Looking for a PC case

Today pc cases are too big, too many slots, too much waste of space on my desk.
Fortunately there are small motherboards, but I would prefer, for future expandability, to keep the ATX.
So what?
I'm looking for a small/middle ATX tower case...
I like the "monolitic" design without frills, but I love windows! (no leds/ fan with leds)
Meanwhile, I spotted these:

Fractal R2 Arc Midi

Dimensions: 230 x 460 x 515mm
Too big! But it has window and a good airflow

Dimensions: 210 x 500 x 493mm
Big and many fan slots, dust filters, window

Virtual Reality

What happened to the Virtual Reality so often dreamed in the 80's and 90's?

What do we have today? Especially in the homes of consumers?

Sony Move: ok, but it seems very primitive
Nintendo Wiimote: Like Move, more or less
MS Kinect: Good, detects motion, objects (with nothing in your hands) and "textures" (pictures).

But none of these immerses the player / user in a virtual world as we thought then.

What is missing? The classic goggles to wear, maybe with orientation sensors to direct the viewport (the view of the game, the camera in the 3D environment) and then show to the player what he should see.

MS IllumiRoom for the Kinect 2 and XBOX720

The next Xbox will have, as an accessory, a projector to project the game on the walls of your room (maybe using the Kinect to see where you're looking at?). Is it considered AR (augmented reality) or VR?
We'll see ...

Nope, Google Glass is not VR imho, but AR like Google Googles in your ... googles.


What do you think? What's the next step? What's the true VR?

Playstation 4!!!!

Sincerely I don't give a ****

LOL Share button on the Ps4 controller...

HP, are you mad?

RaspberryPI Lego case #1

Ispired by http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/1354
I found my old Lego pieces ('80s) and ...

for my future RaspBerryPI... :P

Yep, it's dirty, it needs a wash.

Web server, multimedia center, etc... the RBPi can do different things... what does your RBPi?

A new way too cool your computer: Sandia Cooler

In few words a fanless heatsink because itself is a "fan".

The idea is very simply, but it works very well!!

On store... I don't know.

Storage evolution...

Do ou never thought about the evolution of storage?


Take a look:

Windows Surface... tablet

http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en/us/default.aspx

Microsoft released its tablet with the name of Surface... but wait, Surface is not the PixelSense tecnology?
Ok, no more confusion.
Surface is the tablet and the PixelSense (called Surface too) is PixelSense.

Take a look what is PixelSense: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/pixelsense/default.aspx

More info about Surface: http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en/us/about.aspx
Specs: http://www.microsoft.com/global/surface/en/us/renderingassets/surfacespecsheet.pdf

The design is very beautiful, the keyboard is very smart.
The Surface PRO has Window 8 PRO, so I think it has a x86 cpu (so you can run your x86 applications)
I suppose that the Ipad has a great competitor now.

The Microsoft Tablet

Lol, no, not a Xp tablet (it's pretty... I want thit vintage-tech, but this is another story)

So rumors say Microsoft is to launch its own tablet... uhm... x86? Arm? I don't know.

All the attention is for the name! What will Microsoft call its tablet?

MicroPad? (hurrdurr)
SoftPad?
WinPad?
WinTab?  (this -pad- word break my ass)
8Pad?
8Tab?
MicroTab?
BallmerTab?

Boom of requests for Raspberry Pi

The mini-computer with the ARM processor and 256MB of ram, capable of multiple things (like a media center in  1080p video playback) has received a boom in purchase orders

Very, very interesting. It's pity that they will take months to execute all orders!
