It’s Christmas Eve Day. Have you gotten all your Christmas shopping out of the way? Although a rather staggering number of people purchased their gifts online this year(myself included), I’m sure there’s still a fair chunk of you who haven’t yet made your way to the store. Maybe you’re waiting for a last minute deal or two. Maybe...

To be fair, this one’s a little late. Probably would have been a good idea to get it posted earlier in the month. Still, there’s some valuable information here – it shouldn’t be discounted just because it’s a little dated. Anyway, enough rambling; let’s get right to the point. Christmas is nearly upon us. Like every year, the...

Another quick tip for everyone today. The Internet can be a dangerous place. Cyber-criminals are getting smarter; the tools they use to infect other systems are becoming more sophisticated.

Just a quick tip for you today, folks – a bit of troubleshooting for some of the more finicky programs and games you’ll be running on your computer.

Eventually, your battery’s going to die. If you follow the best practices on this list, you can keep things running for just a bit longer.Don’t fully discharge the...

There is a particularly vile breed of scum populating the corners of the blogosphere. These men and women haven’t got a single shred of originality between them – yet somehow they continue to come up with new, regular, and fresh content for their blogs. That it’s not theirs is just a minor technicality – what the original authors...

Just a quick one for you folks today. Some time ago, I was at a friend’s place. We were about to do a bit of gaming, so I pulled out my laptop, meaning to connect to her wireless. Unfortunately, she couldn’t actually remember her wireless key – nor could her family. Now, ordinarily, this problem could be solved simply by connecting to the...

So, you’re showing a friend a video on YouTube – it’s one you’ve seen several times before, and you still can’t get enough of it – and just when it’s getting to the good part, it cuts out, and skips straight to the end. A bit frustrating, isn’t it? Thankfully, the issue’s actually fairly easy to fix –...

Just a quickie for you today, folks. We’re going to talk about PC gaming. Specifically, the hardware side of it.
