Once apon a time, using a 17″ flat panel display (indeed, owning any kind of TFT display) was considered pretty darn geeky and cool. Having received a good year or two out of my no-name 17″ Chinese knock-off it became increasingly clear I needed more desktop real-estate.. enter, stage left the ASUS VW192T, a 19″ DVI widescreen display sporting a maximum of 1440×900dpi with a trifle five millisecond refresh rate.

Okay,
.. for those who don’t know yet, I’ve gained a growing interest in Radio Controlled micro helicopters. The above is the result of today’s visit to the local hobby store. This little hot-rod is a fully 6 channel, fully aerobatic, proportional control micro heli.
In my youth, such a nimble, electric powered model of this type […]
Being as I am the supreme geek and chancing apon a hawkers stall on Sunday, whilst visiting a local “market”,
