30 Rock Season 1
MSRP: $49.98
Website: www.nbc.com/30_Rock
With the writers' strike still raging on, it's getting harder and harder to find quality television shows to watch. This is why it's the perfect time to crack open some DVD box sets of shows like 30 Rock. Brilliantly written and featuring an awesome ensemble cast, the show is proof that network television doesn't suck as much as everyone says it does. Seriously, why bother watching another dumb reality show when you can watch 30 Rock instead?
Dust-Off Keyboard Quiver
MSRP: $69.99 Website: www.dust-off.com
Here's a niche product that's perfect for the hardcore PC gamer in your life: the Dust-Off Keyboard Quiver is sort of like a customized backpack/tote for gaming keyboards. Why would anyone need such a thing, you ask? Well, for a certain breed of hardcore PC gamers, traveling with their keyboards is like a musician traveling with their instruments. And the idea of going to a LAN party (it's like a regular party except people just gather around and play computer games) and using someone else's keyboard would be like you going over to someone's house and using someone else's toothbrush. Yes, we know it's pretty nerdy to own a specialized backpack just for carrying around a gaming keyboard but trust us: if you have someone in your life that's way into PC games, this might be exactly the sort of thing they'd want.
Logitech AudioHub
MSRP: $99.99
Website: www.logitech.com
Laptops are getting more and more powerful these days. They're packing the latest processors, powerful graphics hardware and big huge screens; it's just too bad that laptop speakers continue to sound like two tin cans. What's the point of having an awesome laptop if your music, games and movies sound crappy? Sure, you could use headphones but we don't want to have to do that everytime we watch a Youtube clip or listen to an MP3. That's why we were excited when Logitech sent us their new AudioHub. This 2.1 sound bar slips right behind our laptop and pumps out some awesome audio. It's sleek, compact and best of all, the sound quality is great, perfect for listening to the new Shins album or watching another episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
Turtle Beach Ear Force X3
MSRP: $100
Website: www.turtle-beach.com
With a name like Turtle Beach Ear Force, you can expect one of two things: Either a mid-nineties Saturday morning cartoon, or a fine gaming headset line. The Turtle Beach Ear Force X3 is the latest Xbox 360-available headset-headphone combo that is the answer to your aural dreams. With sweet wireless stereo sound and a top-notch headset (when wired to your controller), the $100 Turtle Beach Ear Force X3 is probably the best thing to have attached to your head while playing videogames.
