Are you the type of person who always asks what time it is? Do you have a clock on your desk even though you have a clock staring you right in the face every time you look at your computer? Do you always wonder why your office is so darn cold? Do you need a [...]

Review: Logitech Z Cinéma Advanced Surround Sound System
When I first saw these speakers I thought that they looked great, and the fact that they came with a remote was a bonus. Let’s see if they stand up to my standards in regards to audio quality and compatibility with my favorite OS, Linux. In the package was a sub woofer with two satellite speakers, [...]
The Race for MY Low Cost Machine
Have you ever been sitting at brink of buying a new device and been totally perplexed as to what device to buy? I am sitting at this point. The ultra low cost machines are the ones that really excite me at this point. You can buy so much power for less than what I paid [...]
Review: Pur Sleep Aroma Therapy for CPAP Users
First, before we get into today’s review, I want to talk a little about Sleep Apnea. Sleep Apnea is when you stop breathing while you sleep. The worst part of Sleep Apnea is a lot of people who have it don’t even know it. Symptoms of sleep apnea can include: Loud snoring. Waking up gasping [...]
Review: Coghlan’s LED Micro Lantern
Back in the day, about 20 years ago when I was in Boy Scouts, options for a lightweight lantern were rare; you either took along a big fluorescent lantern or a propane lantern. Lanterns are better than flashlights because they provide a circle of light around your entire work area instead of just one spot. [...]

DLO StrapWrap Review
[Ed. note: Just for fun - leave a count in the comments section of how many times the word "strap" appears in this review, and I will choose a random winner (of an equally random prize) from the correct entries on April 3rd. Update: questionfear is the winner!] As summer is approaching, I often don’t [...]
Review: USB AAA Battery Charger with Torch from USB Fever
Have you ever needed to give your cell phone a little bit of juice to get through a call? Were you near a socket when you needed to do it? If not, then you might wish that you had carried the USB AAA Battery Charger with Torch from USB Fever with you. It’s now become [...]
Review: ZaReason UltraLap SR
When I came across ZaReason, I was impressed. Selling machines that have Linux installed by default isn’t new, and many companies support only Linux now, but it’s ZaReason’s service and the communication I received all during the review process that impressed me the most. ZaReason cares about their customers and always puts them first, even [...]
Why Walmart isn’t the place for Linux
A lot has been said this week about Walmart pulling the Everex gPC and Cloudbook from their stores. Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols has a interesting article on desktoplinux.com regarding his views. What it boils down to is the people who typically shop at WalMart are probably not even capable of determining what OS their computer is [...]
Review: USB Optical Ultra Thin Mouse from USB Fever
Ever wish you had a mouse with you to use in your hotel room with your laptop, but never took one because of the bulk? This may just be the mouse for you. Measuring in at 1.2 cm or for those of us in the US, 0.4 inches, it’s very thin. Almost too thin.
Freedom…from WIRES. Best Buy’s Insignia Pilot 8GB Preview

However, Best Buy, yes you heard me right, Best Buy has come out with a store brand MP3/Video Player that supports Bluetooth A2DP Stereo Headphones! Also, this MP3 Player is a Open Source fanatics [...]
Ubuntu has Brainstorm
Now alot of people will ask, what’s so different about Linux that makes it better then Windows? Well, alot of things really, but I think the best thing is the community. Ubuntu listens to the community and it’s even listening more now that Ubuntu has setup the Ubuntu Brainstorm website. Brainstorm is where Ubuntu users [...]

I received the UltraLapSR today and here’s the unboxing! It took a while to get here, but that’s because Zareason does the right thing and thinks of the customer first! Walk with me as I unbox this beauty! Building Linux hardware so you don’t have to. I like that!
VIA Artigo Review
We’ve all seen the mini PCs like Lenovo’s Thinkcenter Desktops and Dell’s small desktops. We’ve also seen other PCs about the size of a external CD rom. Now, we have one that’s about half that size. VIA had brought out the Artigo Builders Kit. The motherboard on the Artigo is about the size of a [...]
