I’ve never heard of Mede8er reviewed over in the UK, so who knows if it will make it over here. The cost seems a bit high for what it does, and we can’t actually see any action shots from the reviewer…but it’s Sunday after all. It supports all current video codecs: MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 ASP (DivX, XviD), MPEG-4 AVC (H.264, […]

Read moreI know Michael will be super excited about this. I’m very curious to learn more about RemoteFX given the popularity of the usage of the Concurrent Remote Desktop Sessions in Windows7 and previous versions.

The board is small, low powered and does not have a single fan on it. Don’t confuse this for a Clarkdale or Sandy Bridge system however, […]
Read moreI have a few take aways from this impressive report of how ESPN did in its broadcast of the BCS Championship game last night, where it broke the record for most viewers on a cable channel broadcast. Mainly, I hope this will quiet some of the talk how online streaming video HURTS television broadcasters. Quite impressive numbers and I would […]
Read moreThis is a nice looking case, but it’s odd that the review didn’t mention exactly how much it costs (yet price was listed as a con)–odd. Anyhow, a quick google search found it anywhere from $400-600! Quite a range for a high end HTPC case, but as you would expect with a 7″ touch screen. Not so very often we […]
