I have no idea how I missed this the first time around, but having watched this hilarious ad/trailer from Microsoft I chuckled more than a little bit.  Kudos for the madness expressed at Wingdings- check it out!

So Microsoft’s retail stores launched recently and I can’t quite place my finger on it, but it almost feels like I’ve already been to one somehow.  It’s eerie really, like deja vu almost.  I mean, I don’t know how that’d be possible considering I’ve never, ever stepped foot in a store with expansive areas of [...]

A coworker of mine turned me onto the video below of some of Microsoft’s new attempts at re-vitalizing the standard mouse.  A couple of them don’t strike me as super-intuitive, but on the whole this appears to be a very interesting development.  Take a look for yourself:

Good evening boys and girls!  Nicole and I just wrapped episode 4 and it’s live now for your listening pleasure.  We mainly talk about everything that happened this past week at E3 and I also explain my brief hiatus to celebrate my birthday.  Speaking of which, I’ll be sure to post some pictures tomorrow of [...]

I’ll be honest with you, I’m technically impartial to all systems,  though I do tend to prefer the 360 as Nicole and I have a supreme appreciation for achievement points.  Bearing that in mind, I was most interested to see if Microsoft would unveil anything noteworthy at today’s press conference and boy, did they deliver.  [...]
