Good news to PC gamers, Rockstar is going to release the PC version of GTA IV on the 18th November in North America and November 21st in Europe, bringing all of the rich, immersive narrative experience found in the console versions, along with newly expanded multiplayer just for PC. For San Andreas, I need to tune down all the graphic setting, for GTA IV, I think I need to break my piggy bank for a better graphics card.

Kingston has released their new DataTraveler Mini Slim flash drive. Measuring 1.5 inch x 0.6 inch x 0.25 inch, known as the world’s smallest USB drive today. It is available in black, blue or pink and priced at £4.60 (2GB) and £7.90 (4GB). Getting smaller and smaller day by day, I think soon we’ll have a pendrive at the size of the USB connector and that time we will have the problem of taking it out from the port.
