A passive 60Hz 3D monitor from AOC
Subject: Displays | June 19, 2012 - 04:19 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: 3d vision, AOC, d2357Ph, passive 3d, 1080p, led backlight
The AOC d2357Ph has a nice array of inputs, D-Sub, DVI-D/HDMI, Composite, Component S-Video and Display Port are all present which will allow you to use this on almost any system. On the other hand as it is a passive 3D monitor and not a 120Hz display, which R&B Mods refers to as 'poor man's 3D' and while it does offer 3D it is not as impressive as active solutions. 2D picture quality was quite good, with a minimum of backbleed and the screen is physically quite thin which could be an advantage for some users. Check out the full review for more information.
"3D is the latest trend and today we are looking at a 3D screen from AOC; who is also one of our new sponsors. AOC's d2357Ph is an incredibly thin monitor with LED backlighting, a Full HD resolution and the ability to display passive 3D images. What kind of 3D quality can we expect from it? Stay tuned and we will figure it out."

AFDS 2012: AMD Wireless Display to compete against Intel WiDi with open standards
Subject: General Tech, Processors, Displays | June 10, 2012 - 06:45 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: widi, Intel, awd, amd wireless display, amd, AFDS
While perusing through the listings and descriptions of sessions and presentations for the upcoming AMD Fusion Developer Summit, I came across an interesting one that surprised me. Tomorrow, June 11th, at 5:15pm PST, you can stop by the Grand Hyatt in Bellevue to learn about the upcoming AMD Wireless Display technology.
AWD (AMD Wireless Display) is a multiple-platform application family to enable wireless display technologies much in the same way that Intel has been pushing with WiDi. While Intel's take on it requires very specific Intel wireless controllers and is only recently, with the release of Ivy Bridge, getting the full-steam push from Intel, AMD's take on it is quite different.
Intel introduced WiDi in 2010
According to the brief on this AFDS session, AMD wants to create an API and SDKs for application developers to integrate AWD into software and to leverage the WiFi Alliance for an open-standards compliant front-end. Using AMD APUs, the goal is provide lower latency for encoded video and audio while still using the required MPEG2TS wrapper. We are also likely to learn that AMD hopes to make AWD open to a wider array of wireless devices.
AMD often takes this "open" approach to new technologies with mixed results - CUDA has been in place for many years while the adoption of OpenCL is only starting to take hold and 3D Vision still is the standard for 3D gaming on the PC.
After having quite a few chances to use Intel's Wireless Display (WiDi) technology myself I can definitely say that the wireless approach is the one I am most excited with and that has the most potential to revolutionize the way we work with displays and computing devices. I am eager to see what partners AMD has been working with and what demonstrations they will have for AWD next week.
ASUS preps ThunderboltEX add-in card for Z77 and H77 motherboards
Subject: Motherboards, Displays | June 4, 2012 - 09:30 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: Z77, thunderboltex, thunderbolt, h77, computex, asus
Ever since we posted our series of videos with ASUS on the new Z77 chipset and the features ASUS was introducing on their P8Z77 lineup, we have had countless questions about the Thunderbolt header, the implementation and finally the required add-on card to enable it. Well thankfully at Computex this week ASUS is revealing the product that users of the P8Z77 motherboards will need to enable the Thunderbolt connection, the ASUS ThunderboltEX.
Even though we have already had some hands-on time with the new ASUS P8Z77-V Premium motherboard that integrates a Thunderbolt header on the board directly, the rest of the P8Z77-V line has a 9-pin header labeled "TB_header" that will allow users to purchase the ThunderboltEX card and enable the technology in their system. ASUS was the only company to really plan ahead for Thunderbolt technology across the entire series of Z77 motherboards and as such should enjoy the feature benefits of TB for some time.
The ThunderboltEX will plug into the bottom PCIe slot using up the x4 connection and will be required to use a header cable to connect to the TB_header shown above. This header serves a dual purpose - it allows the integrated graphics of the Ivy Bridge (and even discrete graphics) to pass through to the ThunderboltEX card and then out to either a Thunderbolt enabled display or a DisplayPort monitor in a daisy chain of devices. It also allows ASUS to make sure this card is ONLY used on their own lineup of motherboards - sorry, you won't be able to buy the ASUS ThunderboltEX and use it on your Gigabyte or MSI or even your non "TB_header" ASUS motherboard.
You will also have to install an included full-size DisplayPort cable from the output on the Z77 motherboard back panel to the full-size DP input on the ThunderboltEX itself. This allows the pass through of all the video data.
Once everything is configured, users will have a full speed 10 Gbps ready Thunderbolt connection to use with external storage, break out boxes and other accessories coming down the pipeline rapidly. ASUS claims this implementation will still support 6 daisy-chained devices with a seventh device as either a Thunderbolt or mini-DisplayPort monitor. Even better, hot plug support will still be enabled!
ASUS stands committed to the belief that motherboard design is not just about pure spec but ensuring a quality design and overall implementation. This is achieved through many means such as sensible layout, flexible I/O connectivity and robust control over parameters of operation. In addition foresight in design can play an important role. ASUS recently launched the world's first certified native Thunderbolt motherboard with the P8Z77-V Premium. While the Premium leads the industry in respect to connectivity and overall functionality it carries a flagship price for its premium feature set. ASUS had kept this in mind along with thinking about how to best support the advanced new interconnect that is Thunderbolt. With this in mind ASUS is proud to unveil its exclusive Thunderbolt upgrade solution for its line of Z77 and H77 motherboards. The ThunderboltEX card is the first add-on card on the market enabling an easy way to upgrade ASUS motherboards with the latest I/O. This is proof in having foresight in design as compatible boards had to have a special TB header in place to support this upgrade.
Currently, the ThunderboltEX is awaiting Thunderbolt device certification and ASUS will obviously announce when that occurs.
Obviously this implementation of Thunderbolt is not as elegant as the one you will find on the ASUS Premium Z77 motherboard or the MSI Z77A-GD80, but it does enable other ASUS Z77 motherboard users to add the feature to their systems without REQUIRING to the cost up front to everyone. It does remind me a little bit of the first days of ATI CrossFire but I think most of you would agree that this solution is better than forcing users to buy a $450 motherboard.
I don't have any information on pricing or availability but you can be sure as soon as our questions are answered by ASUS we will update this post!

