Battle of the Blogs

Ok.. how much of a dork am I. I’ve entered my blog in a competition against other blogs. Why would I do this, you may ask. Well, please refer to the first sentence. Its always interesting to see what people think of your work as compared to others, it gives you a sense of accomplishment, or in some cases, failure.

I managed to win my first battle and then entered another. We’ll see if I can keep my streak alive. If you want to vote for me, head over to BlogExplosion and sign up, then go to the Battle of the Blogs page and vote.

Going “Old School” will cost you

There’s a new keyboard in town with an “old school” feel. But the biggest problem is it will cost you some real world moola.
Avant Stellar

The Avant Stellar keyboard stands as a major throwback in a PC industry that thrives on making devices smaller, sleeker and quieter. Creative VisionTechnologies has created a keyboard that’s clunky, loud and heavy. And it may be exactly what you’re looking for, especially if reprogramming keys is your thing.

New Video card just in time for Christmas

NVidia 6800 GSNVidia is coming out with a more price-conscious version of their popular 6800GT video card. The 6800GS promises GT performance but at a $30-$50 lower price. Personally for me, $250 is still too much to pay for a video card. But that may just be the cheap side of me talking. I would like to see big performance in the sub-$150 range. Then I might be able to convince myself to upgrade.
