Dell XPS M1730

2009-04-16T22:22:00.000-07:00

Price: $2,663.00

Best general-use and gaming laptop.

•Gaming performance
•Display quality
•LED backlit keyboard
•Quiet operation

•Bloatware
•Expensive
•Massive power supply
•11-pound weight

Reviews all point to the Dell XPS M1730 as a top-notch mobile gaming machine and a great desktop-replacement laptop in general. Expensive even in its base configurations, the laptop can be optioned with a wide range of options, including dual video cards. The 17-inch widescreen display is widely praised, as is overall performance, though the screen may be a little too glossy for brightly lit offices. If watching multimedia is more important to you than gaming, the Acer Aspire 8920G (*est. $2,500) costs a bit more, but includes a Blu-ray player, multi-channel surround sound and a widescreen 18.4-inch screen. It's not as great for gaming, but the Acer is a solid performer in all other aspects. You can get a Blu-ray player on the Dell XPS M1730 for $400 more, but it still won't have the Acer's multi-speaker sound system.
While reviews for the Dell XPS M1730 are a little older, more current reporting says that nothing now available usurps its standing as the best gaming laptop. It earns rave reviews from NotebookReview.com, an impressive and respected source for laptop computer reviews, and Editors' Choice awards from several other well-regarded publications, including CNet, PC Magazine and Laptop magazine. Though it's a difficult read, the review at NotebookCheck.net is worthwhile for its comprehensive testing.

Shifting Strategy

2009-04-16T04:57:00.000-07:00

The "Laptop Hunter" strategy is a definite departure from last fall's divisive Seinfeld-Gates series of Microsoft ads. (Microsoft, for the record, says those segments were meant only to "reintroduce" the brand and get people talking.) It also takes a distinctly different focus from the "I'm a Mac" ads Apple has long used to beat down the Microsoft name.

That distinction may serve Microsoft well, says Matt McCutchin, a former ad copywriter who's worked on numerous Microsoft and PC-related campaigns in the past.

"It was a great strategy a year ago to try to kick the door open and get the buzz going, to get Microsoft talked about in a different way," says McCutchin, a lecturer in the University of Texas at Austin's advertising program. "I think that bringing it home to the actual shopping trip is the right next step. That's what really goes through a consumer's mind now."

Future Thinking

This latest ad is the third in a series of six "Laptop Hunter" spots scheduled to be released over the coming months. The segments are little-by-little upping the ante: While an early edition focused on a machine under $1,000 and the most recent looked for a laptop less than $1,500, a future spot is said to raise the price limit to $2,000.

Microsoft is clearly aware of the edge that playing up price can offer over its competition. A Microsoft brand exec even joked that it was a "good day" when Apple unveiled a $2700 MacBook Pro at this year's Macworld Expo. The question now is whether Apple will address the hits in a new way or continue pushing for success with its past tactics. McCutchin -- who recently made the switch himself, by the way, to Mac -- thinks a change may be in order.

"I would say it's time for Apple to evolve its strategy," he says. "They're going to have a harder time trying to justify those price points."

Unlike the Seinfeld ads, these latest spots offer no churros or tight-running Conquistador shoes. In the long run, though, they may offer something far more valuable in Microsoft's ongoing rivalry with its cooler, but perhaps costlier, competitor.

"I think Apple's going to have to deal with the issue at some point," McCutchin contends. "That's why Microsoft's strategy is so well-timed in making this more about price and value as opposed to some sort of coolness."

What do you think? Is Apple's Get a Mac campaign still better and more effective than Microsoft's Laptop Hunter?

Which Campaign is Better: Microsoft's Laptop Hunter or Apple's Get a Mac?

2009-04-16T04:43:00.000-07:00

Microsoft has unveiled its latest "Laptop Hunter" ad, throwing back a powerful punch against Apple's long-running (and, by most counts, long-winning) campaign on coolness. Unlike Microsoft's past attempts, this new line of marketing has many ad experts taking note -- and saying maybe, just maybe, Microsoft has finally hit the mark.

