Pre-orders are a go on Razer Onza 'professional' controllers



Razer has been showing off their Onza Xbox 360 controllers for a while now at various shows. But they've been hush on giving out release date or pricing information. Until now that is. They've now opened up pre-orders for the controller, and they've also unveiled that there will actually be two versions of the controller, the standard Onza, and an Onza Tournament Edition ($39.99 and $49.99 respectively). Both controllers offer an improved d-pad, two programmable shoulder buttons and "Hyperesponse" face buttons. White the T.E. adds adjustable resistance analog sticks, backlit buttons, a rubberized finish and a braided cable (both controllers are wired).

At E3 2010 the Techphules editors had the opportunity to play some rounds of Modern Warfare 2 on what is now being called the Onza Tournament Edition. We came away very impressed with the controller, and I have to say the adjustable resistance on the analog sticks had to be my favorite feature.

From the looks of the pre-order page it looks like estimated shipping dates are around the end of February for the Onza, but the T.E. is already sold out with no dates announced as of yet.

It's naht ah toomah...Oh wait, yes it is...



Artist Mio I-zawa is showing off his newest creation. It's a fleshy looking computer peripheral made to resemble a tumor. As your computer runs it quivers and pulsates, and grows in size as your computer works harder. The size of the tumor fluctuates using motors and pneumatic actuators as your CPU utilization goes up and down.



Yuck. While I guess it's not as 'artistic', I think I'll stick to SpeedFan for my system monitoring.
