Deal Of The Day: $215 Off Dell XPS 8500

dell-xps-8500The Dell XPS line of computers is more performance oriented than others, so it stands to reason that the 8500 pictured above comes standard with a decent amount of hardware, like: Core i7-3770 3.4GHz Quad-core CPU, 8GB RAM, 1TB SATA III HDD, DVD Burner optical drive, Wireless-N, Bluetooth 4.0, 1GB Radeon HD 7570 graphics. It’s also customizable, like most things Dell, but if you leave it as described, you’ll be able to take it home for all of $659, after a $215 rebate. That’s $90 lower than the last time the XPS 8500 was on special.

Sometimes You Just Need To Print A Good Sign

business-yard-signs-splash

The following article is sponsored by Signazon.

When it comes to printing stuff, most of us are happy enough to let ourselves be gouged by the desktop printer ink racket. These printers do a decent enough job most of the time, but they don’t cut the mustard if you need a professional looking sign. You then have a choice: go to the local print shop, or get online signs. Signazon is a company based in Dallas, TX and Boston, MA but who delivers nationwide. Unlike a lot of other similar outfits, they offer custom size signs, as opposed to letting you choose from a bunch of presets. That’s cool if you’re looking to accommodate a specific need, and can save you a lot of headaches down the line. They have a full interface online with which you can design your signs, and they specialize in 1440 DPI, full-color digital printing.

About NAS

The following article brought to you by Misco Computers. -Ed.

Back in the olden days if you wanted to share something with a friend you would have to actually speak to them or even physically deliver the item in question. Nowadays, of course, sharing funny pictures and hilarious videos is as easy as clicking a button on Facebook or sending an email.

When it comes to sharing larger files, however, things are a little more difficult, especially with the growth in popularity of netbooks that lack CD/DVD drives. While online filesharing is now growing more difficult there is a handy, legal option for sharing between those who live together.

Network attached storage, or NAS, allows all members of a house to connect to a single specialised device that stores files like music, movies, documents and more.Continue Reading

What Phone Tariff Offers The Most For Customers?

This article is sponsored. -Ed.

Let’s face it-having a mobile phone has now become an extension of the human arm, but how do you know you’re getting the most for your money in today’s saturated market? Be it a smartphone, blackberry or (for those of you still stuck in the 20th century) a run of the mill mobile with minimum redeeming (or modern) features – they all offer various tariffs, but what is right for you?

Top of the list is choosing the right handset, so look at what you use your phone for. If you’re a serial texter, but haven’t yet discovered the wonderful world of ‘apps’, videos and social media then Samsung is the man for you – in particular the E2121b or the E1150i Cobble. These are both at the lower cost end of the spectrum at £21.50 for a 24 month contract. You can find these examples at www.dialaphone.co.uk/.

Devices and the Modern Home

Brought to you by Virgin Media. -Ed.

Today’s technology is all about being small, discrete and compact. This allows for many practical devices, especially when you’re out.

Whilst many of these devices are great when you’re out and about in public, you also need to consider their uses when at home. After all, even the busiest of people spend a lot of time at home; it seems only right that your gadgets have an important role here.

Connectivity

First of all, let’s not forget that gadgets like the smart phone and tablet thrive on an internet connection. Even some of the most modern cameras are finding uses for an internet connection.

In short, you want a decent internet connection, making use of any broadband deals available. Additionally, a wireless router will allow all your devices to connect, ensuring you can use them efficiently wherever you are.

Robots Are Roaming Around San Francisco

The following article is sponsored. -Ed.

Robots are roaming around the city of San Francisco and Los Angeles and perhaps other cities yet not captured. Here is one of several spotted learning how to use the Bart system. Others have been seen crossing the street, hailing for cabs on Hollywood Blvd, getting off subways, and out in the middle of a deserted highway. Among the Brilliant Machines is KITT Knight Rider. See more of the machines at: http://brilliantmach.tumblr.com/.

Aren’t You a Little Cotton for a Stormtrooper?

This is a sponsored article. -Ed.

We’ve seen the Sith Lord bathrobes. We’ve even seen the Jedi Master bathrobes. We’ve even used both in conjunction with those replica lightsabers and acted out the scene from A New Hope on the landing, quipping one liners like ‘You can’t win Darth’ at each other whilst obliterating any tall standing lamps in the vicinity. We’ve even superimposed a see-through Hayden Christenson off in the distance as we frolic with the Ewoks. In fact, if you can think of an event in which a Jedi or Sith robe could be used to cause trouble, we’ve pretty much done it. And then got a bit bored. Fortunately though, we’ve found something new.

What with the recent news that Mickey Mouse pulled up in his stretch Cadillac and nonchalantly purchased Lucasfilm from beneath the largely bewildered nose of old George, the 7th episode announced for fast-track release in 2015, and the release of Angry Birds: Star Wars, we’ve all gone a bit intergalactically nuts again of late.

As such, who wouldn’t want to reinvigorate the bathrobe battles by donning the outfit of everybody’s favourite group of cock-eyed, arthritic, can’t-aim-for-toffee, clone-soldiers-for-hire: The Stormtroopers!

Yep, that’s right. This little gem, located roughly in the locale of the Find Me a Gift website is just like our Jedi and Sith bathrobes, except with this we lose any previous ability to aim a gun and not look exactly like Jango Fett. We’ve also recently been hit with the realization that those were, in fact, the droids we were looking for. Damn it all.

As a Christmas present, any Star Wars fan will undoubtedly lose their marbles over this ineffable garment, and whether you’re new to the unending fun of larking around the house like a nine year old, breaking expensive things and pretending to be a Jedi, or are a seasoned veteran of the sport, and simply need to add a new guise to your collection, the Stormtrooper robe undoubtedly provides.

You can find this and many more great gifts for men at Find Me a Gift.

Deal Of The Day: $30 Off On Dell S2440L

Monitors are reaching the floor in terms of prices. Where the drops used to be huge, they are now marginal, but even a little bit is better than no bit. So with that in mind, let’s take a look at the Dell S2440L. It’s a 24 inch LED-backlit LCD featuring an almost frameless, edge-to-edge 1080p screen. With a 6ms response time, 250 nit brightness, and a 5000:1 typical contrast ratio, it’s a decent monitor, but all the more so in that it costs $269 after today’s rebate.

Deal Of The Day: $125 Off On Sony VAIO S

It used to be that the Sony VAIO line of laptops was considered worthy of lust. That was before Ultrabooks, and it was before other manufacturers started catching up in terms of design and performance. Now it’s just a nice laptop, but not one deserving of premium prices. Good thing too, then, that it’s seeing a $125 price drop to end at $725. For that amount, you get a Core i5-3210M 2.5GHz Dual-core processor, 4GB of RAM and a 500GB Hard Drive.
