Black Hat 2022, Def Con 30 and the Return to Vegas
After a three-year absence from Hacker Summer Camp, I finally returned to Vegas. Two of those years were related to Covid of course. However, three years is a long time to be out of the environment and the craziness that is both Black Hat and Def Con. To say I was excited to return to Vegas and everything that both cons have to offer would be an understatement. Both cons have their place in what I do here at DecryptedTech, but it was more than just the articles and conversations about security that I enjoy, it is getting to catch up with people I only see during the con and also the prospect of meeting new people and developing new relationships.
Quakecon 2014 - The Good Within
In case you think it's all fun and games at Quakecon... it is. But it's not all about the games. The American Red Cross is on site this year for a blood drive of all things.
EA to launch 6 new projects at this year's E3
At the E3, which will be held between 10 and 12 June in Los Angeles, Electronic Arts will hold a major conference and introduce six new projects. The information has been confirmed as part of the quarterly financial report released earlier this week.
In Win Shows Their New Case Lineup at CES 2014
While many of the case manufacturers that we are all familiar with were absent from the showroom at CES this year, I did find my way to the display area for In Win Development. They have had some excellent chassis out in the past that I’d have the privilege of reviewing, and while it had been a couple of years I wanted to see what their lineup looked like now. I have to say I’m glad I did.
The Power and Flexibility of the PC Brought to the Masses: Project Christine from Razer.
I had the chance to talk with Keven Scarpati of Razer at CES 2014 and get a look at some of their upcoming gear. As usual, they have some very interesting things in the pipeline, but the top of the heap has got to be their newest take on the personal computer: Project Christine.
The Aorus X7 - A Gaming Laptop That I Actually Want
CES 2014: Las Vegas, Nevada - There are a lot of companies that call some of their lineup “gaming laptops”. Asus, Sony, Toshiba, MSI, they all have at least one laptop in their stable that they tell me I can use to game. While I’ll be the first to admit this is technically true, invariably their definition of “gaming” and mine have been different. Small screens, low resolution, terrible sound, poor performance (unless I turn down the graphics quality, which is a problem in its own), there are always tradeoffs that honestly have made me consider “gaming laptop” to be a contradiction.
Has CES lost its steam for the computer industry?
During the days leading up to CES 2014 there has been a lot of talk about how much the show has changed. Although tagged with the Consumer Electronics Show label the show is becoming dominated by items that, while loosely related, are not electronics at all. I am talking about entire pavilions filled with phone cases, battery packs, lanyards etc. These items are accessories to the products we buy, but in reality they have no real place a show like CES. This has led some to long for the days of COMDEX (Computer Dealer’s Exhibition).

Ladies, you've got to get to CES 2013!
If you're in the industry and you've never gone to CES, make 2013 your year. We ladies are under-represented in a big way. CEA does not report on gender demographics, but by my visual estimation I'd say ladies made up no more than 5% of exhibitors and attendees (no offense to them, but I'm not counting booth babes). What's happening here? Soap box aside, we are simply a bigger slice of the pie. And while I could well get lost in satisfying my curiosity about all the reasons why, that's not really the point. The point is, CES needs us and we need CES.
