December 13, 2011 By Jonas Allen Leave a Comment

Many moons ago, Star Trek: The Original Series was remastered and released on Blu-ray Disc to mixed reviews, although the only debate on my end when I reviewed Season One was whether to give it a 9.5 or 10. In 2012, CBS Home Entertainment will start releasing remastered versions of Star Trek: The Next Generation on Blu-ray Disc, and I've got to admit, I can't wait. Things kick off on January 31, when Star Trek: The Next Generation – The Next Level ships to retail as a sort of "teaser" of things to come. The complete first season of Star …

August 22, 2011 By Jonas Allen Leave a Comment

The great thing about modern electronics is that they all connect to one another. Unfortunately, that’s also the bad thing about modern electronics, at least if you have to worry about cord control and limited inputs.
