Mini Arcade Machine

arcade_cabinet.png

Master modder Marcelo Souza of São Paulo, Brazil has built one cool tabletop arcade machine emulator. This isn’t your average mame cabinet. Marco has added custom optical sensors to catch coin inserts and built the unit off of a Arduino board. Check out the video of the unit in action.

If you know how to read Portuguese you can head on over to Marco’s site and read up on how he built it. Looks like Marco will also be selling kits for those of you who might want to build your own!

No criminal charges in Pennsylvania MacBook spying probe

The Associated Press is reporting that a federal investigation into the possible misuse of webcams on Apple laptops did not find criminal intent.

The investigation was at a suburban Philadelphia school district that used special software that wound up covertly snapping images of students who were at home with their school provided MacBooks.

The FBI opened the investigation to see if there were violations of federal wiretap statutes or privacy invasions. The school has said the security software had been purchased to track laptops that had been reported stolen, but one student, Blake Robbins, claimed he had been photographed more than 400 times during a two week period on a laptop that had not been reported to be stolen.

The dropping of the federal probe does not have any bearing on a civil lawsuit against the Lower Merion School District. Another student has also joined that legal action.

The school district issued 2,300 MacBook computers and installed software from LanRev to track stolen laptops. Parents and students were not notified the software was on the laptops. The civil suits allege that students’ text messages were intercepted, and they were photographed while sleeping or only partially dressed. The school has since deactivated the anti-theft software.

Found Footage: Sony attacks iPhone gaming in new PSP ad

Well, when you get big enough, there’s a target painted on your back. Sony has gone after the iPhone and the App Store in a new ad for their PSP gaming system. As you can see above, the ad comes from the “Marcus PSP” series (starring 30 Rock’s hilarious Bobb’e J. Thompson as an advice-giving kid), and calls out iPhone gamers for not playing “big boy games.” The ad then shows games like Twisted Metal: Head-On and Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee, bragging that they are all available for $9.99 (though the small text confirms that they are $9.99 each, not together).

Very interesting. Truth be told, the ad is kind of weak — it doesn’t tell you to not own an iPhone, just that phones are better meant for texting and calling. But the biggest attack point here is that iPhone game developers are amateurs compared to Sony’s stable, with a Doodle-esque “Game Castle” going up against high profile franchises. Nintendo has pretty much ignored iPhone gaming in the past, admitting that Apple is an eventual enemy, but generally staying unconcerned about the App Store, even as its share of handheld gaming grows. But this is the first time a competitor has publicly acknowledged the competition to consumers, and given Sony’s rough history with the PSP lately, it looks a lot like a guppy trying to bite a shark.

Kindle, iPad, and paper examined microscopically

The above image is a picture of the iPad’s screen, multiplied by 24 times over. Keith Peters at Bit-101 used his new USB microscope to examine a few different e-reader displays up really close, and the results are definitely a fun read. The iPad doesn’t do too well, actually — I think the Kindle looks much cleaner, although there’s some debate about that in the comments, so each to his own. At any rate, it’s cool to see how these displays “work” — the actual pixels going into the picture that our eyes just collate into full text. The 400x newspaper, book, and magazine closeups are very interesting as well. With all of the digital display talk going around, you tend to forget what those displays are actually trying to recreate, which is really very organic smears on a thin fabric.

Unfortunately, Keith didn’t get his hands on the Retina Display, and you’d assume that’s a game changer. With four times the pixels seen in the image above, the iPhone 4‘s display probably gives the Kindle a nice challenge, and might even start competing with the actual paper printing. Still, until that display makes its way to the tablet, this is the best we’ve got for now.

Power your iPad from underpowered USB ports

The new iXP1-500 Dongle claims to eliminate the “Not charging” issue that some iPad owners experience when connecting to older machines. We haven’t tested one, but our initial instinct is dubious at best.

Shortly after the iPad was released in the US, users noticed a “charging issue.” Specifically, the iPad would report “Not charging” when connected to an older MacBook Pro, Macbook, iMac or non-Apple machine. We later confirmed that the iPad actually does charge in that scenario, just very slowly.

Honestly, we’re skeptical about this thing. Click below to find out why.
