We got an answer for that she will next to. Well that's where the but it it wrapped hot dogs are they are actually fantastic it yeah this -- we -- if we know the answers we'll find somebody who does like this bag Garnett Lee. You mr. video game editor are going to be the 83. Absolutely Amazon. With the latest and greatest game -- I am actually looking forward to this is gonna be a great. It's gonna be -- I actually have -- of actually walking Michael -- talk about you but me at a local restaurant which is not this theory bacon wrapped hot dog thing but forget the -- of these -- Yeah yeah. When you thought -- is right pathetic that the chorus having tasted it yet there is some scary good deal commits that are. But so that it was like literally -- look we're going to be a stripper poles but this year it's like. These three. It cat out of control it got really nobody got yanked back and and then it got too expensive again and then they turned it into this and a little thing last year that everybody -- well -- it once and it right but both sides that you you have to have that glitz and glamour in order to convince the big guns to bring up the big stuff right if you do reveals. They want to catalysts that he could expect flight. You know Ferrari to show off a car without the right girl in front of it at the auto show it's the same thing with. Right right it's like. They have that same thing that same energy that would get people talking about it they want to have the glitz and glamour the show was gonna happen not only great software and you're gonna see modern warfare to which I think they're on the site about -- call of duty extension. There's a lot of rumors that are gonna come true that I even in the going to be true. First up -- you Sony's stuff is gonna be amazing you know those shots of that slim PS3. I'm -- here that they might actually be real so next week. You might actually be seeing a brand -- PS3 what's the point of coming out with us you know it's -- over to disable artwork that just losing money and over and -- Patrick -- mean if you read tilt -- it's been three years right so it in the amount of time if you think about what they could -- tech wise. I feel like they probably can save enough money that it's worth retooling the coming in with a new product in the energize the marketing push so die shrink on the CPU absolutely -- power absolutely. All of these things all of those things manufacturing efficiencies. -- that maybe some consolidation of the chip sets that are within the product all of those things and they've repackaged it. New price great software and suddenly they have a revitalized brands are what it would -- most of the CPS three. Anyway what's what do you really looking forward to you can actually talk about this point. You know it's a really really tough question -- have to go with probably the overall PS3 software Linus he's using gaming -- because this seems like heavy rain I mean this is a game I'm looking forward to long time but it's a follow up to a game called indigo prophecy here Fahrenheit over in Europe this long and short of it is it's a game that really gets cinematic gaming. Right it does a record of mercenaries who read it. No this actually has like either fact or fiction that you actually get to get involved and it has a mystery that's going on you doing investigation it does you know those of Apple's quicktime events and people loved to hate. In in an indigo -- hate them because you had a real sense of interactivity instead of just pressing a button you're making motions and it was coordinate with the action in the game and we're seeing the same thing in the first part of heavy rain here. You've got these great cinematic action sequences. What one's gonna see is a joke arts scene. And and your protagonist is escaping to the jump started what is escaping. He's making you're making motions in the control whether that really hoping you into the action. The looks gorgeous great story like I. Super high yeah they were I'd. No I think it's me fantastic and a lot of other cool stuff I mean. What there's -- new PSP hardware that's coming with a bugle allegedly downloadable printing system -- for PS2 games. No physical media like that 3-D motion sensing technology for Xbox-360. My -- reports filed navigation at the front end what's the what's the website a lot of that comes to us that's gonna be able to have a special sockets. UGU we have these three dot net which also set -- the -- rural spots that whichever what you would go to. We're happy with the either one. What more safety gamers check out recent news coverage what basically actually -- graduate you're gonna be this. On.

" Yeah politics going on call. I am looking for a good gaming most of under fifty bucks but he's not that Logitech MX just like eighteen. I believe you guys connected to me on this. I think utilities."

" Our friends our first call. That accident is fascinating we're just believe that -- also for TV mice right. Around fifty bucks or less sure it's coming from because you don't want to spend a lot of money on a gaming mouse and you can get really carried away for the throw a couple of suggestions out there -- when I was little look up. Logitech G five is now under fifty bucks and this for like three years was my number one miles -- a great feel to them also by that I mean that's a nice weight and substance to it when it's in your hand feels really good. I like the clicking buttons house you'd be really good feedback. And if you're in the late Leo cool cool show off stuff to your friends think it has -- little pack of weights that you can drop him differently exceed a cubicles subtly like that. What does the point of the adjustable weeks of my house so that. During that era of -- you know a fatality in those guys -- popular there was this theory that they have to under the weight of the mouse. But the weight of the mouse when -- moving it around would it would somehow relate to how quickly could do the flip. -- flip was of course. -- the -- PPI you just take the back of the mouse and scooted to the hair and would be a perfect 180 degrees so if you watch these guys play they were able to -- flick the mouse and get a perfect 180 every time. And they wanted it balanced just so. So the accommodation about was adjustable -- sets so that depending on how -- was that you get that -- to -- exactly what they want it. I mean that you look at this right and I I forgot to bring the special ways that for this one that's like three slots and right droplets that pucker away there's you know what site. I won't disdain anybody wants to use it but unless you're really pro player -- that was different although it might make it more comfortable to you and I mean if you're playing for a long time -- I don't. The other end of the spectrum Francois is the -- death matter. And I've not actually been a big fan of -- newer products because from either -- really likely did they go for that speed demon super lightweight feel. The the buttons on them to -- buttons when he's the most really lightweight I mean I find that -- them by accident lightly like. Blake who easy to it like we'd like should see. -- no -- no accident a really good rubber rice field on them what happens is when your put your fingers on them I find that resting. I oftentimes will be clicking by accident you know because it's so quick and I think that they're for people who float and -- a lot of people use those mice with their hand. Further back Obama on the on the committee reached for the right you know outstanding work so I think that's the big difference but if you like that that that I'd like this one in particular because of all their mice. It has the -- tracking America I think -- the smoothest tracking of any mouse that I wouldn't. With those things being said and I know I said I appreciate you going low of 72 bucks right now into the site -- exe which is a wireless mouse. And I really that's what I'm actually using its later this mouse about the -- A couple of reasons so. They've rebuilt the bodies aren't and -- one of the things I like is the way they did these side buttons. And the site buttons on the new one. The new one side buttons have a little bit more space to them right so you don't lose them on your hands so much. Right you know you can actually get your thumb on them well the casing is a little more solid. And they're charging system is really the coolest parts of it has little Mac lock on the into the cable business bottom here as a little wiring puck that sits here on your desk. And that keeps everything -- of the way. I found that it charges incredibly quickly so I didn't even have to have it connected belt -- it's not Bluetooth I've known someone that's actually -- you like that. I'm not a huge fan of this next you plug the puck into the USB port as a very little -- connector that comes to the MacBook on the front it charges for about five to ten minutes and you're ready to rock and roll me I would simulate prompt me is that I think both those cases are ugly mice but you really care what it looks like. When you're -- that's -- ugly boxes. A -- bags back. It's good. -- I mean but for those people are there really goes to respect you like a twenty dollar Microsoft. Optical mouse and a set -- mouse not a seventy dollar miles but it is something we can dial up the dvi to get up about 1602000. And -- I mean I finally go over people's computers and production department but he using regular mice that -- using a boat war. You know and I'm like where's the sensitivity just like him stands to be get -- it's very useful and it's not just useful bit about my house -- your miles what does that for myself or. -- The the exe is the actual evolution of a product they think they were field testing with us.

