[Even if you realise full value from Fictionwises micropayment scheme :) ]
When the Ebook should be at least $1.5-$2 cheaper than the paperback at retail just accounting for printing costs. Costs to publisher are multiplied by 3.33 to get their effect on retail price since the price to distributors is 30% or recommended retail.
Hardbacks have added quality and durability to help justify their price increment over paperbacks, which e-books don't.

Toyota Venza Prices Paid and Buying Experience
What were fitzmall and carmax's reasons for price changes? Were they offering alternate cars with different equipment or did they change their original quotes? I have recommended these dealers to others but I'll stop doing that if they are playing "dealer games." Thanks.
jimmy2x Posts: 124I can't speak to Carmax, but have dealt with Fitzmall. Bought new 4Runner last year - most business over the phone and e-mail. Absolutely no surprises, although I did have to listen to the BS upsells from the F&I girl, even though it was a cash deal. Overall a far better buying experience than most.
lal_clt Posts: 27I don't know if it was the agents I encountered on the phone or if my experience was typical of both dealerships. I sent very clear specs to Fitzmall and they gave me a great price. I even double-checked with the agent because that person had given me incorrect information about the cost when ordering vs buying from inventory, and also about getting Michelin tires put on. So I was cautious. I even called the sales manager to verify the price. Two days later when it was time to cut the purchase order, suddenly the price was $1000 higher because the agent had supposedly used the wrong options. At that point I lost faith that they had competent people and I worried that after driving/flying 400 miles, something else would go wrong when it came time to pick up the car. In fact, the day before I had read a post from someone who had traveled to Fitzmall and had major problems with the paperwork when trying to get their license back home.
I contacted Carmax about the same time as Fitzmall and the agent faxed me a sticker for a car they had in stock to show me their prices versus invoice. Interestingly, the price he had on the fax was $300 higher than what was shown on the website. When I pointed this out I got some doubletalk but could not get a clear answer as to the discrepancy. Nevertheless I sent my specs to Carmax and the price I got back was only $28 lower than the car in the fax, but MY sticker was $700 lower than the faxed car. When I brought this up to the agent I got more doubletalk but no clear answer. At that point I gave up and said that I would stay in Charlotte and pay a little more but sleep better. I wish I could send you the emails from both those places - it was almost laughable. I could have saved money by going out of town - Fitzmall WAS $900 lower than Charlotte and Carmax was $500 lower, but that includes the SET doc fees of $599 vs. $99 for NET. Like I said at the beginning, maybe I just got agents who weren't used to pricing an order. I'd be curious to hear of other forum users experiences.
:confuse: Hello all! I've been researching the Venza online for months and now have one overnight for a test drive. Discussed price today. I'm left less than secure that I did well.
V6 Front Wheel Drive, Tropical Sea Metallic
Navigation System
Comfort, Convenience and Secuity Packages
I countered his offer saying I wanted $500 over their invoice and handed him a copy of the pricing certificate from another dealer that read:
You save $1,672 off MSRP
Invoice $29,743
USAA Price Adjustment $500 above invoice
USAA Member Price $30,243
Color Exterior: Tropical Sea Metallic
Interior: Light Gray
Options ·COMFORT PKG (LS)
He returned with his Sales manager and said Congratulations! Then we sat down and he wrote down a Sales price of $32,343.
I'm feeling a little Alice in Wonderland here. I know I'm not a math whiz but instead of $30,243 he gives me $32,343 and I'm supposed to be excited? Am I missing something?
I'm looking forward to the back up camera in the large NAV screen instead of the tiny info screen above it.

