It's time for Dell to let it be known what their fiscal results are for their third quarter of 2013, and it's not looking very fantastic. With comparisons galore to the same period of time last year, Dell is anywhere in-between doing slightly worse and getting cut in half - and it all starts with a number that, if you didn't know better, would look positively fantastic: $13.7 billion in revenue.

AuthenTec to reportedly give non-Apple customers the boot next year
Earlier this year, we found out that Apple had purchased AuthenTec, a company that provides fingerprint scanning technology to many other companies around the world. At the time, it wasn't clear what Apple was planning to do with AuthenTec, and while its intentions are still unknown for the most part, it seems that Apple isn't willing to let others in on AuthenTec's products. A report from Korean site ETNews claims that AuthenTec will cut off all non-Apple customers sometime next year, which could spell trouble for some of AuthenTec's biggest customers.

Dell Windows 8 business PCs revealed: Tablet, Ultrabook and AIO
Dell has outed its Windows 8 enterprise range, an ultrabook, docking tablet, and all-in-one PC targeting those who have somewhat more serious needs than Facebook and gaming. The Dell Optiplex 9010 AIO, Latitude 6430u Ultrabook, and Latitude 10 tablet take some of the Windows 8 ideas we’ve already seen from Dell’s consumer range at IFA, but throws in some business seriousness including a rather fetching dock for the new tablet.

SlashGear Evening Wrap-Up: August 31, 2012
We've officially entered the final hours of August, and in typical SlashGear fashion, we're sending thing off with a bang.

Dell XPS 10 hands-on
Ditching the keyboard from your Windows tablet is a big theme at IFA this year, and Dell’s XPS 10 is no different. A 10-inch Windows RT slate with a detachable keyboard slice – that also, unlike with some firms we’ve seen, accommodates a second battery – the XPS 10 crept out of its box and into our hands here at IFA today. Read on for our first impressions.
Dell XPS Duo 12 hands-on
Windows 8 notebooks and tablets have come in all form-factors at IFA, but Dell’s XPS 12 Duo is – with its rotating display – perhaps the most eye-catching of the bunch. Dell kept the 12-inch ultrabook behind glass after its initial launch, but we caught up with the company for some hands-on playtime. The takeaway is simple: the XPS 12 Duo takes the concept of the old Inspiron Duo and polishes it to the point where it’s ready for primetime. Read on for our first impressions.
Windows 8 makes manufacturers touchy at IFA 2012
This week in Berlin at IFA 2012 we’re seeing a large amount of manufacturers bringing on touchscreens and convertible, transformable, or otherwise completely strange Windows 8 computers. There’s everything from a flipping screen to a flat horizontal interface, and so many tablets that we don’t know where to begin. One thing they’ve all got in common: they’re attempting to make use of Windows 8′s ability to work with interactive touchscreens and gestures galore.
