Video demo: IE9 with NVIDIA Ion hardware acceleration
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No Comments
We'll soon live in an age when netbooks have both CPUs and GPUs and it will be grand. Unicorns and rainbows will dance off of our screens in harmony -- and Internet Explorer might become relevant again. The video after the jump shows what IE9 is capable of when a next-generation Nvidia Ion GPU is paired with an Intel Atom CPU verses a standard netbook with an Atom all by itself. The differences are obvious and makes a solid case for Internet Explorer. But most of us will probably visit the International Space Station before setting IE as our default browser even if it renders graphics faster.

Review: Motorola CLIQ XT
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No Comments
It can be said that Motorola just got its groove back. The Droid is probably one of the best phones out there, followed by the Devour, and they're constantly releasing a few good models every few weeks, which is better than some manufacturers can say. They've hit on a strong formula: build a nice phone, put Android on it, sell a few hundred thousand. Repeat. While the CLIQ XT isn't Motorola's best phone, it follows Moto's not-so-secret recipe without shaming the chef.

New FedEx truck: it’s electric!
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No Comments
Good on FedEx, for doing this. The USPS has been talking about going electric for their fleet, and it makes sense. After all, they put massive amounts of miles on their vehicles, and that's got to make for a pretty serious carbon foot print.

Scientist: Don’t bother going green because there’s nothing we can do to save the planet
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No CommentsWell, I hate to be the one to break this news to y'all, but here we are. You know the "green" movement, where companies try to say things like, "Oh, our products are more safe for the environment than our competitors' products"? I don't want to say it's complete nonsense, but the scientist who devised the Gaia theory—our planet is an organism, and we should do our best to ensure its survival—has just said that there's no chance in hell that we're going to save the planet. His advice? "Enjoy life while you can." So, so amazing.

ATI Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 Edition: Are 6 monitors better than 1?
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No CommentsLast week at PAX East, Nvidia showed off for the first time its GTX 480. Reviews were kind, but noted that the card runs at approximately 8 million degrees, and that the performance isn't as crazy as you'd expect for the $500 you're going to pay—an ATI Radeon 5870 is nearly as good, for $100 cheaper. So, make your own decisions! That's part of the fun of PC gaming: spending weeks on Newegg worrying over motherboard combinations and the like. Anyhow, ATI has a new card on the block today, the Radeon HD 5870 Eyfinitiy 6 Edition.

Posted on March 31, 2010 | No Comments
It's here. It's finally, finally here. After countless rumor-fueled false starts and delays, the Android 2.1 update has finally started rolling out to Verizon Droid owners.

Justice? 80,000 Americans facing copyright-related lawsuits
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No CommentsWe haven't really progressed beyond the year 2004, have we? With respect to copyright news, I mean. The latest: the "US Copyright Group" has filed suit against 20,000 BitTorrent users, with a cool 30,000 lawsuits now pending. If you total all the various different "Hollywood" (you know what I mean) lawsuits, that means that 80,000 Americans now face some sort of traffic-lawsuit.
