SONY MZ-RH1 Minidisc

SONY MZ-RH1 Minidisc I bought this unit about 18 months ago, and  no doubt some will be thinking *why would anyone buy a minidisc these days?*, so I’ll explain. I also own a 20gb hdd sony NW-HD5 which I have owned for many years. I use this model(NW-HD5) because I found the ATRAC3plus 352kb losslessContinue reading “SONY MZ-RH1 Minidisc”

Things I would own if I won lotto

I will add to this from time to time but to get it started URWERK WATCH I would love to own an URWERK watch. These watches are revolutionary in design and unsurpassed in craftsmanship. The design reminds me of the legendary Curta manual calculator(see below), in that it is technically brilliant, yet awe inspiring inContinue reading “Things I would own if I won lotto”

Brain Machine Interface

Brain Machine Interface (or Direct Neural Interface) Brain machine interface(BMI) is a direct communication pathway between a brain and an external device. This was a subject of science fiction, as seen in the movie Firefox but is now a reality, although still in its early days. Original work in this science began in the 1970’s.

PANASONIC HDC-SD1

PANASONIC SD-1 I have had this camcorder for over a year now and absolutely love it. It uses an SD card to record to which is amazing technology and in my opinion the future of camcorders.

BELKIN Nostromo N52te Gamepad

With my new Asus N50vc laptop having the ability to run most games, I thought it was time to grab a couple and see how it performed. One of the games I grabbed was Mirrors Edge.This game is great and highly addictive but control and precision timing are essential.

ASUS N50VC Laptop

I have just upgraded to this latest model Asus Centrino 2 notebook. I was using a 18 month old 2ghz Asus Laptop that was incredibly reliable. I do most of my daily net tasks(like writing this blog) on my Acer netbook but use my laptop for Music production, Video editing and now some gaming.

Siemens Gigaset C470 ip VOIP phone set up

I have just plugged in a brand new Siemens Gigaset C470 voip handset and am writing this as I set it up. My first point of call is whirlpool.net.au to see what the best way to go is. Whirlpool is an Aussie site that was initially created when bigpond (telstra) was the only broadband serviceContinue reading “Siemens Gigaset C470 ip VOIP phone set up”

Logitech MX Revolution Mouse

I have had this mouse for over a year now. Its an awesome mouse, and is as claimed the worlds most advanced, mainly because of the scroll wheel it has. If you click the wheel, it *free wheels* or spins. This great on the net, or in spread sheets, large documents etc, as it allowsContinue reading “Logitech MX Revolution Mouse”