HP's 2311xi, a cheap IPS monitor currently on sale for a low price
Subject: Displays | May 30, 2012 - 03:05 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: led backlight, ips display, HP 2311xi, 1080p
HP's 2311xi e-IPS monitor is LED-backlit and has a native resolution of 1920x1080, giving you much better viewing angles than more commonly found TN displays, though it does sacrifice refresh rate making this display less attractive to gamers. Overall it seems somehow behind the times, while it has HDMI, DVI and VGA inputs HP left out DisplayPort which is becoming more commonly used on both graphics cards and prebuilt machines. TechReviewSource also describes it as having limited adjustment capabilities which is likely to frustrate professional users. Overall it seems that HP could have done a better job on this $200+ monitor, though HP is currently selling it with an $80 rebate making it a bit more attractive.
"The HP 2311xi isn't your typical 23-inch LED monitor. It has an extremely wide viewing angle, a beautiful IPS display and lots of connections that include HDMI. It is a full 1080p HD display that provides a very good looking image but it lacks ergonomic adjustments."

Windows 8 gives a little more attention to multiple monitors. Oh look -- a feature for traditional PCs.
Subject: General Tech, Displays | May 24, 2012 - 08:22 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: windows 8, multi monitor
PC Mag highlights enhanced support for multiple monitor systems in the upcoming Windows 8 Release Preview. It is like Microsoft has finally thrown a bone to the desktop and to a lesser extent, the laptop. Some features that were mentioned in the article have been around for a while, however.
If you have given the gift of a multiple monitor setup -- do not expect a take-backsies without a fight.
Chloe Albanesius of PC Mag wrote an article which outlines what enhanced support multiple monitor users will experience if they move to Windows 8. A refreshing suspend of the ctrl-alt-deleterious news. Or maybe Microsoft was just afraid of being attacked with vestigial display cables?
Just think of the possibilities of per-monitor backgrounds… a shrine just for Josh...
The article opens with a description of the author's triple monitor setup. Oddly enough my layout is very often an exact mirror image of her layout, horizontally. I would not be surprised if that choice was due to my left-handedness -- very amused, but not surprised.
Windows 8 will make it easy to load different backgrounds for each monitor but earlier versions were capable of that for as long as I could remember. The trick is to create a single very large background image in a program like Photoshop or The GIMP. This very large image must have the same dimensions as the sum of your monitor resolutions horizontally by the sum of your monitor resolutions vertically. The top left of that image is the top left of your "primary" monitor. Fill in the backgrounds wherever the desired monitor falls on that grid -- making sure to put whatever is above and to the left of the top left corner of the primary monitor at the extreme right and bottom. Set that background to "tiled" and you are set.
Notice how I never said that making it easier would be unwelcomed rather just that it was already possible.
The more important features include the ability to enable the taskbar on each monitor and customize how icons will appear for each display. That, combined with enabling corner context support for each monitor should help alleviate some of the juggling over real estate on the primary monitor.
You should be able to see all the changes for multiple monitor users in the upcoming Windows 8 Release Preview.
That is, of course, unless Microsoft ends up starting from scratch before they launch -- again.
De-bezel your monitor, void your warranty and run the risk of killing your LCD ... but no bezels!
Subject: Displays | May 11, 2012 - 01:18 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: DIY, Alienware OptX AW2310, mod
When EyeFinity and NVIDIA Surround first hit the market we were promised LCDs specifically designed to have tiny bezels so that your multiple monitor gaming experience would be enhanced. These monitors are still few and far between and even if you track one down their scarcity guarantees a high price. That is probably what prompted Tweaktown to pick up scraper and hacksaw and carve up their Alienware displays' bezels. This is of course something to be done with the full knowledge that you may well destroy your monitor but if you want gaming like in the picture below you might have to risk it.

"Just" Picked Up: Datacolor Spyder4PRO
Subject: General Tech, Displays | May 4, 2012 - 05:18 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: colorimeter, monitor
Just Delivered is a class of articles at PC Perspective where we share what crosses into our offices, labs, houses, or nearby unguarded front porches. Today we put up with none of that. Two days ago I got off my lazy butt long enough to drive to a store to purchase a Datacolor Spyder4PRO monitor calibration device. Sure, I could have walked but -- let's not get crazy now.
Part of doing illustration work online involves knowing how it will be viewed by the masses. Everyone will view it somewhat differently due to more-than-slight variations in their displays.
Properly calibrating your monitor to what is considered convention is difficult and not something many users do. Hardware and software exist to measure your monitor and adjust your color profiles to match. Calibrated color profiles often lose brightness and vibrancy although they are not to look good -- they are designed to look consistent.
After a couple of years of off-and-on browsing web forums for opinions on which colorimeter is the best I realized that I would be just as far ahead with a random number generator. I eventually just went with the gut and chose the Datacolor Spyder4PRO.
Of course on the way home an oncoming car entered my lane to pass a bus.
It almost served me right for not leaving the whole "going outside" thing to the mail people.
Out of the box, installation was quite simple. I did have one annoyance with inputting my serial number: apparently when you input your serial number and activate online they return to you your CD key. Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like if I were to reinstall the application I could not use the serial number that is safe and sound with the unit but rather recall the key I was given just then. That seems like a very bad method to enforce DRM -- although let's face it, I hate DRM regardless of its form -- but thankfully I have secure notes in LastPass for situations like these.
I calibrated the three monitors very easily. My primary monitor, the Samsung SyncMaster XL2370, required two calibrations to be properly set although I believe that was my fault. Now all three monitors quite closely align to one another and seem to work well for test images in color managed applications.
My one complaint about the product itself is that it has a suction cup mount, but no suction cup. Really -- your device is almost 200$ and you cheap out on a couple-cent suction cup? Where am I even supposed to find a suction cup that will fit it? I mean, it is possible that there was an error with my package although it was sealed. Maybe it was only for the Elite package?
Really a suction cup is not necessary anyway -- they provide a counterweight on the cable to have it hang from the top of your monitor… but it is not as stable as a suction cup.
MonMount's affordable triple display mount
Subject: Displays | April 26, 2012 - 01:30 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: triple, monitor mount, mount, multi monitor, MonMount, LCD-1930 Triple
For just under $50 the MonMount LCD-1930 Triple LCD Monitor Stand gives you a way to mount three monitors of up to 22" to a desk, far less expensive than other mounts on the market. It may look minimalist but the VESA mounts can rotate between portrait and landscape and can pivot both vertically and horizontally to allow you to perfectly align your monitors. Legit Reviews did run into several small issues, from cables weren't quite long enough to the discovery that while the stand supports 22" displays, they cannot be more than 20" wide. It is still a much cleaner and more stable solution than having your monitors sitting on your desk.
"We were about to give up on an affordable triple monitor stand that had articulating arms for a sweet AMD Eyefinity or NVIDIA Surround gaming setup when we ran across the MonMount LCD-1930 Triple LCD Monitor Stand Desk Mount that costs just $48.88 plus shipping! Compared to the other three monitor stands on the market this one looks like a bargain! Read on to see what we think of this space saving mount!"

