Apr 11th 2008 7:48PM Sadly, I really want one of these so I can get some work done on B.A.R.T., and oh yeah definitely hit up Engadget. If I say I'll watch Techzilla on it does that get me some points too?

Compal: 8.9-inch Dell laptop coming in June for less than $499 {Engadget}
Apr 9th 2008 4:35PM No one in this thread understands what "Linux" is. The Linux kernel is actually a pretty nice kernel, and the GNU tools are great for what they do. The desktop environments (KDE, GNOME) and the gui system in general (X) are just terrible and ugly. For servers (non gui), or embedded/portable/custom systems (custom gui for specific tasks), the kernel can be used quite effectively. In fact, were it not for the GPL license, all us OS X users might be using a linux based system instead of a BSD based system.
IK's StompIO: the software amp without all the software dependency {Engadget}
Jan 24th 2008 2:05PM I just got a GuitarPort XT a couple weeks ago and I'm loving it (although I kinda regret not researching the toneport as well as I'd like to have the XLR input and I don't use the online stuff much). I'm really a newb when it comes to getting a good tone, I used to just turn on the amp and play so I'm on system overload with all the different amps and setups.

Jan 24th 2008 2:01PM Unfortunately that's not a stomp box so it wouldn't really be suitable for live performances in most cases. Line 6 makes something similar called the Pod that is quite a bit cheaper.

Wave power to be put to use in California {Engadget}
Dec 18th 2007 7:18PM Um, maybe because this is not an environmentally friendly idea. These "wave farms" can cause all sorts of unnatural tidal affects, which lead to premature erosion and damage to coastal eco-systems such as tide pools and reefs.
