• ViewSonic launches Atom-based computing line – Engadget

    ViewSonic has just introduced a new computing line geared towards the netbook / nettop set. All three Atom-based machines sport Windows XP Home, a 1.6GHz processor, 1GB RAM and 160GB storage. VieBook is a 10.2-inch netbook with all the usual connectivity options and an MSRP of $429. The VPC100 ViePC is an all-in-one device, measuring a mere 35mm thin, with an 18.5-inch, 16:9 aspect ratio LCD screen and should be priced at $549. Rounding up the lineup, the LinkPC is a nettop, designed to be strapped to the back of any VESA compatible monitor, and has an MSRP of $399.

    Come again? I’m sorry, did you just say Viewsonic and Atom in the same sentence?

    Eh – and here I was, thinking Viewsonic made screens.

    By my standards, this just looks weird and awkward to type on!

  • SIM2 aims high with $58,000 Grand Cinema HT5000E DLP projector – Engadget

    SIM2 never fails to stun, and it’s proving yet again that it couldn’t care less about the global economic situation (or that it just aims at a class of people that are simply unaffected) with the Grand Cinema HT5000E. Said device was actually outed yesterday courtesy of an HDGiants pair-up, but today we’re being gifted with the official details. The three-chip DLP beamer includes a trio of 0.95-inch DarkChip4 DMDs, a 1,920 x 1,080 native resolution, six lens options, Ethernet jack for remote control and world-class color uniformity / edge-to-edge focus capabilities. Yeah, it’ll cost you more than most vehicles and even some diminutive homes at $57,995, but at least the white glove delivery service is included. A true bargain, let us tell you. Full release is after the break.

    …heh.

    The price is fearsome, though. 😮

    Contrary to what you know, the internet is NOT a series of tubes.

    The Internet - A Series of Tubes

    Heh – guys, this is the a large chunk of the TCE Computer Science curriculum in 8 minutes.

    Well worth the watch. Watch it already!

    Excellently presented, with beautiful animation, and a somewhat cool voice-over.
