Big Bruin - The Thermaltake Armor+ VH6000BWS full tower chassis will not frustrate, and will not disappoint. There are plenty of tool-less features included to simplify the installation process, and the only components that required a screwdriver were the motherboard and power supply. The design of the case is slick and attractive, but doesn't go over the top. The simple external styling is complemented by a spacious, well laid out interior that will show through the large side panel window when fully assembled.

Bit Tech - "EVGA offers a truly excellent overclocker with an unrivaled warranty and support, and in some ways it does offer things outside of the standard "feature-rich motherboards" that compete everywhere else. Not everyone needs six SATA, or cares about hippy power saving hoo-har. But given the lack of performance we can't get to "GRRRR brute force no BS mobo!!" because it's actually rather flaccid until you beat it with a stick.

VIA Arena - "If you want to be controversial and slightly nasty, you could say that the second halfof 2008 is make or break for VIA in their quest to rule the ultra mobile space. But that is a little overly dramatic and if shear volume of design wins is anything to go by, VIA can already be called the top-hitter. So far VIA has done very well for themselves with their C7-M part found in some of the most popular UMPC and mini-note models available, along with a slew of copy-cat versions of less well-known models. But now the Intel Atom is just starting to hit the market in ultra mobile designs, while VIA's new Nano processor bids for design wins against Intel's new mobile part behind the scenes. 

eWeek  - Industry and investor concerns about the health of Apple's Chief Executive Steve Jobs have not dimmed more than a month after he appeared dramatically thinner at the firm's annual developers' conference, The New York Post said on Monday.

While blogs and industry watchers had wondered whether 53-year-old Jobs was suffering complications from, or a reappearance of, the pancreatic cancer cured by surgery nearly four years ago, Apple had said he was fighting a "common bug" and was taking antibiotics. Part of the reason for the concern over Jobs' health is that Apple has no succession plan in place, the paper said.

I4U - "Today we are taking a look at a fantastic game for the iPhone called Aurora Feint The Beginning. The game is one of the free iPhone Apps you can get from the iTunes App Store. If this game was something you paid for it would be worth the money.

Aurora Feint The Beginning is a fantastic video game and I would have gladly paid money for it. The game makes great and innovative use of the accelerometer inside the iPhone to take puzzle games and turn them upside down (and side to side). The game at first glance looks a lot like Bejeweled that you might have played on the PC, but offers so much more."

Tweaktown - "Rejoice! More shiny goodies have graced my doorstep this week. This one takes the form of the NZXT Sentry LX Dual bay Fan controller LCD unit; designed with the sole purpose of making my computer infinitely more awesome than 14 yr old neighbours, despite the fact he’ll still kick your ass at Quake/Unreal/Team Fortress. The low down on this puppy is 5x3pin fan connectors, 5xthermistors (that’s temperature sensors) and 2x5.12” bays of LCD goodness."

Tweak News - When Thermaltake released the original Armor case a couple years ago, it was embraced by the enthusiast community for its myriad of features and quality craftsmanship at a reasonable price (see the Tweaknews review HERE ). Today, the popular Armor series continues to evolve with new, refined models being released to appeal to an even wider audience. For those users who don't require a full tower case but still want all the goodies that the Armor provides, Thermaltake has released the Armor MX. It has a lot in common with its big brother but in a more compact mid-tower size. I'll be the first one to admit that I enjoy working with large full tower cases, but the practicality of a mid-tower is hard to beat. So without further ado, let's take a walk around the Armor MX.

Think Computer - It has been a while since the original iPhone was released and still there are products coming out for it. As far as cases go I've seen quite a few. It seemed that they were either really bulky, but provided good protection or very stylish and provided little protection. Well the Wave case from Griffin seems to provide good protection, while still looking good. Let's take a look...

Virtual Hideout - Though setup was definitely not as painless as the last product, the performance, compatibility, and acceptable thermal performance of this unit makes it a winner in my book. While it’s not something I would claim essential – an item which could make your computing experience infinitely better, I am saying that this unit is a good one to keep in mind. Especially, if it’s on sale, and let’s face it – the inclusion of Avast! Anti-Virus Home edition is a nice touch, and should you ever drop this drive while it’s containing mission critical data, the coupon for $200 off recovery from Disk Doctors will more than make up for the cost of the unit. In short, this product easily wins EagleTech another Approved award

Tech Lounge - Picking out a video card should be a little more exciting than finding the cheapest one on the, er, "shelf" and going about your build. Unfortunately for now, the available 4870s are all stock. Performance and profiles being identical, you gotta check out boring stuff like warranties. VisionTek goes farther than other ATI partners with a limited lifetime warranty, but they really like the limited section.

Digital Trends - "Exercise-oriented video games aren't new, but Wii Fit is certainly the most technically advanced one yet. Fun games like snowboarding, Hula Hoop, and tightrope keep it from being tedious. The ingenious Balance Board tracks your center of gravity, and although we're skeptical about its fitness evaluation criteria, a few weeks of use has noticeably improved our balance. We wish you could save your own workout routines, and we advise against taking it too seriously as a fitness tool, but overall we're impressed with Wii Fit, and the Balance Board has lots of potential as a controller."

Techware Labs - Watch first hand the dedication which our TechwareLabs staff has to bring you real testing of products. When we received the BreathKey Digital Breath Alcohol Tester we knew the only way to truly test this product was to get drunk. Without hesitation three of our staff volunteered to test this product. See the results in our daring video footage of the testing in progress.
