Pentax Eyepieces - Observatory Quality

Back awhile ago I did a review on plossl eyepieces. In that article I was trying to reach for the average individual looking for a high quality eyepiece on a limited budget. This time I asked for an example of observatory quality eyepieces that I know some of our readers own and enjoy. Is there a difference between how a very expensive eyepiece behaves in average equipment as opposed to an average eyepiece? Is there a difference in how it behaves in observatory class equipment? Step inside and let's take a look…

Are Third-Party Wii Games Finally Coming Into Their Own?

Gravy Monkey writes "It's not too difficult to criticize the quality of many third-party Wii games — whether they're unique titles, bad licenses or lazy ports to the new system. However, will this change as more quality third-party games appear on the Wii? Recently, Wiiware title 'Lost Winds' picked up some great reviews, as did the Blastworks game. The recent review of a new game called Order Up on IGN caught my attention because they praised it as the way all casual games should be made. Is this the beginning of a new era for Wii games where quality casual games from third parties manage to grab the attention of both mainstream and hardcore gamers alike, instead of being a console where only first-party titles sell?"

Lost In Blue 3 Original Soundtrack

In the realm of writing music for the Nintendo DS, the hardware can present various challenges to composers working on the platform. As a result, music made for the DS can vary in its quality, depending heavily on both the skill of the composer, as well as the quality of the instrument sounds used to create the music. Fortunately in Stephen Geering's case, both of these were very much well executed in his soundtrack for Konami's Lost In Blue 3. This particular soundtrack can be enjoyed within the game itself, of course, but Konami has also made the music available for purchase on the iTunes Music Store, priced at $9.99, with individual tracks at $.99 a piece. This review of the soundtrack is going to be focused on the iTunes distributed version, which features great quality, but may be a case where the whole is worth more than each part m

Best Way To Distribute Video Online?

CHAMELEON_D_H writes "For some time, now I've been working on a short, geek/nerd oriented, animation. It's nearing completion, and I'm starting to look for a method to share it with the anyone willing to spare a minute. There are dozens of video sharing and streaming sites out there, making my choice very difficult to make. Looking for the best possible video and audio quality, while still having vast OS and browser compatibility leaves me dumbfounded. Having a download link would be a great bonus. Youtube is the default and most common choice, but has mediocre video quality and resolution. DivX Web Player has astounding quality, but requires users to download DivX's plugin and forces me to find hosting or purchase more bandwidth, as they no longer serve videos via stage6.

iTunes 8.0.1 audio quality improved, but not fully fixed

With the iTunes 8 upgrade many users complained of audio quality problems (previous article), in which tracks would sound fuzzy and "muddy" as if there was some gain problem in the processing that was generating clipping in audio playback. This was very apparent in songs that either had high-gain or were otherwise very "full" sounding, but also was apparent in more milder tunes. This persisted despite users' efforts to change the equalizer preamp settings as well as turning off other audio enhancement features to compensate for the problem. Currently the muddiness of the audio has been greatly reduced, but it does still exist for some tracks.
