The RazorBook 400 looked to be yet another budget ultraportable consigned to the “Eee rival” pile, until 3K Computers grabbed a niche by slashing its launch price to just $299. That perked some interest, even if the spec sheet wasn’t all that impressive. GottaBeMobile are one of the first sites I’ve seen with [...]
Nintendo’s Wii Fit board is great, but what if you expect more from a peripheral than to be told you’re overweight and should do more yoga? Two researchers from DFKI (the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence) decided to see just what else you could control by wriggling your body Michael Jackson glued to the [...]
Distributed media specialists CodexNovus have announced their largest home entertainment server, the DMS-6000, which packs 6TB of storage and can support multiple streams of high-definition video and surround sound audio. A 120MBps pipe can simultaneously deliver up to eight 1080p video streams, 12 standard definition video streams, 16 uncompressed audio streams or 48 MP3 [...]
We’ve seen Gameboy mods before, but I didn’t know you could repurpose one to act as a guitar effects and sample loop box. That’s just what software Nanoloop does, and since you don’t really want to be jabbing at a D-pad while you’re meant to be concentrating on your frets, Joey Mariano has just the [...]
We already know how much it’ll cost (read: plenty) and that its smaller 901 sibling holds up well performance-wise, but so far in-the-wild footage of ASUS’ Eee PC 1000H have been pretty rare. Having gone on sale in Taiwan last Wednesday, TweakTown managed to find someone with stock and have shot an unboxing video together with [...]
Did you know that Tesla coils can sing? ArcAttack, an AV-DJ group, certainly do, and they’re behind the world’s first Singing Tesla Coils High-Voltage DJ system. Basically, the electrical arcs shot out by the coils actually create audible square waves, similar to original analogue synthesizers.
Check out the video of the Singing Tesla Coils in action, [...]
It would help if you could understand Italian, but this video from PC Professionale speaks the universal language of “break out the screwdrivers” as it dismantles Acer’s new Aspire One budget ultraportable. There’s good news and bad in terms of upgrade potential; looks like networking and connectivity are most flexible, with storage lagging behind.
Check out the [...]
ASUS have previously said that, until the supply chain problems plaguing Intel’s Atom processor are fixed, their Celeron-based Eee PC 900 will continue to be sold alongside the new, Atom-based Eee PC 901. Although the 900 is cheaper than its eventual-replacement, you could be forgiven for wondering exactly how much more performance you get for [...]
In a week when full-sized notebooks have wrenched back the focus from their budget ultraportable brethren, we’ve had Gateway’s M-152XL on the SlashGear test bench. With a 15.4-inch widescreen display, Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 processor and separate ATI Mobility Radeon graphics, packed into a 6.2 pound chassis, Gateway’s latest is really looking to [...]
Intel are working on a new client/server model for their Mobile Internet Device (MID) platform, which would take advantage of high-speed wireless networking to make up for the relatively low-power processors fitted to the touchscreen devices themselves. Demonstrating the system with a mobile Second Lifeapp, Intel’s solution is to host its own servers on which [...]
