I read yesterday a story on ITV News saying that PS3s had been banned from UK prisons. I was expecting to see that the reason was because the UK was finally getting tough on crime, but according to Home Secretary John Reid the ban was put in place because:

However, IGN have actually worked it out [...]

IOGear have launched an automatic HDMI switch for £170 in the US. Mikael thinks this is expensive, but I don’t think it’s too bad given that a standard switch costs twice that in the UK. This could be the answer to my current problem where I only have one HDMI input on [...]

It’s Computer Shutdown Day Today…So I Bought A Playstation 3!
Well, not quite! I pre-ordered a Playstation 3 a few months ago on a whim to be honest, so that I wouldn’t miss out if I I decided I wanted one later. I was totally undecided as to whether or not to keep it right up until it arrived, and the temptation to [...]

What Are My Options For A HD Media Center?
My regular readers know that I love my modded Xboxs running XBMC. However, the problem I’m facing currently is that my poor old Xboxs don’t have enough power to handle HD content.
