C-64"It's back... and better than ever! The new Commodore 64 is a modern functional PC as close to the original in design as humanly possible. It houses a modern mini-ITX PC motherboard featuring a Dual Core 525 Atom processor and the latest Nvidia Ion2 graphics chipset. It comes in the original taupe brown/beige color, with other colors to follow."

It's very strange seeing this machine with modern ports, but good to see it back; now if only someone would do this with the Amiga 500.

Neil from the Hippy Seed Company tries out Country Harvest's Crocodile Bite -- one of my all time favourite hot sauces. It has a great flavour and a really nice burn.

I usually pick it up from my local fruit and veg store or IGA.

iOS 4.2Apple released to the public iOS 4.2 for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch today. Whilst iPhone users won't notice many differences, this update is mainly for the iPad users, who haven't been able to take advantage of all the cool features that 4.0 brought to the iPhone and iPod touch.

"iOS 4.2 makes the iPad a completely new product, just in time for the holiday season," said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. "Once again, the iPad with iOS 4.2 will define the target that other tablets will aspire to, but very few, if any, will ever be able to hit."

There is one gem for iPhone users and that's the Find My iPhone feature, which is now available for free to use without needing a MobileMe subscription. The Find My iPhone app is a free download on the App Store and lets users locate a missing device on a map and have it display a message or play a sound. You can even remotely lock or wipe data from a lost device to protect privacy.

Tt eSports Azurues"Taiwanese peripheral manufacturer Tt eSports has launched a new three button gaming mouse aimed to please those with a penchant for fragging.

Unlike other options out there such as the Razer Lachesis, which tout ever-increasing sensitivity specs, the Azurues' optical sensor engine is content to top out at 1600 dpi, and can easily be adjusted down to 400 / 800 dpi via a hardware switch on the bottom.

That makes it ideal for those who prefer a little more wrist leeway while shooting. Other niceties include a black rubber coating for grip, an adjustable weight design, low friction Teflon feet, integrated lighting, and a braided cable to take repeated abuse from the thrill of desk-side battle.

Unfortunately, pricing and availability are still unknown, so there's no need to remove your cursor from the back of your next victim's head until more details surface."

I'm pretty happy with my Razer Copperhead, but if this mouse is as good as it's suppose to be, then this could be the next one for me.