HP's inexpensive high resolution 27" display
Subject: Displays | April 5, 2012 - 03:49 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: hp, 27, ZR2740w, ips display, led backlight
It may seem odd to refer to a $680 monitor as a really great deal but that is exactly what the HP ZR2740w is. Finding a new 27" 2560x1440 IPS display with LED backlighting for under $1000 is well nigh impossible, even finding a used one for around $700 is a rare find. HP has done what no other company has though, cutting costs by removing HDMI and speakers as well as not including an OSD. They did not skimp on the quality of the display however, with a very good response rate for an IPS display as well as a very good colour gamut. AnandTech does warn you that the lack of OSD controls, having a colourometer to calibrate the monitor properly is very important.
"We finally have our first real affordable 27", high resolution display on the market now, and it comes courtesy of HP. The HP ZR2740w is a 27" IPS panel with 2560x1440 resolution (16:9 aspect ratio) and an LED backlighting system. With a street price that comes in at $700 or below, what has HP done to be able to bring a high resolution display to the masses at a price well below other vendors? Thankfully, they provided me with a unit so I could evaluate it and see."

ASUS offers an all in one NVIDIA 3D display package
Subject: Displays | March 13, 2012 - 12:58 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: VG278H, tn lcd, asus, 3d display, 27
For those who would like to take advantage of NVIDIA's 3D gaming technology, a good place to start is the ASUS VG278H 27" 3D display. While it is $650 it comes with NVIDIA's 3D Vision 2 glasses and 3D LightBoost thanks to the LED back lighting. In this case a TN monitor makes sense as it gives a quick response rate and the viewing angle matters less as your 3D glasses also have a very limited sweet spot. Hardware Canucks did feel that 27" is a bit large for 1080p resolution but that is part of what keeps the price low compared to other 3D displays and they did notice crosstalk, a problem which plagues many 3D displays. If you feel the need to game in 3D you could do worse than the ASUS VG278H.
"Being one of the first 120Hz capable 27" monitors, the ASUS VG278H caused a stir when it was first announced alongside NVIDIA's 3D Vision 2. Even though it incorporates a TN panel and a resolution of only 1920 x 1080, its price is low enough to be tempting for anyone that wants stereoscopic capabilities without breaking the bank."

A different way to extend your display
Subject: Displays | February 24, 2012 - 02:04 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: sapphire, VID-2X, multi monitor
The Sapphire VID-2X offers you a new way to utilize multiple displays without needing a graphics card capable of powering a resolution of 3840x1200. It can both clone and stretch your desktop and is Plug & Play with no software or drivers to install, simply plug it into a dual link DVI port and it is ready to go. At an MSRP of $180 it is less expensive than an SLI or CrossFire solution though it is limited in performance by your GPU. You might be able to stretch your game across three monitors but you might find performance suffers somewhat. Instead you can consider this a way to get multiple monitors from a single NVIDIA GPU or a way to avoid an active DisplayPort adapter for a Radeon card. HiTech Legion has several videos of the VID-2X in action which you should check out.
"Sapphire's VID-2X is a plug and play compact device that was designed to extend your existing monitor into one large field of view, in effect, tricking the system and allowing you to add two additional monitors to your system from just one display port, be it a laptop, netbook, home computer, or office PC. The VID-2X from Sapphire accomplishes this without you having to install any software or drivers. In addition, the VID-2X will make use of the video card installed and, without using system resources, maintain a resolution or output in clone mode of up to 1920 x 1280. The VID-2X offers several connection options using your existing cable option of DVI, with cables included, and once installed, will double your field of view. The Sapphire VID-2X will also adapt to VGA or HDMI display ports with adapters you may have on hand with your existing system."

Tagged: sapphire, VID-2X
You are probably familiar with the Lenovo ThinkVision, an external monitor easily added to a laptop to give you multiple working screens. Sapphire offers a similar product with a big twist, the VID-2X is a small self contained device which will allow you to connect two 1920x1200 or 1920x1080 monitors via DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, or Dual-link-DVI depending on the model you buy. Instead of being forced to use a small external monitor the VID-2X allows you to choose the monitors you will output to, as well as either cloned or stretched displays which gives you a lot more flexibility. You'll have to visit Overclockers Club to find out how well it works.
"With many in the industry projecting a sharp decline of desktop PC sales over the next few years, an external portable solution for laptop and netbook users on the go may find it a product that will handily fit into their carrying case and very useful for sales presentations, or to just make their tasks easier with increased screen estate. The idea of reduced toggling between multiple open programs and applications is also very appealing as well. As an avid user of a multiscreen desktop setup, I can attest to how much more easy and enjoyable the access is in day to day computing, project management, and content creation software settings.This product would also seem to hit its stride in board rooms and businesses."