Hi linnett,
First off, it looks like your pricing is for two different cars: one with MSRP of $31,915 while the other dealer is offering a Venza with MSRP of $34,999. So there is $3K difference right there. That USAA price cannot be for a V6 Venza with Nav. Comfort, Convenience & Security Packages - the $34,999 is much more realistic. Having said that, you should go to edmunds.com and run the numbers for yourself. You will find that a Venza with an MSRP of $35K has an invoice of around $31K. So your target price of $500 over invoice should be $31,500. Also, be careful with dealer no. 2: Leather is part of the Comfort Package and the JBL Sound System is part of the Navigation package, so be careful that they aren't telling you there are more options on the car then there really are - though the $35K MSRP looks to be accurate. So print out your results from edmunds.com and go back to the dealer and see if you can get another $800 off his price. Or, just go online and request email quotes from several Toyota dealers - both local and some that are a few hours drive (maybe in larger cities). Go with the best deal or have your nearest dealer match the best offer. And skip the extended warranties (unless you plan to abuse the car) and special paint treatments and all that other junk they'll try to sell you - just say NO. Good luck.
Thank you! I was up until five stewing about this and the fact that the ride is not as cushioned or "soft" in the test drive vehicle as I had hoped. We have a Railroad track through my little city and it's unavoidable, but still seriously bumpy in the Venza. Older coastal city and older infrastructure.
I read one opinion where a person found the "ride" of his test drive vehicle and the one he ordered to be very different.
xualum Posts: 4Thanks for all the posts here on Edmunds, it has been a tremendous help. We purchased a Black 6 cyl. FWD Venza with the following:
leather package; convenience package; JBL sound system (comes w/bluetooth); tow prep package; panoramic roof; all mats -- did not have the Toyoguard - as many of them already come with it here in the Southeast (We live in Metro Atlanta)
Price:$32,400 out the door.
A few things that we've learned: You may have specific extras in mind - but be prepared to expect that they're usually loaded with more features than what you may want, or are really stripped down -- at least that's what we're seeing right now. Didn't necessarily want/need JBL sound nor the tow prep package - but this model had the leather, convenience package and pano roof we were wanting, I'm sure that Toyota planned on this, but sometimes it felt overwhelming with all the options. Perhaps because we've driven Hondas in the past (Odyssey/Accord - both 9 years old!) and while there are always "extras" to be had - it seemed more cut and dry with the trim levels, etc. But, I enjoyed doing the research, and with these Edmunds Forums being so helpful, we felt that this was a decent deal. Thanks again for all your valuable tips and advice!
We pick up our Venza on Wednesday -- I cannot wait!
One little question to pose ---- do you think the Venza looks like a station wagon? I do not think so - but my son does, as do a few others. I was just wondering.
I think the Venza is a handsome Camry wagon myself. How was your test drive as far as comfort????
I have a V6 now for a (longer than average) test drive. I live in an older coastal community with old infrastructure. Some roads are smooth as glass, others have bumpy seams every eight feet and the railroad tracks are always bumpy. I had expected to feel more cushioned from all of that than I have. Edmunds discussion of the "ride" was encouraging but I'm fairly bummed. I'm really enthusiastic about everything else about the Venza. Could I have a test drive vehicle that provides a rougher ride than another Venza will? Are :confuse: the roads in my community just too bumpy to bear?
qs933 Posts: 302One little question to pose ---- do you think the Venza looks like a station wagon?
From certain angles, it looks like a station wagon to me. Other angles look almost sedan-like, while yet others look like an SUV. It's an enigma that has puzzled many in my office parking lot.
So far, the people I work with have said my Venza reminds them of the:
- Lexus RX
- Dodge Magnum
- Audi Q7 and Q5
- Camry
At first I really did not like the fact that the Venza really leans towards "station wagon." However, I've come to realize (and maybe notice more) that there are a lot of premium mid-size station wagons on the road. Nice ones. Audi A4s, BMW 3 and 5-series, Saab 9-3, Volvo V-series, etc. The Venza may not be as fancy (or expensive) as those European models, but it certainly holds its own in the "station wagon" category.
Regarding options, I still prefer Toyota's approach to Honda's. With Honda, it's all-or-nothing within the trim-lines. Want larger wheels, Bluetooth or a rear-view camera? You have to get the EX-L or Touring model.
Toyota's approach is more complicated and frustrating at times, but at least you're not always forced into a higher trim level just to get a certain option.
Congratulations on your Venza!
pacpark4 Posts: 3My 2009 Venza V6 Automatic FWD had a MSRP of $35,404 including:
Comfort Package
DVD Navigation Package
Security Package
Panoramic Glass Power Moonroof
Tow Prep Package
Floor Mats & Cargo Mat
Rear Bumper Protector
Color: Magnetic Gray with Gray Leather.
I paid $32,454 + tax & license.
I thought it was a pretty good deal given the dealership only had two Venza's in stock and only 5 in the entire city.
I recommend installing the 3M Protection Package that covers the entire front end from rock chips. My experience in my area, (Northwest), rock chips are common and this film is fantastic from preventing chips on the front painted areas.
Love the car and it definitely turns heads and is a conversation piece!
Looking forward to years of trouble free driving.
In the works soon...
A RED with grey leather, FWD V6, Premium #2, Pano Roof, JBL Audio, Mats and Bumper protector for $32,400.

