A close friend recently had a defibrillator successfully placed in his chest. I was surprised when he explained how the doctors had him under light sedation where he didn’t feel pain, but could hear the doctors converse during the four-hour surgery.

What Does the Launch of the GeForce RTX 20 Series Mean for the Future?
Like many of you, I was glued to my computer screen this morning during NVIDIA’s live-stream of the GeForce RTX 20 series launch. But what exactly was shown today, and what does it mean for the future of gaming, virtual reality, and other GPU-based applications?
Exactly What I Need
Last week my daughter got pulled over by a policewoman just after midnight for having a light out over the back license plate. After a short reminder that she shouldn’t be driving past midnight because she’s not 18-years old yet, the policewoman let her off without a citation or warning if she promised to replace the light.

The Nordstrom Way
I recently finished reading the book, The Nordstrom Way to Customer Experience Excellence: Creating a Values-Driven Service Culture. The book is a lot more compelling than that ridiculously long title. It includes a lot of inspirational stories, but I wanted to share one story with you along with the one rule found in the employee handbook.

“I don’t know where to begin.”
That’s what I told Beth, who was working the counter at my local auto parts store.
I sheepishly placed a sleek can refrigerant on the counter and began to explain my predicament. I purchased a refill because I already owned a pressure gauge, I assumed it was compatible with any can. I found out that isn’t the case when I tightened the gauge and heard the stem pop.
How to Use Cinebench to Predict Cinema 4D Performance
Here at Puget Systems, it is our goal to perform realistic testing on the software packages we tailor our workstations toward. Sometimes this is easy, sometimes it is harder… and sometimes a software maker already provides their own benchmark tool. That is the case with Maxon, makers of Cinema 4D, as well as the free benchmark, took Cinebench. To determine whether we should use it, though, we have to ask some questions. Is Cinebench really a good benchmark for Cinema 4D? How do the tests it runs relate to real-world performance?
The Storm That Is Fortnite
It’s been a few years since a game caught the interest of my family.
I worked in sales at Puget Systems when I began hearing customers mention a game called Minecraft. The simple, blocky nature of the game carried over to the hardware requirements. Minecraft didn’t require a high-end gaming rig. My three oldest couldn’t get enough of building homes, trying to stay alive and setting anything they could find on fire with lava.