You may remember Matt's review of the Lenovo ThinkVision LT1421 portable monitor from back in November, but if not it is time for a refresher from Legit Reviews. It is a 14", 1366x768 display that uses a dual USB 2.0 connection, one for power and one to drive the display, so it gives you a very portable second screen for your laptop. One discovery that Legit Reviews happened upon was Apple support; by grabbing drivers from DisplayLink, the company which designed the ThinkVision, you can use the ThinkVision on your MacBook. Check out their full review here.
"The Lenovo ThinkVision LT1421 portable monitor is a great solution for someone that needs an additional monitor on the go. With an online price of $190.67 shipped it is not something you go out and by on a whim, but is affordable for those that need it. After installing the drivers, using the the ThinkVision LT1421 was as simple as plugging the monitor into a laptop with the two USB 2.0 cables and propping it up with its photo frame stand.

Sony Shelves OLED Tech, Brings Crystal LED TV To Bear Against OLED Competition
Subject: General Tech, Displays | January 9, 2012 - 09:50 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: CES, sony, led, crystal led, oled, tv
While I read a few weeks ago that Sony would not be showing off any OLED TVs at CES, I was a bit saddened. The company was the first to bring a real OLED television one step above vaporware, even if it was only 11" and prohibitively expensive it was advancing the technology. Well, CES is here and Sony did not bring any OLED television to demo, much less bring to market this year. Fortunately, LG and Samsung have the OLED TVs covered. The question of how Sony plans to compete with the OLED competition seems to be in improved LED TV technology.
Speaking of LED TV technology, while Sony did not bring an OLED TV to CES, they did bring a new LED TV that they claim is much improved over current LED back-lit televisions. They are calling this technology "Crystal LED," and it is powering a 55" prototype television at this years CES. The 55" television uses very small RGB (red, green, and blue) LEDs to create the picture. This is an important distinction as current "LED TVs" are really just LCD televisions with LEDs as the back-light; where the LEDs shine light through the LCD pixels to create the picture. This Sony prototype is an actual LED TV, not just a branding misnomer as the LED lights are what creates the picture and not just a light source.
According to Engadget, Sony claims their true LED TV is greatly improved over LED-back-lit LCDs and offers 3.5 times the contrast, a 1.5 times wider color gamut, and is 10 times faster than LCDs. Although these are Sony's numbers and should be taken with a grain of salt (until independent reviewers can verify), they at least seem reasonable and plausible. The contrast improvement and true blacks should be readily possible thanks to the panel tech being self emitting. If done right, it should come close to the contrast offered by OLEDs which share the self-emitting property. The ability to be 10 times faster than LCDs may be the most questionable number, but still not an outrageous claim.
Stay tuned for more information as we get it! Do you think Sony's Crystal LED prototype has a chance against OLED?

AOC Will Show Off USB Powered 22 Inch LED Monitor At CES
Subject: Displays | January 5, 2012 - 10:49 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: monitor, led, display, CES, AOC, 1080p
CES, the Consumer Electronics Show, is not until next week, but the tsunami of information and products that is sure to ensue has already started to rise in the form of leaks and teaser announcements. First off today is an announcement by AOC on a product that they will be showing off at CES. According to Maximum PC, the monitor, dubbed the e2251Fwu, will be pretty impressive by USB monitor standards.
Specifically, the monitor will be a 22 inch, LED back-lit monitor powered and connected to the PC for video via USB. It is HDCP compatible, sports a 1920x1080 resolution, 5ms response time, and 250 cd/m2 (candela per square metre) brightness, The monitor claims a 20,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, though comparing contrast ratios isn't very reliable (but that's another story). Unfortuantely, I wasn't able to dig up much more information from around the web. It will be interesting to see just how much latency the USB connection will add and whether it will be close to the panel's 5ms response time.
Further, the monitor is slated to be available in February for just under 200 bucks. For those of you that have tried out USB connected displays, how well do they work as secondary monitors?

Thin is in for Dell displays; too bad they aren't referring to the bezel
Subject: Displays | January 4, 2012 - 05:14 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: dell, S2330MX, 23, tn led
The Dell S2330MX 23" LED monitor is advertised as a thin display but not in the dimensions most people hope. The screen body its self is a hair under 10mm thick which significantly reduces its footprint on your desk. Unfortunately for you multi-monitor gamers out there the bezel remains the same size and will interfere with your view. On the plus side, Hardware Canucks found it for sale for under $200 which makes it quite a good deal for a thin LED monitor. On the other hand, as you might guess from that low price this is a TN based display and apparently not a particularly good example as they saw evidence of ghosting and frustrating colour quality issues.
"When it comes to consumer electronics, thin is in and Dell is leading the way with their new svelte S2330MX monitor. At just 9.9mm thick it will likely be the center of attention but on paper it also boasts some great specifications as well: an efficient LED panel, full HD resolution, a great price and response times of 2ms. It sure sounds like the 2330MX has what it takes to compete with the competition but there's more to this monitor than what first meets the eye."