Very nice it's not line up. Bill to minimize case -- And -- I hate side windows the 900 man takes gaming series is one of the most useful cases have ever owned so I was stoked you might on. X skeleton PC case minimalist design that -- it's it's fun it is supposed to blend form and function. Course I never met your case they hated until I installed my new core -- that machine Internet and -- skeleton. I I've I've literally I've probably been inside of 2300 different case designs. I had never. Reacted so strongly to case before you know -- it's been awhile since enterprise let's cancel the got to get rid all the props up the step you know I mean buckles on everybody else is gonna might as well get real pour pour. Oh man. That could. Bad warp core humor it's like I like -- that Olympics there -- makes some great cases. This is not one of them is figured little triumph of form over function claims unprecedented air flow because it's basically open.

" to -- to get even worse right let me see if my interest from about yanking the cable articulate where the power supply units -- that's smart threatens to be a yes yes the with a whopping like three activities -- space between your power supply units. And the bog your motherboard yet this thing makes no sense at all. Well it's it's that it's it's an aesthetic thing that's kept it a little slot you can stuff all of your spare cables if you don't have a modular cable thing on there but it. Is there room for you to do a pair of hard drives and you could actually installed as a secondary 120 millimeter band logo for hard drives that I needed one and three happens basic human media adapter. And that. Yeah it's the assembly stage though is annoying as the general design is as -- heat. Wafting up from the power supply underneath yours yours CPU -- graphics card your chipset is is and this is these are bad things. Assembly stage is what really pissed me off our gaming so this -- doesn't just nice and neatly like -- what degree test that occasionally it looks like a great test that right -- the some interesting stuff going on and I'm probably gonna kill the machine in the process of this but. So if you wanna change cards right you gotta unscrew two speakers here what this giant plastic piece on a page that's if you want to change graphics cards. You can slide this tree out back here which is not gonna work they don't have the graphics card. Thing so we got two thumbs -- when you're not saying I was looking for is gonna just take the motherboard traits like it -- do swaps I mean I could use this -- for video card testifying or very well it's usually just that changing if you leave via video cards support off. And you can kinda slide the -- out the whole -- oh wait wait what's that. -- Where the where this of the power supply wouldn't fit so if you -- the cables I mean. So the power supplies under here if you don't have a ninety degree angle on that basically. Permanently bend your powers like cable that. And it would. What those videos or any minute health about going to do like you fast forward montage but they're gonna get to like five minutes later yeah well its -- once you've got. You if you can figure out all the cable Robbins kind of -- oh look just that the audio cables again that's more of an issue with the location of out of Portland design in the case. I just. If you can figure out how to hold the individual cables it's not you can we leave that one. You know you basically have to -- out all of your drive cables up underneath here the power supply unit had to spend about ten minutes working cables that Atlanta slots. It's not too bad once you get it you know if you can. If your motherboard laid out a way to keep everything connected -- still slide this back it's not too bad. Yes yes it was for Austrian put together now my favorite case design got to say -- said -- whole bunch time. Past him. Yeah -- is that more and by the -- again which really important things that -- but that -- at 900 talk about awesome -- built up to gaming machines for myself inside that case I'd -- that case was really easy to work with. And I think what things he pointed out it was delivered to me was those reporters and your -- here in and out of that thing all the time. And it has made some great cases that's not what does not.

" Was so what's your life story your laptop hard drive PC easy USB drives trying to maintain your privacy can be a nightmare even more self what those devices he'd stolen or taken away from okay. So I mean the guys in custody can -- give up the key. But how do you keep stuff safe from people who are a little less. Well -- which impressed that you need something called TrueCrypt here to tell -- more things are burial Roger Chang yes the the -- produces the legendary. So magnificent ward piece known as the Chang. Were these. -- TrueCrypt it is a tree if not completely open source. Encryption. Software was is an open source please stand by millions of -- or is it free video and it's free.

You have to be distributed as it is but people are allowed include look at the code and yet all muscles yeah so publicly so lots and lots of eyeballs and checked yes and it works pretty well and for for most people. It's probably one of the best solutions even. Yeah obesity commercial options out there it's got a bunch of different encryption systems it's -- and -- it seems like he can be a real nightmare try to figure out how to -- the first time because if you if he wants that it's gonna encrypt your. NSC you. -- you were zeros and ones."

