Review: DreamSpa AquaFan Rainfall LED/LCD Shower Head

Review: DreamSpa AquaFan Rainfall LED/LCD Shower Head

Aug 30, 2015

Your shower head is not necessarily the first item you’d think of for a high tech replacement. The DreamSpa AquaFan 12″ All-chrome Rainfall Shower Head with Color-Changing LED/LCD Temperature Display, however, may force you to reconsider. You get the shower head, plumber’s tape, and instructions (front view). You get the...

Review: Gunilamp 9.5w Bluetooth LED Smart Light Bulb

Review: Gunilamp 9.5w Bluetooth LED Smart Light Bulb

Aug 30, 2015

Just when many of us got through transitioning most, if not all, of our incandescent bulbs to far more efficient compact flourescent light (CFL) bulbs, along came practical light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs to put both to shame.

Review: Arespark Self Picture Monopod

Review: Arespark Self Picture Monopod

Aug 26, 2015

I admit it, I’ve had it with selfie stick reviews. I steadfastly refuse to review them unless they offer some type of differentiator from their Tribble-like brethren.

Review: OnyxLED Desk Lamp

Review: OnyxLED Desk Lamp

Aug 25, 2015

I admit it, I’m particular about my working environment.

Why continued success for Microsoft Windows and Office is no big deal

Why continued success for Microsoft Windows and Office is no big deal

Aug 21, 2015

A heated discussion on one of the many forums I frequent dredged up the usual desire and possible path for the “obviously superior” Linux to dethrone Microsoft Windows on the desktop. I think 1998 or 1999 was the first potential “Year of the Linux Desktop,” followed by every year thereafter....

Review: Solana Adjustable Wood Desk Easel with Drawers

Review: Solana Adjustable Wood Desk Easel with Drawers

Aug 20, 2015

Yet another curve ball of a review here on Armchair Arcade, today I’m looking at the US Art Supply Solana Adjustable Wood Desk Easel with Drawers. It’s a high quality, wooden easel that’s fully adjustable up to four different angles. It includes a drawer with three compartments, as well as...