Looking for a tubular dog/pet barrier for the rear end - Any leads???
gluck Posts: 23I test drove the 4cyl. and to my surprise it driver pretty good. The car is heavy but the new 4 cyl. engine does a decent job. I drove the base model which had no bells and whistles. The thing that bugged me was the noise. The engine was pretty loud. I was expecting a sluggish ride but it wasn't the car. I hear the V6 is smoother.
Anyway the dealers are keeping the inventory low and the ones out there aren't coming with many options. The dealer was ready to give me $100 over invoice right away. The MSRP was $27K and he said the invoice was $25K so it was like 10% off MSRP right away. I think I can do better. I am holding out for a one with smart key push button start.
Has anyone had any better exp. with the ride or price?
I just left the Toyota dealership in Westport, CT and was very interested in a 2009 AWD 6 cylinder Venza with leather seats and a rear camera. The dealer stuck to the sticker price like he was attached to it with crazy glue! I'm not a ditzy blonde, so I know there must be a way to get the dealership to give me a better price. PLEASE help!
...and thanks for your help!
Try this, Contact 3 or 4 dealers by email or phone tell them what you want and ask for there best price and tell them your checking with other dealers and who ever gives you the best price thats where you will buy it. Start the bidding war!!!
Thats what I did and got evrything I wanted then some. My local dealer wanted to charge me $35000 before ttl with only package 1 v6FWD, Tow prep, mudgaurds,
I bought for $33508 package 2, Nav, Panoramic roof, mudgaurds, mats,tow prep, tint, toyo gaurd plus, with tax and fees paid $35187
MSRP was $38112 Bought mine in Alabama
Hey jvajnky-
Heartland Toyota in Bremerton is where I ordered our Venza.
Nice folks overall. If I remember correctly, the "price" of AWD over FWD was $1450 at the MSRP differential. I got my FWD with options I listed in an earlier post for $32,400 - the same trim in AWD should invoice out around $33,800 or less (I am adding MSRP AWD #s to invoice #s - adjust accordingly!)
I was almost ready to FLY to Maryland and DRIVE back after looking at the internet pricing from Fitzmall... I used this as a bargaining chip at Heartland...
Best of luck to you.

"Do we want the freewheeling internet that characterized its early years, or a tightly regulated and controlled internet, subject to the prosecutorial whims of the administration of the day?"
We (or at least I) want a freewheeling internet. There are, of course, things that should be illegal regardless of whether the internet is involved (like the canonical example of child pornography) , but gambling? Surely the DOJ can find better things to do with their time and my tax money.
"Antigua thus could sell unlicensed copies of American movies or software, for example, to compensate itself for losses resulting from the American actions."

By that time, the hardware required to run Vista will have fallen to a reasonable price, and Microsoft will have had time to hammer it into a halfway-decent OS.

Efficacy Study of Weekly Topotecan With Cisplatin in Advanced Stage or Recurrent Cervical Cancer
- Full Text View

- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of topotecan when given weekly with cisplatin in patients with persistent, recurrent, or advanced stage cervical cancer. Secondary purposes are to describe the toxicity profile in patients with persistent, recurrent, or advanced stage cervical cancer treated with the combination of topotecan when given weekly with cisplatin and to determine the response rate and time to progression in patients with persistent, recurrent, or advanced stage cervical cancer treated with the combination of topotecan when given weekly with cisplatin.
Cervix Cancer
Drug: Topotecan
Drug: Cisplatin
Phase 1
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Non-Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|A Phase I Study of Weekly Topotecan With Cisplatin for the Management of Advanced Stage or Recurrent Carcinoma of the Cervix
- MTD of topotecan when given weekly with cisplatin
- Toxicity profile in patients treated with the combination of topotecan when given weekly with cisplatin
- Response rate and time to progression
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|July 2005
Patients diagnosed with recurrent cervical cancer generally have limited options for cure. Occasionally, radiation therapy may be utilized in localized recurrent disease with curative intent; however, most patients are not candidates for curative therapy secondary to disseminated disease, and thus are frequently treated with palliative chemotherapy. Initial experiences with chemotherapy in this clinical setting demonstrated cisplatin to be an active agent. Subsequent trials using combinations of cisplatin and ifosfamide or paclitaxel demonstrated higher response rates compared to cisplatin alone but did not demonstrate an improvement in overall survival. Topotecan is a topoisomerase I inhibitor that has been used in the management of cervical and ovarian cancer. Several phase II studies have demonstrated topotecan to be an active agent in cervical cancer. In an effort to ameliorate toxicity noted with 3-5 day dosing regimens of topotecan, investigators have evaluated weekly dosing of topotecan. Thus far, the toxicity of weekly topotecan dosing in cervical cancer has not been evaluated. In this study, topotecan will be given weekly at escalating dose levels starting at 2.0 mb/m2 with standard cisplatin at 50 mg/m2 every 21 days. This study will help to determine acceptable dosing for the combination of weekly topotecan and cisplatin in patients with persistent, recurrent, or advanced stage cervical cancer which can then be utilized in a cohort of patients with cervical cancer in a phase II study.

