About Me

What can I say, I'm just another tech geek!

I wouldn't call myself an expert in gadgets, but I've learned my share of ins and outs over the years. I'm a big fan of gaming, but I like just about all things geeky. And, if you haven't noticed from the pic, I'm a big Family Guy fan as well.

When I sit down to watch a movie or TV, I always forget to turn off the lights. In the past, this would require me to get up off of the couch, hit the switch, and sit back down again. Even worse, when an intermission was needed, I'd have to get up and kick on the lights again in order to...

Could All Handheld TV's be Rendered Useless?

By Tie Guy on May 13, 2005 12:06 PM
