Geek news, reviews & more

Today while casually browsing my Facebook timeline, I stumbled along a post made by a friend of mine who had found a page on the Best Buy online store for an HP computer (cached). It looked like a run-of-the-mill desktop PC, but after a clear glance of the price tag, I immediately knew this was not like any other computer that I’d ever seen before. This one in particular was a pinnacle of technical innovation, a trophy of humanities achievements, and it was, ever so elegantly, tipping the scales at 1.1 Million dollars.

In case you had any doubts, Keanu Reeves is a gentleman -- (Video)

If you haven’t read lately, Keanu Reeves may be the most single tragic human being to walk the planet. But despite what life has given him, he’s still been able to pick himself up and be that awesome dude you wish all actors would be. Keanu saved us all from the machines and the grip of the Matric, and here he is saving a lady from having to stand while on the subway. Beautiful — *tear*.

Samsung's Galaxy S II commercial gives Apple a sting but still makes us laugh - Video

Samsung's Galaxy S II commercial gives Apple a sting but still makes us laugh - Video

“I can’t get a Samsung, I’m creative” says the neck-beard touting, iPhone tapping Yuppie. “Dude, you’re a barista…” — That’s got to be one of the greatest lines in commercial history. Don’t get us wrong, this commercial is a clear stab at Apple fans, but as the owners of many Apple products we find this absolutely awesome and refreshingly hilarious.

GameTrailers Montage shows their true colors -- (Video)

GameTraliers (and many other huge game review sites) are known for their strange choices in what makes good games good, and bad games bad. We’ve heard stories about their legitimacy and ethics, but this is just hilarious. We’re not saying it reflects their employees or writers in any way, we just think it’s funny to see how out of touch some people are.

iPhone folder glitch allows you to place a folder inside a folder - Video

iPhone folder glitch allows you to place a folder inside a folder - Video

A folder inside a folder? We’ve gone too deep and crashed the phone! Well, that’s what the guy at FuriousTechnology have done. You can use a little slight of hand (and a little luck) to fool your iPhone into placing a folder inside another folder. This isn’t an issue that needs fixing though, it’s a glitch, that if Apple polished a little, could be fun to use!

How this guy (and many others) snagged a free Battlefield 3 CD Key from EA support

Since the release of Battlefield 3, EA support has been receiving calls and chats regarding “broken CD keys”. The issue arises when a customer buys a copy of Battlefield 3 and finds out when trying to activate their game that their CD key isn’t working. Obviously, this would make a lot of people angry, but usually issues like this are rare and often happen in isolated cases. If the CD key table for all Battlefield 3 purchases were in-fact corrupted, 100% of people would have this problem, not just “a few” people. If it were the authentication servers, that would be the problem, not the CD keys. EA has been trolled…
