Sorry for the lack of posts lately. Running a business and working a second job does not give me much free time for the site. Since I've been gone lately there is one thing everyone seems to have in common now. We're all broke. However, no worries, Obama will be passing his stimulus bill to fix EVERYTHING. On a realistic note, I will still be saving all the money I can since every recession has so far fixed itself without government spending. For all of you tech fans I just wanted to mention a web site to help build that new rig and save you some cash. Slickdeals.net is a web site that users post deals they find for others to benefit. Just check out the home page for the hottest deals, but don't forget to visit the forums to see what people are finding for certain things. I find myself buying a lot of bargains from deals I find.

It seems Nvidia has created some headache with a faulty chip. The bug not only affects DELL and HP computers but even seems to affect some MacBook Pro models. Specifically models with the GeForce 8600M GT graphics processor. It seems the faulty chip causes distorted video or even no video at all. Nvidia was aware of the problem in July and has set aside 196 million dollars to cover the costs of fixing the issue. No exact details have been specified as to which exact chipsets are affected. Users are told to contact their computer manufacturer to see what to do if they are affected. The problem has so far been traced a packaging company for Nvidia. It seems that somehow some of the chips are overheating and failing.

I just want to take the time to share some personal opinion. Somewhat recently with Firefox 3 being released I have noticed it now repeatedly crashes for me. At first I thought one of my amazing add-ons just had some sort of compatibility issue and was causing everything. However, I then noticed the same issues at my work computer, and then my parents call me to say that Firefox just won't stop crashing. I haven't found a cause of this however it does seem to be completely random. I can never recreate the issue and pin down something that could be causing it. So in the meantime, I guess I will be trying that new Chrome out. Lets hope that Mozilla foundation doesn't start to go downhill with unstable updates.

There have been many DVD copying programs come and go over the years. Some for legal reasons and some for usability reasons. RealNetworks is going to be releasing a program called "RealDVD" which will allow you to copy movies entirely including the extras and even artwork from the box. The program will cost $30. Only time will tell if this media company will succeed in the fine lines of DVD copying software.
