We’ve highlighted plenty of game cartridge/console mods in the past. I’m sure we’ve even done some similar to the Game Boy cartridge flash drive you see above. Though, if I can be brutally honest, I’ve got the memory of a gold fish. No joke. So if it’s managed to slip my memory, forgive me. Either way, forgotten or not, the Game Boy Cartridge Flash Drive is right up there with the NES controller flash drive in terms of coolness. Although,...
When Seagate introduced the HybridXT hard drive a few weeks ago, it seemed like previous failures were finally being corrected and that all the bugs of the HDD/SSD co-mingling had been sorted out. A new in-depth analysis by The TechReport is coming up with data that is actually contrary to that belief however.

Small has a new definition thanks to Hitachi.

It won’t be cheap surely. ...
I’m honestly at a loss for words here. Food will probably taste better, odors smell more distinct, and colors more vibrant now that I have seen this Teddy Drive. Of course, the poor bear won’t ever taste, smell, or see anything again. But that’s besides the point. I really don’t see how this can be topped. I have a sort of sick, twisted humor that finds headless bears crammed into computers funny. Forgive me if that offends you. Though I...
Getting all crafty with your business card is a great way to get noticed faster than the average job/business seeker. But all the geeky cards that I’ve seen so far are 2D canvases with variations in color, text, etc. These 24KB cards — yes, that’s a kilobyte — actually hold data. Granted, it’s only enough to barely cram a resume on board. But if you’re huntin’ for a job, is there really anything else you need? The USB Circuit...
