Apparently, copies of Grand Theft Auto 4 have somehow made their way onto peer to peer networks, with what looks like the Xbox 360 full version available for download.  It is currently at number one in a number of pirate charts, in a move that could well have a negative impact on sales.
Files that are […]

For the geek with a whimsical sartorial style, nothing beats acquiring accessories that subtly advertise his love/obsession for various activities and pursuits that only other geeks could understand or decipher.
Take for example, the Wiimote cufflink from Cufflinks.com. It’s a wonderful men’s accessory that doesn’t scream “loser”. Its for the debonair geek who just needs something […]

 
Nothing advertises that you’re a geek as much as whipping out a satellite dish whenever you surf. And with the new And that’s what you’ll do with the nifty Hi-Gain USB Wireless-300N Dish Adapter from Hawking Technologies.
This portable satellite dish is attached to your laptop and what it does is to amplify weak Wi-Fi signals. […]

  Okay, I’m filing this under the “toys” category! Ha ha!This has got to be one of the “geekiest” things I’ve ever seen.  I know the picture’s perfect for the caption “imagine no more”, but I just couldn’t make my mind believe that one will never imagine at all.  I bet this is a perfect product […]

Smash Bros is probably the only famous Nintendo video-game franchise I’ve never had the pleasure of owning. I’ve played it a couple of times before, the action is “crazy” and it takes little more than random button mashing to achieve good, or decent, results. In that aspect Smash Bros is no different from most other […]

Is it just me or do geeks tend to like Natalie Portman? One thing’s for sure, this geek certainly does.
Making her even more desirable to our nerd hearts, is the fact that the actress has just been named the most eco-friendly star by green Website Grist.org.
From working to save the gorillas in Rwanda to […]

 
Dell’s making a greener switch these days.  Visit www.dell.com right now and you’d see something in there that’s called “Dell Earth”.  Is Dell setting a pace for mother earth, I think this will become a yardstick for the year.  “How green (eco-friedly) is your computer?” maybe a question one would ask soon than the standard […]

Gadgetell has a great story about a car theft and the community forum that helped get it back.
Cyber crime often makes the news, but this time a “Cyber Village” was credited as the crime fighters. The cast of characters (other than the thief) were all members of the beyond.ca car enthusiast’s forum. You see, the […]

They say that an imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. But in this case I think that this imitation should indeed become the default option for all low/medium-end desktop computers.

Taking a page from Apple’s iMac, this computer includes everything you’d expect to find in a bulky box besides (or underneath) the monitor, inside the monitor […]

I can’t stand playing certain downloaded games on my Nintendo Wii. The control scheme is set up that playing certain Super Nintendo games, just doesn’t work out well, and oddly enough, Nintendo never created a way to remap buttons on my Gamecube controller to make things easier.
Both my wife and I have been craving […]

Comicbook legend Frank Miller is currently in talks to direct one of his own comicbook masterpieces — Hard Boiled.
Hard Boiled was a wonderful collaboration between Miller and artist Geoff Darrow (who became known to non-comicbook reading movie fans for helping flesh out the distinctive visual look of The Matrix trilogy) and was one of the […]

This has got to be one of the strangest IPod Nano skins I found. Solid Alliance (Tokyo based company) released last week what they call “Karrubi pod Lear”, a motif Karrubi marbled beef skin.  This has all things a skin is made for, protecting the IPod Nano from scratches and all.  Is it danger free […]

 
Fighting game fans will definitely want to get the Mortal Kombat VS DC Universe game that will be released during the latter half of the year. The ability to pit your fave Mortal Kombat characters against various DC Universe superheroes is well worth the price of admission. I’ll definitely grab this game when it comes […]

Pretty much ever computer component increases in speed over a short period of time, but hard drives haven’t seen the same sort of speed increases as RAM, CPU’s or even at the rate that the storage capacity on hard drives is expanding.
Western Digital has released a new hard drive technology nicknamed VelociRaptor that is upwards […]

I hope I still have your attention after the Tetris vinyl wallpaper article.  Yes, I still have yet another Tetris treat.  I promise it will be the last.  I just couldn’t help looking at the Meiji Chocolate Bar (now marketed as a cute tetris brick-puzzle, by Strapya-world.com).  For Meiji fans your guess is right, it […]
