Lenovo ThinkPad W530 review: workstation
     Tue, Apr 02 2013 | 12:00P | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
The Lenovo ThinkPad W530 is a professional business notebook for demanding applications such as graphic or video design and other professional software. You can put it in a docking station and you get (rare) connectors such as Firewire and a Expresscard 34 card slot. It has a solid build quality, and it features the trademark quality keyboard we're used to from Lenovo.

Dell Latitude 10 Windows 8 Pro Tablet Review
     Mon, Apr 01 2013 | 5:00P | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
Are business oriented tablets such as the Dell Latitude 10 better suited for the workplace than popular mainstream tablets such as the iPad? Dell believes their solutions are. Last month, Dell issued a press release in which it claimed its Latitude 10 Enhanced Security tablet is "up to 17 times faster and 94 percent less expensive to deploy than iPads in large scale enterprise implementations." Those are bold claims with very specific figures to back them up. Regardless of how you feel about Apple, Dell, or another manufacturer's products, one thing is certain: the use of tablets for business purposes is gaining significant traction. In this review, we are taking a hands-on look at the Latitude 10 Productivity edition which is a high-end model of the tablet. With the Productivity edition, you'll get key features such as HDMI and a removable battery. (A swappable battery, HDMI port, and micro-USB charging port are not available with the Essential edition of this tablet.) Dell was also kind enough to send us the optional docking station, Wacom Active Stylus, Dell KM713 Compact Wireless Keyboard and Mouse, Soft-touch case, and a spare 60Wh battery. That's a whole bunch of accessibility and features packed up and ready to go...

Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2: Windows 8 Slate Review
     Mon, Apr 01 2013 | 4:55P | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
Lenovo's first ThinkPad tablet was a bit of a disappointment to be candid. Even the best Android Honeycomb tablets were severely lacking on a number of fronts, back in the day. What was the use of a business tablet that couldn't run business apps? Well, forget all that. The ThinkPad Tablet 2 is a real business tablet, and one that actually feels like a ThinkPad--albeit one that has some trouble keeping itself together. It runs Windows 8 Pro. Not Windows RT, not Android, not Windows XP, but real Windows 8 (or Windows 8 Pro). It has a gorgeous 10.1-inch 1366x768 LED IPS multi-touch screen, an optional active digitizer stylus, optional mobile broadband, and ThinkPad good looks...

     Mon, Apr 01 2013 | 9:57A | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
The Acer Aspire V5-571PG-9814 is a slim and portable 15-inch laptop that has a DVD drive, strong graphics performance and a comfortable, backlit keyboard. It could have better battery life and the display`s screen resolution could use an increase, but overall it`s a good laptop for the money, especially if you want to play 3D games on-the-go."

Samsung Series 5 13.3 Ultrabook (NP540U3C-A01CA) - BCCHardware
     Tue, Mar 26 2013 | 10:19A | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
As far as serviceability goes, the Samsung Series 5 is one of the easier notebooks or Ultrabooks I`ve ever taken apart. Most companies go out of their way to make servicing Ultrabooks tough so that when then break (hopefully many years down the road), you have to take them back to the manufacturer for service. This is not the case for Samsung with this model, chances are good if your local repair shop can get the part, they can easily repair this unit for you. . ."

Adata DashDrive Air AE400 review: wireless card reader
     Fri, Mar 22 2013 | 9:00A | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
The DashDrive AE400 is a pretty ingenius little product. The AE400 is very easy to use, and is a practical way of transferring photos and other files from an SD card and USB storage device to iOS, Android and Windows tablets and smartphones. It's a great solution for devices without a USB host port or SD card slot.

Acer Iconia W510 Hybrid Tablet Review
     Thu, Mar 21 2013 | 9:03A | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
Microsoft’s answer to the changing computing landscape is Windows 8, an operating system that attempts to balance the demands of traditional productivity-oriented desktops with the mobility of, well, mobile devices. Hybrids thus appear to be the optimal home for Windows 8 as both aspects of the OS are in use and get to shine as they were designed to. That brings us to the Acer Iconia W510 hybrid tablet, which can be essentially converted into a full-fledged PC with its keyboard dock – no Windows RT here, folks.

Acer Aspire S7 13? (S7-391) Ultrabook Review
     Thu, Mar 21 2013 | 9:02A | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
"A few months back, Acer were nice enough to send over a pre-production 11.6? Aspire S7 Ultrabook for us to test. Today, we’re having a look at a retail 13? model, which aside from the obvious size difference should be a much more polished product overall, running with the proper 1080p display listed in the specification as well as a retail copy of Windows 8. I’m excited to find out the differences between the two, so let’s get right into it."

Medion Akoya X54000 review: cheap touchscreen
     Wed, Mar 20 2013 | 3:24P | Notebooks | PermaLink
Posted by: STAFF
If you want a touch monitor for your desktop PC, this is the cheapest option we've seen, and in that light this isn't a bad screen as long you're aware of its limitations. It could even be a fun project for modding or home automation. For this price you won't find any smaller touchscreens either, and most others cost at least twice as much.

I wish there was just ONE little black box that would allow an IT Admin to connect any kind of hard drive to it, so there's no need to crack open a computer system, mess with BIOS settings or waste time trying to move GBs over a tediously slow USB 2.0 connection.
