View in browser Review: Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Touch In terms of price, performance, and overall usability, the Dell Latitude 6430U is a better buy. But for ThinkPad fans, the X1 is the best product on the market. Indeed, any executive who is tired of feeling outclassed by the MacBook Air across the boardroom table can rest easy with the X1. The laptop is gorgeous and powerful as well. And given Lenovo's focus on corporate customers, you may even be able to get IT to buy one for you. Share This:     ADVERTISEMENT How to Catch a (Beer) Thief Life here at Ziff Davis is pretty good. We get to test cool products, write our opinions about them, and after a long day at work, we can even crack a cold one from the company's beer fridge before we head home. Recently, however, we suspected the fridge was being raided by non-employees. How could we know for sure? Where there's a will, a wireless connection, and a remotely activated camera--there's a way. Share This: The New Xbox One 180: What We Lost and Why It Matters Personally, I believe Microsoft lost nothing in its latest reversal. The Xbox One will not come with a requirement to connect to the Internet every 24 hours and you will be able to play used games without any additional cost. This placates gamers, although no doubt plenty still think the price is too high. Even so, there is a real case to be made that this move, as popular as it is, hurts gamers. Geek.com's Russell Holly argues it here. Share This: John McAfee Returns With Bizarre, NSFW Video Hollywood has Charlie Sheen, the tech industry has John McAfee. Fresh from the jungles of Central America, McAfee has taken to YouTube to record a how-to video of sorts. The fact that he is explaining, vaguely, how to uninstall McAfee Antivirus is just part of what is wrong with this video. It gets worse. And be warned, it is NSFW.
