A quick look at Gorf with Magic Voice for the Commodore 64 (includes video)

Jan 29, 2016

I was messing around with some PAL- and NTSC-based Commodore 64 stuff, and just happened to finally get a chance to test out a Commodore Magic Voice Speech Module with the Commodore cartridge conversion of Bally Midway’s arcade classic, Gorf. Both are fairly early Commodore products and definitely not the...

Review: Ausdom M05 Bluetooth Over-ear Headphones

Jan 29, 2016

If you’re looking for wireless Bluetooth headphones in a form factor other than in the ubiquitous earbud-style, there’s finally a quality solution. The Ausdom M05 Bluetooth Over-ear Headphones can be used both wired, via a 3.5mm audio cable, or wireless, via its Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity, and it uses the popular...

Review: Aootek Intelligent LED Night Light and Table Lamp

Review: Aootek Intelligent LED Night Light and Table Lamp

Jan 21, 2016

Although my two oldest daughters no longer need it, one of their favorite night lights used to be a little glowing, rubberized figure that charged when it was docked to its base, so it could then be used as a portable. The Aootek Intelligent LED Night Light and Table Lamp...

Review: Phshion 41W 5 Port Auto Sense USB Charger

Review: Phshion 41W 5 Port Auto Sense USB Charger

Jan 20, 2016

With seemingly everything USB-connected or -powered these days, it’s more important than ever to have free USB ports. Unfortunately, since there is so much USB-based stuff out there, even if you do have lots of ports (my desktop alone has close to a dozen), it’s still difficult to find any...

Upgrading the Commodore PET 2001-8: Part 2

Upgrading the Commodore PET 2001-8: Part 2

Jan 19, 2016

To quickly recap from Part 1, I had purchased the PET microSD with datasette power and Commodore PET 2001 ROM/RAM upgrade board from Tynemouth Software, and I thought I’d document the upgrade process on my Commodore PET 2001-8 for those interested in doing it themselves. As we left off, I...

Review: PDP PS3 Versus Controller (plus additional new Retro Freak console information)

Jan 10, 2016

I bought the PDP PS3 Versus Controller specifically to use with the Retro Freak console from Cyber Gadget that I reviewed here, although this can of course be used with an actual PlayStation 3, PC, or other devices that can utilize standard USB controllers. As you’ll note from the Retro...

Review: Sound Intone I65 Stereo Foldable Headphone

Review: Sound Intone I65 Stereo Foldable Headphone

Jan 10, 2016

The Sound Intone I65 Foldable Headphones are really nice and an amazing price for what you get–$18.98 on Amazon at the time of this review. First, the headphones are very comfortable. The headpiece adjusts to the perfect length and the ear piece is nicely cushioned and a generous size so...

Review: iOttie Easy One Touch 3 Car Mount

Review: iOttie Easy One Touch 3 Car Mount

Jan 10, 2016

I was hesitant about reviewing yet another car mount, but I’m glad I did for the iOttie Easy One Touch 3 Car Mount. The build quality alone is enough to elevate it above most other car mounts, but it’s the wonderful configuration options that really set this apart. The front...