Microsoft's Laptop Hunter Ad

The new "Laptop Hunter" spot, the third in Microsoft's latest ad series, shows a mom and son trying to find a laptop for less than $1500. Microsoft offers to pay the price of the computer if they can find one within that range.

Dual-core desktop CPU bout: AMD vs. Intel

2009-04-16T01:34:00.000-07:00

What would the results of a dual-core desktop CPU fight look like? Many people equate Windows PCs with Intel Pentium processors (and soon will likely be doing the same with Macs), but we've seen dual-core CPU AMD systems power ahead of dual-core Intel-based PCs on more than one occasion.

To answer the question once and for all, we set ourselves to a no-holds-barred dual-core desktop CPU fistfight. AMD submitted its five dual-core CPUs, and Intel matched with its lineup of four. We built two test beds as nearly identical as we could for the two platforms and ran each chip through a battery of tests. We then ran those results through our price-vs.-performance calculator to find out not only which is the best overall dual-core CPU in terms of raw performance but also which one offers the most bang for your buck. Skip ahead to the official ruling if you want, but the match itself is interesting.

Laptop

2009-04-16T00:32:00.000-07:00

A laptop (also known as a notebook) is a personal computer designed for mobile use small enough to sit on one's lap.[1] A laptop includes most of the typical components of a desktop computer, including a display, a keyboard, a pointing device (a touchpad, also known as a trackpad, or a pointing stick), speakers, as well as a battery, into a single small and light unit. The rechargeable battery required is charged from an AC/DC adapter (aka, a wall wart) and typically stores enough energy to run the laptop for several hours.

Laptops are usually shaped like a large notebook with thicknesses between 0.7–1.5 inches (18–38 mm) and dimensions ranging from 10x8 inches (27x22cm, 13" display) to 15x11 inches (39x28cm, 17" display) and up. Modern laptops weigh 3 to 12 pounds (1.4 to 5.4 kg); older laptops were usually heavier. Most laptops are designed in the flip form factor to protect the screen and the keyboard when closed. Modern 'tablet' laptops have a complex joint between the keyboard housing and the display, permitting the display panel to twist and then lay flat on the keyboard housing. They usually have a touchscreen display and some include handwriting recognition or graphics drawing capability.

Laptops were originally considered to be "a small niche market"[2] and were thought suitable mostly for "specialized field applications" such as "the military, the Internal Revenue Service, accountants and sales representatives".[2][3] Battery-powered portable computers had just 2% worldwide market share in 1986[4]. But today, there are already more laptops than desktops in businesses, and laptops are becoming obligatory for student use and more popular for general use.[5] According to a forecast by Intel, more laptops than desktops will be sold in the general PC market as soon as 2009[6].

INTEL INTRODUCES NEW CHIPSET FOR INTEL PENTIUM III PROCESSOR-BASED PERFORMANCE PCs.

2009-04-15T22:39:00.000-07:00

Intel Corp. introduced a new chipset for Intel Pentium III processor-based PCs targeted at the performance desktop market segment.

The Intel 820E Chipset features a new I/O Controller Hub (ICH See Intel Hub Architecture. 2) for greater system performance and flexibility. The Intel 820E Chipset uses the same RDRAM(Rambus DRAM) Pronounced "r-d-ram." A dynamic RAM chip technology from Rambus, Inc., Los Altos, CA (www.rambus.com). Rambus licensed its memory designs to semiconductor companies, which manufactured the chips.
..... Click the link for more information. Memory Controller Hub (MCH See Intel Hub Architecture. ) found on the original Intel 820 Chipset introduced in November, and the ICH2 provides an additional Universal Serial Bus See USB.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(hardware, standard) Universal Serial Bus - (USB) An external peripheral interface standard for communication between a computer and external peripherals over an inexpensive cable using biserial transmission. controller, a Local Area Network (LAN(Local Area Network) A communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area. The "clients" are the user's workstations typically running Windows, although Mac and Linux clients are also used.