With all the chemicals and stuff we are left to sort through when shopping for healthy foods for ourselves and families, the task can be very challenging.
If you are a smartphone user, I highly recommend the FOODUCATE APP. It does a pretty good job helping at the store. It is even working on creating database information on GMO products.
Www.fooducate.com is awesome too! Discovered that after the app. It's very easy to use!
Another website I get daily email from, that is often helpful is www.greatist.com some days I just delete without reading, but other days they have great information. One of the things I really like about their info is an extensive works cited at the end of each article.
Here is the one I got today. It is helping decipher through the labels on food products.
The list of ingredients I try to avoid:
ALL artificial sweeteners
High fructose corn syrup
MSG (tricky, because it has 13-14 names - some seeming to be good for you.)
There are others I try to limit as well.. But those are my biggest.
What do you look for when reading nutrition labels?
The person in my life that I believe is the most Beautiful person is My Sister!
She walked in the breast cancer 3 day in August this year. This was in my honor. I am a 1 year survivor. She had an amazing adventure and shared some pictures, tears and laughter with me. I am so blessed to have the sister I have. She is an amazing person..
Here's the proof ;)
I call this picture "Beautiful Feet"
She took this picture of her own feet right after she finished the 3 day walk. The rose was given to her as she crossed the finish line.
My sparkpage had not been updated since I was active with sparkpeople several years ago. I had great success and fell off the wagon. The pictures and content were from around 2008. I finally took the time to update some pictures.
I left a lot of the text the same, but take a look at the pictures. :D
This was one of my first, "I feel good about me" pictures. I was down about 20 lbs here.
Those of you who are in my "Weekly Challenge(s)" team have been hearing all about my new garden for about a month. I am so happy with it!
I started from scratch this spring. I decided to go with a "Square Foot Garden" method. These are raised bed gardens that are designed to not be stepped in. I have the equivalent of 4 square foot gardens. Each of my boxes measures 4'x8'. The method divides each 4x4 section into square foot spaces. That gives 32 spaces for plants in each of my boxes. This garden doesn't require the amount of space a traditional "row garden" requires.
My goal is to can my own Salsa this fall. I am on the hunt for a good recipe. If anyone has one, please let me know.
In my garden I have:
4 Roma Tomato
12 peppers (red, green, yellow)
4 jalapeno peppers
4 broccoli
4 cauliflower
4 zucchini
4 yellow summer squash
12 peas
8 green beans
carrots (2 squares)
beets (2 squares)
lettuce - red leaf
4 celery
sweet potato (3 squares)
regular potato (1 square)
marigolds (2 squares) - not going to eat these...but they are extremely beneficial to the garden
I still have 2 squares to fill. I don't know what I am going to put in them yet.
In the picture, the red pots are my Herb garden.
If I knew who each of you were, I would thank you personally. I just got an email from SparkPeople letting me know that I have lots of people think I am a "SparkPeople Motivator"
Thank you!
If there is anything I can do to help any of you along this journey, please let me know.
I love my Sparklers and everything here on SparkPeople! You guys are the best!

Briatore: Alonso not tempted to leave Ferrari
4 August 2013 – Flavio Briatore says that Fernando Alonso is not tempted to leave Ferrari for Red Bull next year, and that the Spaniard's comments about wanting 'someone else's car' were nothing out of the ordinary when considering the mindset of competitive drivers.
With both Red Bull and Alonso refusing to quash rumours of a potential move, speculation regarding the Spaniard's future reached a head in the days after the Hungarian Grand Prix, with Ferrari Chairman Luca di Montezemolo also issuing a firm rebuke to his driver. Nevertheless, Briatore, who acts as Alonso's manager, remains confident that the two-time champion will remain at the Maranello-based outfit for the foreseeable future.
In an interview in Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italian said: "Fernando has a contract and contracts must be respected. There is no temptation [to leave Ferrari] whatsoever. It's normal for a racing driver to desire a competitive car and the team must work hard to supply it. End of story.
"Alonso has never said he wants to leave. Ferrari and Alonso remain a winning pairing. He just needs to have a car that allows him to start from the top two rows."
Briatore also brushed aside observations that his driver would struggle if placed alongside a tougher team-mate such as Sebastian Vettel, instead pinning the blame on McLaren for the difficult year endured by Alonso when he was partnered with Lewis Hamilton in 2007.
"Fernando has never had problems racing with anyone else," he claimed. "He's like Senna in that respect. Ayrton would say 'put anyone next to me', and that's what Alonso is like. McLaren did everything to create confusion. A top team must be able to manage two strong drivers."

