How do I get an Xbox 360 for under $100 (that’s fully functional and working)?

Where do I get them?

What’s the catch? …. seriously.

Is there anything wrong with them?

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.

Supplemental to:
Clevo D900F (Sager NP9280) Ultra-Detailed Review
Clevo D900F 4th fan modification

I posted this a while back at the NotebookReview forums…
… but I decided to post it here and show you what I used to overclock the Core i7 in a supposed un-overclockable notebook (BIOS and software).

This notebook, as well as many other high-end Clevo models do not give overclocking ability in the BIOS.
… kind of annoying to own such a high-end system and not having the options to push it further.

I literally wasted two days trying to find a solution for getting a viable overclocking option.

I thought maybe edit the BIOS… but I did not have the latest Phoenix BIOS editor, as well as my programming skills are quite under par.

Then I decided to find a software solution… it was a painful journey as well… for the most part.

I will show you how the “World’s Fastest Notebook” just got faster…. eat your hearts out desktop owners.

Supplemental to my:
- Clevo D900F (Sager NP9280) Ultra-Detailed Review
- Clevo D900F 4th fan modification

This is for all of the XP holdouts that do not want to use Vista or Windows 7 as their one and only operating system.

Since Clevo and their vendors will not officially give support to using Windows XP (32-bit) for the Clevo D900F, I came up with my list of drivers that will work perfectly with the system.

Firstly, I would like to personally thank Justin Nolte of Xotic PC in providing me with this system for testing and evaluation. I will be going over the latest in notebook (as well as desktop) technology in the new undisputed “World’s Fastest Notebook.”

This will be the most detailed and in-depth review you will ever find for notebooks on the Internet… I want to make sure you know everything that I found about any review that I will do. I believe that one should be as informed as possible for any future purchase… especially when its a high-end electronic or computer.

The Power of Voice-Over

As revealed during E3, Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ will be fully voiced. Watch our third Video Documentary, where we explore how voice-over conversations deliver a deeper level of immersion and connection to the story and development of characters. Every playable character and every non-playable character in the game will be brought to life by voice actors — resulting in several thousand speaking roles and hundreds of thousands of recorded lines of dialogue!
