When Megan Fox and I get married, I will demand only the best for our wedding. Which means this Steampunk Organ Computer will definitly be making an appearance. Sure, there might not be actual functioning pipes, but that’s nothing a little Pro Tools can’t fix. I can’t even say it doesn’t include a keyboard because HELLO, it’s got QWERTY. Everything ...

Best Buy’s Geek Squad offers to “optimize” your computer for $40, claiming to double your computer’s speed in some cases. But if Consumerist’s little unscientific study is correct, this whole optimization thing could just be a giant scam: Upon comparing the optimized changes, the first noticeable change was a cleaner desktop. Most of the removed shortcuts were for trials, promotions ...

If for some reason you haven’t started using your various devices to keep track of your daily appointments you probably still rely on the old paper calendar.

If you’ve come across Apple’s homepage today you might notice several new gadgets strewn across the site, including the maxi pad-inspired Magic Mouse, a brand new multi-touch mouse device which will now ship with all iMacs.

But for this idea, I must concede defeat, as I would never have thought of such an ingenious space saver. Wait a second, I take that back, I so thought of this first. Yeah… totally did. The PC Drawer and ...

Just as they say “live by the sword, die by the sword,” the same goes for geeks. Mr. Alan here was such a fan of his Sun SPARCstation that his ashes were placed inside of one (a SPARCstation in pristine condition I might add), complete with a name plate decked out with a quote from what other show then, you ...

Sources are reporting that Apple has sent a memo out to their retail stores across the U.S. stating that “further orders for many of its existing desktop SKUs would go unhonored and that stores should not expect those models to be restocked.” In other words, we definitely should be seeing some new Apple desktop computers in the coming weeks, potentially ...

Perhaps the greenest and most flammable case mod we’ve ever seen, aside from the UbuntuBox, the “Recompute” cardboard PC case shows off how sustainability can not only be cheap, but can ignite your whole house in flames as well. Even if there is a cooling fan, and even if the power supply and mother board are kept at separate ends ...

The Egyptians built pyramids for a reason. Number one, the pharaohs forced them to at whip point. Two, they look fucking awesome. It seems the designer of this Pyramid HTPC casemod got his hands on a few Egyptian slaves. I wonder how much they go for these days. Inspired by the pyramids featured in Stargate, the HTPC includes an Intel ...

If Leonardo da Vinci had taken a page out of Steve Jobs’s book and decided to design computer hardware for a living, his designs would have probably looked something like this.
