If you’re like me and LOVED LOVED LOVED the new Dark Knight film, then you may be interested in checking out IGN’s list of their wants for the DVD release of the movie. I enjoyed the article, and think you will too! Click the following link for the goods.
That’s right, I thought I’d feed the hype by pasting in the little spore widget from my spore page. Have a look at my cute little creature friends, and be sure to join in on the fun yourselves. I highly recommend this game (at least the currently available creature creator portion of the game) to anyone. It’s user friendly, and most importantly fun!

Similar to my previous post about the NAS comparison review from Engadget, we have a Media Center Extender ’shootout’ as well. If you’re not entirely sure what a Media Center Extender is, this is a device that hooks up to your TV as an extension of your PC’s Media Center. To further clarify, this would provide a way to stream video, pictures, music, etc., from your PC to your TV. If you would like my opinion, although lacking native wireless, the Xbox 360 has fantastic streaming abilities, similar to those of a super hero. This puppy has extremely easy setup, great codec support (yes, DivX people!), and did I mention that it’s the best next gen console on the market (this is solely based on my always correct opinion). With similar pricing to the other Extenders reviewed, you can’t really miss.

Question: What is better than a home NAS? Answer: Absolutely nothing. I currently run a home server (that totally counts as a NAS, although slightly more complicated, and more fully featured), and couldn’t ever go back. I stream media to all computers in my home as well as my Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. I recommend, no, I urge you to get some kind of NAS setup. Here is some great information to make the choice of a NAS easier.
I can’t tell you how excited I am for this new product. I personally need a cheap yet usable laptop for school, so once available, I will be picking up this glossy hunk of laptop love. If you’re one of those people, check out the first unboxing at the provided link.

Fantastic. We need more teachers like this in the word. The student, having been asked to complete a writing exam did so by writing two words: f*** off. The teacher scored the student 2 / 27 for conveying a message, while at the same time using correct spelling. The best part is that the teacher admitted that had the student used punctuation, they would have been given a higher score.