" And the thing is true it was actually pretty straightforward it's just the interface is very intimidating if you've actually used it so all I'm actually right here to. But oftentimes it's you know how easy it is to lose one of these things you know who EZ -- people love snagging these weather up there there's there's. And you know it's actually with a good test of -- it so I'm gonna basically plug it into the old US be spot have pop up on mine. PC here what's what's the oh cancel cancel windows. What's the first thing we're gonna do stuff first thing we're gonna do is launch TrueCrypt and we need to create a volume now this volume is essentially a virtual drive partition. On storage device B hard drive USB thumb drive an external drive it's. Encrypted. So that are so that any information you put it it cannot be axis of the past. So I've noticed that you do think we're if you like 23 different letters that you only pick one -- what's going -- Twit now salute if you want it to you could lead literally had that many virtual. TrueCrypt drives available on your system say if you had one. For you only one for me one for both of us that 11 -- like management so you could have a lot of people be able look at things. Using the same thumb drive. But it would only be accessible by that one person or group of people so that we create for. So literally let's just pick feet volume. And it's gonna give -- three options on the screen create an encrypted file containers encrypt a non system partition or drive or encrypt the system partition or the entire system drive. The last two you actually want to leave if you're kind of uncomfortable and with entertainers you drive because if you forget the password. Or you forget to key file or you lose to delete key you will not be able to access it so if if you encrypt your system drag that means basically like watching your operating system requires. Depict it especially depending on what you use four encryption which don't get to an -- so you know for people -- how much start out with create an encrypted file and it's easiest to do it very straightforward. Will click next now we have two types we have a standard TrueCrypt volume. That is a single virtual drive that we that is encrypted and we had -- hidden TrueCrypt volume. Now -- thing about the hidden TrueCrypt volume which I like is that it actually creates a second. Intricate hidden volume in sent the first encrypted volume. And the key and this is let's say you're being extorted someone -- it -- if you don't give me a password I'll release all the suit is about -- affairs that you -- for if you don't give me the password at all what you back into the country. Exactly. The old you basically have a second hidden partition on the that you will not be able to see it lets you know about it at that time. And if you do that you can get okay fine you can have my pastor you can check out this standard portion of the TrueCrypt volume. But they -- they want not it was seen earlier secret -- stuff in there so they can look at you know every have outside. It's kind of security by obscurity -- people do not know what's there because it cannot see it or they do not but if you're -- on what the NSA is something we do not recommend on Tekzilla they will find your. Yet -- I don't -- data on and it's it's a -- sense it's a gig and I can only put 200 on there. And sound I don't know something's up next you'll be presented with normal mode direct mode. Just go with normal mode right now unless you're very you know you -- veteran with that you can skip straight to direct you probably not paying attention this points and next volume location and this is where you wanna set up the virtual drive or encrypted volume. This case that's cookers and this and that's needed something basically test -- So we know what it is. Next. Now it's asking me for the first the outer volume of -- are multi. Russian doll encryption here and it's gonna give me an encryption algorithm -- it looks like the answer that to fish. Or I can do any combination two or three of this while the more you do the longer it will take your machine to do it because it. It would have to go through multiple ciphers but the idea is like any of -- insanely paranoid or insanely bored if you base we're wrapping it encryption incentive encryption says encryption it's a -- your data they have to crack one yeah in the next one minute one. But the the flip side is that you would need more CPU cycles -- or to you know and encrypt it so if you've tried to do like the system volume. And you have a relatively. You know. Slow machine. You gonna be sent out forever so. You know what twenty G timetables and yes the thing is I've never actually been hassled by the authorities I've never had I -- I was leave it it yes. But. You know people have varying opinions on what's better can change the link that the key would -- be like a 4000 it keywords we they're on they're I think two movies are I think they're all 256. That's a pretty big -- to pretty big key yet and you know if you want you can hit you know benchmarking in Tennessee. How well it performs. Let's just do well let's do yes. Just keep things simple okay beavis standard hash algorithm although actually get to more USS HK 512 a whirlpool. -- Everything everybody from the in this thing is once you want to talk to us about different encryption standards -- gives Anemia and -- Revision 3 dot. Now it's gonna give me the outer volumes how big -- I want this virtual encrypted drive to be one -- could. It. Opens it up at all yet will. Good let's say we want to use a little more so we're gonna use the megabyte because you can't use -- you can't say one week 41000. Megabytes so we'll go thirteen hundred here so it's a little less of -- point three gigabytes. And password the very obvious thing. The more the more security is a better -- dictionary words. Use -- and punctuation blower upper case and all that but because it's a TV show and I'm really you know stretch for time to call 12 feet for Tekzilla. Because you know field. Let's -- our dictionary attack now you can use a key file and that is you know -- matching public go with with it but you need to have it on you. When you do it's. You know for comedians say you like you a keep out like if I don't have the files stored in this second thumb drive I can access the data on my heart really get the needs -- that Paramount. Kelly did you pizza to -- physical security yes top of the actual meeting cliffside of course is you you. Increase the amount of inconvenience to you so -- if you lose that USB -- you can be done anything to -- email -- when I look like you need to have it. That file so if you're not if you do if of one of those people is I want everything on this thing only. Then just use a single password and don't worry about whatever breaking what you're super paranoid we broke some -- law. Was case we suggest you turn yourself then so --"

" Next and then I can split between fat and get fast or can choose a cluster -- cluster sizes on weavers in default that. -- can see the random pool is actually just generating. Random -- numbers for the whole -- Just let it let it sit and it picks one and then it's gonna formidable thing. So now my my encrypted. Secret files than enough click on C industry -- ready. On the the drive I don't -- 55 megabytes free and the rest of it is occupied by that test file man rate it. Now it's cool because it's not assisted currently with the TrueCrypt. But. Simply selecting the file in TrueCrypt. So when you say the file of the actual chunk of space that's a chunk of space that entire volume is actually into it in single encrypted. File. So basically like a plug my drive then I go to that highlight right click comment selected he selected through the interface quick open. Now you clicked mountain actually mount the drive depending on what the password is so let's say let's -- the first password and it created -- two -- forward -- This -- mount the drive has. This will now work like it and normal drive now you notice something that there's nothing in it it's. There's nothing and it right now you can even see the heat and clustered in you looks like you have the entire. Let's -- to have the entire this so. It looks like the entire drive that they have. Notice that this local disk is one point 26 gains and estimates and this is one point nine because the local this is a substantive that. -- How to access my advice on how to estimate that well let's that's -- mount dismount the drive yes yes. Now I am going to mount this same drive but this time I'm gonna use the other pastor that -- Or open remembers. Very. And there as you can see now this size this time is 800 megabytes besides victory for the had gone and again it's one of those things if I needed to be if you -- around ten or twenty megabytes you can hide it with them back into it.