DEFINITION of 'Empirical Probability'
A form of probability that is based on some event occurring, which is calculated using collected empirical evidence. An empirical probability is closely related to the relative frequency in a given probability distribution.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Empirical Probability'
In order for a theory to be proved or disproved, empirical evidence must be collected. An empirical study will be performed using actual market data. For example, many empirical studies have been conducted on the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), and the results are slightly mixed.
In some analyses, the model does hold in real world situations, but most studies have disproved the model for projecting returns. Although the model is not completely valid, that is not to say there is no utility associated with using the CAPM. For instance, the CAPM is often used to estimate a company's weighted average cost of capital.

Gigabyte GA-X99-UD4 Motherboard Review
Introduction When it comes to Intel's Extreme or "Enthusiast" series of motherboards and processors, like the X79 and its Ivy-Bridge-E combo, we seem to get a bit more time between updates. Intel initially launched its X79 Chipset with Sandy-Bridge-E, then 18 months later Ivy-Bridge-E hit store shelves without a major Chipset change. Unlike its mainstream Z series Chipset, which has seen updates almost every 12 months or so (give or take a few months), the X79 chipset is roughly 3 years old now. Today we have the new X99 Chipset which promises a large improvement over its predecessor X79. With the rise of DDR4 memory and demand for faster and larger bandwidth capabilities, it was only a matter of time. As we dig a little deeper today, we will talk a little more about this Chipset later. Along with the new Chipset comes a newly released processor refresh. The X99 Chipset has made some other improvements which now allow users to sport the new Intel Haswell-E Processor. This CPU starts with a 6core for the HT 5820K, 6core for the HT 5930K, and lastly an 8core for the HT 5960X with a Socket 2011-3. Of course with these changes, it has pre-empted the design of new motherboards, so we now have the chance to put the Gigabyte X99-UD4 motherboard to the test and see if the improvements are going to be worth the upgrade. In recent years, Gigabyte has grown to be one of the most recommended brands. The reputation of great performance to value has put them on ...
Thermaltake Water 3.0 Ultimate 360mm LCS Review
Introduction In the last few years, the CLC (Closed Loop Cooler) market has taken a big jump in market share… but we have only seen a few unique designs due to a patent set by Asetek on its pump/block design. This has limited a number of manufacturers from producing similar designs without running into this patent issue. This leaves us with companies that are re-branding their coolers and all while, Asetek hasn't developed anything new or really exciting recently. We have seen CLC coolers with the same designs ranging with 120mm, 240mm and even 280mm rads with thickness ranging from 25-50mm. While each maker has attempted to add there own flare to each of these designs, these units are all essentially the same or very similar. While the patent still has not changed, we are excited to see that Thermaltake took a leap forward in making a change in this arena and we have the Thermaltake Water 3.0 Ultimate CLC cooler. The first and most notable performance change here is the larger radiator with support of 3x 120mm fans essentially making this the largest radiator of 360mm with a first triple 120mm CLC system. As we continue forward, we are going to give you the full details and we we are excited to see a change and can't wait to see how it does. But, before we do that… Let's talk a little about Thermaltake: Our Mission – Delivering the perfect user experience Every myth starts out as a dream, and at the beginning of every legend is a desire. T...
Kingston HyperX Cloud Headset Review
Introduction Headsets are practically a dime a dozen in today's market. With the large variety available on the net, it makes it tough for us to filter out the good ones from the bad ones. As PC enthusiasts we love our games and our music. We want to blast our ears without waking up the neighbors or maybe our significant other sitting next to us. Today we will be adding more choices to the mix by introducing a new headset from Kingston, called the HyperX Cloud. Kingston has been a name we have come to know in the PC industry, especially with system memory products. However, with the growing number of PC peripherals and accessories, it was only a matter of time before Kingston started to tap their brand cache and jump into this arena too. With the e-sports crowd growing in popularity, Kingston saw an opportunity. They created a division called "HyperX." Under the HyperX branding, Kingston is now developing accessories and peripherals to feed this growing group. This new HyperX Cloud Headset is one of those products. Let's put it to the test and see how well it holds up against the competition. Before we move forward, let's read a bit about Kingston: "Founded in 1987 with a single product offering, Kingston Technology now offers more than 2,000 memory products that support nearly every device that uses memory, from computers, servers and printers to MP3 players, digital cameras and cell phones. In 2007, the company's sales exceeded $4.5 billion....
ASUS ROG Maximus VII Formula Motherboard Review
Introduction A few months back we took a look at the ASUS Maximus VII Hero Motherboard (HERE) . The Maximus VII Hero, which is part of ASUS' mid range Republic of Gamer's line, took home the Editors Choice award for its great performance and outstanding aesthetics. However, that was only the tip of the iceberg for the ROG line up. Today… we have the chance to take a look at ASUS' flagship motherboard the ASUS Maximus VII Formula. We are really excited to start putting this motherboard to the test. Its aesthetics alone really stand out, especially its Armor Shield. If you are an water cooling enthusiast, the hybrid CrossChill Cooling VRM block is also a great feature. Can the ASUS ROG Maximus VII Formula live up to its little brother the Hero and earn another Editor's Choice Award? Let's dive in and take a look. But before we do, let's here a word from ASUS. Origin of the Name "Asus" ASUS comes from the last four letters of Pegasus, the winged horse in Greek mythology that represents the inspiration of art and learning. ASUS embodies the strength, creative spirit and purity symbolized by this regal and agile mythical creature, soaring to new heights of quality and innovation with each product it introduces to the market.
NZXT S340 Chassis Teaser
A few days ago, NZXT teased us with their latest release of the NZXT S340 Chassis. Our first impressions with its latest addition is WOW! Talk about "value" with a retail price of right around $69.99 USD. With most Press Release we only get a glimpse of what to expect, but this time around, it is bit different. To make a long story short, I had been looking for a replacement panel for my NZXT Phantom P630 that I had managed to damage. So I took to NZXT's website to purchase the replacement panel. After short chat with customer service rep Lauren Kim regarding my matter, she was able to help me by warrantying my existing panel and offered a replacement for FREE, talk about outstanding customer service! Since I was local to the NZXT headquarters, I had offered to come pick up the panel to save on shipping cost. During my visit, I managed to catch Eric Henry, a NZXT Community Rep at the office since it was still during business hours. Eric was nice enough to give me a short tour and I was able to meet with the Mitch from PR and the NZXT Staff. Great people by the way! While I was here, we were able to get first hand look at the NZXT S340 Chassis up close and personal. While the one they had on display was still a prototype, it was nice to see first hand what to expect before we receive our review sample. Here are some pictures of the NZXT S340 during our visit (sorry about the quality, I only had my cell phone with me at the time since the visit really was u...
