And We’re Back!
Sorry for the extended downtime folks, getting the old reviews into the new format on the site was proving troublesome (and time consuming) so i’ve decided for the time being to open the site back up whilst still transferring over the reviews so they will re-appear in due course (you’ll see a lovely little side bar when they’re back).
Aside from the new look there’s not really much changed, however the new design does allow us to do some nicer laid out reviews so keep an eye out for new reviews popping up shortly.
Now the site is back online … Read More…

Barry had a little lamb – new addition to the CNS stable
There’s been a reason why you have been stuck with me, Andrew, for what seems like an eternity now and that’s because Barry only went and conducted a field test too see if his sperms had been damaged by deadly radiation.
Lots of things happened that many of you won’t understand and now he has a son called Jason. Mother & child are doing fine. I would say the father is too, but you know, it’s Barry!
Word is that the infant will be introduced to the concept of m+kb from an early stage and the stereotypical rattle will … Read More…
‘Games will eclipse other media’ says Activision CEO
During a keynote speech at the CES, Activision Publishing head honcho Mike Griffith boldly claimed that computer games are set to eclipse all other forms of entertainment.
As per usual, the figures quoted are fairly meaningless, effectively comparing apples to oranges, but Griffith proceeded to compare the still-blossoming video games market to the huge century-old monolithic music and movie industries, both of which are struggling to let go of archaic distribution methods.… Read More…
CNS List-o-tron-o-matic – Our Best Of 2008

Because we’re having a slow news time, what with there being a typical post-christmas lull, a global recession and nothing but a load of announcements & promises in the form of press releases (coupled with the fact we forgot to do it in 2008), here’s the CNS Best of 2008… Read More…

Merry Christmas to you all
Merry Christmas to all readers of Computers N Stuff.
I’d like to personally thank you all for coming here and checking us out all year, and making this our most successful year in terms of hits.
I’d also like to personally thank Andrew for his much much appreciated help in the past couple of months, as without it, i’d have had to shut the site down.
I’d also like to thank all the PR peeps who’ve helped me along, by sending code or just answering my questions.
I Hope you all have a great Christmas, and a brilliant New Year. … Read More…
Apologies for the downtime…
We had a bit of downtime earlier today due to a few files becoming corrupt, unfortunately it’s meant that we’ve lost most of todays data as the latest backup we had was from this morning.
Normal Service will be resumed tomorrow.… Read More…
Welcome to the New Computers N Stuff
Well, if you’re reading this then everything has gone all right and we’ve relaunched Computers N Stuff again!
We’ve opted to go for a blog format this time, as it’ll be easier for us to update, and for you to find what you are looking for. We’re still making some cosmetic changes so please bear with us while we sort these few niggles out.
We’ve got some reviews coming up online shortly and we’ll be back to normal service in no time!… Read More…
