Maximum PC PDF Issue Archives Updated!

Posted 08/26/2009 at 01:05:27am

I was wondering what was up with that ;)

The pdf archive is a significant part of why I love MPC, tis free to all and I can go back and bask in the nostalgia of the good ol days, that once-upon-a-time bleeding edge hardware.

Ahhh Opera. My fav browser till chrome managed to bribe me in with speed. Opera will still have a spot in my heart.... superior session management, slickness, nice themes, those myopera anywhere-you-go bookmarks.

Guess the revolution only happens for so long before you have to call it something else. I kinda wish they had a corded version of this rodent, but ever since the G9 i'm not too willing to look back.

Cooler Master Makes Splash in Mouse Market with Twin Lasers

Yeah... I don't think anything is going to pry the G9 from my hands for awhile.

OLED? FAIL! it will probs drive the price right up. Sorta reminds me of that over-hyped russian keyboard with the oled screen keys. Unless you are going to put your mouse on static display on your desk, I dont see the point of having a screen that your hand will cover most of the time... unless you have a mouse odometer on it.

White Paper: Surge Suppression

Posted 08/22/2009 at 02:33:25am

My good'ol Tripp lite that I bought back in 2001 takes a lickin and keeps on tickin, but whenever possible I prefer to play it safe and just unplug my electronics from the outlet. Maybe it's just paranoia, but i don't trust those "soft" power switches on some of the ups units (the hard switches on most power bars I'm ok with, but rather unplug it anyway - except for the one that requires a leg or two against the wall to pull from the outlet :P)

Apperantly there is alot more that can kill your precious circuits too, even if unplugged! (EMP anyone?)

Microsoft Champions Vista as More Secure than XP, Leopard, or Linux

Posted 07/14/2008 at 12:12:07pm

In my experience the greatest security threat is PEBKAC (problem exists between keyboard and chair, aka the user). The average user simply does not know what they are doing and thus cause themelves trouble, if everyone took some time to read up a bit on some basic pc security (switch browsers, do your updates, use AV/Firewall, use a custom HOSTS file etc etc) then the internet would be a safer place.