Streacom FC8 EVO Fanless Chassis Review
Introduction With the growing industry of digital media and streaming devices, the world of compact designed media players and HTPCs have grown quite a bit over the last few years. While some can suffice with a simple media device like the Roku, Western Digital Media Box and even the Chrome TV, these devices can sometimes only satisfy the basic general consumers' needs. What about those in need of a little more power and flexibility? This is where the growing SFF (small form factor) HTPC market comes into play. Some will say you can build an HTPC with some basic PC components and drop them into a computer case and call it a day, but who wants a junky or bulky PC tower sitting in their entertainment center looking out of place. For users like us, we like our media center to be the center of attention… so you probably want something a little more aesthetically pleasing. Today, we have chance to look at a uniquely designed SFF PC chassis that can operate in complete silence. We have on our test table today the Streacom FC8 Evo Fanless Chassis. Also, when we refer to it being silent, we really mean it, because the Streacom FC8 Evo case features a completely fanless design. Perhaps its sleek aesthetics will prove to be a talking point of your entertainment center. Let's review it and find out… Before we move forward with the exciting features, let's first talk about who Streacom is: History Streacom was founded in 2010 by a small but experi...
Biostar HiFi Z97WE Motherboard Review
Introduction The Z97 chipset motherboards have now gone into full swing, and with the Haswell refresh we saw a lot of new flavor in motherboard choices this time around. Today, we are going to be looking at the Biostar HiFi Z97WE Motherboard. At first glance, we have to be honest here… we didn't really like the color combination Biostar used with the HiFi Z97WE Motherboard. The gold heatsinks with its yellow and black accents really don't go well together aesthetically speaking. However, putting the aesthetics aside we are going to put the Biostar HiFi Z97WE to the test in terms of performance and see how well it stacks up with other Z97 Motherboards we have already tested. So before we dive in for a closer look, let's talk about who Biostar is: In 1980,the IT industry was growing at a phenomenal rate. With wide experience in buying and selling electronic parts as well as researching on future demands for mainboards and add-on cards , the founder of BIOSTAR GROUP,established BIOSTAR MICROTECH INTERNATIONAL CORP in 1986. In the early years, BIOSTAR concentrated on the manufacture of mainboards built for XT form factor. To maintain steady business growth, BIOSTAR managed to keep a large portion of its capital and manpower invested on the design and development of new products, which at the same time has enabled it to stay competitive in the rapid evolution of the computer industry. BIOSTAR has enriched its competence in the design and manufacture of p...
MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC Motherboard Review
A few months ago we had the honor of reviewing the new MSI Z97 Gaming 5 motherboards during the launch of the Z97 chipset. Today, we are here again to look at another MSI motherboard. We have MSI's flagship Gaming Motherboard the MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC. At first glance the MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC motherboard looks rather close aesthetically to the Gaming 5 we reviewed. While the looks are similiar, the Gaming 9 has some additional features and aesthetic improvements that make it stand out on its own. The first obvious improvement on the Gaming 9 motherboard is the shield that covers the rear I/O port section and the isolated PCB for its sound card. During the Z97 chipset many manufacturers started to switch over to using higher quality Japanese capacitors and while the caps were much better in quality they looked rather ugly on many of the new boards. It was nice to see that MSI designed the Gaming 9 series motherboard with the shield to cover up that section making the motherboard look much sexier. Let's dive in and put the MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC Motherboard to the test and see how it performed against its little brother the Gaming 5. But before we do that, let's talk a little about who MSI is.
ASRock FaTal1ty Z97 Killer Series Motherboard Review
Introduction Over the last few years we have seen ASRock gain movement in the motherboard arena. They have developed and revamped some rock solid motherboards at a very affordable price. In the past, we have seen many flagship motherboards from ASRock that have been top performers when it comes to overclocking and stability. Not only has ASRock performed well in the past, they have great aesthetic appeal too. Today, we have a chance to look at their newest variation from their already popular Fatal1ty series. This is the ASRock Fatal1ty Z97 Killer Series Motherboard. With Haswell's refresh chipset in full swing, we have tested a number of great performing motherboards. But today, the ASRock Fatal1ty Z97 Killer Series has another advantage in this arena due to its aggressive pricing. So let's move forward and put this motherboard to the test and see what it can do with our Intel 4770K Haswell Processor. Just in case you are unfamiliar with ASRock, let's take a look at who they are first: ASRock Inc. is established in 2002, specialized in the field of motherboards. ASRock strives to build up its own brand. With the 3C design concept, "Creativity, Consideration, Cost-effectiveness", the company explores the limit of motherboards manufacturing while paying attention on the eco issue at the same time, developing products with the consideration of eco-friendly concept. ASRock has been growing fast and become world third largest motherboard ...
Gigabyte Z97X-SLI Motherboard Review
Gigabyte as a motherboard manufacturer has been very successful over the last decade, and the last few years have only served to solidify that. In fact, Gigabyte has taken things a step further with their more recent motherboard releases. Their design team has revamped the styling and improved the lineup with feature-rich variations. Giagbyte's popular UDX series motherboards are frequently one of the first considered motherboards on the market since the Z77 release. With Gigabyte's Haswell refresh, the Z97 chipset, they aim to continue that tradition. Today we are going to be looking at the Z97X-SLI motherboard. By the name, it appears Gigabyte has geared this motherboard towards SLI as its defining feature. However, there is more than meets the eye. At a glance, this board looks a little more simplified when compared to the UDX series board. Will it pack the same punch? We are going to put the Z97X-SLI to the test to see how it stacks up to Gigabyte's reputation.
Enermax ETS-N30 TAA CPU Cooler Review
Introduction Aftermarket CPU Air Coolers flood the market with many options and styles today. With the vast number of options, we know that competition is fierce. Today, we are going to be looking at the Enermax ETS-N30 CPU cooler that was designed for the mid-range users who aren't looking to spend a great deal of money. The Enermax ETS-N30 CPU Air Cooler sports a 92mm blue LED fan with a copper based heatsink that not only looks good, but also fits the bill for those in a budget crunch. Let's take a look at the Enermax ETS-N30 CPU Cooler and what is has to offer. Before we do that, let's talk little about who Enermax is: Enermax Technology Corporation is a world-renowned PC Power Supply Unit manufacturer. Since our establishment in 1990, we provide power supply products and peripherals like chassis, cooler, fan and keyboard with excellent quality and have won recognitions of consumers around the world.

