Tonight, at midnight StarCraft 2 releases.
We hope you've got your copies pre-ordered because the stores are going to be nuts.
If you're not heading out there is still time to download the client from Battle.net and then purchase the digital download once the game is released. Since the price is about the same, we'll take our hard copies.

Some thoughts about the Conficker worm. What is the Conficker worm up to and what does it mean for you? And in our attempts to stop the worm, are we actually creating the ultimate security hole? Some food for thought.

Good speakers are hard to find but, excellent speakers are even harder to come by. Not only are a lot of systems extremely expensive but many of them have limitations on input options, forcing your hand. What if there was a system that you could connect your iPod, PC, gaming console, and TV at the same time, right out of the box? What if it had hardware decoding for DTS and Dolby Digital tracks and was THX certified? What if you wanted all that and more?

In a few days Valves latest creation is released to the world: Left 4 Dead. We've played the demo for both Xbox360 and PC. Granted, we are probably biased to the PC edition, however, we still feel that the PC version is objectively better. On expert it seems more challenging than the console version. In any case, we're impressed with the demo and if you haven't tried it yet, you should. With all the features that have been crammed into L4D and the combination of a intriguing story with solid multiplayer cooperative gameplay, it melds the Half-Life experience with Counter-Strike. We don't expect anything short of exceptional and if the demo is any inclination of what is to come, the game is going to be a must-have for the 2008 holiday season and probably the year. If you haven't checked it out yet, download the demo via Steam (www.steampowered.com) or get it on Xbox LIVE. Official Site: www.l4d.com

Mouse pads and their construction is important to computer users, whether for games or for design purposes, mousepads have two huge factors: size and surface.
