- To standardize or not to standardize
- I've talked in a few posts about the tech refresh we've pitched to our town recently. They haven't actually coughed up any money yet, but I think we made a pretty compelling case. I'm choosing to be optimistic (maybe it's just caffeine and sleep deprivation, but I have...

- Fear Factor in BitTorrent debate
- In arguing the monopolists' case against net neutrality today, our own George Ou plays a version of Fear Factor. The slimy bug we're supposed to gag on is the idea of a "metered Internet," which the EFF and other net neutrality proponents have offered as an alternative...

- GE 28310EE1 (Skype)
- We've reviewed several dual-mode cordless phones with Skype in 2007, and if you've compared the various models, you'll notice that our reviews sound very similar. That's because apart from styling and the availability of additional handsets, there's very little difference between the current crop of Skype phones. GE's dual-mode Skype/cordless...

- Canon DC50
- Typically, when shooting still photos, camcorders offer few exposure options and turn out low-quality images. Conversely, most dedicated still cameras tend to offer disappointing video, and are best left to only take pictures. The Canon DC50 manages to avoid these limitations, to an extent. This standard-definition DVD camcorder not only...

- Are proprietary firms paying gringo price?
- The open source discount, the lower price one would pay to acquire an open source company because its code is not proprietary, seems to be going away. Yahoo paid $350 million for Zimbra. That sounds like full price to me. Citrix spent $500 million on XenSource, which...

- Canon Pixma MP210
- The $80 Canon Pixma MP210 is the lowest-priced model in Canon's all-in-one inkjet printer line. It lacks features that would make it either office-oriented or photo-oriented, so it's best for general use and light workloads. It's missing a lot of the features that comparably priced all-in-ones offer, such as memory...
