So you dropped your gadgets - your iPod, your phone or even your PSP into a bucket of water or a drain or left it inside your pocket and it went into the washing machine or when you were in a hurry to go for an interview for a new employment. Before you panic and freak out .. and wanna throw your gadget away - and get a replacement - try this.
Quickly remove all parts and wipe it down with a static cloth and then with a bowl of rice leave it overnight and hope it soaks up all the wetness. Leave your gadgets or device for another few days.. and pray for the best results - never try - never know right?
So is Windows 7 really that good..?? i have been hearing ppl going on and on about it for the past 1 month - in fact the local yard sale here have them on sale on facebook yard sale at half the price of the original but claimed to be a genuine product key. I guess some ppl don’t need sleep pills to sell illegal copies of this Operating System.
So yes.. how good is Windows 7 ? Is Windows 7 really a Windows Vista release 2 as many had said..and that you can find many features that you find on Vista on Windows 7? If so, why are ppl saying so many bad stuff about Vista and good stuff about Windows 7? I still have the Vista from 1.5 yrs ago, when i bought my laptop from Walmart and it can be a pain sometimes.. but i’m pretty happy with it except for a few things. We are thinking of upgrading to Windows 7 as a family - which will cost us about $350 with 2 license or something to that effect..?? I don’t know the details .. but i’ve heard the spouse talk about it. So there.. i will update you .. when i get my Windows 7 with prices.
Geek explosion! Profiles in History is set to auction off an Apple Macintosh Plus, model serial number M0001 (upgraded from a Mac 128), which was given to Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry by Apple. Man, tell people that George Lucas wrote the first Star Wars draft on this thing and you’ve got the trifecta.
It’ll be auctioned off on October 8 and 9, and it’s got a surprisingly low estimated sale price between $800 and $1,200. That low? Do you guys know that this is a combo of Apple nerdery and Star Trek nerdery? You might want to add a zero to the end of that estimate.

While everyone can afford a desktop computers because it is a necessity.. one have to think twice before getting a xbox 360. But as of August 28, 2009, you can now afford the xbox 360 elite because of a price reduction of a $100. This was officially announced by Microsoft. At $299 - it is definitely a must by for this Christmas - I am wondering if they had to reduce the price because of the PS3 .. but i prefer the xbox 360 to the PS3 anytime.
The Arcade remains at the same price of $199 and the Pro will be at $249 instead of $299 and while supplies last.. they are not making anymore of the Pro .. so i hear.
Noting that the announced price reduction would lure new buyers, and simplify its product mix for manufacturers, retailers and customers, Dennis said: “It really makes the decision for consumers a lot easier. They’re either price conscious and they gravitate toward the Arcade or they the want the full Xbox 360 experience.”
While Xbox is the second-ranking gaming console in the US, after Nintendo’s $249-priced Wii, the sales of Xbox have been comparatively more robust in 2009 - with a 17 percent rise in the US sales, Xbox has been the only console in positive territory!
My stone sink has to hold since Sony Corp will have a cheaper version of the PS3 console at a ridiculous cut prices a few days ago. The new slim version of the PS3 will be launched in the first week of September, priced at 299 euros in Europe and $299 in the United States. Sony’s Chief Executive Kazuo Hirai said at the Gamescom video game trade show in Cologne, Germany. Normally one can get a new PS3 was $400 … so you do the numbers. This Christmas i bet this is the machine everyone wants for their kids, boyfriends and even husbands.
A laptop left on a sofa has been blamed for causing a fire which killed a man in Vancouver.
According to the Coroners Service of British Columbia, the fire – which happened earlier in 2009 – was caused when the lithium-ion battery in the laptop overheated because of the lack of ventilation and set fire to the sofa.
The coroner – who declined to name the make of laptop – pointed to prior incidents of laptop batteries overheating.
Dog owners would love this gadget .. afterall, some of us treat our dogs like our sons and daughters right..?? and you are the mama.
Depending on what breed you have, dogs can be quite expressive. Sure, they can’t speak, but they can express what’s going in their little minds. What would you say to a machine that could record and translate your dog’s barks while you were away?
The dog translator works in a bunch of different ways. First, it functions like the original Bowlingual. It’s able to interpret six different moods from your dog. It comes with a paw-shaped remote control and an LCD screen. The remote also contains a bunch of different pre-recorded phrases to tell you what is on your dog’s mind.
The Bowlingual Voice has the ability to record what your dog “says”. You can then listen to this when you return from work. This means that you’ll know what happens at home while you are away. Barring the installation of a few webcams, this is probably the easiest way of doing this. Sounds interesting, but we are still confused about what the device can actually do. It’s apparent that it allows the dog to communicate with you thanks to the “translator”. It’s just too bad that you can’t reply to him in the manner of a dog. We would have liked the remote to bark back at Fido.
Joking aside, this sort of technology would really develop greatly if it was used in an open-source way by functioning like Google Translate and people would input their data online. This would enable the translation engine to improve. At some point, you’d get some really interesting results. This device costs about $200 and has just been released in Japan. As for us, we’ll just wait for Google Translate to integrate barks.
Remember this hit the bum game.. with a rubber hammer.. that you can find in the game arcade.. many year ago..?? Yes.. as easy as doing colon cleanse reviews , this game is a no brainer. To hit the bum, give them a good hit on the bum with the rubber hammer provided when they light up. Be quick though! Once a light goes out, the chance to gain a point is lost! There are 3 red lights on the surface of the game. Each lights represents how many lives you have. To start, you have 3 lives. For every two misses, a life is lost. For every life that is lost, a red light will go out. When all lives are lost (no red lights illuminated), the game is over. The LED screen keeps track of your scores. Price : US$29.
Ever since the xbox 360 was on sale .. some years ago, I keep hearing about the red ring of death. I’m kinda surprised that there are some ppl who still donch know that xbox or microsoft warranties this by default. Many customers comes in .. and try to sell them to us for parts in which we would advise them to give a call to Microsoft. They pretty much take care of you . .from the time.. they pick up the call.. and pay for the shippinig and all.
But having said all the above.. I’m sure Microsoft wants to see the death of the Red Ring more than anyone else. Can’t imagine them.. liking the fact that they are paying extras.. for all the shipping and sending out new or refurbished machines. Microsoft began sneaking out Xbox 360s with the smaller, cooler 65 namometer “Falcon” CPU chipset inside when they released the Halo 3 special edition console this past holiday. And while they said it is less prone to the same problem, it’s the next revision of the system codenamed “Jasper” that would elimate the problem once and for all. Jasper will be on sale in August.
Mario Kart Wii was the biggest selling game across the UK, US and Japan last year, shifting nearly 9 million copies. That’s according to a Top Global Markets report - a collaboration between GfK Chart-Track (UK), NPD (US) and Enterbrain (Japan).
Wii Fit came a close second, followed by GTAIV, Super Smash Bros. Brawl and COD: World at War.
Grand Theft Auto IV led the pack back in August, when the only other change had been Guitar Hero III in place of Call of Duty: World at War.
Sales across all regions were up 11 per cent on 2007, with the UK market in particular noting a dramatic increase of 26 per cent. Japan, however, dipped by 13 per cent.
“Because of this amazing growth and coupled with the downturn currently being experienced in Japan, the UK market has for the first time overtaken Japan as the number two world market,” said GfK Chart-Track’s Dorian Bloch in a statement.
