Can you see the man? April 27, 2007

This is bizarre - after you find the guy -it’s so obvious. Once you find him you think, why didn’t I see him immediately?

Doctors have concluded that if you find the man in the coffee beans in 3 seconds, your right half of your brain is better developed than most people. If you find the man between 3 seconds and 1 minute, your right half of the brain is developed normally. If you find the man between 1 minute and 3 minutes, then the right half of your brain is functioning slowly and you need to eat more protein. If you have not found the man after 3 minutes, the advice is to look for more of this type of exercise to make that part of the brain stronger!!!

And, yes, the man is really there!!!

Are you as big of a Mario Kart fan as we are? Have you kept your Nintendo 64 around for the sole purpose of beating your brother in “Battle Mode” yet again? Yes? Then you’ll turn all gooshy when you see Mario come to life speeding down your hallway shouting “lets-a-go!”. Yep, this R/C Mario Kart Racer is over 12″ long and features various sound effects from the game.

Steer Mario around your home or office with the included Nintendo GameCube style controller. Set-up some banana peels and turtle shells in your living room (not included) for true video game realism. Just watch out when you hit the turbo button right into a banana peel and Mario careens into your cat.

We are currently undergoing forum conversion from the SMF forums to PHPBB3. I want to thank everyone for their patience over the last few days. The new forums should have all the posts and users from the SMF ones.

While DX3R’s intelligently designed ergonomics are the first thing that catches the eye, it is the superior responsiveness of its advanced 2.4GHz DSM2 technology that will get people talking. In addition to unparalleled freedom and interference protection, DSM2 has a faster response time than any other spread spectrum or PPM system. With it, you will be able to hold the “line” around a track with a level of precision and control unlike anything you have experienced before. And because DSM2 uses direct sequence spread spectrum technology, you’ll maintain this superior response rate no matter how “noisy” the 2.4GHz environment gets.
