  • Sleek Ipad Mini Mount in a VW CC

    Slick!

  • Five Best Drive Enclosures

    Five Best Drive Enclosures. I vote for the Thermaltake BlacX Docking Station.  I have the Rosewill branded version and its the simplest way to use bare drives with minimal fuss.

  • circuits.io

    circuits.io. Interesting.  Its kinda like a github for hardware.  Also has some kind of back end for actually producing circuit boards.  Nice!

  • Like an iMac, but Ubuntu.

    Meet The $799 All-in-One Ubuntu PC from System76 | OMG! Ubuntu! Pretty nice, but I don’t see them moving a lot of them at that price point.

  • Apple Sends Press Invites for iPad Mini Event

Part cellphone, part iPod, part Mac. The Macworld Keynote reveal of the phone was…

  • Handy New Firefox Plugin

    Meet PermaTabs, a little hack that allows you to have tabs that can’t be closed.  After installing it, just right click on the tab and turn on the Permanent Tab option.  It also persists across sessions, so next time you fire up Firefox, it brings back your permanent tabs automagically.  Sweet, now I won’t keep…
