DIY: Mini MAME Cabinet

EEE 4G External Antenna Mod
I love to use Back Track as my all around security testing OS (If your not sure what Back Track is check out my little write up about it the other day). I also love to use Back Track on my EEE pc. It’s small, light, and has decent wifi range. Thanks to Larry Pesce [...]

New Commodore Laptop, Yes I Said Commodore
With Asus having such great success with their UMPC the eeePC, why not have everyone jump into the game?

Leaked Shots: Asus N10
The N10 is Asus’s next gen EEEPC.

EeePC Keyboard Backlight for $15
I’m a huge fan of my EeePC. So much so that I am actually writing this post on my 4G right now. The one thing that drives me bananas with the unit is the lack of a keyboard light, and when you are in a dark room trying to type, well you can just imagine. [...]

Android Hacked To Run On Actual Hardware
Some crafty hackers have successfully gotten Google’s java based Android software stack to run on actual hardware. The first hardware platform to run the Android stack seems to have been the Atmark-Techno’s Armadillo-500, which is a development board based on Freescales’ i.MX31L mobile applications processor. Next, getting Anroid running on my ASUS EEEPC. How cool [...]
WoW on the EEEPC
All of my co-workers can tell you about how much I love my Asus EEEPC. It’s the perfect little machine to carry around when you need to do some blogging and surfing. You can imagine how shocked I was to find out that I can also play WoW on it while I’m on the road [...]
