Palo Alto cubik: High-end USB speaker system review
Remember Palo Alto? We had a look at their musik USB powered system a few days ago and were quite impressed. For a mere £50 they delivered surprisingly impressive audio over a USB connection. Well obviously on a £50 system some compromises have to be made so what would a…
Nuance OmniPage 18: Document conversion made fast, flexible and dare we say … fun?
For an academically inclined nerd I have a surprising amount of upper body strength, a fact I attribute solely to lugging weighty tomes regarding 18th century agrarian poetry around campus for three years. But if you already have a sensible exercise regime in place, you might be looking to cut…
Palo Alto musik USB speakers review
Whilst many audiophiles are punching the air right now, enraged at the very mention of USB-powered speakers, for a normal person they are a necessary compromise. Inferior quality audio at a reasonable price and high-levels of convenience. Still it would be nice to not have to skimp on audio fidelity…

Vertus Fluid Mask 3.2 review
Like many people, I do a lot of work with Photoshop. Adobe’s flagship packing is so ubiquitous it’s almost a genericized trademark – like Tippex, Thermos or Heroin. Fun as it is to work with, using masks in Photoshop is a pain and is often the most tedious part of…

HANNspree’s budget priced All-In-On PC
The last time I wrote abut Hannspree, all of two months ago, it was to talk about the launch of its bargain tablet PC, which came in at an astonishingly low £249 – nearly half the price of most of its rivals. We came to the conclusion that while it…
Hector: Ep1 HD – We Negotiate with Terrorists
The iPad’s status as a viable gaming platform is a constant source of debate amongst overly passionate console devotees with empty lives. However as the number of game studios developing for the platform grows it’s harder to argue against the fact that people seem to enjoy playing games on their…
Edifier Sound to Go: Music on the move and at home
If you use a laptop or notebook, but want something better from your sound (as these devices are not well known for their speaker quality), you’re hardly going to cart around a set of speakers, which is why the Sound To Go system from Edifier is such a good idea….
Nintendo at E3: Wii U and endless unanswered questions
Nintendo has just finished its E3 press conference and as many had predicted they did show off their new console which has been named Wii U – but in true Nintendo fashion they did their way by only showing off the revolutionary controller and not the actual console itself. It…
Sony at E3: Alive & kicking with PS Vita and Playstation 3D TV
Sony had their E3 press conference recently and it showed that the Playstation brand is in rude health as Sony unveiled 2 new pieces of hardware and plenty of new games. Before any of the announcements Sony US boss Jack Tretton took to the stage and talked about the Playstation…