Enermax Liqtech 240 & Liqmax 120 CPU Cooler Review
All in one liquid cooling units are among the popular cooling solutions recently. With AIO units gaining popularity due to their cost to performance ratio, it doesn't come as a surprise. If we look back a mere 2 years ago, liquid AIO cooling units were few and far between, and only a hand of manufacturers offered this type cooling solution. However, today we find AIO units flooding the market, and selecting the right one can be a hard choice with so many readily available. Today are going to be looking at 2 units from Enermax that recently joined in on this market. We have the Enermax Liqtech 240 and Liqmax 120S AIO cooling units on the test bench. While choosing AIO units should be based on cooling performance, sometimes we find that aesthetics and software can be a deciding factor as well. Let's put both these units on our bench for testing today, but before we do that, let's talk about Enermax for just a moment.
ASUS Z97 Maximus VII Hero Motherboard Review
ROG is the popular abbreviation for Asus' Republic of Gamers line of PC enthusiast products. The ROG series motherboards started out as the flagship line of the ASUS series motherboards as far back as the X58 chipset. Since then, it has featured the signature red and black aesthetic theme, which has carried on over the last few years, and has continued due to its popularity and success. Since that time, Asus has made several variations of their ROG line for multiple price points. Today, we are going to be looking at the ASUS Z97 Maximus VII Hero. This motherboard is the evolution of the previous Maximus Hero line, which was originally developed for the more budget conscious consumer during the Z87 chipset launch. With on-going success, ASUS continues to bring the Maximus Hero line, which is now feature packed and is available for any board within its price point. Let's put the ASUS Z97 Maximus VII Hero to the test to see if it can meet the great performance that ASUS is known for.
MSI Z97 Gaming 5 Motherboard Review
With the new Intel Processors on the horizon, motherboard manufacturers have gone into full force with the new updated chipsets. Today we are going to be looking at the MSI Z97 Gaming 5 Motherboard. MSI really took the market strong since its release of the Z77 Gaming addition motherboards and has since grown its gamer series design into multiple platforms. With the Z87 chipset, MSI really made some great improvements not only in their design and aesthetics, but they also really stepped it up with an intuitive software system and improved GUI interface across the board. Today, we are going to put their newly developed MSI Z97 Gaming 5 motherboard to the test. While the Gaming 5 is not the flagship motherboard, we are still very excited to see what updates this will bring to the future. Let's dive right in!

