Geeks are sometimes given the stereotype as being big spenders on gadgetry, from computers to video game systems. You, yourself, may be a spender. While some do always have to have the latest and greatest of anything electronic, not all geeks are frequently forking out the cash.
Now that most people living in the United States will be receiving a refund check from the government within the next month or so, a survey was done to see what people would be doing with the money. NPD Group conducted one such survey and even though “geeks” could easily go out and spend the $600 or $1200 on a new computer or a sleek TV, what they found is that people will actually be saving the money.
Maybe geeks won’t be spending because they already own the latest and greatest (haha) and nothing enticing has come out? Or maybe it’s because those who follow technology trends aren’t as big of spenders as everybody thought? Regardless, the bottom line from a PC Magazine article says that geeks are planing to save the money they receive from their tax rebate and not spend it.
If you’re getting a rebate check, what is it that you plan to do with the extra cash?

Topshop, the women’s clothing brand, intends to enlist the help of technology – virtual reality technology, to be exact, in order to deliver a greater “Wow!” factor to the masses who drop by their stores. In fact, virtual reality will be able to deliver the upcoming Topshop Unique fashion run show to interested shoppers without having them being there, thanks to a team effort with London-based Inition.

Comcast has agreed to take in Time Warner Cable in the latest corporate merger over in the U.S., where this agreement happens to be a friendly, stock-for-stock transaction. In this particular merger, Comcast will pick up every single bit of Time Warner Cable’s 284.9 million shares which amounts to roughly $45.2 billion where equity value is concerned, and each Time Warner Cable share will be exchanged for 2.875 shares of CMCSA, equal to Time Warner Cable shareholders who happen to own around 23% of Comcast’s common stock. This particular transaction is said to generate around $1.5 billion in operating efficiency, and it will also be tax free to Time Warner Cable shareholders. There is one major talking point about this particular transaction – it will hopefully manage to create a leading technology and innovation company, where it leverages on a national platform while offering ground-breaking products, creating operating efficiencies and economies of scale.
