Following on from GNC's review of the MiniStation Air earlier this month, Buffalo have a launched the MiniStation Thunderbolt SSD. As you might guess from the name, it's a portable SSD with a Thunderbolt connection so it's ideal for connecting up with Apple Macs. Combining the SSD with Thunderbolt, the MiniStation has a read performance of more than 370 MB/s
PlayOn has been around for several years now, but for most people it has remained on the edge. However, the app has managed to become more prominent and insinuate itself into more places.

The National Media Museum in Bradford, England, is offering a range of Space Invader-themed novelty items that would make great stocking fillers for old

I have since deactivated my Facebook account, for good, and have no intention of returning.
