I think it’s hilarious that some guy spit in Mike Arrington’s face. I think it’s even more hilarious that Arrington thinks he’s somehow spiting the internet by taking a month off from blogging. Take the whole year, Mike!

HTPC is Materializing
Got two components for my HTPC today from newegg.com:
ASUS EAH3450/DI/256M ATI Radeon HD 3450 256MB 64-bit GDDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Low Profile Video Card
Thermaltake LANBOX Lite VF6000BNS Black SECC Gaming Cube Computer Case
The case is bigger than I expected, but the piano finish looks great.
