HARDWARE ERROR? SOFTWARE ERROR USER ERROR? As simple as it may sound, people can still mess up burning an .ISO image to CD or DVD. I’d have this in past where I would but an .ISO to disc and when I went to go use the disc of it was burned..it just didn’t work. I though it was my burner…maybe me? Then I searched for different software, and I’m glad I did because I came across IMG BURN. IMG BURN WORKS GREAT, AND IT’S FREE! The results of my searching brought me to IMG BURN. Using IMG BURN was very simple. I have yet to burn a coaster using IMG BURN. And another plus of using IMG BURN, no need to crack software, it’s open source which means it’s free! And the free software is dependable, i’ve been using it for 5 years and also use it to burn my music CDs. A VIDEO ON IMG BURN Here’s a short video, BY REQUEST, on burning an .ISO image file to DVD/CD disc. Hopefully more than one person will find it useful. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egu3hhahClo

How To Replace A Hard Drive From A PlayStation 3 (PS3).

A quick video on the new updates and changes to Microsoft’s NEW XBox 360 S (slim).

Looking for a portable hard drive? I recently purchased iOmega’s Prestige Portable Hard Drive and I’m loving it! Looks slick and is quick. The Prestige Portable Hard Drive works great with PortableApps, a lot faster than my flash based USB memory stick. Please watch my review!

Here’s a very interesting video for those that think they need the best and most expensive camera on the market to take quality photos. Lee Morris of FStoppers.com shoots a full fashion photography session with the iPhone 3Gs. So yah, you may not need an expensive camera but it helps to have LOTS of lighting and a beautiful model like Olivia Price <3.

Wow, am I ever impressed with Microsoft this year. They have re-designed the XBox 360 to be slimmer, quieter and packed with built in features not previously included in older models. But l will admit and I hope Microsoft will admit as well that they pretty much copied the PlayStation 3 (PS3) in terms of included features. The new XBox 360 now includes wireless adaptor, a bigger hard drive that i looks to be internal and removable…however, I don’t think you can stick a SATA laptop hard drive like with the PS3. Hell, the new XBox is even BLACK just like the PS3! These changes are exciting and should rack up more console sales. I think for the first time, I can say ‘PS3 beware’. Another new add-on to the XBox is Kinect. Due to Kinect, I am re-considering selling my XBox 360 console. However, I’m not going to cover Kinect right now, we’ll save that for a future post.
