    Update: DIY Router/Firewall Project

      Too Good to be True The whole ‘two machines in one box’ didn’t pan out in the long run. Not that it isn’t perfectly possible; just not on the sparse hardware I attempted to do it on. After a round of updates to both VirtualBox and Windows the network bridging voodoo failed and I…

    Review: Ducky DK9008G2-A PBT

    If you have no idea what a ‘mechanical’ keyboard is and why it is a ‘thing’, I suggest you read through the rather thorough post at Overclockers.net before partaking of this article.

    My only Black Friday purchase was picking up one of these from NewEgg for less than a 1GB GTX 460. Got it installed in my i7 rig and it is blowing away my entire collection. I also picked up a cache of games from Steam for a steal including Metro 2033 and Dirt2. Haven’t download…

  • DIY Virtual Router & Server

    My foray into the world of custom routers and virtualization.

  • Long time no post

    I haven’t posted in a while due to the lack of much to post about and work being rather draining as of late. But as a sign of things to come, I am posting this from my new Nexus One. Yes, I was so intrigued by my Archos 5 that I decided to finally plunge…

  • Money for nothin’…Micro-Transactions come to WoW

    As you may or may not be aware of, Blizzard, the creators of World of Warcraft, have recently made available an in-game mount in the form of the Celestial Steed for the real world price of $25. This practice of charging real money for benefit in a virtual sense has become known as a “micro…
