PS4 price, hardware specs, and games detailed: The anti-Xbox One
At long last, we finally know everything about Sony's upcoming PS4. Sebastian exuberantly explains that the PS4 smacks the Xbox One straight in the gut: The PS4 will not be always-online, will allow you to freely trade your games, and will cost just $400. In short, it seems like the PS4 now has a sizable lead over the Xbox One. Read on for our full analysis of the PS4's price, hardware, software, connectivity, and games. Check out what went down during the Sony conference, amusing second by amusing second.


iOS 7 interface and new features detailed: The biggest update since the first iPhone
Yesterday's Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) keynote from Apple was jam-packed with information. New Macs, iTunes Radio, and OS X Mavericks were announced, but the biggest news was undoubtedly the unveiling of iOS 7. Helmed by Jony Ive, this new mobile operating system has a brand new look, and countless new features. The new iOS is also making a a bold move for the car dash.


Xbox One vs. PS4: How Microsoft could push the Xbox back into the lead
Having revealed the consoles a few months ago, Sony and Microsoft officially threw down yesterday during their respective E3 press conferences by showing the world what each console is all about. Sony's conference was more or less a resounding success, whereas Microsoft's fell somewhere short of that. Right now, the feel of the gaming world is that Sony has already won the next generation, so what can Microsoft do to combat that? James provides some answers. Microsoft doesn't seem to be handling the public's reaction to the Xbox One very well, either.


How NSA's Prism affects you, and how to protect yourself from being spied on
Unless you have been living under a rock, you will have heard the news that the US government is apparently spying on almost every digital bit that passes through the nation's optical fiber highways or is stored in data centers inside its borders. Whether you're a citizen of the US or an international user who uses a US-based service, you would be wise to put a few protections in place to protect your privacy. If you're not scared yet, maybe now you'll be.


Apple's new Mac Pro: Is this the workstation we've all been waiting for?
Apple's new Mac Pro is breathtakingly different -- but that doesn't make it a great design. If your current setup doesn't conform to certain standards, moving to a new Mac Pro is going to be a considerable headache.


Google Glass teardown: Futuristic on the outside, thoroughly underwhelming on the inside
In something of a political statement towards Google Glass's potential privacy pitfalls, two engineers have violated the privacy of Google's augmented reality specs and completed the first ever teardown. Despite Glass's futuristic appearance, its internals surprisingly rather contemporary. For more details, read on.


AMD unveils world's first 5GHz CPU
In a desperate ploy to stay relevant, AMD has announced the first commercially available CPU to hit 5GHz: the FX-9590. Like its flagship predecessor, the FX-8350, the new chip features four Piledriver modules, which roughly equates to eight cores (but not really). For those of you who can't afford the FX-9590, AMD is also releasing the FX-9370, which is identical except for a slightly lower clock of 4.7GHz. Both chips are unlocked for further overclocking.
