Vigor Force Recon QX4 can megatask

Vigor Force Recon QX4 can megatask Ever blamed your defeats in games on your computer for failing to pump out that extra FPS just when you needed it the most? I suppose when you pick up the Vigor Force Recon QX4, there will no longer be any more avenue for such lame excuses. The company claims that this computer does not only do multi-tasking, it is capable of mega-tasking as well! A couple of AMD Athlon 64 FX-74 dual-core processors on a Dual Socket Direct Connect architecture motherboard power this potent beast, while 2GB of Corsair 1066MHz RAM helps it out. You can customize your rig here, but the base system starts at $2,899 upwards so you probably have to sell that kidney of yours for high-end specifications.

post from Ubergizmo on 20 December 2006 10:01:16 PM. © Ubergizmo

Those who love watching their TV shows on the go will definitely fall head over heels with the Makayama Interactive Mobile TV Center. This application enables you to record movies over Windows Media Center, converting them automatically to a format that is suitable for your cellphone, PSP, Pocket PC, Palm, and even iPod. Just make sure your device is listed on the rollcall of 550 portable gadgets and comes with at least 128MB of memory, regardless of whether it is internal or via a memory card. At $35 each, it is almost too good an offer to pass up. It beats me why the hot chick is content with watching her favorite show on such a tiny display when she has a bad-ass widescreen panel sitting in the background.

The T3Hub is definitely the perfect device for those who hit the road a lot. You can pick up the T3Hub for $19.99 each.
