Best netbook computers at the moment? Asus or something else?

A post written by Mike and published in Gadgets and gizmosMy Reviews 

I’m a very lazy person and i hate carrying heavy stuff around, like my everyday laptop (that has around 6 lbs). That’s why I’ve been planing to buy something smaller: a netbook .

I needed something that would provide me decent performances and good autonomy, would have as sturdy construction but would look OK (not something made of cheap plastic) and won’t be either heavy, nor expensive.

A post written by Mike and published in My Reviews 

As you know from my previous episode about online stores CMS, i had to decide between Joomla + Virtuemart, Magento and x-Cart. After more than a month of testing them, i finally decided for the fourth one: Prestahop.

Halo 3 sucks

A post written by Mike and published in My Reviews 

I had Halo 3 on my desk today. And I’ve tried it. And it sucks.

Don’t get me wrong, the game has some astonishing graphics, but i find it extremely hard to control my soldier with a game pad instead of the classic mouse. The only way i could hit some moving aliens was to go between them in a killing spree, shooting continuously with that machine gun. Very annoying… And it’s not just because I’m not used to game pads, you just physically can’t…