" Awesome if via firewire by the court also I know about the -- already has US be so it's more of a US be.

If I don't know what it is it's it's my one terabyte drive for backing stuff up what's fun about it has USB SATA and firewire built up the whole smorgasbord yeah so I you know comparing it against itself right sue if we you know PC manager -- the -- distract -- was like three -- 134 of these are relative scores for these data versus 28. 89 for firewire 400. Versus twice its 45 for the US be. 4485. And these are you know synthetic benchmark scores basically that my internal drive because it's a faster hard drive that was cited here was. You'll more than 25% faster than that he -- was on this drive. So giving a faster drive is your most important consideration. Followed by hopefully using these or firewire 800 or firewire 400 or USB and it -- a lot of money to add on card you don't have any more expansion slots music. You know Patrick he's get started us -- spirit."

" A little bit you don't go with yours -- you -- well honestly I'm not gonna get into all the numbers and stuff because you know where the -- a little different -- quite -- from experience if you don't you just -- you can -- I think you'd be pretty happy -- that and then again if you're gonna record if you're using the camera -- about going to you know a direct to drive sort of -- systems you don't have to do any of that importing video -- the policy -- time to. Remember if you're doing it for fun make sure it's easy for you to play around and have a good time with it don't give us it was attacked our. And you know what if you can save money spend it on camera spoke absolutely -- get wave it helped give you one you know based one terabyte I like the sweet spot for hard drives -- spent last hundred dollars from one terabyte hard drive I would do that rather get you five gigabyte drives just because it's simpler easier to use it. Absolutely I don't think you mean you losing half your data is gonna suck yours you know if you're -- to 500 gigabyte drives you're gonna use one as a back up -- to work drive. Okay better off just by terabyte drive in academia can. Oh he is coming up next -- that that the US are you I know you're you're going US entry point no but I mean come on written by really they really did."

" Yeah yeah yeah Specter put it next year promises faster that you sat and Italy here you power -- spyware pretty 200 coming out which you know away it promises -- let's see you over it is if your speaker the things -- overhead. So the big disadvantage to use these it's clock cycles away from not your view your hard drive but from your computer. Seriously yet USB -- PCI express slots stick with US -- for now unless you get a firewire adaptor here what you know our our via Apple's always going to be used firewire camera absolutely that's my way of -- As windows. We did talk about that we're about into -- until finally has -- firmware upgrade for these drives of the performance issues were seen in the until drives in this is this is not -- drive miniskirts you -- you know. Five he's the -- twenties. You know your. 35000. Verses 448535. Per thousand what's at the verses thirty Apple worked out well it turns up like negative plague in terms of throughput going to from the drive like we're look at that at Maxine this driver max and about it like. A hundred and one the this 121 gigabytes -- you -- hundreds who would do us a hundred what megabytes per second with the maximum throughput we -- in this oversight that. On this one it was like 41 megabytes over -- Major drivers was 76 megabytes maximized my internal drive -- faster hard drive as your best option. You know the cases is last -- disabuse -- or firewire. Go with faster hard drive -- the case this is what about work with Patrick is easily got the numbers to back them up. So I can look good when I talk about -- a little more generally well I've been I've been pretty number free lately but yeah US -- what we're looking at like on the strives like firewire is. 27. Megabytes per second. The data was 41 megabytes per second and USB was 26 megabytes per second so. This via firewire was huge performance difference except that US peace talks -- So from the high tech of these benchmarks you've got a little low tech but -- keyboards. Keyboards that you don't. You type but you're right for what is your main thing it's peaceful aren't we after coming to Wiki which if you've gone through trying to find the right when -- station mentally I've got released by -- time I found the perfect keyboard like fifteen years ago and congratulations on that Joseph have an email -- self confessed computer -- I -- keyboard means everything. When I found a Logitech the no delays are thought my answer -- I was sorely disappointed with the laptop like keyboard and shoddy Bluetooth connection. Can you recommend -- upgrade via Bluetooth. Bluetooth is really simple it either works great for you or at socks. It always sucks for stereo audio if you don't think it's like this because you have portly go to MP threes or org or headphones because it. It's it's a very narrow path it's it's a personal area network it's it's not very good at it long range it should be fine for keyboard and I've actually. Had you know if it's in a lot of times it's like you need to keep swapping fresh batteries. It should be fine for keyboard connection except that it sucks being me Ryan -- very good -- it doesn't always forget you know it's okay for casual browsing and and the quality of like -- if if if you don't have what you want to by the way its site you know Bluetooth its its radio frequencies should be simple and sometimes it is. The rest of the time the system and got such a big list of supporters are pretty. I've actually I'd like six months for the Bluetooth keyboard now and -- that recently like personnel stopped working -- swap in batteries mouse is okay. The keyboards to stop connecting why -- just have some suggestions what can keep working like right now okay it's kinda like. Keyboards are either style or performance absolutely we're gonna hat is very much on the style side of things you -- like keyboards for touch typist for keyboards for gamers right keyboards -- them all these like -- super maximum 4000. Weasel it's like a curved keyboard that -- like that. You know it's it's the to have that and you could save that page is absolutely --"

" And that's where that's really the balance you need chemistry kind of almost see the need to just play with some. I'm using the stealth -- keep a portable keyboards I know it's late not a fancy keyboard or whatever. I really like -- feel that I don't use the site pot don't use any of that stuff I just I'd like the way the keys rebounded to my fingers and."

" Rebounds really critical for for me it's all about typing it's like nine it was so -- the keyboard. I -- for a vintage albums they're not really helps them buckling spring keyboard.

