So Van Der Led is making these new notebooks, that look like Pimped Eee PCs, and calling them Jisus. No, I am not kidding, and as far as I know, this is not a joke, they are literally calling these notebooks Jisus.
What deserves such a long and confusing title? Why nothing more than a new ruggedized compact Linux PC. It’s targeted for automation, digital signage, or for in your car for navigation, media serving, web surfing, whatever.
Is it just me or is it a growing trend these days for more and more of the excitable and highly marketable to be using low end, often times single-core, processors of the past? Why did Intel and AMD even bother developing dual and quad core chips when we were going to wind up going [...]
In competition with the OLPC project, Intel is finally going to start selling their notebook for prices ranging from $300 to $500. Some of the newer models will have fewer features and thus require less power, but they are also pushing out models with both a 7 and a 9 inch screen, a 30GB HDD [...]
AMD’s new Phenom X4 9100e is a power sipper operating at a low 65 watts. That might sound like a lot, but for a quad-core processor that’s actually considerably low and is more on par with dual core processors of today.
You know how sometimes something gets hyped up so much, and then by the time it actually gets released/announced/goes on sale it kind of sucks? Well I still want one of these new HP UMPCs even though I now know the specs, starting with the VIA processors and graphics chipsets.
Actually Intel is referring to the whole line of these notebooks as Netbooks, so technically it’s not totally gone. But, the notebook isn’t actually being manufactured by Intel so they are letting all the manufacturers of this platform of notebooks choose their own name for theirs.
Right now there is a manufacturer in Malaysia, they are [...]
Intel has cuts more watts on its new server and workstation CPUs by introducing several L5400 Quad-Core series chips. The L5420 and L5410 run at 2.50 GHz and 2.33 GHz, respectively with 1333MHz FSB - Both chips features 12MB of cache.
These things aren’t exactly new hack, but last time I read about them they had mediocre hardware inside. Now they are pushing quad-core processors, X3100 graphics, 4GB of RAM, and slim-line optical drives.
“Smackdown” is the codename for this motherboard that has been fitted for Nehalem processors. Nehalem is Intel’s next micro architecture for their processors and isn’t due out until much later this year.
