		<description><![CDATA[The great and wonderful Augustine Panel has released its final recommendations for NASA. With all due respect, I must disagree with the conclusion that we must skip the moon and head for Mars. An obvious reason is that we&#8217;re not prepared for long-term space flight. Rocketing off to comets and asteroids won&#8217;t do anything for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was in response to a proposed CPU delivery. I&#8217;m always on the lookout to tell people about faster processors. This whole green thing where we shrink die sizes to decrease pathway distances while lowering clock speeds to reduce power requirements is, in my opinion, the product of an over-estrogenized R&#38;D department. It may work [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s not that I mind a good price war. Before the Centrino, Intel had them all the time &#8211;with itself. Now Microsoft is poised to release Windows 7 (on my birthday, of all dates &#8211;which means they should send me a free copy) and the company just released the prices for the various versions. And [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been trying to review an AVerMedia Duet dual-tuner x1 PCIe tuner card all week. God has it been tough. The darn thing kept acquiring only four digital channels and I have 21 available on my Hauppauge HVR-2250. I tried everything &#8211;new drivers, rescanning, prayer, hopping on one leg while waving a rubber chicken over [...]]]></description>

Now I know that living in the same state as a Newegg shipping center means I&#8217;m paying sales tax as well as shipping fees, but when you can receive your [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Myth 1: A Solid State Disk will boot faster than mechanical hard drive. This is true but it’s partially smoke and mirrors as well. When SSDs first appeared, they were rather pathetic 8GB and 16GB devices. Not much fits in that size. Even at 32GB you’ll still be somewhat cramped if you have hardware drivers [...]]]></description>