Quick Link: Angus Hyland's Definitive Guide "Symbol" to Be Published in Handy Mini Edition
A miniature edition of Symbol is due to be published in August. Authored by Pentagram partner Angus Hyland, with Steven Bateman, it condenses the appeal of the original 2011 book into a new, smaller format.
"The idea behind the book is to explore the visual language of symbols according to their most basic element: form," Hyland writes. "We have brought together symbols conceived all over the world, in different times and for different purposes, and categorized them by visual types."
The book lays these symbols out in a manner divested of all agendas, meanings, and messages that might be given by their customary contexts, isolating them so that the reader can enjoy them as a pictorial language in their own right.

Angus Hyland designed the first edition of the book which had an initial run of only 2,000 copies. The design featured a semi-transparent flesh-textured jacket over a black and white image.

Autumn is now here which sets the tone for the release of two new Cass Art bags, Orange Lake Deep and Ultramarine, created by Angus Hyland with the help of Cass Art designer and Pentagram Alumni Jamie Hearn.
In a collaboration between Pentagram, Cass Art and Blubolt, Angus Hyland and his team designed Cass Art's new e-commerce platform.
Cass Art was keen to develop an online retail platform to increase reach, visibility and sales. The main aim was to create a website that not only sold products but also demonstrated Cass Art's specialty knowledge in the artist supplier arena. A key part of the brief was make sure that the Cass Art experience customers received in-store was translated to an online platform and that this retained all brand elements previously developed by Hyland and fellow Pentagram partner, William Russell.
