Lucid's GPU-mixing HYDRA Engine gets previewed, shows real promise {Engadget}
Nov 11th 2009 2:05PM I personally would find this nice, since I usually out of habit build a new machine with a mid-range nVidia card (9600GT), and then the high-end, cheap ATI cards come out a few months later (5850/5870) and I don't see a reason to junk my perfectly good GT just for a little boost from the ATI card. This would give me the best of both worlds, plus freedom to switch between XFire and SLI as I saw fit, and yeah, I know there are boards that already do that, but they are limited in other ways more than likely.
Verizon looking to bump early termination fee to $350 on 'advanced' devices {Engadget}
Nov 4th 2009 3:33PM Andir, your math is flawed...you still have to pay activation ($36) and one month service, lets call it $75 for data/voice/text. Comes out to $200+$175+$75+$36=$486, yielding a profit for the end user of only $14, minus eBay/PayPal fees, so you're actually losing a few bucks flipping the phone. I know, I've done it with iPhones, BlackBerries, etc. It's hard to keep costs competitive when flipping....

Turtle Beach keeps tweens boasting with Ear Force X41 Xbox 360 headset {Engadget}
Aug 11th 2009 7:39AM I'll go along with the rest and say that those 5.1/7.1 headphones, if designed properly, do a great job of providing 3d positional audio. Don't think you're gonna watch a 5.1 Dolby Surround movie with them and get the same effect, but they're fine for gaming. I actually have a pair of Tritton AXPCs, which are similar I believe to these TBs, just not wireless and they're for a pc instead of 360.

Cheerleader Sues Over Facebook Privacy Invasion {Switched.com}
Jul 29th 2009 10:12PM As much as I hate to say it, and not having read the source article (its late, I'm tired), she might well have a case. If the coach or teacher or authority figure ordered her to turn over her account information under duress, there's a problem. Now of course she could and should have refused and gone to the school's pricipal or even department head and complained, but whatever, sue-happy people I guess...
