put it. I am looking for a professional, serious looking briefcase. I'm looking for leather, but am open to something else. ~500$ price point. I like the look of saddleback leather bags, but can't buy from them for arbitrary...

    Windows Media Center Picture Quality

    I've had an SD Prime for a few months now, and use it daily for watching television on my computer. I basically run it in windowed mode late at night with my headphones on while working. I built a dedicated htpc last week, and have it hooked up to my main television. It's running Windows8...

    A Challenge

    This is at the theoretical stage -- it might be a project I pursue over the next year. I'd like to set up a system that allows me to watch and record three cable news channels at the same time: CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News. I'd prefer to do it with a single computer. The recordings need to be in...

    Need to find decent approach to testing web rendering on Macs

    I've recently transitioned into basically a full time web developer. I sort of unintentionally fell into it, when I discovered that I was a bit more artistic than I'd given my self credit for in the past. I've been a windows guy for long time, and started using Linux, Fedora and Ubuntu...
