According to Tokyo’s Nikkei (which is the equavalent of the Wall Street Journal), there is a new DS coming soon. The new DS will sport a camera (games are going to be built to incorporate the camera), built in Wi-Fi, and have music playback. It will not be a entirely new gaming device, but another version of the DS we have now. Good thing I never bought the DS Lite, maybe I’ll pick this up if it shows to be promising.

This error usually occurs when playing Counter Strike Source. There is a simple solution to fixing it.
1. Go to the Tray (Bottom right on taskbar), right click and exit Steam.
2. Open up Windows Explorer, and go to C:/programfiles/Steam and delete ClientReqistery.blob.
3. Then open up Steam, it will update, and then you should be back to playing your games.

This sleeve fits any laptop up to 15.4 inches, keeps everything sleek, shiny, and scratch-free. Now you can buy it through ThinkGeek for $29.99 plus shipping. But the word “Document” is missing an s, and it would probably bother a lot of people.

Walmart had a contest to see which company would reduce the most enviromental impact. Walmart’s goal was to make products green-er. HP won and their solution was to cut the boxes and excess materials, and just give the laptop (Pavilion dv6929wm) in a bag. HP’s laptop is going to be sold exclusively in Walmart and Sam’s Club Stores. There is no word on specifications yet but the laptop will sell for $798. Not a bad idea, might just cut down a lot of cardboard use in their factories.
