Net-powered computer goes on show

This would certainly give networking a real boost. To actually power a PC from a network; well, that is just bizarre to me. Still, if we can pull it off and it proves to be of benefit, then more power to the concept.

Panasonic’s DVD-LX95

For the most part, I am not that into portable DVD players. Partially because I don’t travel that much anymore, but also because they never seem to live up to expectations.

All and all, I feel that firmware upgrades are generally a good thing. If this is correct, then I guess you might say that there are a number of good things in store for Apple users in the form of some firmware updates.

Gateway prepares trio of LCD monitors

Well now, maybe this latest news will help Gateway to finally catch up to everyone else in the PC market. Oh wait a minute, nevermind. They are going to be selling LCDs at ‘rock bottom prices’. Nice idea, but didn’t they already try something like this once before?

Alright, now this is just cool! According to Engadget, I am gathering that one could use these methods to better protect their own wireless LAN!

IBM X41 Tablet PC FCC Leak

Is this really a leak? Perhaps this was done on purpose? Guess we will never know for sure when it comes to the leak of the IBM X41 Tablet PC. Still, you have to admit that it does appear to a really great looking notebook!

Pour 40Gb on the curb for your dead torrents

Once again, we get to witness the entertainment industry’s limitless stupidity. Rather than trying to profit from the huge demand for getting the past content back onto the Web and then trying to find a profit center for it, the industry decides to do exactly what they did with the music industry. Man, they just [...]

ATI top-end GPUs to win back ‘channel leadership’

To me, this is just more proof that ATI has no intention of letting Nvidia maintain the firm hold on the GPU market. While ATI needs to hurry up get their latest GPU out on the shelves, at least they are moving forward with it.

FujiFilm FinePix Z1 | Digital Camera Review | Introduction

Once again, another camera with a ’so-so’ design. While some might argue that this review was a little one-sided, I really think that it was pretty accurate for the most part. But that is just my take on it.

Hybrid flash-magnetic drive from MS and Samsung

OK, the idea of a hybrid Flash- Hard drive seems a little foreign to me. The concept is likely sound a sound one, but I’m just not sure I can see the immediate advantage that would make me want to rush out and buy one of these puppies.

Sony DSC-T7 digital camera

I like most Sony products, but this camera that they are putting out has a really awful layout in my opinion. I think they ought to consider a possible redesign the next time around, but that is just me.
