  1. Review - Mp3tag

    2.42 (Oct 26, 2008)

    I have found this to be the MP3 tag editor of choice. It uses very little resources and has exhaustive options to organize your MP3 library relatively easy. If there's one glaring issue I've had with MP3tag since its inception it's the _very small_ toolbar icons. It would be nice to have larger icons available with text as an option.

  2. Review - CPU-Z

    1.40.5 (Jul 6, 2007)

    I've been using CPU-Z for years. It's one utility that is nearly indispensable. I'm glad it works under Vista 32 & 64 (I tried under both).

    One change I would like to see is the ability to read core voltages accurately for the C2D processors. And although load time has improved, I wish it would load faster.

    My thanks to Franck Delattre (author) for this excellent program!

  3. Comment - Murdoch: 'We intend to charge for all our news Web sites'

    1.40.5 (Aug 6, 2009 - 11:58 AM)

    FOX News advertises itself as "Fair and Balanced." It's incredible just how unfair and unbalanced it is. Anyone who is looking for even a shred of integrity would best find their news from another source. It is people like Murdoch who have corrupted news and made it based more on entertainment value than objectivity.

  4. Comment - New legislation could postpone February DTV transition

    1.40.5 (Oct 16, 2008 - 3:12 AM)

    Like an increasing number of Americans, I get my news from the Internet. I watched the 3rd presidential streamed live from C-Span. I haven't watched TV in years and I simply don't miss it. I know of several others who have done the same. I've always said that if it comes between my Internet connection and TV, the former will take priority, and it has.

  5. Comment - Arthur C. Clarke (1917 - 2008)

    1.40.5 (Mar 20, 2008 - 5:08 PM)

    At a time when the Cold War nearly froze relations between our two great countries (US & USSR), Clarke always fostered cooperation and communication so we could achieve greater discovery than we alone could. Clarke saw the big picture, the whole of humanity working together to build a better world.

    I thoroughly recommend viewing both 2001 and its lesser known sequel, 2010. Be sure to also check out his books at Amazon or another bookseller. They take you on fascinating journeys throughout our universe.

  6. Comment - iPhone and the Death of the Mobile Web

    1.40.5 (Jul 7, 2007 - 9:08 PM)

    Am I the only one who would rather just use a desktop or laptop PC to do my PC chores? Ask yourself, do you NEED a device like this? Like the iPod, I consider the iPhone a novelty. I'm a computer tech by trade and though I love to tinker and stay abreast of the latest technologies, I like to also find time to relax and get away from these type of devices that supposedly bring more convenience but end up increasing workload.

  7. Comment - Blockbuster Giving Netflix Users Free Rentals

    1.40.5 (Dec 7, 2006 - 11:50 AM)

    I have tried both Blockbuster and Netflix for several months but will be sticking with Blockbuster because of their better customer service. For example, one time I received a bad DVD from Netflix. They returned it but they didn't ship the replacement until they received the damaged one back. In the same situation BB cross-shipped the replacement at the same time I returned the bad rental. Also, BLOCKBUSTER DOESN'T THROTTLE CUSTOMERS LIKE NETFLIX. THIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE MORE RENTALS EACH MONTH FROM BLOCKBUSTER. Netflix will actually *penalize* you if you return your rentals right away. This really turned me off them.