Technology from lexmark it's the same basically my twenty year old keyboards are still being made today. There's a prettier version from political but he is that makes -- gorgeous keyboard the tactile pro has those buckling springs and it's it's about tactile feedback is basically spring inside and when you press the key this bring buckles back and -- to a it's great for typing absolutely. Even prettier in the in mad geek points if you think he points or by buying things is DOS keyboard. Be happy blank black 140s for the boats dot people.com or for normal humans you can buy one that actually -- few letters and numbers on it. Those are all gonna like a 10250.

They want to catalysts that he could expect flight. You know Ferrari to show off a car without the right girl in front of it at the auto show it's the same thing with. Right right it's like. They have that same thing that same energy that would get people talking about it they want to have the glitz and glamour the show was gonna happen not only great software and you're gonna see modern warfare to which I think they're on the site about -- call of duty extension. There's a lot of rumors that are gonna come true that I even in the going to be true. First up -- you Sony's stuff is gonna be amazing you know those shots of that slim PS3. I'm -- here that they might actually be real so next week. You might actually be seeing a brand -- PS3 what's the point of coming out with us you know it's -- over to disable artwork that just losing money and over and -- Patrick -- mean if you read tilt -- it's been three years right so it in the amount of time if you think about what they could -- tech wise. I feel like they probably can save enough money that it's worth retooling the coming in with a new product in the energize the marketing push so die shrink on the CPU absolutely -- power absolutely. All of these things all of those things manufacturing efficiencies. -- that maybe some consolidation of the chip sets that are within the product all of those things and they've repackaged it. New price great software and suddenly they have a revitalized brands are what it would -- most of the CPS three. Anyway what's what do you really looking forward to you can actually talk about this point. You know it's a really really tough question -- have to go with probably the overall PS3 software Linus he's using gaming -- because this seems like heavy rain I mean this is a game I'm looking forward to long time but it's a follow up to a game called indigo prophecy here Fahrenheit over in Europe this long and short of it is it's a game that really gets cinematic gaming. Right it does a record of mercenaries who read it. No this actually has like either fact or fiction that you actually get to get involved and it has a mystery that's going on you doing investigation it does you know those of Apple's quicktime events and people loved to hate. In in an indigo -- hate them because you had a real sense of interactivity instead of just pressing a button you're making motions and it was coordinate with the action in the game and we're seeing the same thing in the first part of heavy rain here. You've got these great cinematic action sequences. What one's gonna see is a joke arts scene. And and your protagonist is escaping to the jump started what is escaping. He's making you're making motions in the control whether that really hoping you into the action. The looks gorgeous great story like I. Super high yeah they were I'd. No I think it's me fantastic and a lot of other cool stuff I mean. What there's -- new PSP hardware that's coming with a bugle allegedly downloadable printing system -- for PS2 games. No physical media like that 3-D motion sensing technology for Xbox-360. My -- reports filed navigation at the front end what's the what's the website a lot of that comes to us that's gonna be able to have a special sockets.

" Yeah politics going on call. I am looking for a good gaming most of under fifty bucks but he's not that Logitech MX just like eighteen. I believe you guys connected to me on this. I think utilities."

" Our friends our first call. That accident is fascinating we're just believe that -- also for TV mice right. Around fifty bucks or less sure it's coming from because you don't want to spend a lot of money on a gaming mouse and you can get really carried away for the throw a couple of suggestions out there -- when I was little look up. Logitech G five is now under fifty bucks and this for like three years was my number one miles -- a great feel to them also by that I mean that's a nice weight and substance to it when it's in your hand feels really good. I like the clicking buttons house you'd be really good feedback. And if you're in the late Leo cool cool show off stuff to your friends think it has -- little pack of weights that you can drop him differently exceed a cubicles subtly like that. What does the point of the adjustable weeks of my house so that. During that era of -- you know a fatality in those guys -- popular there was this theory that they have to under the weight of the mouse. But the weight of the mouse when -- moving it around would it would somehow relate to how quickly could do the flip. -- flip was of course. -- the -- PPI you just take the back of the mouse and scooted to the hair and would be a perfect 180 degrees so if you watch these guys play they were able to -- flick the mouse and get a perfect 180 every time. And they wanted it balanced just so. So the accommodation about was adjustable -- sets so that depending on how -- was that you get that -- to -- exactly what they want it. I mean that you look at this right and I I forgot to bring the special ways that for this one that's like three slots and right droplets that pucker away there's you know what site. I won't disdain anybody wants to use it but unless you're really pro player -- that was different although it might make it more comfortable to you and I mean if you're playing for a long time -- I don't. The other end of the spectrum Francois is the -- death matter. And I've not actually been a big fan of -- newer products because from either -- really likely did they go for that speed demon super lightweight feel. The the buttons on them to -- buttons when he's the most really lightweight I mean I find that -- them by accident lightly like. Blake who easy to it like we'd like should see. -- no -- no accident a really good rubber rice field on them what happens is when your put your fingers on them I find that resting. I oftentimes will be clicking by accident you know because it's so quick and I think that they're for people who float and -- a lot of people use those mice with their hand. Further back Obama on the on the committee reached for the right you know outstanding work so I think that's the big difference but if you like that that that I'd like this one in particular because of all their mice. It has the -- tracking America I think -- the smoothest tracking of any mouse that I wouldn't. With those things being said and I know I said I appreciate you going low of 72 bucks right now into the site -- exe which is a wireless mouse. And I really that's what I'm actually using its later this mouse about the -- A couple of reasons so. They've rebuilt the bodies aren't and -- one of the things I like is the way they did these side buttons. And the site buttons on the new one. The new one side buttons have a little bit more space to them right so you don't lose them on your hands so much. Right you know you can actually get your thumb on them well the casing is a little more solid. And they're charging system is really the coolest parts of it has little Mac lock on the into the cable business bottom here as a little wiring puck that sits here on your desk. And that keeps everything -- of the way. I found that it charges incredibly quickly so I didn't even have to have it connected belt -- it's not Bluetooth I've known someone that's actually -- you like that. I'm not a huge fan of this next you plug the puck into the USB port as a very little -- connector that comes to the MacBook on the front it charges for about five to ten minutes and you're ready to rock and roll me I would simulate prompt me is that I think both those cases are ugly mice but you really care what it looks like. When you're -- that's -- ugly boxes. A -- bags back. It's good. -- I mean but for those people are there really goes to respect you like a twenty dollar Microsoft. Optical mouse and a set -- mouse not a seventy dollar miles but it is something we can dial up the dvi to get up about 1602000. And -- I mean I finally go over people's computers and production department but he using regular mice that -- using a boat war. You know and I'm like where's the sensitivity just like him stands to be get -- it's very useful and it's not just useful bit about my house -- your miles what does that for myself or. -- The the exe is the actual evolution of a product they think they were field testing with us.

