Opinion: The disgusting state of DRM

DRM, or Digital Rights Management, has, whether we like it or not, become part of pretty much every day for people involved in any way, shape or form with technology.  In its most basic form it has existed for almost 30 years ranging from the minor nuisances of looking up codes in a manual or inserting a disc, to the modern internet-enabled monster we've all come to hate.




But it's while, of all things, trying to watch a new movie that I find myself almost disgusted with myself that I actually paid for something.

Quick Review: Logitech Wireless Trackball M570

The following is a "quick review" of the Logitech Wireless Trackball M570.  Why quick?  Because it's not a day-to-day piece of hardware for me - I'm expecting to use it maybe once a week and, as such, I won't be putting in the time necessary to do a thorough review without potentially skewing the results from forced usage.

QUICK(ER) SUMMARY

A cordless, 5-button trackball with a scroll wheel.  One of Logitech's family of "Unifying Receiver" peripherals.
