Engadget's recession antidote: win a Mimo UM710 USB monitor!

Feb 12th 2009 1:12PM (Engadget)
I could have my chat and Ventrilo windows open on it while WoW plays full screen! Schweeeet!

To fix the economy, we should all live in tee-pees.

Win a copy of Things for Mac and iPhone

Remember the Milk. Does the job well, but I'm always willing to try something new!

Logio Secure Password Organizer protects your passwords the hard way

Jan 26th 2009 4:28PM (Engadget)
1Password (www.1password.com) is my password management software of choice. The client is Mac only, but they have a web portal that allows you to backup your passwords and then access them from anywhere. Worst case, I only need to remember 2 passwords. Only need 1 password to unlock the encryption if I'm on one of my Macs; plus the login password to the website (yes, they are different) if I'm on a different computer.

There is a built in strong password generator as well. If you wanted, you could generate a 20+ character string a garbage for each site you visit and not have to remember any of them.

... just don't forget those 2 important ones!

Where to find Beyond Good & Evil

May 29th 2008 1:25PM (Joystiq)
It was released at the same time as Prince of Persia, as well as a few other big names. UbiSoft decided to put their advertisement dollars behind Prince of Persia and people just didn't learn about this game until it was gone.

Where to find Beyond Good & Evil

I used to have the PC version, but loaned it to a friend years ago and never got it back (thankfully, I also have the XBox version).

What I'd like to know though, was this ever ported to the Mac or does anyone have experience running the PC version through virtualization?

I'd run out and pick it up again without hesitation if I knew I could play it without dusting off the XBox.

Psystar Open Computer unboxing and hands-on

How does this (or any of the OSX86 projects) deal with updates? Previous articles have stated the automatic update doesn't work -- are you left with a release version of Leopard? Not the ideal solution at all!

Does Apple offer packaged downloads for updates that could be applied?

DoD establishes institute tasked with regrowing body parts

Something is going to go horribly wrong and we're going to have a bunch of soldiers running around with 4 nipples, 3 testicles and 2 of everything we should only have one of! o_O

Robots could replace live bunnies in chemical testing procedures

I find this a dangerously short sighted endeavour. Has nobody though of the consequences of letting these bunnies grow to maturity!? Think of the carnage!

Linus Torvalds calls Apple's file system "utter crap"

Unless you're an average computer user who wants things to "just work", or behave in any reasonably common way between applications. I grew very tired of having to read a HOWTO nearly every time I wanted to do something new in Linux -- hardware or configuration related. After changing to a career in usability it also quickly became clear why Linux will never reach the main stream desktop computer user -- at least until the community comes together and realizes that it isn't about "choices", it's about being usable.
