ECS BR95IIX desktop PC crams a Sandy Bridge CPU into a nettop shell

Brad Linder — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 22:15:18 +0000

A new mini-desktop computer from EliteGroup Computer Systems (ECS) showed up at the FCC website this week. It looks like a low-power nettop computer, but it will be available with Intel Core i5 or Core i7 Sandy Bridge processors, making it a pretty decent replacement for a full-sized desktop PC. ECS is a Taiwanese computer manufacturer, and it's likely that the...

Brad Linder — Tue, 31 May 2011 14:15:43 +0000

Asus isn't the only company looking at ways to let you use a smartphone as a tablet.

But ECS is showing off a prototype of a tablet shell that could work with a wide range...

Brad Linder — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 16:34:35 +0000

Elitegroup Computer Systems (ECS) is showing off several new tablets at CeBIT in Germany this week. ECS is an original device manufacturer in Taiwan, which means that you probably won't ever see a product sold under the ECS brand name in the West... but you might see a tablet that looks a lot like the ones on display at CeBIT...

More tablets coming at CES

Brad Linder — Thu, 23 Dec 2010 18:45:57 +0000

It's definitely starting to look like tablets are going to be the hot item of CES 2011. That doesn't necessarily mean that tablets will be everywhere you look in the coming year. After all, one of the hottest items at CES 2010 was the 3D HDTV. I can't count how many of them I saw on display, but when's the...

Brad Linder — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 21:14:32 +0000

ECS is showing off a new 10 inch Olivetti netbook with a super-slim design. Netbook news got a chance to check the netbook out at Computex last week, and while it doesn't look all that exciting on paper (1024 x 600 pixel display, Intel Atom N270 processor, 2 USB ports, 1.8 inch hard drive), it looks awfully nice on video....

ECS to introduce latest netbooks at Computex

Brad Linder — Mon, 17 May 2010 16:31:26 +0000

ECS is a company that doesn't generally produce netbooks and notebooks that are sold under its own brand name. Instead the company's products tend to be rebadged and sold under different brand names, like the Averatec Buddy. According to DigiTimes, ECS will be showing off a new crop of notebooks at Computex in Taiwan next month. Odds are you'll never...

ECS to unveil Pine Trail netbook model

Brad Linder — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 21:44:46 +0000

Elite Computer Systems is one of those companies you don't hear too much about because they make systems that are typically rebadged and sold under different brand names. But the company's G10IL netbook was a fairly popular design last year, and DigiTimes reports that the company shipped 1.6 million netbooks in 2009. Now ECS is getting ready to show off...

Is Shuttle working on a netbook?

Brad Linder — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 14:42:43 +0000

Shuttle makes small computers. But up until now, most of those computers have been desktop PCs crammed into tiny boxes, barebones PC kits, and all-in-one computers. Now DigiTimes is suggesting that the company may be looking to get into the notebook business. According to DigiTimes, Shuttle is trying to recruit 40 folks from ECS, a notebook maker that has put...

ECS has shipped 1.6 million netbooks so far in 2009

Brad Linder — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 16:56:41 +0000

ECS may not exactly be a household name. But the company makes some pretty decent netbooks, a number of which feature integrated 3G modules. Of course, in many parts of the world you'd be hard pressed to find a netbook with the ECS label on it. Instead, you'll probably find a netbook like the G10IL rebranded and sold under another...
