Besides being absolutely beautiful, this Sync Desktop concept from designer Gareth Battensby features a fold-away widescreen monitor and keyboard, a built in USB hub, scanner, mouse, webcam, easy-to-access DVD unit, and plenty of storage space.

The only problem is that I doubt that it could ever become a commercial product unless there was a way to upgrade the hardware. [Gareth Battensby via Born Rich]

When I was talking with the SteelSeries guys about their gear, one thing they were serious about was that gaming is a sport. I scoffed.

His name is Dr. Francisco Gómez Bravo, and he’s one of the top plastic surgeons here, in the Old Continent.
Until that fatal moment, it was business as usual. My morning started like it normally does lately: dead in bed after a hangover from a night out, as opposed to my usual half-dead state. Addy and myself are moving to London next month, […]

I’m not sure what show this video is from, but it is funny—and that dude’s skills with a digging machine are impressive to say the least.
