How To Deploy a Game Console In the Office?

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

SkydiverFL writes “Does anyone have an idea for a good solution for using a game console (Xbox 360, PS3, etc.) with a laptop and / or external monitor? I am planning to set up each of my developers at the office with a shiny new Xbox 360, surround headphones, and Gold memberships. The only catch is that I have to do it ‘gracefully.’ I would be grateful for any input on the technical setup and politics (how to get it in and how to work through the politics).”Read on for further details on the situation.SkydiverFL continues, “Long story short, I am the MIS Manager / Lead Architect for a blue collar non-tech company. My team needs to be happy, but the folks in the rest of the office do not really understand what that means for the types of personalities that exist in our department. Even though my team is tucked away in a different part of the building, we do have clients and employees come back here from time to time. I cannot set a monitor on their desk. The console can be here, but it needs to be not so ‘in your face.’ Each developer currently has a maxed out Dell Latitude D830 laptop, docking station, and a wide screen 20″ LCD. The LCD has a dual-input configuration — one for SVGA and one for DVI. The DVI port is in use by the laptop. It would be preferable not to feed the console directly into the monitor. We have employee monitoring software in use and need to track the usage of the console. So, it seems best to use a capture card along with some type of viewer utility. This would allow us to have a record of when and how long the console was used, in case anyone else in management ever has a problem.

Great Ways to Enhance Your World of Warcraft Experience

Saturday, August 15th, 2009

Article Source: www.associatedcontent.com.The WorldWarcraft MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) is one of a kind. There is no other game like it on the market. It’s sales have made history, exceeding any other online game of it’s kind, and for good reason. I was once a WorldWarcraft player of two and a half years. WorldWarcraft is extremely addicting and to be honest, it ruins lives.

World of Warcraft can also be very, very expensive. The in-game currency is gold, silver, and copper. One gold piece is 100 silver pieces; and one silver piece is 100 copper pieces. There is actually a black market of sorts that is based around selling massive amounts of this gold currency used in the WorldWarcraft to players all around the globe. In the game, the players refer to these people as “gold farmers”.

The gold farmers of WorldWarcraft are usually people employed in foreign countries, those outside of the United States. They work in literal sweatshops filled with computers with WorldWarcraft installed on them, and rotate in 24-hour shifts to farm gold so that they can sell it over the Internet. The leaders of these online gold farming sweatshop rings are usually business men of some standard, hiring people that will work for a dime who are so addicted to the game to work tediously to farm gold which players then purchase and receive through in-game transactions.
