Zarch’s Gear: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX9
Published by September 22nd, 2007 in Gadget Reviews and Reviews. 0 CommentsWe’ve been through a few digital cameras here in the Zarch household, starting with a 1.3 megapixel Olympus I got way back when digital cameras were just a novelty. Since then, we’ve had a Fuji Finepix, a couple of Nikons, and my wife’s great Canon Powershot S70 (which gave up the ghost today, in a [...]
Zarch’s Gear: A New Series About My Stuff
Published by September 22nd, 2007 in Gadget Reviews, Gadgets, Hardware and Hardware Reviews. 0 CommentsI thought it might be of interest to post about the gadgets that accompany me in my day to day life. I’m a gadget whore, you might say, always looking for another fix of the latest crap that comes out. That’s why the stuff that sticks around might provide some interest: if a device survives [...]

Our buddy is kind of funny, and I had to go ahead and break the seal for him so he wouldn’t be able to freak [...]
Scott over at ExtraLife.com posted this fun and enlightening video today and I thought I’d share. I haven’t tried this myself yet, but you can bet that I’m going to. This hack is just too good to pass up.
Thought I’d pass along some information on a couple movies that are in the works. Both movies could either be complete awesomeness or they could both intensely suck. It’ll be interesting to see what the studios do with them. Anyway… 1. Tron 2 – Apparently Disney studios decided it would be a good idea to [...]
Stumbled on this video today… it makes my head hurt. It’s a dumbed down version of multi-dimensional theory, but it’s still difficult to wrap your head around.
Robert Jordan: Thanks and Rest Peacefully
Published by September 16th, 2007 in Audiobooks and Random. 0 CommentsSome of you may have been aware that fantasy author Robert Jordan has been suffering from a fatal illness. He died today at about 2:45 PM Eastern, leaving his major work, the Wheel of Time, unfinished. As a fan for nearly two decades now, I just wanted to say thanks and send out my condolences [...]
Forget Emulation… I Want This!!!
Published by September 10th, 2007 in Case Mods and Nintendo. 0 CommentsNot sure about the details surrounding this thing, but all I can say is WOW! One might argue that this baby is a few years late to the scene, but that didn’t stop one intrepid modder from creating a thing of dreams (from about 15 years ago). I mean… how often did you used to [...]