Subject: Displays | December 18, 2011 - 11:44 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: eizo, 4k, FDH3601
I have to admit to you all, there isn't much in the world of computer hardware that I really really want at any given time. Sure, there are new graphics cards like the pending AMD Radeon HD 7000 series and new CPUs like Intel's Sandy Bridge-E, but in truth, after more than a decade of seeing hardware releases, I pretty much know what to expect.
Imagine my surprise (and my wife's disappointment) when I found an incredibly gorgeous monitor that I simply must have, but is sadled with a ~$30,000 price tag.
You are looking at the EIZO DuraVision FDH3601 - a monitor with a resolution of 4096 x 2160 with a diagonal length of 36-in. That equates to a pixel density of 128.6 PPI (pixels per inch) compared to your standard 24-in 1080p monitor with a PPI of 91.7.
At a recent event I got to have some hands on time with one of these badass monitors and I have to say I was incredibly impressed with the image quality it provided. It was running Dirt 3 at the native 4096x2160 resolution and the game has never looked as crisp as it did then. While it didn't eliminate it, this kind of resolution would really make a dent in the need for higher quality AA algorithms.
Here you can see Windows 7 running at the same resolution...
To connect this monitor to any modern graphics hardware on your PC it requires a pair of dual-link DVI connections or a pair of DisplayPort connections in order to have enough bandwidth for peak refresh rates. The monitor is definitely not a thin device but for being one of the first 4K displays available to consumers, we'll gladly accept the depth.
If you want drool over these specs as well, you can head over to the EIZO website. Alternatively, if you would like to purchase one as a holiday gift for me, just send me an email and I'll give you my address!!
Apple May Bring High Pixel Density Displays To MacBook Pro Notebooks
Subject: Displays, Mobile | December 14, 2011 - 04:40 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: mobile, macbook, apple
Apple pulled off a four times increase in pixel density on it's smartphone displays with the iPhone 4 which they dubbed the "Retina Display." Meanwhile the company's current 13" MacBook Pro is shackled to a 1280x800 display with an approximate pixel density of 116 pixels per inch. The low resolution (especially vertically) can make reading web pages or working with large documents a hassle as it involves quite a bit of scrolling up and down. New rumors; however, suggest that the Cupertino based company may be looking to step up the display resolution in the next iteration of the MacBook lineup. Allegedly, Digitimes has heard from "sources in the upstream supply chain" that the displays will have as high as a 2880x1800 resolution (and an approximate 261.25 PPI). Pretty impressive for a 13" display!
The current MBP
Whether we will actually see new MacBook models release with such a display remains to be seen; however, it would certainly be a welcomed move as the computer display innovation market has been rather stagnant for the past few years, even going so far as to go backwards in ~24" monitors from 1200 vertical pixels to the now standard 1920x1080 resolution. Perhaps this move by Apple will entice other monitor manufacturers to step up their game and bring 4K gaming to the PC, eventually. Heck, while we are on the topic of monitor tech traveling laterally instead of forward, what ever happened to that curved display from Alienware? Personally, I'm rooting for Apple on this one as the monitor market could use a wake up call!
HD Projectors are fun, 3D HD projectors more so

Tagged: 3d display, projector, 1080p, optima, optima hd33
In the interests of dispensing with the bad news first, buying an Optima HD33 3D projector will set you back $1500 and does not come with glasses. On the other hand, thanks to the Texas Instruments 1080p DLP chipset you get full HD resolution image of up to 300" (aka 25') at 1800 ANSI Lumens. It is active 3D so the projector ships with an RF emitter for the necessary 3D glasses, which are battery powered. Techware Labs found that the batteries would last about 2 hours before they started to show problems, at that point requiring a 30 minute recharge time over a USB cable. It supports all HDMI 1.4a mandatory 3D formats, so you have your choice of 3D glasses to purchase which is good as the projector does not ship with 3D glasses in the box. Optoma sells the BG-ZD101 DLP Link 3D Glasses separately for about $75 each.
Didn't I see this in a recent game sequel?
"Optoma's HD33 projector which is a full 3D 1080P projector gets reviewed by TechwareLabs. Through a full 90 day review we were very impressed with the Optoma HD33 projector and were very reluctant to ship it back. The Optoma is a very well designed, very bright and sharp projection. The very simple option and use made the setup and usage ever so simple. All you need is a wall big enough to project on and 3D content."

This post over at The Tech Report starts by describing a situation that anyone reading this familar with, how staring at a PC for 8+ hours a day takes a toll on your eyes. So, is it possible that the Gunnar Optiks Computer Glasses could save you some eye ache? It certainly sounds like it from the positive comments these glasses garnered in the review, by a reviewer that is not used to wearing any glasses at all. They are intended for the long haul, as your eyes will need a bit of time to adjust to the glasses, so you won't notice anything during a quick 5 minute email session you might find your eyes much happier after the 5th hour of gaming. As well, The Tech Report warns against using these glasses with Photoshop as the yellow tint to the glasses will have an effect on the colours you perceive. Shame about the logo as well.
"Does staring at a computer screen for hours on end strain your eyes and give you headaches? Gunnar's computer glasses might help. TR's David Morgan tries on a pair in his latest blog post, with surprising results."

Reviews Summary |
This is definitely for fans of older Lusine but with a bit more noise, damage and darkness. - ISO50 / Say Goodbye To Useless is a pretty smart record all round. - The Milk Factory / Benjamin Winn's third album, his debut for San Fran's weird hoppers Mush, makes for spooky listen.- Clash / A fabulous effort and the first great album of 2010. - The Intricate Mess |

This is an awesome album. Yes, I can safely say that all Merck fans should really dig this one. Don't let the weird french singing in the first track throw you off, its about to get riggedy ruff. It progresses really nicely through lush beaty material overlaid perfectly with soundscapes, delicious deru percussion, and the melodies that gets in many-a-merck fans heads. This is the kind of stuff that I hoped to release in my Merck days. Heavy on the beats and bass, stuff I can't stop nodding my head to. He combines the best of Autechre and Dj Premier, in a subtle, seamless, and original way. There aren't any standout tracks for me to point to initially, because the whole thing is strong, its screaming for a straight through listen, no angst to ffwd a track, or repeatedly backtrack, it flows excellently. Its got a good strong start with a few block-knocker tracks then it slows down a little into Walk and Fadeaway, which remind me of Carter Burwell stuff (his soundtrack to In Bruges). I'm guessing maybe he was listening to some of his stuff around the time of making this, just like you can hear in a few of Proem's tracks when he had started to listen really heavily to Thomas Newman stuff (his Tiki Obmar remix in particular). Nonetheless, it continues on to finish off with 2 ambient pieces, and sandwiched in between them is Cottonmouth Lothario, with its excellent midway breakdown. Ok, I'll stop hyping, if you didn't catch this one already, please do, cheers to Ben & Mush, this kind of music belongs on the label that Aesop Rock started off on. Futuristic hip-hop indeed. - Merck Fragments |

