Black Friday Begins: Walmart 1
Good morning brave souls! Today I am on a quest for good deals and I am going to take you on the Journey! First stop is the bastion of cheap: Walmart! It was quite busy inside with a incredible line for laptops and desktops. I didn’t think Walmart’s deals were all that great today. My [...]

(Fake) iPhone clamshell coming soon
Meet the “iPhone” V126. It’s not the real deal though you may be fooled if you were to give it a quick glance. The outside case sports an Apple logo illuminated from behind by several tiny LED.
