In the days since the US put Huawei on an “entities list” and prohibited US companies from doing business with the Chinese tech company, the implications have kept piling up. A number of companies based outside the US have ceased working with Huawei, including UK-based chip designer Arm since the company uses some technology developed in […]

Two of the biggest names in tech are planning to get into the game streaming business soon.

Laptops powered by Intel’s upcoming 10nm “Ice Lake” chips are expected to ship later this year. So maybe that’s why we’re seeing PC makers clearing out inventory of computers sporting previous-gen Whiskey Lake and Kaby Lake Refresh chips. Whatever the reason, I’m not complaining about the fact that Lenovo is selling a 2.4 pound laptop […]
Zotac teases ultra-thin ZBOX edge mini PCs ahead of Computex
Zotac plans to show off a number of small form-factor computers at Computex, including a bunch of models we first saw at CES in January and some brand new devices… like the ZBOX edge mini PC.

MSI P65 Creator Laptop gets a major spec bump
It’s been a little less than a year since MSI launched the P65 Creator Laptop, which is basically a high-end notebook with the sort of specs you’d expect from a gaming machine… but without the gaudy gaming notebook design. Now MSI is introducing an upgraded model with support for up to a 9th-gen Intel Core […]
Daily Deals (5-23-2019)
About twenty years ago I paid something like $20 or $30 for my first SD card. It was a 16MB card that could hold roughly four MP3 files. Today you can pick up a 200GB microSD card for $27, a 256GB card for $33 (with coupon: EMCTAVW47) or a 400GB card for $57. How things […]
B&N launches Nook Glowlight Plus with 7.8 inch display (and $200 price tag)
Most Nook and Kindle eReaders to ship in recent years have sported 6 inch E Ink displays, which means that if you really wanted a larger (or smaller) option, you had to look elsewhere. But B&N’s new NOOK GlowLight Plus sports a 7.8 inch E Ink display, the largest to date for any NOOK device. […]
Chuwi’s $300 GT Box mini PC is a cheaper, less powerful HiGame
Chinese computer maker Chuwi’s latest small form factor desktop is called the Chuwi GT Box, and it’s available from Gearbest for $300 for a model with an Intel Core i3-5005U Broadwell processor, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of solid state storage. The most remarkable thing about this little desktop (aside from its 4-year-old processor) is probably […]

Intel launches “Islay Canyon” NUC with Radeon graphics, Whiskey Lake CPU
As expected, Intel’s latest compact desktop computers combine a 15 watt Intel Whiskey Lake-U quad-core processor with AMD Radeon 540X graphics. Formerly code-named “Islay Canyon,” Intel is now calling the new kits “NUC 8 Mainstream-G Mini PCs.” The little computers measure just 4.6″ x 4.4″ x 2″ and support up to an Intel Core i7-8565U […]
Playdate is an unusual handheld game system… with a crank (and 12 games delivered one at a time))
Have you ever looked at a Game Boy and thought, that’s nice and all… but you know what would make it even cooler? A hand-crank that you could use as a game controller. Probably not…. but the folks behind the Playdate handheld game console decided that’s exactly what their upcoming gadget needed. The Playdate is expected […]
Razer is shutting down its game store for Ouya, Forge TV, and Mad Catz MOJO
A few years back companies thought the next big thing in console gaming was… small. And cheap. And Android-based. That future never really arrived. And now gaming hardware company Razer is putting another nail in the coffin and shutting down the services that would have powered the Ouya, Razer Forge TV, and Mad Catz MOJO… […]
