Review: Logitech G11 Gaming Keyboard

Contributed by shamanstears on January 3, 2007 under Technology reviews

I have been searching for a backlit keyboard for quite some time, and have been quite unimpressed with my findings. That is until I came across the Logitech G11 Gaming Keyboard. This is a quality piece of work with illuminated characters on every key and 3 levels of backlighting. I was very happy with the feel of the keyboard as well, a very positive experience with great feel and good layout. The only feature I wasn’t too happy with was the volume control, it utilizes a dial instead of buttons.

Review: Nintendo Wii (game console)

Contributed by seamonkey420 on December 23, 2006 under Technology reviews

They offered a new way to play and not graphical/audio upgrades or raw power.. Did Nintendo succeed in its marketing of its console (blue ocean strategy)? Or is it just a supercharged Gamecube (GCN) w/novel controls? Lets find out.
