Updated Revo 3610 + Deals

hot-deals-burst-w-path-bkgrd

It has been a while since I updated, but I am working on updating all the links and hopefully brining a lot more content soon. First off as far as I can tell Acer has discontinued the Aspire Revo AR1600 as almost everyone is sold out of it now. You still might be able to find it at your local Best Buy or Fry's Electronics however as they have carried them in the past. However it looks like Acer has update the AR3610, and have released the
Acer Aspire Revo AR3610-U2002
, the specs are exactly the same as the older 3610, however it now comes with a 250GB hard drive and has a black wireless keyboard and mouse. A special deal until 7/29 Newegg will have it on sale for $320 + free shipping (use promo code EMCYVNP44 at checkout)!

Newegg is also offering the
Rosewill Windows 7 Certified Media Center IR Remote
for $17 + free shipping with promo code EMCYVNP65.

Also I searched google images for "deals" and I tried to pick the worst image out there, I hope you guys like it :)

    [Review] Flash 10.1 Official Release + Video Review

    Adobe has just officially released Flash 10.1 out into the market, which means no more betas and no more release candidates. I figured it was important to get an official review out there for you guys and tell you what I thought. I will say that so far I am extremely impressed.

    First off I wanted to test out internet streaming videos to see if anything has changed. I checked out Hulu, South Park Studios, ESPN3, and Youtube HD and everything was great. The biggest change I saw was that the overlays on top of the video, such as video controls and information don't have any effect on the video like they did before. Overall a great experience.

    Next on my list was Hulu Desktop and I sat through the latest episode of Glee and The Office in High quality and it was great. There weren't as many cuts or hiccups in the video, and overall I was very pleased.

    The biggest issue I have had in the past was with Internet TV inside of Windows Media Center. In some of the past RC releases there has been issues, however now everything seems to be working just fine. I tested a few shows and "overall" it was good, not perfect like Hulu Desktop, but very watchable. There were some hiccups on a few videos, but I could sit and enjoy them.

    I tried Boxee one last time and while I did find out that CBS content played back fine just about everything else didn't. At this point I would say go ahead and uninstall any RC or beta you had installed and go ahead and install the official release now.

    I have also put a little video together. I apologize for any video or audio issues as I am just using my little camera for video. Here you go:
