  • The Origin EON15 is the ugly ducking of gaming notebooks

    The Origin EON15 is the ugly ducking of gaming notebooks

    The Origin EON15 gaming notebook is a computer after our own hearts. Instead of a crazy and so-called radical computer case that the company no doubt spent too much money developing, the Origin EON15 is packaged in a no-frills casing. This means more power for the money, kids. And we like the cheap power.

    The new MSi Classic Series CX520 and CR620 notebooks rock Core i5 or i3 CPUs

    Intel's Core i5 and i3 CPUs have found a new home in MSi's latest notebook offerings. The CX520 and CR20 Classic Series combine otherwise standard specs and a 15.6-inch 16:9 screen with the powerful cores. Both seem like solid rigs although you'll likely pass over them in favor of something a bit more flashy.

    The Dell Precision M6500 packs a Core i7 Extreme and high price tag

    Dell is serious about mobile computing. That is if you consider mobile computing touting around a full-power 8.5lbs, 17-inch notebook. At least with the new M6500, you won't be compromising anything. Seriously, anything because the amount of computing power that the new M6500 packs into a mobile platform is impressive.

  • The HP ENVY 13 and 15 combine Voodoo Magic with Apple Macbook Pro design

    The HP ENVY 13 and 15 combine Voodoo Magic with Apple Macbook Pro design

    There is simply no denying that the new HP Envy 13 and 15 look like an HP-ified Apple unibody MacBook Pro. Even the trackpad is a single, large glass button that supports gestures thanks to 3rd party software. I'm not saying they don't look great, but seriously, someone copied off of Steve Jobs' test. Good thing that these notebooks seem to have the power and poise to stand as HP's flagship line.

  • Olidata Conte ultraportable finally shows itself, looks mighty good

    Olidata Conte ultraportable finally shows itself, looks mighty good


    My, my Olidata -- why on Earth have you been depriving our wandering eyes from this beauty for so long? After being originally introduced at CES, we've heard precisely nothing since... until now, obviously. At long last, the striking Conte ultraportable has found its way outside of the lab over in Italy, sporting an ultrathin frame, chiclet-style keyboard, a bezel that's a bit too wide for our tastes, an HDMI output and a price tag starting at just €799 ($1,129). From what we can gather, a few versions of the machine will be available, one of which sports an SU2700 CPU, 13.3-inch LED-backlit display, a 120GB hard drive, 3GB of RAM, Bluetooth, WiFi and a multi-touch trackpad. Another variant is slated to include a Core Solo SU3500 CPU and a 120GB HDD, while yet another gets a Core 2 Duo SL9400 and a 128GB SSD. Peek the read link for a few more looks, including one of the most bizarre advertisements we've ever seen for a mere laptop.

    [Thanks, Andrea]
