Money not merit is Intel’s web TV strategy

Intel cable and web TV system tipped for CES reveal

, Dec 31st 2012 Discuss [15]

Intel is readying a set-top box mixing on-demand streaming media, free cable content, and a virtual DVR, sources in the video industry claim, with the first-gen hardware tipped for preview as soon as CES 2013 next week. The new push for a slice of the living room follows Intel’s apparent frustration with the failure of first-gen Google TV boxes powered by its chips; according to TechCrunch’s tipster, the company has grown tired of “everyone doing a half-assed Google TV so it’s going to do it themselves and do it right.”

Samsung ATIV Smart PC Review

, Dec 18th 2012 Discuss [14]

When a mobile carrier like AT&T picks up a device for sale that’s as massive as the Samsung ATIV Smart PC with Windows 8, you’ve got to wonder who would be heading out to the same location they picked up their smartphone to pick up a PC. In this case it’s more of a cross-over situation in which AT&T already carries tablets, and is here easing the public into the idea that they’re going to be holding larger PC machines with a half-and-half beast like the Samsung ATIV Smart PC, itself a convertible tablet that can also be a notebook when you pick up the right docking accessory. At the moment we’re limited to the tablet bit as the two are sold separately and the lower piece isn’t up at AT&T quite yet.

Intel to acquire NVIDIA in wild rumor with Jen-Hsun at helm

, Dec 13th 2012 Discuss [13]

It appears that one of the crazier of rumors we’ve heard for a while has fired up in the processor business with NVIDIA being acquired by Intel with a CEO switch-up placing none other than NVIDIA’s current head in charge of it all. The folks at Bright Side of news have a bit of an unsubstantiated set of claims here that we’re going to go ahead and report on just as much for its possible validity as for the entertainment value it provides you, the reader, as the possibility of these two titans teaming up is not exactly on the top of our “yes, that will happen” lists for 2013.
