Last week I became the proud owner of a set of Creative Aurvana In-Ear2 earphones which retail for £89.99. And these are the proverbial “bee’s knees” – oxygen-free copper cabling and gold plated connections. They are also really quite light and compact. Now, I’m not the kind of person who gets excited about , but [...]

As a fully certified geek then I am, naturally, a fan of Star Wars and Star Trek. Both. And I particularly love the music. Now, most people generally agree that Wrath of Khan is the best Trek film.

Saw this at my local Showcase last night. Wow. Great film.  I can see why Empire gave it the review that they did . There was more of the monster than I expected (and a surprise from that too) but less of introduction, ending, etc. There is no title music, or even titles. It’s represented as US evidence of what [...]
