Annual cost of IT failure: $6.2 trillion

I'm not buying their claims.. It looks like they're declaring all IT activities as a failure which is patently ridiculous.. The companies I support rarely experience a failure. I do the product evaluations up front and determine if a product is worthy of purchase and deployment. I use...

Razer Megalodon headset

We recently took a look at two wired PC gaming headsets that rest in the midrange spectrum. While the P21 from Turtle Beach performed well as a PC headset, we wish it offered an option to expand to surround sound. The G330 from Logitech also performed well--not to...

Colbert heats up global warming