text: LRA slams Kony video as act of deceptionBy Moni Basu, CNNUpdated 1:34 PM ET, Fri April 6, 2012Militant leader Joseph Kony, shown in a 2006 photo, is the subject of the viral video "Kony 2012"Story highlightsThe LRA issues an 18-page statement obtained for CNN by a respected journalistIt calls Invisible Children, which produced the video, a front organization for WashingtonThe video went viral and made Joseph Kony a household nameA sequel released Thursday addresses some of the criticisms of "Kony 2012"The Lord's Resistance Army slammed "Kony 2012" as a "clear act of malevolent deception and manipulation of world mass consciousness" in an 18-page statement believed to be its first response to the viral video spotlighting the renegade group and its leader, warlord Joseph Kony."Behind 'Kony 2012' lurks the U.S.A., which is not a 'banana republic' state, but a world hegemonic power that runs a vast global network of war, intelligence and security institutions, and a myriad of their humanitarian front and service organizations," said the statement signed by Justine Labeja, a spokesman for Kony's organization known commonly by its acronym, LRA.Invisible Children, the San Diego-based activist group that launched the "Kony 2012" campaign, is one of those front organizations, the LRA charged.CNN obtained the statement, issued Wednesday, through journalist Frank Nyakairu, who passed it on along with the e-mail he received it in. He said it was sent to him from LRA representatives in Nairobi, Kenya, who have been quoted in international news media. Nyakairu is respected internationally for his coverage of the LRA."Kony 2012" has drawn criticism from many corners but this was the first reaction from LRA.The video laid out the LRA's alleged atrocities over more than two decades -- killing and maiming villagers, recruiting boys to become soldiers and forcing girls into sexual slavery.Thursday, Invisible Children released a sequel to the original half-hour video, which was viewed by millions of people and turned Kony into a household name.The first video became highly controversial, sparking a flurry of questions about Invisible Children's intentions, its transparency and whether the social-media frenzy was too little, too late. It also drew criticism for not highlighting alleged Ugandan military atrocities, for not saying that Kony is no longer in Uganda and is operating with a much smaller army, and for casting a spotlight that might make it harder to capture him.The sequel, "Beyond Famous" addresses criticism of "Kony 2012" and explains what politicians in Washington and in Africa have done in the past month."We made the first video intentionally for a young Western audience, and therefore it was a priority that the video keep their attention," said Ben Keesey, the executive director of Invisible Children. "This (new) video goes deeper. I think people will respond."Kony is wanted by the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity. The African Union said last month that it plans to deploy 5,000 troops to hunt him down in a mission assisted by 100 U.S. combat troops the Pentagon sent to the region in October.Kony formed the LRA with the intent of overthrowing the Ugandan government. Since 2006, the LRA has migrated to remote hinterlands on the borders of the Central African Republic, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo.It has been on the run since being scattered from a temporary base in Congolese territory by a botched 2008 U.S.-backed attack on Kony's position dubbed Operation Lightning Thunder.Since then, LRA attacks have killed 2,400 people and displaced 465,000, according to Resolve Uganda, a nonprofit group that monitors LRA activity. Another 3,400 people have been abducted. The LRA statement said Invisible Children has been used to cover up the "vile acts of the U.S.-supported military regime of Uganda in its dirty war activities."It accused Invisible Children co-founder Jason Russell, who directed video, of sanitizing the acts of the Ugandan military."In effect, 'Kony 2012,' whose falsehoods have now boomeranged on one of its authors and purveyors, a Mr. Jason Russell, constitute(s) the biggest ruse and the most sordid 'open air' 'sleight of the hand' act that has ever been used to deceive the gullible and the uninformed in the world," the LRA statement said. "Millions have consequently had their intellect and minds 'pocket picked' and subjected to the most banal trickery, deception and manipulation," it said.More from africaThe secret artists colony that wants to change the world with chocolate headsOldest known jawbone from human genus found in EthiopiaPotentially historic Ebola vaccine campaign to be launched in GuineaPowered by Livefyre

Hey y'all, I'm calling on the collective brain-trust to assist me. My question is after installing the new gears should I try to re-flash the ECU? My speedometer and tachometer read 2200 rpm @ 60 mph and the shift points during hard acceleration rev up to about 5500 rpm. So, is this normal after re-gearing or should I continue to pursue other options?

Chakana Alpaca Sweater
(Got it? Rate it.)
Category: Clothing/Men's Clothing/Sweaters
The Spanish vanquished the last Inca strongholds in the 16th century, but from the soaring heights of Machu Picchu, it is easy to imagine that the Inca empire still extends as far as the eye can see. The Inca understood their world as three interconnected parts: hanaq pacha, the world above, ukhu pacha, the realm below, and kay pacha, the world of the here and now. This complex cosmology found simple expression in the image of the chakanathe Inca crossa graceful symbol that represented the entire Inca universe. Inspired by graceful lines of Machu Picchu and the chakana, this beautiful pastel sweater is knit on communal looms using 100% pure superfine alpaca yarn from the Peruvian city of Arequipa.
Available sizes: Medium, Large, XLarge
Flora Roja Alpaca Cardigan
(Got it? Rate it.)
Category: Clothing/Women's Clothing/Sweaters

Who can be romantically linked to Lauryn Hill...and how closely?
The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill (1905)
The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is the debut solo album by American musician Lauryn Hill, released August 25, 1998, on Columbia Records. Recording sessions for the album took place from late 1997 to June 1998, and were held primarily at Tuff Gong Studios in Jamaica. The album's lyrics deal with Hill's pregnancy at the time, the turmoil in her former group the Fugees, and also love and God, while it incorporates musical elements of R&B, hip hop, soul, reggae, and gospel. The album's title was inspired by the film and autobiographical novel The Education of Sonny Carson, and Carter G. Woodson's The Mis-Education of the Negro.
This life is a process of learning.
I believe God will make a way.

Editors' Review
+As its name suggests, this easy-to-use, well-organized database program is specifically created for pilots. Forpilots Logbook's tabbed interface lets you quickly add information such as types of flights, data and time, duration of flight, aircraft used, route, and destination.
A number of wizards aid you in entering flight-related information, which really helps minimize the learning curve. Once you get a good amount of data into the program, this software really shines. Countless graphs and reports can be produced to analyze nearly any data set, from takeoffs and landings to average air times.
The only negative we could find is the countdown screen that appears whenever the program is opened, and that will go away with registration. Overall, if you're a pilot who's down with data entry, this database program is effortless to learn and provides massive insight into technical elements of your flights.
Publisher's Description
+ForPilots Logbook maintains an electronic version of a pilots logbook. The program is extremely user friendly and is intended to look and feel just like the paper logbooks do. Many different fields supported. It is intended for everyone from student pilots to commercial ATP pilots. It has enhanced statistics and graph options to show your progress.

