If the rumors circulating around the Internet are true, Apple is about to take on Nintendo and Sony for mobile games dominance. Actually, this war has already been heating up as Apple’s App Store now includes over 15,000 apps for the iPhone and iPod touch–with many of the more popular ones being games–and Apples claims that over half a billion apps have been downloaded from the App store since the App store launched only just over six months ago. Allegedly, the next step for Apple will be to launch a “Premium”

A digital certificate that expired on 1/28 effectively kills the game Gears of War, as users who try to run it receive a “‘You cannot run this game with modified executable code, please reinstall” error. The issue has been traced to the aforementioned expired digital certificate (shown). Obviously since the game was released in Nov. of 2007 for the PC, no one at Epic Games or Microsoft could possibly imagine that anyone would still be playing it 15 months later, right?It’s hard to decided whether to call this

Dell Inc is plotting a foray into the cell phone arena as early as next month, making and selling smartphones to revitalize a business walloped by crumbling PC sales and pitting the firm against Apple, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.

The world's No. 2 maker of PCs, which has been designing prototypes for over a year, is focusing on smartphones — the class of high-end devices that encompasses Apple's iPhone and Research in Motion's Blackberry, the newspaper cited people familiar with the matter as saying. If launched, the phones will be based on Google's Android operating system and Microsoft's Windows Mobile software, it said. One model will even feature a touchscreen, not unlike the iPhone's, the Journal reported.

With more and more mainstream people making the move to an almost pure digital world, central storage and data backup is becoming more and more of an issue.

It took a while; who knows how long those images

Our story yesterday about TigerDirect.com dropping EVGA products from their retail site made it all over the internet yesterday, but today we have cleared up part of the mystery. One of our contacts at EVGA contacted Legit Reviews today and said that we hadn't worded the story correctly. It turns out that EVGA made a business decision to no longer have their products carried by TigerDirect.com. I can't help but notice that this is the second video card company to leave TigerDirect.com in recent months as Palit Multimedia also pulled away from the online retailer back in 2008.

New research out of the University of Manchester in Britain appears to herald the imminent creation of the Cylon race.It appears the structure for computer processors will switch from silicon to carbon. Just like people.It’s not news that graphene (carbon in sheets an atom thick) conducts electricity exceptionally well. But it needs to insulate as well, and until recently, it wasn’t clear it could do the job. The university’s research showed graphene can be modified to insulate. What does that mean? It means
