This has nothing to do with geeky technology, but man, this stuff rocks. If you are getting bored of your leading brand shampoo, definitely pick up some Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special Shampoo from your local barber. This stuff gives your scalp a tingling, stimulating, energizing clean feeling.

Build your own Isolation Chamber

Home Theater

Acoustiblok has created a 1/8" thick Sound Isolation/Blocking Material that's perfect for isolating a home theater. It's made from highly compressed vinyl and is very heavy... about 1.1lb per square foot, this dense material can reduce sound transmission by as much as 30db (depending on the frequencies). This material can also be used for quieting noisy drain pipes. If you are currently building a home theater, I highly recommend looking into vinyl sound barriers.

The unofficial apple weblog has posted what seems to be a rumor about an Aluminum clad cinema display.

” Apple HD displays wrapped in aluminum frames have been widely rumored since the fall, and their failure to appear has lead to some disappointment among consumers. The most recent rumors suggest an introduction alongside revised Power Macs in the coming weeks, with sizes ranging up to 30-inches.”

I'm pretty new to this whole blogging stuff, I hope you like the new look and feel of mavromatic. The first version was a direct rip-off of engadget... they were my inspiration to start this site and felt that I probably shouldn't copy their site design exactly. Enjoy.

Casio's Xfer Splash Proof Wi-Fi TV is the of the first bathroom friendly gizmos. It lets you watch TV in your tub wirelessly on a 8" LCD screen. The Xfer's base unit attaches to any video source, such as a DVD player, TV, or VCR, and wirelessly transmits video to an 8-inch LCD. The Xfer is Splash Proof but not waterproof, so it can't be used as a entertaining floatation device. Oh, I should also mention that it's currently only available in Japan... but for a mere $1498, the xFer can be bought from Japan Direct.
