<title><![CDATA[Sony Responds to 'Sacred Cow-Slaying' Report ]]></title>
<pubdate>Mon, 05 Jan 2009 18:01:00 CST</pubdate>
<description><![CDATA[Sony has responded to an earlier report that claimed the company was on the &#147;brink of upheaval.&#148; A spokesman for the company said that Sony has no plans to announce any additional restructuring beyond the 16,000 layoffs announced in December. Thanks to Shacknews for the report and headline of the day.  <br />
<br />
The statement comes in response to a recent report by Times Online, which said Sony was "on brink of upheaval" and that employees were preparing for a "a series of 'sacred cow-slaying' measures" that would see major divisions and factories closed. <br />

<title><![CDATA[Blu-ray Dominates Christmas Sales in UK]]></title>
<pubdate>Mon, 05 Jan 2009 18:01:00 CST</pubdate>
<description><![CDATA[Blu-ray sales in the UK are up 400&#37; this holiday season compared to the previous year. Now, before you go giving all the credit to record sales of The Dark Knight, it seems people are also buying non-special effects driven movies on Blu-ray too. Sales figures for the U.S have not been released yet.  <br />
<br />
Across the whole holiday season 3.7 million Blu-ray units were sold in Britain, and that doesn't include sales of Sony's Playstation 3 console, which also plays Blu-ray movies. A large contributing factor to the rise in Blu-ray sales was the release of the movies The Dark Knight and Mama Mia on Blu-ray. The Dark Knight sold almost 300,000 copies in its first few weeks, becoming the fastest selling Blu-ray title to date. Mama Mia was no slouch either selling 5.1 million copies by year-end. <br />

<title><![CDATA[EVGA X58 3X SLI Motherboard]]></title>
<pubdate>Mon, 05 Jan 2009 16:01:00 CST</pubdate>
<description><![CDATA[I feel it is my duty to warn you ahead of time that reading our evaluation of the EVGA X58 3X SLI motherboard will give you an uncontrollable urge to take the 3x SLI plunge. This has been a public service announcement from the staff at [H]ard|OCP. Consider yourself warned.  <br />
<br />
EVGA has built a very good X58 motherboard that most computer hardware enthusiasts are going to be very happy with. Performance and stability are solid. It should easily get any Intel Core i7 920 to 3.6GHz or better which is going to push your gaming into being GPU limited very quickly. EVGA continues to bring its customers the best support and service in the motherboard business which to some is worth more than the cost of the board. <br />

In a "tweet" that has since been deleted, Sanchez's account displayed the message "i am high on crack right now might not be coming into work today"--and we're pretty sure that did not come from Sanchez himself. He has now posted a response tweet explaining that his account was hacked.<br />

<description><![CDATA[The NY Times takes a hard look at the year ahead for Blu-ray. The article touches on the pros and cons of the format but the overall tone seems to be &#147;wait and see.&#148;<br />
