Earlier this week the Android community learned what Google meant with Open Source. Clearly what Cyanogen, maker of CyanogenMod, had been doing something that violated their idea with their mobile operating system. The actions were a cease and desist order on Cyanogen making his popular mobile Operating System (OS). Many users are running this Operating System for many reasons, some of the main ones are stability, accessibility, and better resource usage. This is even more prevalent on the newly release Hero from HTC, which people have claimed to have been given last years hardware with next years ROM, I personally beg to differ, but that’s a whole other story.

So I’ve been in with computers for about 4 years now, and it’s come to my attention the absolutely childishness that goes on in commercials, over forums, and in general arguments (walk into Starbucks and say “Mac Sucks” or “Steve Jobs is an Asshole”) and see what happens. Now with the iPhone taking precedence over the lives of many, without them realizing it makes them rant and rave about their new lightsaber application, or the one that puts an Osama Bin-Laden beard and turban on the picture that was JUST taken of them. Or how it can “drink a beer and pour a new one up at the push of a button.” or even so far as a lighter for concerts. None of these have use, but you’re suckered into buying it like a damned fool.

Oh yeah, you’ve read correctly. Tippmann has made Laser Tag a possibility with Predator Games ‘ patented high tech laser tag system. This will bring new traffic to fields for children, and those that may have been afraid to play paintball, or to those who were skeptical of it. They would get to try it. This will also be a cost effective way to practice, since as we all may be aware, field paint is a bit overpriced but, it does help keep the field up, but if they paid a rental on the laser gun and a CO2 canister they would be still making money.

This is the new game from Bioware and Lucasarts. Based 300 years after the Knights of the Old Republic series, but now an MMO. Looks like a good game. So far there are 2 factions which are The Sith Empire, and there is also The Galactic Republic. These factions get classes, however each class is faction specific and has its counterpart.

I love it. Plain and simple. I will recommend it to everyone, however only after full release. If you enjoy video games, do not touch the Release Candidate. It’s not working out for me. Punk buster does not work, so Call of Duty, Battlefield 2/2142, FEAR or Americas Army will not work online. Counter Strike works well, however I am having hardware problems, so I will no longer be using it. I may dual boot however, so I can use 7 regularly. At this current moment, I am severely debating a format re-install of Vista so that I can play games, and have some of my laptops functionality back. On a desktop this would work better, I’m sure of it. I am going to buy it for my next PC build, because I won’t be building one until Windows 7 is released. And I will get the Ultimate edition. Otherwise, give it a go. I am glad that I back everything up all the time, so the format will go by smoothly for me anyhow. Also, as a note for anyone doing the upgrade, uninstall any Anti-Virus programs, they get ruined on the install of Windows 7.
