When manufacturers begin showing off new and wonderful things to improve our lives, we need to tell you about it. This time our lives will be improved in a fun and exciting way we have never before seen!

This is what I’ll be writing about today -- technology that enhances our enjoyment of using our PC’s. |

Every once in a while, a PC game comes along that is different than the rest. The game isn't necessarily better, more fun, or superior to other games, but it has one quality that makes it stand out -- it is friggin addicting! I think just about every gamer out there can recall at least a few games to which they were undeniably addicted. These are the games that cause you to lose sleep, miss school or work (sometimes on purpose), or that you spend literally hundreds of hours playing. |

If you look back many years to the dawn of 3D acceleration, you can't help but be amazed at how far the technology has progressed. Back in the "Glide-only-days" of NHL 98, Need for Speed 1 & 2 SE, and the plethora of other "3D accelerated" games, the 3dfx Voodoo was king and a user with one was a god. |