" to -- to get even worse right let me see if my interest from about yanking the cable articulate where the power supply units -- that's smart threatens to be a yes yes the with a whopping like three activities -- space between your power supply units. And the bog your motherboard yet this thing makes no sense at all. Well it's it's that it's it's an aesthetic thing that's kept it a little slot you can stuff all of your spare cables if you don't have a modular cable thing on there but it. Is there room for you to do a pair of hard drives and you could actually installed as a secondary 120 millimeter band logo for hard drives that I needed one and three happens basic human media adapter. And that. Yeah it's the assembly stage though is annoying as the general design is as -- heat. Wafting up from the power supply underneath yours yours CPU -- graphics card your chipset is is and this is these are bad things. Assembly stage is what really pissed me off our gaming so this -- doesn't just nice and neatly like -- what degree test that occasionally it looks like a great test that right -- the some interesting stuff going on and I'm probably gonna kill the machine in the process of this but. So if you wanna change cards right you gotta unscrew two speakers here what this giant plastic piece on a page that's if you want to change graphics cards. You can slide this tree out back here which is not gonna work they don't have the graphics card. Thing so we got two thumbs -- when you're not saying I was looking for is gonna just take the motherboard traits like it -- do swaps I mean I could use this -- for video card testifying or very well it's usually just that changing if you leave via video cards support off. And you can kinda slide the -- out the whole -- oh wait wait what's that. -- Where the where this of the power supply wouldn't fit so if you -- the cables I mean. So the power supplies under here if you don't have a ninety degree angle on that basically. Permanently bend your powers like cable that. And it would. What those videos or any minute health about going to do like you fast forward montage but they're gonna get to like five minutes later yeah well its -- once you've got. You if you can figure out all the cable Robbins kind of -- oh look just that the audio cables again that's more of an issue with the location of out of Portland design in the case. I just. If you can figure out how to hold the individual cables it's not you can we leave that one. You know you basically have to -- out all of your drive cables up underneath here the power supply unit had to spend about ten minutes working cables that Atlanta slots. It's not too bad once you get it you know if you can. If your motherboard laid out a way to keep everything connected -- still slide this back it's not too bad. Yes yes it was for Austrian put together now my favorite case design got to say -- said -- whole bunch time. Past him. Yeah -- is that more and by the -- again which really important things that -- but that -- at 900 talk about awesome -- built up to gaming machines for myself inside that case I'd -- that case was really easy to work with.

" Was so what's your life story your laptop hard drive PC easy USB drives trying to maintain your privacy can be a nightmare even more self what those devices he'd stolen or taken away from okay. So I mean the guys in custody can -- give up the key. But how do you keep stuff safe from people who are a little less. Well -- which impressed that you need something called TrueCrypt here to tell -- more things are burial Roger Chang yes the the -- produces the legendary. So magnificent ward piece known as the Chang. Were these. -- TrueCrypt it is a tree if not completely open source. Encryption. Software was is an open source please stand by millions of -- or is it free video and it's free.

You have to be distributed as it is but people are allowed include look at the code and yet all muscles yeah so publicly so lots and lots of eyeballs and checked yes and it works pretty well and for for most people. It's probably one of the best solutions even. Yeah obesity commercial options out there it's got a bunch of different encryption systems it's -- and -- it seems like he can be a real nightmare try to figure out how to -- the first time because if you if he wants that it's gonna encrypt your. NSC you. -- you were zeros and ones."

