Handheld rotary tools have long been a staple for every modders toolkit. One brand of handheld rotary tool has become so popular that like Kleenex, the brand name is often used to describe all handheld rotary tools. For those who are confused, I am talking about none other than the Dremel. Not all “dremels” are created equally and today we will be taking a look at the newest member of the Dremel family, the Dremel 4000. Continue reading

Once upon a time, if you wanted a “ultra-light” laptop, you would have to spend close to $1500. However, times sure have changed. Now netbooks which are smaller and more powerful than yesteryear’s Ultra-lights can be commonly found in the $300 – $500 range. Today we are going to take a look at Lenovo’s S10 netbook to see just how it stacks up. Continue reading
Big C makes a series o f high end digital microscopes for hobby or professional use. They call the standard microscope series “Dino-Lite”. There are many models available, with different resolutions, zoom levels, and functions; some are UV or IR, and there are models available with a metal shell instead of plastic.

I was curious to see just how much fun these things can be. I’ve seen them on thinkgeek, woot, and in numerous catalogues before and have always been curious. After putting it through a comprehensive characterization process, I think it might be on my Christmas list! Continue reading

Anyone who’s had to keep the vast array of firewall, antivirus, and other security-related software up to date on a PC knows what a royal pain it can be. New versions, definition files, and an ever expanding array of malicious software (and even normal software) conspire to bring the whole house of cards down.
The Yoggie Gatekeeper Pico aims to simplify all these functions by taking them out of the system’s hands and onto a small USB device not much bigger than many flash drives. The device actually contains its own onboard processor, memory, and hardened linux system – in essence, it’s a small computer designed to sit between your computer and the wild frontier of public networks.
The hawking home automation system is another option in the increasingly popular world of Internet-enabled home remote systems. One great thing about this system is that there is no required software to install. I did the entire setup process on a Linux computer with Firefox 3 and it worked great. This means that the Hawking HomeRemote Pro system will work with any computer, as long as it has a modern web browser and an Internet connection. There may possibly be issues with strongly firewalled home networks, or homes that do not have a router, but a conventional network setup will not cause any problems.
