Akasa Everest Notebook Cooler Review

Friday, August 20 2010 12:06 Patrick Nosker PC Component Reviews

I'm not too big of a laptop user because of three reasons: heat, battery life, and performance. Some other minor reasons include lack of drive space and ports.

GoPro Hero HD Impressions/EyeofMine Roll Bar Mount

Saturday, July 17 2010 11:42 Patrick Nosker Video

Sorry for the teaser guys, but the full review will be up when I get back from the Cayman Islands after I complete my underwater testing. Thanks to Russell at EyeofMine Camera, I was able to test out the GoPro Hero HD. Because I haven't had enough time to fully evaluate it's full feature set, and because I am still waiting on the firmware upgrade, I am only going to post a quick video I made by testing out the Motorsport features.
