With Father’s Day just a few days away, it’s easy for me to throw out a list of great tech gifts and say that we all want these. However, not all dads have the same tastes. Take my own dad for example. We have far different tech needs. and rarely agree on products. What I would be getting my dad would be different than I would want myself, so we’re going to show you both sides. With the help of my own dad, here is how we look at some of the hottest tech gifts this year that you can bring home for Father’s Day.

I have always been a big fan of the Xbox in all of its iterations. From the Original Xbox which brought me and my friends endless hours of Halo: Combat Evolved multiplayer action, to the Xbox One where I have been dropping titans with unmatched glee, now in Titanfall for over a year. The consoles might be great but there are also some great accessories out there which can certainly improve the experience and I got the info to help you do just that!

For the past few weeks, I’ve been exploring the ever shrinking PC. From the Ultrabook to the mini PC, computers have gotten smaller with every generation. However, in this final series post, I’ll look at PCs that have resisted the trend and seem unlikely to get the mini treatment any time soon.

Massively multiplayer games are a lot of fun; they give you the excitement and action of a great game, and they add to it by letting you play with your friends … a lot of your friends.

Setting up an office in a compact space used to be a lot more challenging than it is now. For one thing, there were a lot more wires and cables to deal with in those pre Wi-Fi days, but space was also a major issue. PCs were bigger, but so were the peripherals essential to a home office. Keyboards were massive, external hard drives were in enclosures that dwarf those of today and a laser printer practically needed a desk to itself. Thanks to advances in miniaturizing components, some of these devices are even available as portable units now. In this latest installation on the evolution of the PC from room-sized appliance to today’s mini computers, I explore shrinking PC peripherals.
