Oh My Spielberg!! it finally came true!!

This is called G-speak. It was created by, believe it or not, the guys who were science advisers for Minority Report. So the OS can pretty much do everything. It combines "gestural i/o, recombinant networking, and real-world pixels". It has multiple screens so you can send it to diff areas to work with, Even the front square table in front of the user. The video showcases some of the things it can do, but to me i can see the potential of this to be just absolutely way out there. Check out the vid and you can see what the future is headed to.

PS3 demo: Mirror's Edge

maddsketch@gmail.com (Madd Sketch) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 22:51:00 +0000

I have to be honest I wasn't so hyped up about the game when it was announced and see all the trailers. But when that's the beauty of the demo release, you get to actually try out all these things that they keep bragging about in the game. At first i was worried that it was gonna be nauseating with all the flipping and running. But i have to admit it was really fun playing it over and over and over. To me it felt like the first matrix movie where he just kept running. And if you practice alot you can really flow through the entire demo level. There's alot of things they didn't want you to do like the last bunch of guys shooting at you, you cant' kill them, you have to run lol. But the controls were surprisingly easy, you just have to remember them. The only tricky thing i find is the landing roll thing. You can do it too early or too late, so your always trying to find the right timing. I haven't played a demo over and over again since Call of Duty 4. I dunno what it is about Mirror's Edge but I can't wait for it to come out. Give it a try, but don't be surprised if your motion sickness kicks in.

Samsung's Master Plan Is On Schedule!

noreply@blogger.com (kidmecha) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 05:47:00 +0000

Samsung's diabolical plan of taking over all technology is slowly on it's way. Samsung has been announced as the leading Cell-Phone Maker in the United States of America! Beating Motorola which pretty much whores out it's RAZR and has not paid for it. If you read FCC Fridays on Engadget (like a good techy) you'll probably notice that Samsung has a constant diahrea of phone patents. Good and bad ideas but it's the fact that they market to everyone, not just one demographic; Smart phones, music phones, slider phones, camera phones, fashion phones, cheap phones, expensive phones...well you get the point.

So here's all the links to rub in how wicked Samsung is:

Intel Core i7 (Nehalem) X56 Chipset Is Here! AMD Your Move...

noreply@blogger.com (kidmecha) — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 05:55:00 +0000

Intel's Brand Spanking New i7 is quite the beauty. Here's the run down, this new Processor is 45nm, Quad-Core, making a new socket called LGA1366 using L3 Cache.

There are three models released thus far:

Core i7 920 at 2.66GHz
Core i7 940 at 2.93GHz
Core i7 965 at 3.2GHz

Basically the lowest end Intel Core i7 920 is as good as the Core 2 Extreme QX9770 and then continues to get its ass handed to it by the rest of the models. Though gaming performance has not improved and power consumption has increased a little due to the new power. It has improved performance, creates a new realm for newer models (lots of space for RAM with that new x56 chipset *12GBs of drool, who even needs that much RAM honestly*).

Take a look at all the reviews at Engadget which has a great round up of most of them...

AMD's ATI 4830 is kickin some butt around $150 and runs Crisis 1.2 at an impressive 61.14 FPS with 1280 by 1024 medium quality, no AA. Check the review of that at Hot Hardware, they seem have more of a modest test unlike AnAndTech testing with more brutal games

A DIY ergonomic laptop stand that raises your screen to eye level, in a very inexpensive cheap manner. With a coat hanger, bent...

This just seems like a guy who wants you to try this and watch your laptop fall and break... but that's just me.

Hammer Portable hard drives

noreply@blogger.com (kidmecha) — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 02:28:00 +0000

Hammar Storage company has a great idea of unlimited colours and designs, so that it will become a must-have computer accessory. All I am wondering is how they can say that they have a 750GB External laptop hard drive coming soon, when I have not even heard of that being done yet. But, I guess I shouldn't be surprised; I mean Seagate just released the 1.5TB 3.5HDD.

Samsung to the Rescue!

noreply@blogger.com (kidmecha) — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 22:09:00 +0000

My dream has come true, Samsung has decided to come down to North America and sell it's X360 and X460 laptop here. The laptop is a little pricey for it's debut; at $1,899 and $2,499, i don't think it's going to be doing great during this recession. The laptops do come with 10.2 inch screen, in at 2.8 pounds, 160 GB HDD (X460) and a 128GB SSD (X360) for a larger price making the laptop $2,499.
