Everyone's curious about the upcoming (if it ever arrives) Apple Tablet! Jemery Horwitz of the iLounge has compiled a list of ten new things about the Tablet.
Ten? Will it sing? Wil it dance? Will it be completely overpriced? :)
Intel has a love and hate relationship with netbooks, because it is scared that they may eat up from its more lucrative laptop business. So, afraid of that possibility, they will be making available dual-core SU-processors for the ultra-thin notebook computers out there. It is really hard to accept paying 2X to 3X for an SU-based laptop and not even get two cores.
So, by adding dual-core processors, they are creating more separation between them and the Atom-based netbooks.

Everything that is designed by Apple these days is considered as good as gold and maniacally copied by manufacturers big and small. So it is no surprise that we see waves and waves of attemps to "MacBook" traditional Wintel-laptops. One such is the HP Envy 13, and Gizmodo puts it through the gadget-blog paces in this short review.
When two divas collide! In an extended interview with mega-diva Michael Arrington of TechCrunch, mega-diva Steve Ballmer of Microsoft trash-talks Chrome and Safari among many other thigns. This is a long (text-based) interview. Check it out and get outraged ;-)
Engadget.com asks, how would you change netbooks if you were king for a day and could influence things the way you want them to be? This was posted less than an hour ago, and they already have 46 comments posted!
So go ahead, and become Engadget's new Netbook Designer Chief :)
There are lots of DIY goodies in the October 2009 issuse of the Maximum PC magazine. Lots of practical stuff, but also some geeky-fun things like turning your netbook into a picture frame. They also talk about adding memory to a netbook, BIOS hacks, OS adventures and tons more. Check it out at your local newstand or unearth it from your stack of magazine subscriptions that were offered at a good price but are just too many to read on a regular basis :)
Just about everyone using a laptop, even one of those 17 or 18-inchers, have left restrained, constrained, and in jail with the limited space of a laptop screen. But that may no longer be a limitation! Mashable talks of a new expandable dual-screen design by Alaskan-based gScreen! These will be LED-backlit displays, and the specifications listed there show a $3000 price-tag for a nicely spec'ed laptop. As you can expect, for a unique laptop like this, there will be a price premium!
And some could argue, if it can increase your productivity and make your work more pleasurable (or less frustrating), then the price-tag is ...priceless!
