Dell Studio line: Fruit juicy
June 26th, 2008
Dell just announced their new Studio Line of laptops. They come in 15- and 17-inch versions, start at $799 in multiple hot-hot colors. Here is the full spec sheet.

Lenovo lets loose three IdeaPads: Y710, Y510, U110
January 3rd, 2008
Ever since my conversion into the Apple race, I tend to shake my head at other notebook manufacturers and think their hardware isn’t as nice or pretty or whatever. I obviously come to my senses shortly after and take another look at it from an objective standpoint. More often than not I see the error [...]
