If you take a look at the Karotz Smart Rabbit it is cute, quirky and would look good on just about any desk. But what is the Karotz? And is it really useful? Karotz is a Wi-Fi connected robot that can read your RSS feeds, Twitter, Facebook, tell you the weather, wake you up in the morning and much more. Through the Karotz website you are able to load applications on to your Karotz. While currently the “Appz” list is small is it always growing. We’ve had our Karotz Smart Rabbit in the office for about 3 weeks now, read on the see if it has been useful to us.

This past weekend we had the pleasure of attending Pittco’s Iron Storm XIII Lan Party! This 42 hour day event hosted about 150 gamers and started April 20 and concluded on April 22nd. They had official tournaments for Counter-Strike: Source, League of Legends, Starcraft II, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Halo Reach and many more. Besides just the tournaments there was quite a lot of gaming going on as well as other fun. Read on to see what the event was all about!

There has always been a sizeable gap between inkjet and laser printers in terms of both speed and quality. Laser printers were always faster and inkjets always had superior print quality. While we've been able to depend on these age-old truisms for a long time, things have become less black-and-white in recent years. Inkjets have become faster, and laser printers are able to produce much higher-quality photo and colour prints. The price difference between the two types has also decreased through the years. The cheapest laser all-in-one in this test costs about as much as the most expensive inkjet all-in-one.
Now Epson and HP come with the claim that their models in our current test are up to 50 percent more cost-efficient in use than their laser-powered counterparts. Epson doesn't pull any punches and even claims that their inkjet in this test is just as fast as a laser printer. Bold claims, which we will gladly put to the test.
As always, a link would be greatly appreciated!

Once in a while Team Madshrimps gets invited to attend a Team Overclocking event. Is it because people like us for who we are? Because of our looks? The knowledge we can share? Well to be honest we don't care about the previous. Most important thing on our own list is the abundant presence of free food and drinks. Secondly if the event is related to torturing PC Hardware, then we don't mind a long drive. Wickedly enough after each event, we get invited to the next upcoming one. So at least we must be doing something good. Time to get in the HWBot company war (in reality it's Massman's dad) and start the drive towards the 3rd EOS event at the cute town, called Heilbronn in Germany.

It seems everyone these days has a smartphone. With the popularity of the iPhone, abundance of Android devices, and the marketing of Windows 7 phones it is unlikely that most people will choose a plain phone over a smartphone. The driving force behind all of the awesome smartphones are the apps. Because of course a smartphone is just a phone without the apps. Summer has just started so here are our favorite apps to make the best out of your summer!

Purchased new from Amazon for only $289 with free shipping, but prices have dropped even more in the last few weeks. Now you can buy it for about $260 shipped. These TV's were $500 when they first came out! The packaging is adequate and nice looking in the usual Sony fashion, but we ran in to an odd problem while unboxing the TV. It zapped me! It seems like whatever packing foam Sony used created a static charge on the TV itself. Actually, it zapped me twice and quite hard. ITs not that big of deal, just an odd way to start off a new product purchase.
