So, Apple just released 2 EFI updates 1.4 and one for the SuperDrive, and I installed them on my MacBook. Wow! No noise from the HD or the SuperDrive, very cool! I would tell you to click the ‘more’ but there isn’t really anything else to say except that this update is AWESOME.
Check for your version here at Apple,
or go ahead and just run the good ‘ole Software Update

The Logitech G25. Probably one of the sweetest, most nerdiest things I personally own. and i’m proud of it. I have played a few games and i’ve been just dying to mod it, and i’m sure you have too.
But for ~250$ new, i’m sure it’s not something you feel like voiding your warranty over. and let me repeat – this WILL void your warranty, especially if you are a messy modder.
Good thing you have a guide like this, with plenty of pictures to base your modding decision on.

So I bought the IKEA Mikael Desk for a little over $80 in May. A few months later it is still treating me well. It has a very strong build quality. Click “more” for a full review and some pictures.

Apple just released their new update of Snow Leopard. It fixes a rather large problem that has to due with data loss related to guest accounts. it also corrects a problem with multi-touch expose features, one i have currently been upset about, and has been one of my main gripes since upgrading from 10.5.x Leopard.

To install Shockwave on any other 32-bit OS (operating system) would be a breeze, but for the average consumer, this install requires an extra step.
Shockwave and Flash Player should be among the first plugins installed for a new Mac user, this guide will help those same people get there.
