  1. Review - AOL for Windows

    9.5 Refresh Beta 17ab (0.4337.125.1) (Sep 25, 2009)

    Okay. For those the software satisfies, I imagine it is great. I am just the wrong demographic for that. I don't like it, that doesn't mean you won't.

    I am giving it four stars.

  2. Review - CPU-Tweaker

    1.3 Beta 3 (Sep 25, 2009)

    Maybe it is my OS or I have no idea, but it doesn't work on either of my two laptops, nor my desktop. (Celeron, Centrino, and Q6600).

  3. Review - Google Chrome for Windows

    4.0.213.1 Beta (Sep 25, 2009)

    I love its speed and clean interface.

    I dislike its lack of options and customizations.

    I use it periodically, but Firefox is still my primary.

  4. Review - µTorrent for Windows

    2.0 Build 16625 Beta (Sep 25, 2009)

    Love it! Clean, fast, lots of options, and works how I want it to. I do wish you could export/import settings (or maybe you can and I missed it?) that way when I format or change computers I don't have to pour through them all over again.

  5. Review - BitComet (32-bit)

    1.15 (Sep 25, 2009)

    Terrible program. I much prefer uttorent over this. This program went wrong in too many ways somewhere along the line, and some trackers even block it.

  6. Comment - Even $600 is too much for many gadget geeks to pay for Motorola XOOM

    1.15 (Feb 17, 2011 - 11:18 AM)

    Eh. I dunno about anyone else, but I'm looking forward to pre-ordering the Xoom. And I feel $800 is a more than reasonable price. Whether or not the device itself will deliver to my extremely picky standards - we'll see - but on paper the $800 seems fine to me.

  7. Comment - Egypt's telecommunications blackout crushes citizen journalism

    1.15 (Jan 28, 2011 - 8:12 PM)

    Yes they can? That bill was Senate-passed for the US not too long ago, granting similar powers in ambiguously defined emergencies.

  8. Comment - Social networking will displace corporate e-mail

    1.15 (Nov 12, 2010 - 3:19 PM)

    Do you get paid extra to write ridiculous articles and make outlandish claims?

    For the bulk of what you write, I can generally see your viewpoint, but still disagree.

    In this case, I don't see it at all and I disagree. I'm now going to join the bandwagon that you write to incite conflict or get page views. Unfortunate.

  9. Comment - Verizon announces the Droid X, sequel to the popular Motorola Droid, shipping July 15

    1.15 (Jun 24, 2010 - 10:50 PM)

    Anyone know how much this will be without upgrade or contract?

  10. Comment - A real beta process at work: Mozilla fires up Firefox 3.6 Beta 2

    1.15 (Nov 11, 2009 - 12:47 PM)

    Even though you're probably joking, a part of me kind of agrees :x
