News broke on the 26th of a WD Green drive that boasted a healthy 2 terabytes of storage space. For those people stateside the drive appeared a day later. The drive is the largest single drive hard drive available anywhere, and kept pace with Samsung’s and Seagate’s largest competing drives. Drive index speed outpaced several other drives including competitor’s 1TB and 320GB drives. Access time was a little slower than others, but still up to par considering this drive is designed with lower power consumption in mind.

Don’t feel ashamed if you find yourself scratching your head wondering what you could possibly need all that space for, personally I’m stil trying to figure out how to fill a 500GB drive

Just want to take the time to wish everyone a happy holidays and to thank everyone in the Scenario Elite community for sticking around to see another year out. Even though our focus has changed dramatically over the years, I truly believe its has been the friendships and the continual support through out the community that has kept us together. I hope our community will see many more years out and to come to know many more new unique people. As of the Podcast, if you already haven’t noticed, I’ve taken a small break for the holidays and plan to pick up right after, we ring in the new year. As of my podcasting team, thanks a million for taking the time out of your busy lives to help me out in creating a podcast, that will hopefully reach a larger audience as we learn the tricks of the trade and fine tune what we have. Once again have a safe and happy holidays!

While flipping through channels I see the strangest commercial.  It seems as if there is a “portal” that leads between I think it was North Korea and Japan.  Anyways, I thought wow this looks awesome.  It turns out that it was something called Telepresence by Cisco.  This technology can be used for fun like in this youtube video or it can be very practical, like saving money on plane trips for business meetings by simply having telepresence in multiple offices.  One of the features that makes this stand-out more than just a simple videoconference with webcams is that this is displayed using 1080p HD screens, making it seem like the person is right there in front of you.
