Sandberg intros wireless keyboard / touchpad combo for HTPCs {Engadget}
Jul 25th 2008 11:00PM OK, Mr. Negativity. I think it looks pretty nice. Weird place for the Media Center Button though.
The Ripserver may make your CD collection history {Engadget}
Mar 5th 2008 12:18PM That's totally what I was thinking. Who wants to sit in front of this thing and change its disc every five minutes? Right now the only difference between this (as far as I know) and my computer is that I don't have to click the "Rip" button with the RipServer. There is no way that clicking one less button is worth $1,189.
Apple "actively courting" Sony for slot-loading Blu-ray drives? {Engadget}
Feb 29th 2008 11:20PM Will someone answer this question: Is the quality of watching HD movies over DVD movies on a 13/15/17 inch screen that much better? If no, then that is probably a reason that Apple would wait for the burner. The value added with a Blu-ray burner is much larger than the value added with a Blu-ray player (at least for the Macbook side of things).
How would you change Everex's $199 gPC? {Engadget}
Jan 18th 2008 7:24PM I totally agree. For crying out loud this thing has an Mini-ITX motherboard. Just because some "market researcher" said that Wal-Mart shoppers believe that size = system capabilities, doesn't mean you have to make it unnecessarily large and aesthetically unappealing. Make it smaller, take out some of the ugly, and I'll consider picking one up.
MusicGiants launches VideoGiants, with HD movies from Paramount {Engadget}
Jan 9th 2008 3:43PM Exactly what I was thinking. $15.99 per movie plus the hard drive is awesome. The only problem is backing the data up. Buying an extra HD for backup or burning the data to disc would be a pain.
DirecTV's PC tuner (HDPC-20) is real! {Engadget}
Jan 8th 2008 10:33AM If this thing does HD then I'm in. I would even cancel my Dish contract and pay the termination fee.
A year in Xbox 360 failures: 2007 Edition {Joystiq}
Jan 2nd 2008 12:50PM I own three XBOX 360s that are 18, 12, and 9 months old. I have never got a "RROD" but I seem to be getting more random crashes and "Disc unreadable" errors as time goes by. Probably a sign that things are going down hill.
Comcast CEO sees 160Mbps internet in 2008 {Engadget}
Nov 30th 2007 10:54PM I feel you man. The street behind, in front, and the street perpendicular to my street all have Comcast but they wont come run cable to my street. Because there are only 15 houses on the street they said it wouldn't be worth it for them.
Comcast CEO sees 160Mbps internet in 2008 {Engadget}
Nov 30th 2007 10:26PM Sigh . . . and here I am stuck on a street without broadband. I would do just about anything for 1.5Mb DSL let alone 160Mb cable.
Some Maxtor Personal Storage 3200s shipped with virus {Engadget}
Nov 12th 2007 2:31AM I think Seagate bought out Maxtor a while back.
