Lets see; He’s three. He paints better than you. Of course, since it’s me, I’m gonna go ahead and call it fake.

Two?!? I could swear it had seven!

*blows dust off blog* Well, how have you been? If you haven’t noticed, It’s been a while. Oh right… The computer.   It’s called the Xi3 Modular. “Modular?” You ask? Why yes, it has three boards that will could probably be upgraded forever. Hmm! I like the sound of that. Oh and look, It’s so cute, cuddly, and aluminium-ey.

The tiny Xi3 Modular has one board with two AMD Athlon 64 processors and the RAM, while two I/O boards handle all connectivity and input/output requirements. They say that, by changing these boards you can “upgrade this computer forever” to save money and resources.

It’s designed to be mounted damn near everywhere too. Lets see, dual display support with 1080p DVI, VGA, HDMI, LVDS and DP output. Oh yeah, it also has 6 USB and 2 SATA ports, Xi3p as well as PCIe.

$849. Booyah.

It sucks. At least compared to this, it does.

Bose is the latest, launching what it claims is its first single-ear Bluetooth headset. The aural implant carries the family name and touted audio quality / proprietary technology, but functionality-wise, it’s not much different than your run-of-the-mill earpiece. Of course, that branding carries a lot of weight with some folks, and for them, plan on paying just shy of $150 (before tax) when it comes out late November.

I really don’t know about this. Don’t get me wrong, I like Bose and all, they make good speakers, and one kickass television, but it’s just plain expensive. I digress. Its the branding folks, All about branding.

Have you ever thought to yourself, “Gee, there’s no good electronic jazz-fusion music around. Where can I find some?”

Since you probably have, I have good news! Hailing from the wonderful city of Cape Town, South Africa, comes the downtempo/nu jazz/other weird genre band Goldfish, composed of the duo Dom Peters on the double bass, keyboard, and groove box, and David Poole on the alto and tenor sax, samplers, and the occasional vocal part. You may recognize them from their song “Fort Knox”, which was featured in the Kia Soul commercial with the hamsters. (The first one, not the one with “The Choice is Yours” by Black Sheep)

Minor publicity aside, this band has seen very little attention here in the states, though quite popular in their home country from what I understand, as well as having a name in some European circles. For anyone who has listened to their stuff, they know this lack of acknowledgment is criminal. (Unless they’re hipsters, in which case we’ll have to agree to disagree)

They currently have three full-length albums out: 2006′s Caught in the Loop with such great tracks as “Egyptology” and “Highfalutin,” 2008′s Perceptions of Pacha, with “Hold Tight” and “Soundtracks and Comebacks,” and 2010′s Get Busy Living, which I have not listened to all that much yet. They are a fantastic groups whose name needs to be spread.

Youtube user ericDouglace has declared a war on the Bieber haters. So while he may have started something he can’t finish, I’ve got to give him credit; He got well over 121,000 views in one day! Just listen to the awards-

So, yeah. This will definitely end well.

It’s a surge strip that saves energy. How does it do it’s thing?

One port serves as the master, while the other five are master-controlled.When the master device is turned on, the other five ports are activated. When the master is turned off, power to the master controlled devices is canceled.

So, don’t plug in anything you may need in with something you don’t- Like a fan in the master, and a television in another port.

Hmmm. I dont know about those things growing all over me. Oh! I’ve got a plan!

This is what you do; make the computer out of PC parts, jam it into an amazon shipping box, install Snow Leopard, and call it a day. Guess the cost. $900. Yes, $900!

Foregoing the sleek aluminum casing with the gigantic Apple logo emblazoned on the side, Kalvin used the Amazon shipping box that all the computer parts he ordered came in. While this hackintosh won’t win any beauty contests, its somewhat of an oxymoron — a high-end computer with the lowest-end exterior possible. Might we suggest you use some spare Apple stickers to decorate it?

Computer specs don’t skimp either, with a 2.66Ghz Core i5 CPU, 1TB hard drive, 8GB of 1,333Mhz DDR3 RAM and XFX Radeon HD 5770 1GB DDR5 graphics. The entire thing of course runs Snow Leopard. Something tells me that Kalvin and co. won’t have any problems running challenging applications like Adobe After Effects or even playing some Portal on their new cardboard mac.

Yay fire hazard!
