    Microsoft Surface Pro 4 (and Surface Book)

    Any thoughts? I have had my eye on the Pro 4 for a while and after playing with it I was convinced it would be the perfect replacement for my non-Pro Surface 3. I tried the Surface Book when I was in Sydney at the Microsoft Store and came away thinking it was an okay laptop but not special...

    Career focussed at a young age and relationships

    I found this on LinkedIn and despite being American it really resonated with me and my ups and downs when I was in Uni and trying to meet someone. It also reflected on maybe how my ego felt at times thinking about my early start on a cadetships as well as my initial inability to realise everyone...

    I'm banned from PlayStation Network

    Since I am waiting for Sony to lift the ban from my PSN account so that I can login to my PS4 and play the numerous downloaded games or Battlefront online (oh and I'm PS+), I may as well tell my story of pain and frustration dealing with Sony Computer Entertainment Australia and PlayStation...

    Post your gaming setup

    Given how much effort some PC and console gamers put into their setups, here's a thread for you to post your own. Here's mine - I just moved house and was so stoked to see a network outlet right there so I hooked up an 8 port switch and went with maximising my fibre Internet connection. I'm...

    Star Wars Battlefront (2015)

    I'm surprised noone has posted on here about this... either it's because it's exam time, or people are too busy playing right? :)

    Cheat codes

    It just dawned on me that a whole generation of gamers are going to grow up not knowing what cheat codes are or the satisfaction of learning a trick like entering in a button sequence or a random name yielding special rewards. Whilst I understand the business model behind IAPs, I can't help...

    Forza 6 on Xbox One

    I caved in. Bought an Xbox One a couple of nights ago to play Forza 6 (yes I bought the Forza 6 bundle). OMG it's so good. I really love the XB one controller over my PS4 controller especially with the Impulse Triggers. It surprisingly makes a huge difference when playing a driving game. Also...

    911 alternatives - must have a rear seat (for baby seats)

    My friend is set on a 911 Turbo but I'm trying to help him find an alternative which can fit his requirements (namely baby seats in the back). Somehow he also considers a Cayenne Hybrid as an option... and a Bentley Continental GT. So far I've suggested a Tesla, X6M (a favourite of mine)...

    Portable battery chargers

    Do you have one? Do you carry it regularly? I have a few including an iPhone case for my 5S... they're pretty useful but since moving to iPhone 6 and using a card-case rather than battery case, I've missed it and everytime I get caught out (e.g. last night when waiting for the missus hair dye...

    Steam Controller

    It appears they have the final design based on what I saw in the videos in Steam when I was looking at the sale. I don't know - it doesn't look comfortable and looks downright awkward to use with the awkward analogue stick, puny face buttons and of course the dual haptic trackpads. More...

    Apple WWDC 2015

    Anyone else been following the news on Apple's WWDC 2015? Summary articles: OS X 10.11 El Capitan http://www.macrumors.com/2015/06/08/osx-el-capitan-compatible-macs/ iOS 9 http://www.macrumors.com/2015/06/08/ios-9-tidbits-and-hidden-features/ Apple Watch OS2...

    iOS gaming - just bought a Steelseries Stratus XL controller for iPad

    I'm amazed at what a difference it makes to gaming on the go. Feels like a hybrid Xbox 360 and PS3 controller (i.e. Xbox 360 feel; but PS3 dual joystick layout). Button quality and feedback is good except the L2/R2 feels a bit squeaky as they are more similar to the Xbox shoulder triggers with...

    Microsoft Surface 3 (not the Pro)

    Is anyone interested in the new Surface 3? I'm actually considering it (partially because fiance wants to get for my birthday) and it would be a good replacement for the Asus T100TA which I recently sold on Gumtree. It's a little bit smaller than Surface Pro with a 10.7" screen and it's a bit...

    Tipping in Australia - Dailytelegraph

    Interesting article but it really depends on the type of establishment you're dining at. It's nowhere near as bad as the US where everyone expects a tip regardless of how crummy of a job they've done and what they're doing. For me, I think my propensity to tip definitely increased over time...

    Top Gear without Jeremy Clarkson?

    Seems sad to even contemplate but no doubt it won't be long before he ends up another network if the parting really does end up happening. http://www.autoevolution.com/news/jeremy-clarkson-quits-top-gear-show-cancelled-for-good-93287.html (be sure to read all the updates at the bottom - only...

    New Macbook (the thin/gold one with a 12" retina display)

    Man it looks amazing. Not a fan of the gold colour but it's interesting to see how they've applied their colour scheme to the Macbook. Only problem is... I don't really need another computer. All images/info sourced from Mac Rumors. I also wonder how a single USB-C will catch...

    Windows 8.1 on tablets

    Has anyone here tried using this? After buying the Asus Transformer TA100 (http://www.asus.com/sg/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/ASUS_Transformer_Book_T100TA/) I'm starting to get my head around Windows 8.1 as well as the touch screen interface. So far I've had a very "Meh" experience compare to...

    UT99 (classic/original) vs UT2004 ... and my netbook 2.0.

    I know it sounds like I was joking but I really did buy an Asus Transformer TA100 with the ground-breaking quad core Intel Atom Z3775 and 2gb of ram. Whilst the hybrid tablet was pretty cheap ($550sgd) and achieves my objectives (a portable device I can sit on the couch with to 'utilise' my...

    I finally drove a V8 turbocharged convertible... ask me a question.

    After spending quite a bit of time thrashing a new SL63, in the spirit of two older threads, ask me a question. http://community.boredofstudies.org/505/cars-automobiles/102925/i-finally-drove-v8.html...
