    HP stuffs 1 billion colors in the ZR30w 30-inch display

    Posted on June 1, 2010 | No Comments
    The new HP ZR30w can display all the colors of the rainbow, if the rainbow in question has 1.07 billion colors that is. That's about 64 times more than Apple's more expensive 30-inch Cinema HD Display. That's just a little tid-bit for those that like to keep track of these things.

    Review: MSI X-Slim X600

    Posted on September 28, 2009 | No Comments
    The MSI X-Slim X600 tries so hard – so very hard – to be a full-size, Windows MacBook Air. It has the looks, it has the specs, hell, it even has the same shape. But one huge flaw keeps will keep it from becoming the de facto slim Windows notebook: the trackpad. It’s that bad. Specs Intel [...]

    Atlona steps up to the plate, produces DVI to Mini DisplayPort converter

    Posted on September 23, 2009 | No Comments
    Apple left out a large customer base when it released the Mini DisplayPort only 24-inch Cinema Display. Suddenly computers with only a DVI output couldn't play nicely with Apple's top monitor. Tears have certainly been shed and at least a few fanboys probably called foul, but until now, there was nothing that could be done besides replace the computer’s graphic card which isn't an option for older notebooks.

    Wow, it seems that someone over at PCWorld.com couldn't keep their mouth shut and announced the Alienware M17x a bit early. No matter, the most important thing is that you see what this baby has under the hood. It's damn impressive and certainly allpowerful.

  • Alienware’s M17X gaming laptop with twin GTX 280M GPUs truly is all powerful

    Alienware’s M17X gaming laptop with twin GTX 280M GPUs truly is all powerful

    Posted on May 29, 2009 | No Comments

    var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/pc_games/Alienware_s_M17X_with_twin_GTX_280M_GPUs_is_all_powerful'; The announcement wasn't scheduled for a few more days -- four according to the teaser site -- but it looks like Alienware's All Powerful gaming laptop has been set free anyway. So, does it live up to the clues? Pretty much... how does a pair of 1GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280M GPUs strike you? No Core i7 listed, instead we're looking at a Core 2 Extreme quad-core CPU at the top end with up to 8GB of 1333MHz DDR3 memory, and 1TB of 7200-rpm disk or a 512GB SSD if you prefer. RAID 1 or RAID 0? Sure. Rounding things out is a nine-cell battery of unstated performance, FireWire, 4x USB, eSATA, ExpressCard, 802.11n WiFi, 8-in-1 media card reader, dual-layer Blu-ray, a 1920 x 1200 pixel edge-to-edge LCD, DisplayPort and HDMI-outs all wrapped up in a massive chassis weighing 11.68-pounds with a 15.98 x 12.65 x 2.11-inch footprint. It's also packing a GeForce 9400M G1 GPU with HybridPower technology that allows you to scale the graphics back to conserve battery power. Prices start at $1,799 for a lot less than we mentioned above.

    As a footnote to the details above, PCWorld also says that Alienware will use next week's E3 show to update us on its 42.8-inch curved monitor we went hands-on with back in January of 2008.
