LEPA G Series 700W Power Supply
I highly recommend our evaluation of the LEPA G Series 700W PSU to anyone in the market for a new power supply. How does this power supply stack up? You'll have to read the full review for the answer, here's a quote to get you started: HardOCP is serious when it comes to power supplies, but is LEPA? Given that Ecomaster is now the authorized agent delivering the Enermax and LEPA brands of PSUs, we have high hopes for this new-to-us LEPA branding. Is LEPA part of, "The complete product lines satisfy all players' ultimate needs?" Comments

Randy Pitchford Bemoans Multiplayer Obsession
Gearbox's head honcho (and all around nice guy) Randy Pitchford explains why we see multiplayer forced into games that shouldn't have it. If you guessed "corporate bean counters" as a reason, give yourself a cookie. Gearbox's upcoming Duke Nukem Forever, a fast-paced FPS, naturally suits competitive multiplayer, but Pitchford points to the likes of Dead Space 2 as evidence that decisions are often motivated by the desire to tick boxes on a feature list, rather than for the good of the game itself.

Google Boots Grooveshark from Android Market
Anyone else find it amusing that Google has kicked Grooveshark off the Android Market just a few days before the search giant is set to testify on Capitol Hill about its antipiracy efforts? "We remove apps from Android Market that violate our terms of service," a Google spokesman said in response to questions from CNET. He did not specify what violations Grooveshark may have committed or whether Google had been pressured by the music industry to remove the app. Comments

Dish Network Wins Blockbuster Auction for $320M
It would seem that Dish Network now owns what is left of Blockbuster after submitting a winning $320 million bid for the bankrupt company's remaining assets. The question of what's next for Blockbuster has been partially answered, now that Dish Network has announced its $320 million bid was enough to win a bankruptcy court auction for the rental giant's remaining assets. After "certain adjustments" are made and the deal closes, it's expected to cost just $228 million in cash. Comments

Why Google Needs Android to be Less Open
I think this is the first time I have ever heard someone call for Android to be "less open." The "open" nature of the Android OS has contributed to its success, but the lack of control over the Android ecosystem as a whole creates a confusing landscape for app developers and could ultimately hinder the platform.

Intel Core i7 990X Extreme on Linux
The Linux gurus at Phoronix have taken the Intel Core i7 990X Extreme CPU around the block a few times and were rather impressed with the performance. For those willing to spend $999 USD on a new processor, Intel has a new Core i7 part out that is stunningly fast. The Core i7 990X is the $999 successor to the previously reviewed Core i7 970 that ups the core frequency to 3.46GHz and provides a 3.73GHz Turbo Boost frequency. This six-core CPU with Hyper Threading works wonderful with Linux. Comments

Windows Live Hotmail Helps Users Control Email Clutter
If you're anything like most email users, your inbox is probably a mess. At this moment, your multiple accounts are overflowing with hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of messages from friends, family and coworkers, and with newsletters, coupons, special offers and spam offering amazing deals on replica watches and prescription medications. It's OK to admit this fact. You're not alone. Sixty percent of people surveyed said the amount of junk and low-priority email (such as newsletters and shopping promotions) they receive is problematic, while 70 percent of respondents said they feel they are missing important messages amid all the clutter. Still, many people also said they are convinced they will one day get through all of the messages in their inboxes. Comments

Is The PC Winning the Gaming War?
Is the PC winning the gaming war? This article claims that not only is PC gaming on its way up, gaming is shifting away from consoles altogether. Apparently none of the people in this article played Console 2 Crysis 2. PC Gaming Alliance claims the focus of gaming is shifting away from consoles. Reports of the death of PC gaming have not only been greatly exaggerated, but the platform is actually in ascendancy, and is set to take the gaming platform crown from its console rivals. Comments
