Tech Update Used to be Good Then it Took an Arrow in the Knee

This is all the cheer you’ll get out of me. It’s holiday time… that means the flights to NY cost a fortune. No cold weather for me. Instead I’ll be running around, climbing virtual mountains in Skyrim, trying out Frozen Synapse, and running through Trine 2.

The 7970 is the big news as some websites are already posting reviews. It’s not as fast as I thought it was going to be but it’s still fast enough. They probably hyped it too much… Wait, AMD never hypes anything (Bulldozer). Anyway, here are some links…
