Today's Story Highlights

Gadget Ogling: Baring Souls, Soaking Up Sound, and Tracking Babes
As time advances, more responsibilities seep into our lives. We get
wrapped up in our own worlds, and don't necessarily make enough time to
spend with the friends and family members who've been important parts of
our worlds for decades. Concepter's Soul time tracker seeks to make us
more conscious of the time we spend with those who matter most to us.

Microsoft Prods Skylake Users to Take the Windows 10 Plunge
Microsoft last week announced that within the next 18 months, it will
end support for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 on machines equipped with
Intel's 6th generation Core processors, also known as "Skylake." As of
mid-July next year, Windows 10 will be the only supported Windows
platform on Skylake systems, and only the most critical security fixes
will be released for earlier versions of Windows.

Deepin Takes Linux to New Depths
The latest release of the Linux distro now called "Depth OS" deserves
serious consideration. It is fast, reliable and innovative, with an
impressive homegrown desktop design dubbed "Deepin Desktop Environment."
Depth OS has a bit of an identity problem. The open source community
that developed the distro seems to have a difficult time deciding what
to call it.

Pokken Tournament to Kick Off in March
Nintendo last week announced that "Pokkén Tournament" will be available
worldwide for Wii U on March 18. The Pokémon-themed fighting game,
developed by Bandai Namco and published by Nintendo, will retail for
$60. For the first production run, Nintendo is tossing in a Shadow
Mewtwo amiibo card. When used with a Wii U gamepad, the amiibo card will
unlock Shadow Mewtwo as a playable character.

What the PC Industry Could Learn From the NRA
One of the fascinating things about the NRA is that buyers of guns think
the organization represents them, when in fact its mission is to
represent gun sellers -- not gun buyers -- and certainly never gun
buyers against gun sellers. Guns for consumers largely have been banned
in most of the world, with the exception of the U.S., which uniquely has
the NRA.
