No More CompUSA



It's a sad day in the computer world as one of the best and largest computer stores is closing down. As you know, CompUSA closed down half of their stores nationwide over the summer and we just got the word that CompUSA has sold to liquidators and that the store will close officially at the end of January. CompUSA has been around since e1984, the beginning of the computer revolution and is now no more. Even as a Best Buy employee, I loved CompUSA because they actually carried high end hardware, motherboards, processors, and other hard to find things at retail.
From what I've heard, the now king of the hill is MicroCenter. There is one in the old Gaithersburg CompUSA building.

R.I.P. CompUSA 1984-2007

Let The Light In(v.2)

In the first quarter of '08, Microsoft is set to release v2.0(1.1) of Silverlight, a competitor to the popular Flash player from Adobe. One of the new features is that you will be able to develop Silverlight applications using Visual Studio and the .NET Framework. This means you'll be able to code Silverlight with C# and VB.  Sounds like Adobe will have a run for its money when version 5(2.0) comes out.

HD-DVD for 129


Do you have a craving for the 360 HD-DVD drive but the price has been to steep? Well Microsoft has now dropped the price even further from $179 to $129. It's almost cheap enough for me, but I'm poor so thats how it is. So far, Amazon and Toys R' Us have the updated price.
