A bunch of PC makers and retailers are running Presidents Day sales today which means that you can save money on some cheap, mid-range, and premium laptops, among other things. Unfortunately Lenovo’s $100 laptop is already sold out. But if you’ve got a little more money to spend, you can pick up an Asus 11.6 […]
Lilbits 350: TCL’s folding smartphone plans revealed (maybe)
If Chinese electronics company TCL may be better known in the US for its TVs than its smartphones, that’s because the company doesn’t use its own name on phones sold in the US. But if you buy a recent BlackBerry smartphone anywhere other than India, you’re probably using a device manufactured by TCL. The company […]
Lilbits 349: The 5G smartphones are coming
Mobile World Congress is a little more than a week away, and we’ll likely see new phones from companies including Samsung, Huawei, HMD (Nokia), and others, as well as other devices (Microsoft, for example, is expected to introduce its next-gen HoloLens mixed reality headset). It’s likely that we’ll also hear a lot about 5G. Next-gen […]
Windows Subsystem for Linux update will let you access Linux file from Windows
One of the most surprising things about Windows 10 is that you have the option of enabling a Windows Subsystem for Linux, installing a Linux distribution such as Ubuntu, and then running Linux commands in a Bash shell. The feature has been around in one form or another since early 2016, but Microsoft keeps fine-tuning […]
SPUDwrite is a DIY E Ink typewriter… with a printer… and an LCD display
Modern computers can do an awful lot of things. You can write a novel, or read one. You can listen to music, compose music, or create a music video. And you can waste countless hours watching cat videos on YouTube. All of which is to say that computers are amazing productivity tools… and time wasters. […]

Sheeva64 is an $89 tiny headless PC that plugs into an AC outlet
Plug Computers are tiny PCs that you could easily mistake for an AC power adapter, because they plug directly into a wall outlet and typically don’t include video output. Instead these small, low power, “headless” computers usually run some sort of Linux-based operating system allowing you to use the little PCs as file servers or […]
Daily Deals (2-15-2019)
A few days ago I noted that the 2.2 pound Asus E203MA laptop with an 11.6 inch display, an Intel Celeron N4000 Gemini Lake processor, 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage makes a halfway decent secondary computer if you can pick it up for a low enough price. At the time it was selling […]
Logitech’s newest webcam has a privacy shutter (or you could just unplug your old camera)
Logitech’s C920 line of webcams have been pretty popular for years thanks to a decent feature set and relatively affordable price tag. I picked one up about three years ago when I decided it was finally time I owned a camera that offered better voice and video camera than I could get using the built-in […]

The $400 Galaxy Tab S5e isn’t the only new Samsung tablet on the way. Samsung is also introducing a new tablet with somewhat more modest specs and a lower price tag — although it’s unclear exactly when and where you’ll be able to get your hands on one. Samsung’s Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019) features 10.1 […]
Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e coming soon for $400 and up (AMOLED display, octa-core CPU)

GPD MicroPC handheld computer preview
It’s been a good couple of years for handheld computer enthusiasts. Companies like GPD, One Netbook, and TopJoy have been cranking out Windows computers with screen sizes between 5.5 inches and 8 inches and for the most part each one seems better than the lat in one way or another. Now GPD’s fifth tiny Windows […]