After years of hard work, saving up and an Air Force pension, Terry and Edward Fackler of Everett, Wash., thought they had retirement covered.
Then the student-loan debt started piling up. It wasn't theirs, though, belonging instead to two of their three children.
Now, with their savings down to $20,000 from $80,000 — and a student-loan debt of $116,000 that they're still responsible for — the couple say they're not so sure that they'll be retiring any time soon.
"Well, I'm still working," church minister Edward Fackler, 73, said.
The Facklers are part of an often-hidden yet sizable number of retirement-age Americans drowning in an estimated $36 billion in student-loan debt for themselves and their children.
"The whole concept that student loan debt is a 20- or 30-something problem is just misplaced," said William Brewer, president of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys.
The Facklers co-signed for loans to put their kids through college and now their children can't afford the debt payments.
Despite having three college diplomas – a bachelor's and two master's – son Mark Fackler, a veteran, is barely able to pay the $600 monthly, interest only, payments on his loans. He now owes close to a quarter-million dollars.
"I am 40," he said. "They are 73-plus and my mom is a little younger. I don't want to be burden on them. I think about it all the time."
Their mother, 65, is a retired preschool teacher.
Her Social Security checks, in addition to the couple's life savings, now go straight to their daughter's nursing school. They said they were trying to spare Susan, 37, from the kind of loans burdening son Mark, who lives in Texas.
Another son, Brian, 35, is serving in Afghanistan and has no loans.
Financial planners advise parents to co-sign only for loans if they are prepared to pay the debt themselves.
They also say that if a person is considering returning to school for a second career, financial consequences should be considered because student-loan debt cannot be discharged in bankruptcy court.
"It's like a ball and chain that you perhaps drag to your grave," bankruptcy attorney Brewer said.

Former Socorro Councilman Pleads Guilty
POSTED: Monday, April 4, 2011 - 5:04pm
UPDATED: Monday, July 25, 2011 - 8:14am
SOCORRO - Luis Varela, indicted on drug charges, has plead guilty. He was arrested in November for trying to sell more than 40 pounds of marijuana to undercover sheriff's deputies and for having 28 grams of cocaine. But he won't be going to jail.
Court documents show Varela could've faced life in prison for delivery of marijuana and possession of cocaine. Instead, it's costing him 10 years of probation time and 500 hours of community service.
He won't be allowed to buy alcohol in Texas, he has to check in to a probation officer once a month, and he has a curfew of 10 p.m. He also has to pay about $1,800 in court fees and fines for both offenses. He can't own a gun and he has to take drug education classes.
We asked the district attorney's office to elaborate on the plea deal but they only said, "The facts and circumstances of the case and his eligibility for probation were all considerations in the state's plea agreement."
The city of Socorro says while it doesn't comment on the private matters of its leaders, "Socorro does generally support all of our district courts and any decision handed down. We also hope those decisions help make our community a better place to live."
We tried reaching Varela and his attorney, but neither returned our calls. We also called the Sheriff's office for comment but have yet to hear back.
Comments News Comments
This is outrageous JUDGE!This is why people leave this city because it continues to do favors for the crooked and punish the less fortunate when it comes to breaking the law. It's senseless to have investigations on our supposedly city officials and only punish some of them.No justice!El Pasoans aren't naive. Despite what you may think, there are many educated individuals here-but obviously you prefer to keep ignorance on your side-JOB SECURITY. Way to go!High tourism on it's way-yeah right.C-ya
Keep a watch on your behaviour; let all your ways be rightly ordered.
Let there be no turning to the right or to the left, keep your feet from evil.
Proverbs 4:26
Go to the ant, you hater of work; give thought to her ways and be wise:
Proverbs 6:6
It is totally hypocritical to allow this official to be allowed to not do any jail-time,when the city and the county is cracking down and arresting any individual driving drunk. Although I do not drink licquor, this attitude only shows to me that it is who you know, that gets these individuals a free pass, and a slap on the wrist. This along with the fact that we have numerous city and county individuals in federal prison, makes El Paso the 2nd safest city, yes, now we can add the most corrupt.
I told you so, this is just the beginning of these CHARACTERS more or les getting off practically scott free, sending the message, in El Paso, if you have the money, the judges will let you go, expect more of the same coming soon, wait for tomorrow's news!!!!
What a flippin' joke!! He deserves to serve time!! Anyone else that would have been busted with that much pot/coke would have been behind bars! I also think him being on the city council in Socorro he should be held to a higher standard and they should have made a example out of this clown!!
Are you serious? WOW talk about getting away with murder! 40 pounds! 28 Grams of Cocaine! Probation? Plea deal? Sounds like a bunch of bs going on here in El Paso! People go to jail for much less illegal drugs! What is going on in this city of corruption?
OMG... only ten years probation,come on. If it was our average Joe he would have been locked up for more than ten years.

FOLKLORE is a comedy feature that showcases the interviews of many mythic beings of folklore.
About this project
WE, AT QUARTZ AGENCY, NEED YOU! Help us raise funds so we will be able to interview all the beings of folklore you've come to know and love!
SYNOPSIS: FOLKLORE is a feature film about an android, a water nymph, a vampire, a couple aliens, a time traveler and many other mythic beings that are interviewed and asked to update a fictional government agency on their lives.
Let the interviews begin. Let the comedy ensue. (Running time: Approx. 80 minutes)
NOTE: You won't be charged anything unless the full amount of $11,700 is raised. If we don't get to our limit, then everything will be returned to you. But let's not think negatively. Let's be optimistic that we can get there and go beyond! Thank you for your support and interests in FOLKLORE.
And yes! If we do reach our limit early, you can keep pledging! The more of your support, the better and better FOLKLORE will become!
Hello! As we all know, making any film is hard. But it is especially hard when you're trying to do it at the low or micro budget level. At that level, it's all about creativity and maximizing the resources you have. Luckily now, there are websites like Kickstarter that allow people to fund their creative dreams when they otherwise couldn't.
For me personally, the road to film has been eventful. I was a train wreck of a man until my mid 20's. I used to have a passion for art as a child, but gave it up when life threw a lot of curveballs that I was never able to deal with in the proper way. As a result of that, the only things I had a passion for during my youth years were self destruction and hazardous activities. I've got the physical scars to prove that, and it's not pretty! But that all changed when film came along in 2007 so, if you can, donate to this film and help a guy continue to realize his dreams
Your pledge is not displayed publicly, and you can change the amount of your donation at any time. Donations are accepted from all over the world, and pledges can still be made even if we reach our goal. Every little bit helps and is so very appreciated. Thank you for your support and interests in FOLKLORE and in me. With this film, I promise to try my best to make sure comedy will ensue and endure!

