If you are strictly using your system as an HTPC, I can’t imagine choosing this new bad boy over the wildly popular WD Green 2tb Drives, which run a bit slower but are also super quiet. That being said, Hitachi has always been pretty reliable and may a great (faster) component for your server of choice. DVice Leveraging a […]
Read moreJames over at SlySoft just posted an update to Reclock.

My buddy @GarryWMA posted this link to a youtube clip of the ZuneHD in action, when connected up to a big screen. It’s unclear to me how exactly this is tied into the Xbox360, but they did show the ZuneHD tile on the Xbox blades in the video. Here’s the video, but I’ll also post some pictures in case the […]
Read moreYes! You guys enjoyed the wise thoughts Richard Corliss the other day on why Netflix sucks that I couldn’t help myself from posting his follow up article on how to fix netflix. I personally love his suggestion to find a better post office…because that 2-3 day wait is unbearable. Enjoy! Time But since Netflix lets titles stay out indefinitely, it […]
