Some say, I have no clue what I'm doing. Yet others say, that I still don't know what I'm doing. All I know is...that I'm a news writer for Hot Hardware! I've traveled through space and time, come from a galaxy far, far away, yet my mission is to boldly go where no one has gone before. 

If you hated that smorgasbord of TV shows, then you might not want to follow me on Twitter, Google+, and Facebook
