We’re pretty well in love with Element by now – the Thorium Keyboard is a stonkingly good bit of kit, and the Iridium Gaming Mouse is a no-brainer at under £23 from Ebuyer. And so with high expectations we come to their top-of-the-range gaming headset, the Xenon 700. With a design borrowed heavily from Razer’s...

Element Iridium 820 Gaming Mouse Review

Gaming Mice are a new creature for most parents. I mean – a mouse is a mouse, right? It has two clicky buttons, one left, one right, and allows you to control the computer with point-and-click awesomeness. Yuh. Wrong.

Introducing the UDOO Neo – Tech Stuff for Baffled Parents

As any geek parents will know, the original UDOO board was pretty amazing. It was the next logical step on from the fabulously ground-breaking Raspberry Pi, and combined the Pi with Arduino, letting you run the tiny computer as well as control electronic projects. Well, this year the people behind UDOO created a new kickstarter – the UDOO neo. It includes the Raspberry Pi and an Arduino board as before, but this time...
