  • These are all the Steam Machines coming in 2015 - The biggest news? That Steam Machines will start arriving this fall.
  • Samsung Announces Pricing, Availability For New Line Of Curved Monitors - Just weeks after Samsung introduced five new curved monitors to the international crowd, Samsung Electronics America revealed this week that four of those panels will be heading to North America in May 2015. These include the 31.5-inch SE590C Series, the 27-inch SE591C Series and the SE510C Series, which arrives in 23.6-inch and 27-inch flavors. For starters, the SE590C series monitor is the only one in the batch with a 3000R curvature; all of the others sport a curvature of 4000R. All of these monitors have a resolution of 1920 x 1080, a response time of 4 ms, a refresh rate of 60 Hz and support for 16.7 million colors. Other similar traits include a 16:9 aspect ratio, 178-degree viewing angles, HDMI input and a headphone jack.
  • Early Benchmarks Put Retina MacBook CPU Performance  - According to MacRumors, the new benchmarks put the 2015 MacBook on par in terms of sheer numbers with a 2011 i7 MacBook Air. But, the true power of the new Intel chip cannot be determined solely by the GeekBench benchmarking tool because it does not measure the graphics capability of the new chip. In order to judge the true performance of the new MacBook, a more comprehensive test will have to be performed that tests the GPU and improved SSD. Apple offers two additional processor upgrade options for the Retina MacBook, at 1.2GHz in the higher-end machine and at 1.3GHz as an optional build-to-order upgrade, both of which will see somewhat better performance results than the entry-level 1.1GHz processor. The new Retina MacBook, which is Apple's thinnest and lightest notebook to date, will go on sale on April 10. Prices start at $1,299 for the 1.1GHz/8GB/256GB model and $1,599 for the 1.2GHz/8GB/512GB model.
  • Microsoft stops producing Kinect for Windows v2 sensor, will focus on Kinect for Xbox One and Windows apps - Microsoft stopped producing the Kinect for Windows v2 sensor after phasing out the original sensor not long ago. The company emphasized, however, that this does not mean it will stop supporting developers who want to build Windows apps that use the device.
  • PiKasa Will Turn Your Raspberry Pi into a Laptop - The ultimate housing for your Raspberry Pi, with a 7" (800x480) LCD, keyboard, power supply,USB hub, speakers and battery charger - all inside a fantastic looking housing. From Pi to Appliance in 3 minutes !
  • Windows 7 Momentum Grows, Shows No Sign of Slowing - Windows 7 is following in the footsteps of its older cousin, Windows XP, in its expected resilience and user loyalty all the way until its inevitable end of support life in 2020. It is conceivable that Windows 7 could co-exist with Windows 10 and even garner a full quarter of user share in the process.
  • Windows XP Still No. 2 Operating System - Net Applications gave XP a 16.9 percent share for the month of March, a hefty drop from the 19.1 percent recorded in February. Though XP's grip on the market continues to loosen, it remains the No. 2 most-used operating system based on Net Application's Web stats, beating Windows 8 and 8.1 and their collective share of 14 percent. Windows 8.1 took the third spot with a 10.5 percent share, leaving Windows 8 in fifth place with just 3.5 percent. It will be interesting to see how well Windows 10 does once it hits the market. Especially considering it will be free for Windows 7 - 8.1 users for the first year.
  • Microsoft says that open sourcing Windows is "definitely possible" - Microsoft has changed a great deal over the years - from launching its own devices to its new cross-platform strategy of making its software as widely available as possible. But if you were in any doubt of the company's changing attitudes, consider the comments made by its Technical Fellow, Mark Russinovich. In an interview published today by WIRED, Russinovich said that open sourcing its Windows operating system is "definitely possible". Indeed, he added that Microsoft has already discussed and considered the possibility: "Every conversation you can imagine about what [we] should do with our software - open versus non-open versus services - has happened."
  • Learn How to Hack an App Video Series - Would you like to learn how mobile apps are getting attacked and what you can do about it? Jonathan Carter from Arxan shows real life examples of tools and approaches readily available in the market to hack into a mobile application.
  • Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge revealed to be just as easily bendable - How bad is it? Pretty bad, according to a San Francisco-based extended warranty service provider that took the matter so seriously it conceived a 'BendBot'. Exactly, a robot whose sole purpose in life is to test the fortitude of various gadgets while under pressure.
  • LG Shows Off the G4's QHD Display - LG Display today revealed a new screen for smartphones that stretches 5.5 inches across the diagonal and boasts quad HD (2,560 x 1,440) resolution. According to LG, the new panel uses in-cell touch technology to reduce thickness while maintaining excellent sensitivity. It can be used when wet, for example. LG also says the LCD panel offers 50% higher contrast and is 30% brighter than its previous screens, while not requiring any more power. Combined, LG says these two elements help improve outdoor viewability. LG plans to use the panel in and upcoming flagship smartphone, which is likely the successor to last year's G3.
  • Here's how to run Android apps on your PC or Mac - The first thing you will need is a version of the Chrome browser which is over 40 and the ARC Chrome app. Once the app has been added to the app launcher within Chrome, an Android app's APK needs to be found. A simple Google search will yield results. Once downloaded, open the ARC app and find the .apk file which has been downloaded and open it. The ARC app will give various settings - which orientation the screen should be and so on - and once you are happy with those, simply click "Launch App" and the app will start. The software is only in beta, so don't expect perfect service, but the apps that I loaded worked well and Google is going to be frequently updating ARC in order to add new features.
  • Google Adds Master Inbox View to Gmail for Android - Google today updated its Gmail application for Android devices with the ability to see all emails from various accounts in a single, master inbox. Using the new "All Inboxes" option will lump together emails from Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, and IMAP/POP accounts into a single view. This way users can respond to emails from all their accounts without having to switch inboxes. Further, Google will automatically thread email conversations from non-Gmail addresses to help users keep their inbox under control. Other new features include improved auto-complete when using the search box, more responsive animations, larger attachment previews, and the ability to save to Drive with a single tap. The new version of Gmail for Android devices is available from the Google Play Store.
  • Sling TV will add HBO content - Although it was thought that Apple would have exclusive access to HBO content, it looks like Sling TV will also offer HBO content in the near future. While an exact date has not been announced, Sling TV ensures that it will have HBO content on its service in time to watch the April 12th season premiere of Game of Thrones. This will be excellent news to some, knowing that they will not be required to purchase an Apple TV in order to subscribe to HBO service. Naturally, Sling TV subscribers will have the same type of access to HBO's content as those subscribed to HBO GO. Along with acclaimed series like True Detective and The Wire, subscribers will also have access to movies like the Fast & Furious 6 and The Lego Movie. You will still be required to sign up for Sling's basic service which is priced at $20 USD a month. HBO access will be an additional $15 on top of that. Currently, Sling TV can be viewed on a variety of streaming boxes and the Xbox One.
  • The startup CEO who stole $765k from his friends - Dressed in matching yellow scrubs from the nearby Alameda County Jail, Jon Mills looked resigned to his fate. After taking a plea deal on two felony counts of wire fraud, the young former startup CEO appeared in federal court Tuesday afternoon for sentencing. Mills had moved to California five years ago with a dream to hit it big in Silicon Valley. The company he founded, Motionloft, uses small sensors to perform analytics on in-store foot traffic. Everything worked. The company continues to succeed, and celebrity venture capitalist Mark Cuban remains its sole investor. But that success wasn't enough. In early 2013, Mills told at least five people that if they gave him relatively small amounts of money, they would own stakes in the company. He claimed that a Cisco acquisition worth hundreds of millions of dollars was supposedly imminent, so Mills and all Motionloft shareholders others would stand to make a tidy profit. In reality, Mills knew the deal didn't exist.
  • Record-Shattering, All-Electric 1968 Mustang - The Zombie 222 produces over 800 horsepower and a mind-numbing 1,800 pounds of torque. Those numbers translate into a 0-60 time of just 2.4 seconds, a remarkable eighth-mile time of 6.8 seconds at 101 mph and an estimated quarter-mile time of 10.7 seconds at 125 mph
  • Volvo Selling Highly Reflective "Life Paint" For Bicyclist - Volvo has developed something called "Life Paint" that will hopefully prevent you from running over people on bicycles at night.
  • Parkinson's diagnosis by typing on a keyboard - In a new study from MIT, researchers show how analyzing people's keystrokes as they type can reveal a great deal of information about the state of their motor function. Using the researchers' algorithm for analyzing keystroke patterns could lead to the diagnosis of diseases that impair motor function, such as Parkinson's disease, much earlier than is now possible.
  • Virtual reality, explained with some trippy optical illusions - Michael Abrash, the chief scientist for Facebook's Oculus, took the stage during day two of the F8 Developer Conference in San Francisco to blow everyone's mind with some trippy optical illusions.

