So, with Windows 7 now live, one has to wonder: when will Windows XP finally kick the bucket for good? Windows 7 is poised to get at least a few of them to upgrade, but will it really be the bombshell release Microsoft needs to get windows users to be paying windows users? In my opinion, there are 3 changes that would be beneficial in getting more people to switch to windows 7 from XP.

Fun Coffee-Break Game: Lost Labyrinth
I came across this gem while scouring the internet one day. It is a “roguelike” game, supporting multiple players on hotseat (on computer) and many randomly generated dungeons. This is a fun game to play for a few minutes or to try to conquer by state saving.

eVGA 7600gs AGP Review
The eVGA 7600gs from Newegg
About a week ago I bought a 7600gs for my brother’s computer. It was an easy install and so far has been a very good “bang for the buck” device. For only about 100 dollars, he is able to run UT 2004 and Counter Strike Source on highest graphics. He runs them on 1024×768 due to monitor limitations, but at about 60-120 fps in UT and 35-70 in CS:S. (more…)

The HX192D LCD from Hanns G
I recently purchased a 19″ Hanns G monitor, and so far I’ve been very impressed. Right out of the box the first thing I noticed was the extremely high brightness. This was quickly remedied by setting the brightness to 30 (which is what is what I still run it at today.) After setting the brightness I noticed something quite annoying. A stuck pixel. The stuck pixel was bottom right and bright red. I was a little annoyed by it but luckily, about three days later, it disappeared on its own (and a couple hours of running JScreenFix basic and afterwards rubbing it for about one minute.) Ok, so I really wanted it gone! (more…)
Logitech G5 Laser Mouse Review
Well, I’ve ran a variety of tests from self-feel tests to actual hardware tests and the Logitech G5 is one heck of great bargain! For fifty dollars (which seems like a lot at first for something as simple as a mouse) allows use of the best mouse I have ever used! The accuracy of the mouse is extremely good thanks to the advanced laser technology. (more…)
