This week, Dell has unveiled a major revamp to its Latitude laptop line with the new E series, anchored by the 15-inch Latitude E6500 and 14-inch E6400.
Seagate has announced its first 3.5-inch disk drives using perpendicular storage technology, which it hopes will break through the storage limitations that are beginning to impact hard-drive technology.
Apple Computer's new fashion statement, direct from the runways of Paris, is a svelte design for the new iMac.
Bargain-hunting crowds are packing out asset liquidation sales for defunct dot-coms, looking to score anything from foosball tables to laptops. But the throngs are driving prices up.
It's rare that we see a genuinely new technological paradigm land on retail shelves, but solid state drives, or SSDs, are one such technology. Here are five reasons we're looking forward to their ascendancy.
Seagate's latest PC hard drives can absorb up to 400 gigabytes of data. The recenty unveiled Barracuda 7200.8 family includes 200GB, 250GB, 300GB and 400GB models for desktop PCs -- up from a maximum of 200GB.
Hard drive maker Seagate plans to boost the capacity of its PC and server drives and deliver a 1-inch drive for consumer electronics, the company said.
The Inspiron 9100 is probably one of the best notebooks around that can truly replace the desktop PC, offering speed and excellent 3D graphics performance.
IBM is expected to announce technology that shortens the time it takes to find information is being extended to its desktop hard drives.
Apple made a number of changes to the 24-inch iMac, but making it available at this price is the most impressive. The rest of the updates are welcome, and Apple's multitasking capability remains unmatched.
Apple's newest Mac Mini is set to be a hit, being both small and powerful. We suspect that if Apple had managed to squeeze Blu-ray support in there, it would take a large chunk of the home theatre PC market.
The Dell Studio XPS 13 is a very good laptop. It could have been excellent, but Dell seems to have actually tried too hard in some areas, such as the laptop's design, and we feel it's backfired slightly.
Intel's X-25M solid-state drive enjoys several advantages over both conventional disk drives and other SSDs, including improvements to data throughput, boot time and notebook battery life. If you can forget about the cost, this is by far the fastest data drive available.
Despite a few useful features, the ASUS Eee Box is a novelty at best. It can't come close to the performance and robustness of even the most basic standard budget PC, while a low-end notebook can do everything it can do and more.
