Gateway’s Six New Notebooks Run the Gamut 2008-04-11 12:56:41 There’s something for everyone in Gateway
’s newest lineup: The notebooks, announced yesterday, include everything from three gaming rigs to a convertible tablet. With select models, users can opt for 64-bit systems, which pack performance benefits for gamers and power users.Perhaps the biggest piece of news is that Gateway is bringing its FX gaming formula, introduced just last January, to a 15.4-inch machine. The M-6850FX has an Intel Core 2 Duo T5550 processor, ATI Radeon HD 2600 graphics, 3GB RAM, and a massive 320GB, 5,400 rpm hard drive. At only $999, it’s likely to appeal to people who can’t afford– or are wary of– the overheating-prone Alienware m15x.The other two gaming rigs look like refreshes of machines we loved: The P-171XL FX and the P-6831FX. The P-172 FX Edition Read more:Notebooks

The Toshiba Satellite U405 2008-04-09 10:19:33 This isn’t the ho-hum ToshibaSatellite
you’re accustomed to seeing. Sporting a dazzling new design, the 4.6-pound Toshiba Satellite U405, the company’s successor to the U300 line, strikes a fine balance between sweet looks and portability.Any discussion about this machine has to start with its stylish new digs.

DisplayLink Releases Beta Drivers for Mac 2008-04-02 11:29:55 If you’re an Apple-head who’s been patiently waiting for DisplayLink (a technology designed to connect multiple monitors easily) to come to the Mac platform, rest easy, as your time as come.Today, DisplayLink released its first beta driver designed to bring DisplayLink-powered USB devices to Intel-based Macs. So what does this mean? Now MacBook, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air users can link up to 4 monitors, which is a technological godsend for hard-core multitaskers.Right now the DisplayLink beta drivers don’t support 2D acceleration (window movements will be slower than on their XP and Vista counterparts) or 3D acceleration (iPhoto slideshows and Keynote presentations will not function properly), but here’s hoping that those issues are ironed out soon. If that hasn’t taken the st Read more:Drivers
