What does 2008 hold for the high definition format war?  If you were to look around the Internet lately, most would tell you that nothing good is going to come of it.

So, you got a few Apple gift cards or some extra spending cash, and you’re about to burst with excitement over your upcoming Apple purchase, right?  But wait, MacWorld is just around the corner; could what you’re wanting to purchase become even shinier, prettier, nicer between now and January 15th?  The answer to your question is forthcoming.

If Microsoft thought it had problems with Vista, entirely new problems have cropped up in Windows Home Server.  At least Vista doesn’t go around corrupting and deleting files, as Windows Home Server has been shown to do.

With all of the buzz about global warming it’s easy to forget other simple ways we can improve the environment. Old electronics take a long time to decompose here are some recycling options to keep that gear out of our landfills and some of them are free.

Everyone shrugs off China’s censorship of the internet with a sort of, “Well, it IS China,” attitude. However, what might come as a shock to everyone around the globe is that Australia is jumping on the censorship bandwagon behind the communist country.

With an international team of writers in the US, Philippines, Malaysia, UK and Australia, the sun never sets on BLORGE. With midnight just passed in Sydney, Australia (pictured is a happy snap from this year’s Sydney Harbor Bridge fireworks display), we here at BLORGE would like to wish all of our readers a very happy New Year.

Last time I reviewed the SZ640 based on its hardware alone, if you didn’t read that, do so now and then come back here.  Of course, that review pretty much covered the entire SZ line of computers because the build is standard among all models.  Now it’s time to evaluate the SZ640 strictly from a performance standpoint.

Oh, my. It’s Microsoft. On YouTube. And it’s not that cute ad about the MS iPod redesign. They’re trying to push Live and Vista via YouTube. And leaving comments open. Desperation? Courage? Insanity? You decide.

Often it’s more effective to communicate a series of project schedules visually. In this how-to we’ll create a Gantt chart in Excel that automatically adjusts as project dates change.

The RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) has been fighting a losing battle for years, bringing thousands of lawsuits against ordinary people over illegal file sharing.