  • The History Of The Uzi, In Video Games And Real Life - Uzis are, like the AK-47, a weapon built to be made cheaply and have foolproof operation. Because of this, the uzi, both in games and real-world application, started as a tool of warfare and became the face of criminal empires.

Give me my 27inch 16:10 and I'll get one.

PC computing power is doubled every year. That's four years, so it's 2^4, meaning it should be 32x faster, lol
This is so Apple.

No surprises here.

No surprises here, either.
I don't know why MS was thinking cutting patches would force people buy into WinDOS 8.

"Every conversation you can imagine about what [we] should do with our software - open versus non-open versus services - has happened."
And it's closed source. So what does it matter what Russinovich is ranting about?

Not really. You both got the content and the basis of moore's law wrong:

quote:

The complexity for minimum component costs has increased at a rate of roughly a factor of two per year. Certainly over the short term this rate can be expected to continue, if not to increase. Over the longer term, the rate of increase is a bit more uncertain, although there is no reason to believe it will not remain nearly constant for at least 10 years.
[emphasis added]

G. Moore, 1965


The density of IC's double every 24 months. That doesn't in any way mean double the processing power every year.

The macbook is also a lot less square inches of integrated circuits, so it's fine that the benchmark places them equal. the main board looks a bit like a raspberry pi in size.

El_Coyote(10:19 AM CEST - Apr,06 2015 )
seems there are some sort of posting issue with the forums at the moment.

If this is regard to Steambox. I think you are wrong. Not saying Steambox in particular but a PC attached to your TV, yes. I've been doing it for years and people are catching on right now.

Tom(10:02 PM CEST - Apr,08 2015 )
Steambox is dumb, I forfeit all my previous support. Pay that much for a cutdown PC with probably crap parts?! Right. I suspect it won't do very well when released.
