Asus stops shipping recovery DVD with Eee PC
March 13, 2010
The folks at Asus seem to have finally got it, as the top management decided to stop manufacturing as well as shipping the recovery DVD which comes with each package of the Eee PC. Why, you ask? Just in case your memory eludes you, there is no optical drive with the Eee PC, so you will need to fork out more money to get an external DVD drive instead, and it would be interesting to do a simple survey and find out just how many Eee PC users actually own a DVD drive. Good shout, Asus, better late than never and at least you will do your bit in saving the environment.

Games on Demand Hits Windows LIVE
December 16, 2009
PC gamers who have been drooling by Xbox gamers who could access Games on Demand to purchase easily will now have something to smile about. Microsoft has decided to supply a similar service for PC users in the scheme of a new service called Games for Windows LIVE. The client that is needed to access the games will be offered for free, and the games line up does seem rather comprehensive, as it includes titles like Fallout 3, DiRT 2, Resident Evil 5, Street Fighter IV, Battlestations Pacific, FUEL, Viva Pinata, Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, Shadowrun, Section 8, Juiced 2, and Red Faction: Guerrilla. Do you think that that will build your PC a more desirable gaming platform instead of the Xbox, or do you still favor the Xbox? Let us know your thoughts on it in the comments section.
