RIM’s new BlackBerry name and stock market ticker symbol take effect February 4th
For years, if you wanted to make an investment in the stock market on the company that made BlackBerry phones, you needed to buy the shares of Research In Motion, which went by the ticker symbol RIMM on NASDAQ. But amid all of the hoopla of the new BlackBerry 10 OS, and the new BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10 handsets, the company has dropped the old name and will be known as BlackBerry. But this will not start until Monday, February 4th. Starting this coming Monday, those who look up stock quotes in the paper will find BlackBerry under "B," no longer under "R". If you're watching CNBC or even watching the ticker on your Apple iPhone, the new symbol is BBRY. And don't think that only stock traders or companies that print checks and business cards are affected.

Graphics Card Price Wars: How to Score a Card (If You Must)
PC-gaming enthusiasts have been feeling the effects of the cryptocurrency boom (the latest boom, mind you) for some time now, with graphics-card availability low and card prices for most midrange and high-end cards way over original MSRPs. In addition to being a general annoyance (who wants to work this hard to buy a single component?), it's putting a gigantic damper on the DIY approach to building or upgrading a gaming PC. But if you're determined and ready to put in some work, we have a few strategies you can deploy to track down a powerful graphics card, if you really need one, without spending an outrageous sum. You have essentially a handful of options. You might snag a "parts bundle" deal and sell off the components you don't need, keeping only the graphics card. You can buy a complete, pre-built system from a custom shop or an OEM such as Dell or HP, and skip the DIY process altogether.
