More and more we’re seeing motherboard manufacturers revamping and re-releasing 800mhz FSB Intel 845PE motherboards to hold us upgrade geeks over until the 865 and 875 platforms come through for us to drool over. Fortunately enough Gigabyte has hit a winner with their 845PE board. Although it’s going to be considered an older model of [...]

D-Link i2eye DVC-1000 VideoPhone Review
Video teleconferencing is nothing new to mainstream technology. The ability to share a video feed along with audio has helped corporations and businesses alike close the gap between great distances. Anyone that has experienced a conference call knows that being able to associate a name with a face allows the “conference” to be a lot [...]
MidiLand S4 8200 Speakers v2.0 Review
There’s no way in hell the guys at the office would let me test out this speaker system (or any) at our offices in San Diego. So like any good reviewer who wants to crank the sound up to see just how loud a speaker set could possibly be, I took them home to my [...]

Harman Kardon SoundSticks

Macintosh users are known for not going gaga over complex hardware and software installation procedures – leave that for the PC. Here, the soundsticks live up to that ease-of-use [...]
XFX GeForce4 Ti4400 Video Card Review
The tag line of XFX Graphics is simple, in your face, and provocative – “Video Cards That Kick Ass.” Don’t believe me? Then check out the box sometime, it’s right on there! XFX recently released their powerful GeForce4 Ti4400 board, and we must admit, this card is one mighty piece of hardware action. [...]
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz PCI Sound Card Review
If you’re anything like this reviewer, you are one to enjoy healthy competition within the industry of consumer electronics. For PC people (and MAC for that matter), there’s been pretty much one major vendor when it comes to Sound Card technology – Creative Labs. One other thing you might have in common with this reviewer [...]

If you’re anything like this reviewer, you’ve used, abused, and reused your CDs. From the music CDs that are taken from player to computer, from computer to the car, and back from the car to your stereo, to the CD-ROMs that are occasionally shuffled around, it’s easy to build up scratches, abrasions, dust, fingerprints, and [...]
