A colleague reviewer at Madshrimps has build a community website for hardware enthusiasts around the world, www.hwbot.org allows
users to post results of their favorite benchmarks and have their scores ranked and rewarded depending on benchmark and product
popularity. The website has grown continuously since its initial release. With close to 20.000 active overclockers it's the ideal
platform to launch and market any overclocking competition; In the attached .PDF you can see how the competition can be customized
and tailored to fit any design pattern. With the support of results moderator and a strict rules set the burden of checking validity
of scores is diminished. http://hwbot.org/hwbot.post.do?postId=1138

Verbatim are a company well known for their optical media but they also make a range of other PC related goodies, from hard drives and speakers to computer mice and even printer toner and in this case the rather nice looking keyboard and mouse combo we’ll be looking at today.

It seems in this day that every company under the sun has their very own media player with various features, but how can you differentiate them? We're here to try to help! I was at work when a buddy of mine asked me which Media Player device he should buy in order to play all his content. I thought for a moment and then realized how badly even I needed something to compare. This will be a living guide, in that we will constantly be adding devices to it. If you have or know of a media player not listed below, please let us know in the comments below!

Cloud computing has been around for a while now, but because of the initial startup investments, a lot of small businesses have not yet made the jump to this new technology. In some cases, this may be a wise decision, because the tools and resources the cloud offers might not be necessary in such a small office. However, the cloud has made it possible for SMBs to access powerful tools and services – enough that it’s actually possible for them to compete on some level with much larger companies

The easiest way to get yourself some faster network transfer rates is to throw a Gigabit switch into the mix. That's what I'm looking to do today with the Edimax ES 5500G 5 port gigabit switch. Is it worth the money? Does it give good transfer rates? That's what we're here to find out.

Foxconn has brought us to the table the latest generation of Intel Atom CPUs, by using the small Nano PC chassis which features about the same layout inside as the barebones we have tested from them in the past. The system power consumption is very low, temperatures are good in load and the noise generated is decent. Only thing that needs to be fixed to make this product fully functional is the VGA driver which in its current state offers low performance in both 2D and 3D environments, and Intel does not offer any support for x64 OSes.

The TEW-818DRU is the next iteration after the TEW-812DRU (2nd revision) and features increased coverage, better wireless speeds and two USB ports for connecting additional storage devices. TRENDnet proposes an alternative DD-WRT open-source firmware for it which we can flash with ease; while the current open-source version is not 100% stable and the USB storage on DD-WRT is not working properly at the moment, we are hoping for a revised variant in the near future in order to fix these issues.

The Corei5 was just introduced about 2 weeks ago and iBuyPower was gracious enough to send me over a complete system for review. The Corei5 is the new budget CPU and I’ve put it up against my current system with a C2Q9650 in it that also has double the ram and a better performing video card. Will that make a difference, or is the new architecture of the Corei5 better overall? So I’m looking at this in terms of an upgrade from my own system, or any other C2Q system really