" And the thing is true it was actually pretty straightforward it's just the interface is very intimidating if you've actually used it so all I'm actually right here to. But oftentimes it's you know how easy it is to lose one of these things you know who EZ -- people love snagging these weather up there there's there's. And you know it's actually with a good test of -- it so I'm gonna basically plug it into the old US be spot have pop up on mine. PC here what's what's the oh cancel cancel windows. What's the first thing we're gonna do stuff first thing we're gonna do is launch TrueCrypt and we need to create a volume now this volume is essentially a virtual drive partition. On storage device B hard drive USB thumb drive an external drive it's. Encrypted. So that are so that any information you put it it cannot be axis of the past. So I've noticed that you do think we're if you like 23 different letters that you only pick one -- what's going -- Twit now salute if you want it to you could lead literally had that many virtual. TrueCrypt drives available on your system say if you had one. For you only one for me one for both of us that 11 -- like management so you could have a lot of people be able look at things. Using the same thumb drive. But it would only be accessible by that one person or group of people so that we create for. So literally let's just pick feet volume. And it's gonna give -- three options on the screen create an encrypted file containers encrypt a non system partition or drive or encrypt the system partition or the entire system drive. The last two you actually want to leave if you're kind of uncomfortable and with entertainers you drive because if you forget the password. Or you forget to key file or you lose to delete key you will not be able to access it so if if you encrypt your system drag that means basically like watching your operating system requires. Depict it especially depending on what you use four encryption which don't get to an -- so you know for people -- how much start out with create an encrypted file and it's easiest to do it very straightforward. Will click next now we have two types we have a standard TrueCrypt volume. That is a single virtual drive that we that is encrypted and we had -- hidden TrueCrypt volume. Now -- thing about the hidden TrueCrypt volume which I like is that it actually creates a second. Intricate hidden volume in sent the first encrypted volume. And the key and this is let's say you're being extorted someone -- it -- if you don't give me a password I'll release all the suit is about -- affairs that you -- for if you don't give me the password at all what you back into the country. Exactly. The old you basically have a second hidden partition on the that you will not be able to see it lets you know about it at that time. And if you do that you can get okay fine you can have my pastor you can check out this standard portion of the TrueCrypt volume. But they -- they want not it was seen earlier secret -- stuff in there so they can look at you know every have outside. It's kind of security by obscurity -- people do not know what's there because it cannot see it or they do not but if you're -- on what the NSA is something we do not recommend on Tekzilla they will find your. Yet -- I don't -- data on and it's it's a -- sense it's a gig and I can only put 200 on there. And sound I don't know something's up next you'll be presented with normal mode direct mode. Just go with normal mode right now unless you're very you know you -- veteran with that you can skip straight to direct you probably not paying attention this points and next volume location and this is where you wanna set up the virtual drive or encrypted volume. This case that's cookers and this and that's needed something basically test -- So we know what it is. Next. Now it's asking me for the first the outer volume of -- are multi. Russian doll encryption here and it's gonna give me an encryption algorithm -- it looks like the answer that to fish. Or I can do any combination two or three of this while the more you do the longer it will take your machine to do it because it. It would have to go through multiple ciphers but the idea is like any of -- insanely paranoid or insanely bored if you base we're wrapping it encryption incentive encryption says encryption it's a -- your data they have to crack one yeah in the next one minute one. But the the flip side is that you would need more CPU cycles -- or to you know and encrypt it so if you've tried to do like the system volume. And you have a relatively. You know. Slow machine. You gonna be sent out forever so. You know what twenty G timetables and yes the thing is I've never actually been hassled by the authorities I've never had I -- I was leave it it yes. But. You know people have varying opinions on what's better can change the link that the key would -- be like a 4000 it keywords we they're on they're I think two movies are I think they're all 256. That's a pretty big -- to pretty big key yet and you know if you want you can hit you know benchmarking in Tennessee. How well it performs. Let's just do well let's do yes. Just keep things simple okay beavis standard hash algorithm although actually get to more USS HK 512 a whirlpool. -- Everything everybody from the in this thing is once you want to talk to us about different encryption standards -- gives Anemia and -- Revision 3 dot. Now it's gonna give me the outer volumes how big -- I want this virtual encrypted drive to be one -- could. It. Opens it up at all yet will. Good let's say we want to use a little more so we're gonna use the megabyte because you can't use -- you can't say one week 41000. Megabytes so we'll go thirteen hundred here so it's a little less of -- point three gigabytes. And password the very obvious thing. The more the more security is a better -- dictionary words. Use -- and punctuation blower upper case and all that but because it's a TV show and I'm really you know stretch for time to call 12 feet for Tekzilla. Because you know field. Let's -- our dictionary attack now you can use a key file and that is you know -- matching public go with with it but you need to have it on you. When you do it's. You know for comedians say you like you a keep out like if I don't have the files stored in this second thumb drive I can access the data on my heart really get the needs -- that Paramount. Kelly did you pizza to -- physical security yes top of the actual meeting cliffside of course is you you. Increase the amount of inconvenience to you so -- if you lose that USB -- you can be done anything to -- email -- when I look like you need to have it. That file so if you're not if you do if of one of those people is I want everything on this thing only. Then just use a single password and don't worry about whatever breaking what you're super paranoid we broke some -- law. Was case we suggest you turn yourself then so --"

" Next and then I can split between fat and get fast or can choose a cluster -- cluster sizes on weavers in default that. -- can see the random pool is actually just generating. Random -- numbers for the whole -- Just let it let it sit and it picks one and then it's gonna formidable thing. So now my my encrypted. Secret files than enough click on C industry -- ready. On the the drive I don't -- 55 megabytes free and the rest of it is occupied by that test file man rate it. Now it's cool because it's not assisted currently with the TrueCrypt. But. Simply selecting the file in TrueCrypt. So when you say the file of the actual chunk of space that's a chunk of space that entire volume is actually into it in single encrypted. File. So basically like a plug my drive then I go to that highlight right click comment selected he selected through the interface quick open. Now you clicked mountain actually mount the drive depending on what the password is so let's say let's -- the first password and it created -- two -- forward -- This -- mount the drive has. This will now work like it and normal drive now you notice something that there's nothing in it it's. There's nothing and it right now you can even see the heat and clustered in you looks like you have the entire. Let's -- to have the entire this so. It looks like the entire drive that they have. Notice that this local disk is one point 26 gains and estimates and this is one point nine because the local this is a substantive that. -- How to access my advice on how to estimate that well let's that's -- mount dismount the drive yes yes. Now I am going to mount this same drive but this time I'm gonna use the other pastor that -- Or open remembers. Very. And there as you can see now this size this time is 800 megabytes besides victory for the had gone and again it's one of those things if I needed to be if you -- around ten or twenty megabytes you can hide it with them back into it. So why not do things like the -- noise on the exactly. Cool project. Thank you so much sheer rock you get it makes way back -- control room."

" Our next question comes Randy he writes and says I'm now getting into video editing and I need an external hard drive of under the impression that he sought it would be the way to go. Is it worth adding -- as opposed to firewire -- B. Also would be wise to know what to 500 gig drives are just a single terabyte drive for the sake of not losing too much info in case of failure. Well okay a lot depends on what your -- has Andy if if you hand you -- about the work."

