I want on of these monitors, it has a resolution of 1920×1200 on a 24-inch screen, a 3000:1 contrast ratio, HDMI, D-SUB, and DVD-D inputs. To top all of that off, literally, they integrated a 1.3MP camera into the top of it.
Asus calls it HDTV suite, but it sounds like a spin-off HD scalar with a built-in SD tuner. The Asus HD scaler takes any input from s-video, component, DVI, VGA, or HDMI and upscales the source up to resolution of 1920×1200 for your computer monitor. It also has NTSC and Pal tuner to turn your [...]
Alas, one of the other major PC manufacturers is getting into the UMPC space, well not really, it might just be semantics, but I’d call this and ultra-portable, not a UMPC. It’s the Compaq 2133 and its being made to compete with the Asus Eee, although hopefully it won’t have the same superbly generic hardware [...]
Not much is known about the mysterious competitor from Acer, but we know they ordered 1 million of them from contract manufacturer Wistron. On top of that we know that they will have 7 or 9 inch screens and will cost about $470.
NVIDIA’s latest addition to the mobile graphics market doesn’t offer up much new in terms of hardware performance its 8000M series brethren. In fact, hardware wise the 9500M GS and 9300M G are exactly the same as the 8600M GT and 8400M GS, respectively.
There are two, the P5E3 Premium WiFi-AP @n, and the Rampage Formula motherboard. They both feature the X48 chipset with the ICH9R Southbridge and Intel Fast Memory access, they both also accept Core 2 Extreme, Core 2 Quad, and Core 2 Duo processors, they both have dual gigabit Ethernet, 8-channel HD audio, and system bus’ [...]
If you have been (not so) patiently waiting for the Everex CloudBook notebook to come out, and just can’t wait any longer, you can create the same thing on an Eee PC. All you have to do is go find the latest build of the gOS and then get the Ubuntu drivers for your Eee, [...]
I’m something of a multitasker. By that I mean that I have no fewer than 4 screens at my desk. Granted, they’re not all hooked up to the same computer, but with the use of a handy program called Synergy (look it up, you’ll love it) it feels like they’re all on the same [...]
Many companies went green last year, and Asus is being more innovative on their Green initiative. Asus’s new P5E3 Premium motherboard uses a new solution to make it more energy efficient - this solution is called ASUS EPU (Energy Processing Unit).
So far there are talks of an E-DT or desktop and an E-TV monitor. The idea behind the new products will be the same as it was with the Eee, make a great product that you can profitably sell for dirt cheap compared to its competitors.