POSTED: Thursday, May 8, 2014 - 3:51pm
UPDATED: Wednesday, May 14, 2014 - 5:00pm
Belle Chasse (NBC33) — The Plaquemines Parish Sheriff's Office reported on Thursday, May 8, that they are investigating racist images found on the Mississippi River in the 14300 block of Highway 23 in Belle Chasse.
According to police, they received a report on Monday, April 28, about a noose hanging from a willow tree on the river.
Police also found two K's spray painted on the tree. Nearby on the cement levee, someone had also spray painted the words "white power."
PPSO called in the FBI New Orleans Civil Rights Squad to assist with the investigation. The investigation is ongoing.
Sheriff Lonnie Greco said, "This type of offensive behavior is disheartening, unacceptable, and has no place in society. The individual(s) found to be responsible will be held accountable."
Anyone with information on this incident should contact the PPSO Criminal Investigations Bureau at 504-392-1652 or the FBI New Orleans Field Office at 504-816-3000.

I honestly wonder why don't they just remove chat from this game and make more pings.
Talk trash to teammates = GG byebye and you deserve it. If you want to rage/flame your team because you get frustrated go back to HoN. We do not want your type here. you can playfully rib anyone, but the second you put any anger into it we will point you to the door.
Spending money doesn't mean you get any special treatment first of all. Your first point about other summoners being able to choose your fate, it's not like they are random choices of punish/pardon, we have evidence in front of us of whether we would want you in a game. And your point about choosing battles is honestly absolute ****. Hey everyone let's stop having doctors and taking medication because it's not like we will win the fight against disease, everyone is going to die anyways. I don't know about the people you know, because when I play I can very easily get along with other players, it's very simple just don't rage at them. Sure, you can't stop yourself from feeling angry but you can stop yourself from expressing it in a way where you are attacking another player.
people on tribunal punish people unjustly
Silent Haven85
It just means so many dumbs in NA server and even the society. No one will get mad except they tried hard but lost just because some dumb ruined the game. They pointed to the fact that these people are so bad and they get banned. And i see the reply-rate here and i actually think these who voted "bad" are just spending all their times here cuz they are not capable to have a nice game and they are exactly what we called noob. But i should say luckily or unfortunately they found a perfect protection called Riot which overlooks more and more unjustly actions and banned the summoners who actually did nothing wrong but 100% devoted to the game unlike some pathetic junk.
It's Riot's game, they set the rules, they made them clear and YOU have to accept them before playing the game. You choose to do this and now complain about it?, does that seem rational? If you don't like those rules then maybe there are other games more suitable for you.

Continuing down the highway about 1.5 miles, opposite some abandoned white buildings on the left, (if you're traveling with a GPS, it's N32o34'523" and W115o44'676"), we turned south into a wide ramp leading across the dry lake, stopping briefly to air our tires down. Several tracks crisscrossed the mud flats, but most of them go to the same place. Taking the smoothest and most worn set of tracks, we proceeded at a steady 60 mph. There were occasional signs for Canon de Guadalupe, so we knew we weren't lost.After about 20 miles, the dusty track wound through desert scrub brush for a short distance to intersect the aforementioned washboard. Again following the signs, we jogged south and then west for about seven miles on sandy corduroy, passing a fledgling olive grove and eventually winding into a canyon. At this point, there was only one road, which grew progressively narrower and rougher as it twisted through cacti and scattered mesquite trees. Paying attention to the road here is most important. Menacing rocks reached for our differentials, and skidmarks left the trail made by those who weren't paying attention. Our Dodge Dakota with its Four Wheel pop-up camper was the ideal combination, but any van, truck, or SUV with good ground clearance can make the trip. As long as the weather stays clear, four-wheel drive isn't needed.
Arriving at Canon de Guadalupe proper, we came to an information sign where we parked and walked in. We could have driven, but it was early, and we wanted to check things out. We learned that there are actually two campos, or campgrounds. Campo I is in some ways the nicest--and the most expensive. During the week, it's easier to find available sites, but reservations are a good idea for weekends (www.guadalupe-canyon.com). Several sites overlook the canyon and can accommodate two, three, or even four vehicles.
Campo III, (also called Arturo's Camp), is reached by driving through Campo I or by taking the sandy road up the arroyo to the left of the information sign. It had some beautiful sites and was generally much less expensive. There's no way to make reservations at Arturo's Camp, so you can bargain if it's not busy. Depending on the campo, the site, the day, the season, the demand, and the number of vehicles in your party, daily rates run from $15 to over $100. Weekends are popular.

year = {1996}
For almost a decade we have been working at developing and using template-based models for coarse-grained parallel computing. Our initial system, FrameWorks, was positively received but had a number of shortcomings. The Enterprise parallel programming environment evolved out of this work, and now, after several years of experience with the system, its shortcomings are becoming evident. This paper outlines our experiences in developing and using the two parallel programming systems. Many of our observations are relevant to other parallel programming systems, even though they may be based on different assumptions. Although template-base models have the potential for simplifying the complexities of parallel programming, they have yet to realize these expectations for high-performance applications. 1 Introduction Along with the growing interest in parallel and distributed computing, there has been a corresponding increase in the development of models, tools and systems for parallel progra...
