Logitech C910 HD Pro Webcam Review
31.12.69
It's a marvel to think just how far webcams have evolved over the last twenty years. Back in 1991, it all began when geniuses at Cambridge University streamed a 128x128 representation of a
coffee pot in glorious grayscale - serious business, no doubt. Today webcams can
still be used to monitor coffee, of course, but they more frequently play a role in connecting families, friends, service members and business professionals all across the globe. And thanks to the High-Definition craze, we're just beginning to see webcams that can do it all in 1080p, well over 125x the resolution of the first CoffeCam and in super glorious 24-bit color.
One of the front-runners in this current generation of 1080p cameras is
Logitech C910 HD Pro Webcam , an impressive piece of kit that pushes the limits of USB 2.0, not to mention the limits of your internet connection. Dual microphones and Carl Zeiss glass optics with auto-focus add flavor to the mix, but is it all worth it?

Product Review - Gaggia Classic
31.12.69
If want to get into espresso you should take a hard look at the Gaggia Classic.
I've had this machine now for well over six months and feel like I can give a good take on what the strengths and weaknesses of this machine are, and in kind taste the best it can make.
I pretty much knew I wanted to get a Gaggia Classic after one evening when I went into Target and the krups machine they had there weighed maybe three pounds total, then I found myself in Peet's where they sell Gaggia machines and the portafilter was like 5lbs of chromed brass in my hand! It made a believer out of me and I have yet to look back!
So after that fateful night I found myself emptying a good portion of my tax return on a espresso machine (and of course a grinder but more on that later!). About a week later a beautiful machine shows up at my doorstep and I soon find out the good, the bad and the ugly of this machine.
The Good.
One of the things that strikes you when you pull this machine out of the box is just how heavy it is for such a little machine. The machine itself is about twenty five pounds and the size of12 cup coffee maker. It's so heavy because there is so much packed into this machine that is not there in the lowly Krups one at Target.
