Intel is expected to announce the release of its 2 GHz P4-M on Tuesday 25 June, Australia time, and laptop manufacturers are gearing up to be the first to market.
Dell has adopted a controversial notebook manufacturing strategy that many of its competitors dropped last quarter.
Today, even the cheapest notebook computers outstrip the performance needs of the most demanding business users, and you no longer have to settle for a desktop because the notebook is too expensive.
Though inexpensive, the Portege M400 convertible tablet's middle-of-the-road performance and battery life may not be enough for the demanding business user. For basic tasks, however, it's a decent bargain.
There's a lot here this week for the enterprise purchaser, and a few for the wealthy home purchaser as well. Never fear though, Dell has come through with another low-cost PC.
Although it lacks an optical drive and a touchpad, and battery life could be better, this is a typically well-built ThinkPad. If you're a Tablet PC fan, it's a very good (if somewhat pricey) choice.
The Dell Latitude D600 remains among the most well-rounded enterprise laptops available.
There seems to be a pre-Xmas lull at the moment, with very little happening on the new products front. The early announcements have come out, and the last-minute surprises aren't due for a few weeks. Check out this week's new product releases.
