My wife Ponzi was supposed to do this product review. She’s the one who wanted one of these video visor things. It’s been on her wish list for a few years now. I ended up getting one for her as a Christmas present last year, and she hated it. It was uncomfortable and the quality was bad. I was lucky enough to make the right connection to be able to review this Video Visor from Headplay. The best news of all is that if you use that link, and coupon code HP5OFF, you can save 5% on your purchase of one!

Your HEADPLAY Personal Cinema System is a portable visual headset and multi-media center delivering a comfortable, immersive, high-resolution, cinematic viewing experience for gaming, movie watching and Internet use.
It is versatile, convenient and gives you the feeling of being in your own private theater. It is also compatible with most media devices.
With content availability, the HEADPLAY Personal Cinema System delivers a breakthrough in personal entertainment enjoyment – next generation stereoscopic 3D gaming and movie viewing.

Ponzi said that she felt this headset is very comfortable, the quality is very good.. and she likes the options for expandability. That to me says it all. I can look at any piece of hardware, and pass judgement. But the bar is set so high with Ponzi, it’s not easy to make her happy. So for her to give her praise to this product says a lot. The features and specs are as follows:

Field of View: 36 degree diagonal
Virtual Image Size: 52″ diagonal at 6′
Display Technology LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon)
LCoS Refresh Rate: Up to 120 Hz
Color Depth: 8 bits RGB
Resolution: Supports 1024 x 768 VGA, 800 x 600 VGA, 720 x 480 VGA, and 640 x 480 VGA
Video Output: Progressive Scan 800 x 600 native
Resolution: 360 color fields per second
Video Input: S-Video/Composite
Audio Input: Stereo
Audio Output: Stereo headphone jack
Built-in 3D video playback support
Supports 16 million colors
Automatic PC resolution configure

All in all, this may be expensive, but it’s well worth the money. It has excellent quality, and is so lightweight and convenient.

VMware and Parallels for Virtual Machines

chris@lockergnome.com (Chris Pirillo) — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 06:30:00 GMT

It doesn't matter if you're running on Windows or Mac OS X - every power user needs either Parallels or VMware (or both). There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer. Plus, there's no easier way to try new Linux distributions - see what all the fuss is about. Run Windows in OS X, run Linux in Windows, but the best way to do either is with VMware and/or Parallels.
