Texas Instruments TI-30XIIS (WHAT!? A CALCULATOR)


Everyone has some nerd inside them. So today, I feel like spitting out a review to quite possibly one of the best calculators ever made (Excuse my crappy intro, let me try again)

A Revisit of the Skullcandy Ti Headphones

A while ago, I wrote a review about 3 different sets of headphones/earphones. At the end, I gave a rather low score to the Skullcandy Ti headphones (notably the '08 models). Those broke (crappy hinge snapped on me) and I sent them in for warranty (thank God for the lifetime warranty). A few long weeks later, a box came. Inside it, I noticed a new pair of green/black Skullcandy Ti headphones ('09 model). I decided to test them out, and was blown away at the quality of sound as compared to the black '08 models. The bass is much deeper and they feel much sturdier.

Therefore, I would like to rate the '09 Ti black/green headphones a 3.5/5!

Razer Salmosa


As far as mice go, the major brands are Logitech and Microsoft. However, when you plan to include "gaming" into the whole concept of buying mice, everything changes. A third brand opens, revealing it's name as Razer (No, I am not a fanboy, I'm planning on buying a Logitech G9 shortly). Anyways, to make a long story short, Woot.com had the Razer Salmosa (Retailed @ $40) for $13.37. I figured,"Hell, I'll pick one up". Sure enough, about a week later, I got a new mouse in the mail.

UPDATE

Sorry for not creating any new reviews lately. It's finals week around here and things are getting tough. I am working on getting new authors and some more reviews up soon. Hang in there.

Songbird


Anymore, media players are everywhere. You have I-Tunes, Zune Player, VLC, RealPlayer, WinAmp, FooBar, and the list goes on. One, however, has been hiding in the dark and is not heard of often... Songbird. Songbird is an Open-Source media player with Firefox integration. You guessed it, Open-Source = Add-ons and Windows/Mac/Linux support!

Skullcandy Ti, Lowrider, and Full Metal Jacket Reviews



I've been a huge Skullcandy fan since my first pair of Smokin' Buds. These were my first pair of headphones actually past the ever-so-popular apple earbuds (those POS ones that come with that new I-Pod). My love for these headphones grew as they caused my life to become engulfed in the hard-rock genre of music. I don't know what caused it, but I eventually had an urge to upgrade to a higher set of headphones. Upon looking around, I never really found a pair of in-ear headphones that I liked. Either something in their design was flawed (such as a huge driver enclosure, or those wires made to wrap around your head (gah! I cant stand those)). Anyways, this is when I came across my second pair of Skullcandy headphones: the 9mm Full Metal Jackets.

Razer Lycosa Review


Whelp, about 4 months ago, the time came for me to get a new keyboard, and to be honest, it took a lot of research. I finally narrowed it down between 4 keyboards: The Cyborg (saitek), The Sidewinder X6 Keyboard (Microsoft), the G15 Keyboard (Logitech), and the Lycosa Keyboard (Razer). After some major reviewing and suggestion after that, it became a battle between the G15 and the Lycosa. Both had similar features: macros, light up keys, rear ports. The G15, however, had its unique lcd panel while the Lycosa had an any key macro. I ended up going with the Razer product.
