OLPC shakeup: dual-screen XO-2 out, ARM-based XO 1.75 in

Because they have such a great track record with pricing and release dates. People stopped caring about this company when they jumped into bed with Microsoft and ruined any good will people had for them.

PlayStation 3 Wireless Keypad review

Dec 19th 2008 2:02PM on Engadget

See if you can lay your mitts on a refurb gyration keypad. They have much better range than most wireless keypads and they are considerably smaller than a regular keyboard (albeit harder to type on as well if you have big hands).

I enjoy gametrailer's but their reviews are definitely biased when it comes to PS3 games. Ever see them review a PS3 version of a game that was released on both the platforms? Never. Well other than the incredibly misleading 360/PS3 comparison videos which are incredibly subjective.

No Windows? Use Linux, Intel Macs for PC Gaming with CrossOver

May 23rd 2008 9:43AM on Joystiq

Bootcamp has nothing to do with Wine (CrossOver). Wine is an actual implementation of the Win32 lib/system interface for non-windows operating systems. Its not emulation. Its not dual booting.

Actually regular old Wine plays a crap ton of games without having to shell out any money for cross over. I've got applications that run faster under Wine on linux than they do on the same machine running windows. Its kinda scary :)

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"What's the best gaming laptop for under 1,500 bucks? I had my eye on the P7805u (Gateway), but it seems Best Buy has run out for the time being. Also, as a secondary question, I like the specs on brands such as iBUYPOWER and CyberPower and the like, but are they reliable? I'm a little worried about buying labels that aren't huge like Dell, Gateway, etc. Thanks!"
