Hey folks, just wanted you to know what I am up to.

I have in my possession two highly anticipated and demanded high-end Intel Core i7 Mobile notebooks.
Clevo W860CU (aka. Sager NP8690) …… new 15.6″ with mobile Core i7 and single Nvidia GTX 280M (standard MXM 3.0B)
Dell Precision M6500 ……. new 17″ with mobile Core i7 and single ATI FirePro  M7740 -or- Nvidia Quadro 2800M/3800M (Proprietary modules)

I will be doing my “ultra-detailed” review for each of them, as well as do a mini comparison for them. Also, I can even make service manuals for them since I took the time to document the fully disassemblies of the systems. :) READ MORE…

Alright folks, that time of the year has come again… I am talking about Black Friday.

This year (2009), Black Friday will fall on November 27.

As you know, I am extremely frugal (cheap) and therefore I know my deals and will show you how to take advantage of this great day of deals.

I will be keeping the Deals – Black Friday 2009 page (the tab on top of the site) as updated as possible, just check it out daily.
…. and yes, its Wiki friendly, so you can contribute to the list if you want.

Want to know where to find the most up to date sources for Black Friday information? (other than here of course ;) )

Want to know how to get any of the sales items from Black Friday without having to get in line with the masses?

Are you a hardcore gamer?  Can you prove it when there is nothing to win… only to lose?

Some one has created a Mac OS X game with the high stakes and winning means you could lose it all.

The game is called “Lose/Lose” and that is actually what happens when you kill  enemies in the game.

Exciting news for the video game world.  The most anticipated MMORPG for the PC (no, not Final Fantasy XIV Online)… Star Wars: The Old Republic will be at the stage to need a lot of beta testers.

If you feel you have what it takes to help make this game as great as it can be before it goes retail, come and join the beta.

Or if you just want to try out the game at its pre-release stage of development, you can come as well… but seriously, report any bugs or issues to help out the developers.
