The Apple Store is offering MacBook Airs, starting at $1,099 for a 1.60GHz 13-inch model. If you’re still looking for [...]  

Six months ago, we were poking and prodding at MSI's X-Slim X340, one of the very first laptops based on Intel's consumer ultra-low-voltage platform. MSI has now introduced a trendier, faster, and more mobile successor based on a similar formula: the X-Slim X350. The X350 has a 13.4" 1366x768...  

It has been a while since I blog since moving to China. So asked my friends in Taiwan when I was there last weekend and I explained the two reasons: (1) I am still trying to figure out what part of my work in China can I blog and which I can’t. Even the fact [...]  

Wichita based QuickerTek has announced their new 5dbi whip antenna for the latest crop of Apple MacBook and MacBook Pro laptops models. This antenna upgrade attaches to the internal Apple AirPort card through the ExpressCard slot or the security slot-depending on the MacBook/MacBook Pro.

After years without a competitor lustworthy enough to challenge its crown, the MacBook Air finally faces some thin competition from Dell’s new Adamo XPS. Rob Enderle talks about his hands on experiences with “the hottest Windows 7 laptop,” and how its performance, features and style compare.  

The AQ Amigo is made of plastic, but it’s so thin it seems more fragile than a pair of ceramic speakers. At 0.98 inches thick, it’s just a bit fatter than a typical laptop screen. The speaker is equipped with two 1.2-watt 19 mm “Exciter” drivers. AQORD Ltd. says that “the Exciter itself turns electrical…  

Looking for ways to speed up performance on my Macbook Pro (2.4 Gig processor), I came across an article about Solid State Drive (SSD) performance. I then located an ExpressCard SSD hard disk, for use in the ExpressCard slot on my MacBook Pro. Setting the system up on this card produced fairly impressive results; I will detail here what I did to configure this setup, some of the limitations, and some of the advantages. I bought a FileMate...  

Israeli airport security, clearly always on high alert, shot the hell out of a young woman’s laptop at the airport. Incredibly the HDD survived. The photos show at least three bullet holes that ripped through the MacBook.  

MacBook Air continues to redefine what?s possible. Just 0.16 inch at its thinnest point, 0.76 inch at its thickest point, and a mere 3.0 pounds, it?s still ultrathin and ultraportable. And now, pushing the performance limits of ultraportable notebooks, it features a faster 2.13GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, a 1066MHz frontside bus, 2GB of DDR3 memory, and 6MB...
