Title: CES 2013
Post by: Rico on January 08, 2013, 08:37:42 AM
So, anyone paying attention to the CES coverage yet?  Some things are starting to come out.  Interesting that no Microsoft but I guess they do their own thing like Apple.  Here's a nice round up of things to watch:

Nvidia's Shield project is certainly interesting, but a lack of a price makes it difficult to say whether it'll be a hit or not. Valve's PC box (which may or may not be the Steam box, I'm getting conflicting rumors on it right now) looks interesting as well but we lack prices and specs to say much. So I'm paying some attention to it.

It's the first year that Microsoft are not attending although Steve Ballmer managed to hijack somebody else's presentation to talk about windows 8 and RT lol.

I'm avoiding it a bit this year although my twitter feed is getting a bit of a hammering!

Wow, reading about Qualcomm's keynote. Apparently it was...interesting?
