Are You locked Out?

There are so many requests from users who visit TechLore.com asking how to unlock a V-chip or a parental lock on a TV set, game console, or other device. I'm sure you've been there; your son, daughter, husband, wife, etc. entered a code into the parental control setting and now can't remember, or you purchased something used that was locked with a code from a previous owner. Either way, now your device is locked down tight, and you need to guess the password in order to use your device.

Want to beta test some super secret DivX stuff?

Coffee Table Computer

There is a fundamental change occurring in the world of technology!
This video from Popular Mechanics shows a new type of computer. They say it could be available to the public soon as next year.

The idea is not that new, they have been working on this for a few years now. But it's getting closer and closer to becoming reality.

You will note that no key board is shown, but I am sure they must have some type of wireless keyboard connected.

If you could put this in you living room and have it also control your TV and audio system it would be pretty sweet!
