Secrets Are Meant to be Shared
A company I currently can’t name (and can’t link to since their site isn’t ready for prime time) has asked me to take a look at a new thermal compound they are releasing. Since I’m horrible at keeping secrets, I decided I’d post about it here. Eventually a full review will be up on Futurelooks.com.
Now taking pot-shots are the throne occupied by the likes of Arctic Silver is nothing new, but I can’t help but help out the underdog. Preliminary testing looks very promising. I’m just waiting for the Arctic Silver 5 I just applied to set up, and I’ll finally have a conclusive comparison. Basically I’ll know whether this stuff is top dog, or just second best.

Lots of Hardware Goodness
With my having completed the review of the Razer Lycosa review, and slowly plodding away on a review of a nVidia 9600 GT based video card from Foxconn, I thought I’d give you a preview of what else I have coming down the pipe over at Futurelooks.com.
Now as cool as waffle makers that glowed blue would be, this isn’t such a creature. It’s definitely a creature though, if at least in name. From the company known as Wolfking comes the Warrior Xxtreme Gamepad. Stephen Fung sent me the info on this when he was culling together his review list, and it looked intriguing. A little silly, but definitely intriguing. The guiding principle Wolfking has placed behind the Warrior Xxtreme as being the "world’s first 2-in-1 PC gamepad and keyboard." A cursory glance through the instruction manual shows this device seems to be aimed at MMO players and CS junkies. Since I play neither (Team Fortress 2 and Call of Duty 4 are my FPS games of choice), this ought to be interesting.