" Awesome if via firewire by the court also I know about the -- already has US be so it's more of a US be. Or one of the others so if you look at benchmarks on these out of versus firewire versus US because completes to think about one. When you using USB it's it's cheap it's there it's kind of the slowest but it's also the one that uses. What they called was CPU utilization basically sucks clock cycles away from your applications and in -- Parents can do -- reviewers did boss. So if you have firewire already in your system use that over US be kept -- on your system use that over firewire or USB. Although firewire has like zero to be utilization he -- little bit. You know I'm also curious what is input sources because they -- camera he has -- outputs yes from the camera you might want to look at what sort of interface you're gonna have to use to go between your source. And your video editing -- because that's another consideration well and -- part of -- like sometimes you know its its its its its -- the performance because the performance. For for report on the motherboard can be vastly different. From the performance on a car right right so if -- PCI express your probably gold if you even to -- accord for data. If you have PCI. And not PCI express and wouldn't bother getting any SATA car. Firewire is going to do you probably are right PCI but remember you your PCI -- it's -- lots. The but in terms of like pure performance. In internal drive. You know it's it's I -- almost say it's like its unsolicited internal drive is faster it's gonna be the same performance isn't he SATA drive. What can be interesting is the actual physical drive itself -- would like. A Western Digital one terabyte black drive is. Faster than a Western Digital one terabyte green drive probably both of those are gonna be faster than older drive from like one or two years ago we took this. Western Digital. You know what it is in my book. If I don't know what it is it's it's my one terabyte drive for backing stuff up what's fun about it has USB SATA and firewire built up the whole smorgasbord yeah so I you know comparing it against itself right sue if we you know PC manager -- the -- distract -- was like three -- 134 of these are relative scores for these data versus 28. 89 for firewire 400. Versus twice its 45 for the US be. 4485. And these are you know synthetic benchmark scores basically that my internal drive because it's a faster hard drive that was cited here was. You'll more than 25% faster than that he -- was on this drive. So giving a faster drive is your most important consideration. Followed by hopefully using these or firewire 800 or firewire 400 or USB and it -- a lot of money to add on card you don't have any more expansion slots music. You know Patrick he's get started us -- spirit."

" A little bit you don't go with yours -- you -- well honestly I'm not gonna get into all the numbers and stuff because you know where the -- a little different -- quite -- from experience if you don't you just -- you can -- I think you'd be pretty happy -- that and then again if you're gonna record if you're using the camera -- about going to you know a direct to drive sort of -- systems you don't have to do any of that importing video -- the policy -- time to. Remember if you're doing it for fun make sure it's easy for you to play around and have a good time with it don't give us it was attacked our. And you know what if you can save money spend it on camera spoke absolutely -- get wave it helped give you one you know based one terabyte I like the sweet spot for hard drives -- spent last hundred dollars from one terabyte hard drive I would do that rather get you five gigabyte drives just because it's simpler easier to use it. Absolutely I don't think you mean you losing half your data is gonna suck yours you know if you're -- to 500 gigabyte drives you're gonna use one as a back up -- to work drive. Okay better off just by terabyte drive in academia can. Oh he is coming up next -- that that the US are you I know you're you're going US entry point no but I mean come on written by really they really did."

" Yeah yeah yeah Specter put it next year promises faster that you sat and Italy here you power -- spyware pretty 200 coming out which you know away it promises -- let's see you over it is if your speaker the things -- overhead. So the big disadvantage to use these it's clock cycles away from not your view your hard drive but from your computer. Seriously yet USB -- PCI express slots stick with US -- for now unless you get a firewire adaptor here what you know our our via Apple's always going to be used firewire camera absolutely that's my way of -- As windows. We did talk about that we're about into -- until finally has -- firmware upgrade for these drives of the performance issues were seen in the until drives in this is this is not -- drive miniskirts you -- you know. Five he's the -- twenties. You know your. 35000. Verses 448535. Per thousand what's at the verses thirty Apple worked out well it turns up like negative plague in terms of throughput going to from the drive like we're look at that at Maxine this driver max and about it like. A hundred and one the this 121 gigabytes -- you -- hundreds who would do us a hundred what megabytes per second with the maximum throughput we -- in this oversight that. On this one it was like 41 megabytes over -- Major drivers was 76 megabytes maximized my internal drive -- faster hard drive as your best option. You know the cases is last -- disabuse -- or firewire. Go with faster hard drive -- the case this is what about work with Patrick is easily got the numbers to back them up. So I can look good when I talk about -- a little more generally well I've been I've been pretty number free lately but yeah US -- what we're looking at like on the strives like firewire is. 27. Megabytes per second. The data was 41 megabytes per second and USB was 26 megabytes per second so. This via firewire was huge performance difference except that US peace talks -- So from the high tech of these benchmarks you've got a little low tech but -- keyboards. Keyboards that you don't. You type but you're right for what is your main thing it's peaceful aren't we after coming to Wiki which if you've gone through trying to find the right when -- station mentally I've got released by -- time I found the perfect keyboard like fifteen years ago and congratulations on that Joseph have an email -- self confessed computer -- I -- keyboard means everything. When I found a Logitech the no delays are thought my answer -- I was sorely disappointed with the laptop like keyboard and shoddy Bluetooth connection. Can you recommend -- upgrade via Bluetooth. Bluetooth is really simple it either works great for you or at socks. It always sucks for stereo audio if you don't think it's like this because you have portly go to MP threes or org or headphones because it. It's it's a very narrow path it's it's a personal area network it's it's not very good at it long range it should be fine for keyboard and I've actually. Had you know if it's in a lot of times it's like you need to keep swapping fresh batteries. It should be fine for keyboard connection except that it sucks being me Ryan -- very good -- it doesn't always forget you know it's okay for casual browsing and and the quality of like -- if if if you don't have what you want to by the way its site you know Bluetooth its its radio frequencies should be simple and sometimes it is. The rest of the time the system and got such a big list of supporters are pretty. I've actually I'd like six months for the Bluetooth keyboard now and -- that recently like personnel stopped working -- swap in batteries mouse is okay. The keyboards to stop connecting why -- just have some suggestions what can keep working like right now okay it's kinda like. Keyboards are either style or performance absolutely we're gonna hat is very much on the style side of things you -- like keyboards for touch typist for keyboards for gamers right keyboards -- them all these like -- super maximum 4000. Weasel it's like a curved keyboard that -- like that. You know it's it's the to have that and you could save that page is absolutely --"

" And that's where that's really the balance you need chemistry kind of almost see the need to just play with some. I'm using the stealth -- keep a portable keyboards I know it's late not a fancy keyboard or whatever. I really like -- feel that I don't use the site pot don't use any of that stuff I just I'd like the way the keys rebounded to my fingers and."
