About: Gents… my name is Dusty. To date, I have been resident amongst the masses of Gear Patrol devotees. Now, I have received a different calling. My charge is to shrug off the casual and carefree life of one who solely reads; I am to eschew the selfish pleasures man-info consumption, and to, instead, contribute mighty works of journalistic prowess suitable for the enlightenment of the Gear Patrol audience.
I’m sure that we would all agree that Gear Patrol shines as a bright beacon in the world of Men’s Lifestyle and Leisure. With numerous other sites and magazines vying for your attention, you read Gear Patrol because it cuts through the worthless flotsam and jetsam the other sites and blogs rehash day in and day out, bringing you a unique perspective on the latest gizmos and whatnots that matter to you. Well, it just so happens that I majored in gizmos and minored in whatnots.
Hopefully, my background and experiences will allow me to deliver piping-hot and tasty content direct to you from my areas of expertise. I was schooled in the beautiful Southeastern U.S. of A. There I spent only a modicum of time in actual class; instead wisely opting to hone other skills such as video game dominance (Ed: Dusty’s GoldenEye skills were unparalleled - full stop), media and entertainment studies, and indulging my competitive nature.
Post graduation, I sojourned for three years in southern Germany. There, I garnered a great appreciation for European culture as well as their longstanding brewing traditions/skills. Needless to say, travel is up there on my list of personal passions. Now I am back in the States where, by day, I work in sales and marketing in the construction industry. Also, I’m an on-again, off-again runner who enjoys many outdoor activities, preeminent among them being a fanatical, though rarely fantastical, golfer.
That being said, you may have to indulge some of my written idiosyncrasies. If my posts get too wacky, surely someone will let me know (Eric?). I plan to bring a bit of wit and wisdom to a community that clearly already has them in spades. Fellow readers, I shall do you proud by helping advance Gear Patrol in advancing you. After all, it’s a good bet that at least some of what entertains me just might entertain you too.

So, you finally settled on the perfect new HDTV for your mancave. It is sitting before you in all its glory, just waiting for you to feed it. Being the A/V savant that you are, you understand that no matter how technically advanced the display, it still needs high-quality source material, delivered properly, in order to render its finest looking scenes straight to your rods and cones. That’s where the new Locking HDMI Cable from PPC comes in. It’s like the Insured-Early AM-Next Day Air delivery of home theater cabling.
The PPC Locking HDMI Cable boasts beaucoup features that stand it head and shoulders above the run-of-the-mill, pack-in cables that likely came included with your TV, Blu-ray player, or gaming console. Point being, don’t trust your $5,000, carefully crafted home theater set-up to crappy cables. Here’s what you’ll get with a PPC:
- Patented locking collar that reduces fallout, providing a more reliable signal
- Push-button release tab to prevent port damage
- Perfect Flex jacket and flexible cable
- 100% foil coverage and braided sheilding to eliminate interference
- No adaptors or hardware modification required
- Elegant and intuitive design
- Backwards compatible with all HDMI versions
If you’re looking for the best possible signal and output from your theater devices, you won’t be disappointed by the peformance of the PPC Locking HDMI cable. I use this cable to pipe my Xbox 360 to my TV, and it’s not even worth comparing its quality to that of the cable that shipped with my console. PPC also offeres a variety of other cable styles, peferct for connecting your entire rig without compromise.
Cost: $49
