Microsoft stated on their website they are going to be ending support for the Original xbox games. After April 15th users will not be able to play games such as halo or halo 2 on xbox live.


"This isn't a decision we made lightly, but after careful consideration, it is clear this will provide the greatest benefit to the Xbox Live community," Whitten said. "And as we look down the road, we'll continue to evolve the service with features and experiences that harness the full power of Xbox 360. To reach our aspiration, we need to make changes to the service that are incompatible with our original Xbox v1 games."

As we all know chinese knock offs are starting to invade every product market. Apple, Nintendo, sony, Gucci, and nike have all fell victim to the cloned versions of them selves. They have made millions, if not billions, of dollars cloning and selling goods to unexpected people. First it was the ipod, then the Itouch, and now... the Iphone.


Well not exactly the iphone... but similar...
It floats like an iphone but stings like a Android.

The ZM-NC2000 is designed to be "aerodynamic" and a noise reducer. This baby is designed with fine curvature and great cooling performance. It was made with a 3mm thick aluminum panel, a Rubber Grip Strip, and  two fans that blow air out. Normal coolers  suck the hot hair below the notebook but this one blows up for optimum cooling. It is powered by the notebooks usb, but could be powered externally with the right adapter. The best part of all is the fan control. You can control the speed of the fans with the control on the side panel.
It costs roughly about $55... not bad for a really good cooler. Best if bought with a new laptop.