"With its enhanced I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I/O - Input/Output capabilities, the Intel 820E Chipset provides greater system flexibility to computer manufacturers and integrators," says Louis Burns, vice president and general manager of Intel's Desktop Platforms Group. "And like the Intel 820 Chipset, the Intel 820E Chipset is designed to take advantage of the power in the fastest Intel Pentium III processors, providing the highest performance in video, graphics and multimedia both on and off the Internet."

With two USB USB

Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. controllers, the ICH2 offers 24 Mbps of bandwidth across four ports, supporting Intel's push for Ease of Use of the PC. Feature integration also includes dual Ultra ATA/100 controllers to support the fastest integrated device electronics (IDE) transfer rates available and added performance using Intel's storage driver. To meet the needs for e-home use, the ICH2 has an enhanced AC'97 interface supporting full surround-sound for Dolby Digital audio found on DVD DVD: see digital versatile disc.

Type of optical disc. The DVD represents the second generation of compact-disc (CD) technology. and simultaneously supports a soft modem connection. To meet the networking needs for e-home or e-Business, the ICH-2 has a LAN Connect Interface (LCI LCI Livable Centers Initiative
LCI Life Cycle Inventory
LCI Landing Craft, Infantry
LCI La Chaine Info (French cable news channel)
LCI Lean Construction Institute
LCI Lions Club International ) supporting multiple network connectivity solutions.

By integrating the Intel PRO/100 Fast Ethernet controller directly into the chipset, Intel makes it easier for computer manufacturers and system integrators to implement cost-effective network connections in a range of desktop systems. The controller works with one of three new physical layer components from Intel and enables three distinct solutions for computer manufacturers. These solutions include: managed 10/100Mbps Ethernet with Alert on LAN technology for business environments; basic 10/100Mbps connectivity for the value segment; and 1 Mbps home networking connectivity. These physical layer components can be placed directly on the PC motherboard or used on a new type of network adapter card such as the Intel PRO/100 VE Desktop Adapter, which is based on the Communications and Networking Riser (CNR) specification. The CNR card allows computer manufacturers to configure network-ready solutions for several different market segments.

The new components are a part of Intel's PRO/100 family of network connectivity solutions, which include mobile, desktop and server network adapter cards and LAN-on-motherboard products. All of Intel's PRO/100 Network Connections are based on a common architecture and use the Intel SingleDriver technology, allowing IT managers to use a single software driver for all their networked PCs and servers.

The Intel 820E Chipset is currently available to customers and priced at $35 each in 1,000-unit quantities.

Motorola to launch line of multi-user computers today

2009-04-15T22:24:00.000-07:00

Motorola Inc introduces the MultiPersonal Computer (MPC) series of multi-user business computers. The machines, which will cost from $23,985 to $59,985, can manage as many as 32 users while acting as network servers, allowing different brands of computers to 'talk' to each other. The lowest-end machine in the series, the MPC-100, costs about $8,000 per user, or 33 percent less than a comparable machine from IBM. MPC computers employ Motorola's 88000 microprocessor, which uses reduced instruction-set computing (RISC) technology. The high-end model, the MPC-300, uses two microprocessors in a 'multi-processor' format. MPC machines run UNIX, and they mimic IBM microcomputers, so they can run MS-DOS programs as well. Motorola plans a $30 million advertising campaign, aiming to promote the new product and to enhance the company's image as a computer manufacturer.

My Computer

The first devices resembling a modern computer were developed in the mid-20th century (1940–1945), although similar machines had been constructed earlier. The first electronic computers were the size of a large room, consuming as much power as several hundred modern personal computers (PC).[1] Modern computers based on tiny integrated circuits are millions to billions of times more capable than the early machines, and occupy a fraction of the space.[2] Simple computers are small enough to fit into a wristwatch, and can be powered by a watch battery. Personal computers in their various forms are icons of the Information Age, what most people think of as a "computer", but the embedded computers found in devices ranging from fighter aircraft to industrial robots, digital cameras, and children's toys are the most numerous.
