I installed Ubuntu 8.10 on my PS3 a few months back and I want everyone to know it's not worth the effort. Here's why:-Because the PS3 requires the PPC distro of Ubuntu, many popular apps and tools ...

I already canceled my WAR account due to the game simply being mind numbingly boring after level 40. If we're being honest - even as fans of the game to varying degrees - I think we have to admit th ...

Just curious - why the64-bit version of Vista? Won't that just multiply driver issues and cause greater incompatibility for this, a gaming machine? ...

I get $1,849.00 on that Dell system. I don't know what we're doing different, but your prices are consistently higher when you're configuring Dell systems. I wonder if it is because of CA's variou ...

Lol - that's a big "oops" on my part, I didn't check the date - I was wondering why you chose that processor :)Anyway, I went back and put together a machine on the Dell site based on your r ...

1: Your DIY list doesn't include a keyboard, mouse or motherboard. There are usually other small cables and components that are needed as well that you didn't mention. This would easily add anothe ...

WHS is a total bomb. Everyone else knows it, but you wouldn't think it by reading the MaxPC review. Will Smith worships it in his 9/10 Kickass review, which fails to mention the massive bugs with th ...

Copernic Desktop Search is still better than Windows Search and Google Search. For some reason (probably cuz it's not Google or MS) it doesn't get nearly as much press. It gives faster, more relevan ...

"Adobe has the solution"? Really? This software blows. It can only edit jpg files - as you mention, and can only perform extremely limited image editing tasks. Photoshop software that doesn't let ...

I purchased these headphones based on this review, and I've been amazed at how different they are from what MaxPC portrayed here. First of all, there is a bug with the microphone in Windows Vista tha ...

There are loads of performance issues with WHS, including taking several minutes to pull up the console interface from a connected workstation and general poor performance on the server itself. All o ...

I just noticed that the Office 2003 SP3 comes up in MS Update for a system with Office 2007 installed. It is a brand new system so there shouldn't be any reason to see SP3. Mark, can you check into ...

Thanks for the piece Mark. I believe that Skype is going to have to re-think their software functionality in order to insure this doesn't happen again. With more people utilizing firewalls every day ...

I think we'd all like to know more about these shenanigans. Skype has posted another blog entry going into more detail but conveniently ignoring the most important question: does Skype know wh ...
