Re: Netlist Announces mSATA Mini & Slim SSDs

Funny that they call it 'industrial' since they always called those specs on parts 'military grade' in the past.

Re: Razer Hydra with Sixense Designed for Portal 2

Lot of tall talk, makes you wonder how it handles in real life with the latency and 'suprfastaction' buttons and stuff. It's funny that they actually boast with 'magnetic sensors' because they are basically saying 'we didn't fit gyros too, doh', advertising with not having stuff. Not that I'm intere...

Re: AMD Reports First Quarter Results

Going by the previous CEO's I'm guessing the profits doubled because they didn't have to pay half their income in bonuses? :)

Re: WORLD'S FIRST PATENTED ROUTER COOLER - Dr. Cool

It's not a bad design how it creates space underneath and can be used for various sizes and in various orientations. But 80mm is a bit dated and noisy though compared to 120mm. Still, I'm surprised it's so cleverly universal. And in reply to the other comment, most all routers do have holes, and by ...

Re: Gunnar Optiks Wi-FIVE Digital Performance Eyewear

I do actually not believe you got paid for this review (I'm trusting like that ;p), but I don't buy this 'we are so pure and anybody even remotely doubting us is outrageous' either, the thing with the NDA's is that you sign a paper and do a review but deliberately keep it from the readers until a en...

Re: Gunnar Optiks Wi-FIVE Digital Performance Eyewear

So you suggest people can't speak up when you move into questionable territory, and then speak german to me like the original people with such views? Uhm.. WTF I guess that's a joke then. Anyway to put it in a way so people who aren't good with text can get it: I think only a gullible fool falls for...

Re: Gunnar Optiks Wi-FIVE Digital Performance Eyewear

I immediately ordered 2, one for myself and one for a widow I met online from Nigeria who recently got hold of the sum of 16 (sixteen) million dollars. I hope you get my point here... There's one born every minute, actually I guess these days more than 5 are born every minute. Here's an idea: homesh...

Re: Kingston 128GB V+ Series SNV325-S2 SSD Review

I don't quite see how you can seriously argue desktop use doesn't require 4K reads so much, desktop use is actually more small files, like icons and ini's and what not. Although since they are small I guess slower speed isn't so much the issue as fast access times are. In that light, a comparative t...

Re: Intel Smoke-engine demo - Windows Vista versus 7

Yeah it stutters and that was not a smart thing in the PR sense, but it is interesting to learn MS tweaked the kernel of w7 for intel's hyperthreading, especially in light of the suits running and won against intel, like the thing about their compiler optimizations not being used at all when an AMD ...

Re: Which motherboard company is more efficient ASUS or Gigabyte

That's only a saving comparable to (6) 100 watt light bulbs on for one day during the whole month. Not a whole lot, but I guess it's a step in the right direction. I think that if you are into energy saving you'd use energy efficient lightbulbs and one 100 Watt light bulb would be more like 9 energ...

Re: Foxconn X38A Motherboard Review

Are there easy ways to test what a metal is? apart from magnetism, that won't work with copper vs aluminium. I always wondered, because it is done on a regular basis that they paint aluminium in a copper color, or make some sort of copper/aluminium amalgamation because scratching it doesn't work to ...

Re: Foxconn X38A Motherboard Review

Strange question perhaps but is it me or are some parts of the heatsink(s) actually aluminium painted to look like copper? or some amalgamation of copper and aluminium? it just looks a bit off on the pictures.
