Gaming on Mac’s to get kick in the pants from…drivers?

A bit skeptical? So am I. I know tuned drivers can make a pretty big difference in certain situations, but there’s only so much a software developer can eek out of a mid-grade graphics card. But aften looking over a few comments by a claimed Valve employee, things could be at least getting a minor boost in the near term.

Chrome OS to support “legacy” desktop apps?

Chrome OS to support “legacy” desktop apps?

One of the big things about Chrome OS is that it is entirely web-based. It’s a novel idea that is certainly a minority in the traditional PC market. While world travelers and mobile hipsters may find the Chrome OS everything they needed and nothing more, I’ve seen some chatter that power users may feel that Chrome OS as it’s been shown so far, is a tad limiting.

I just as much as anyone love a well put together computer with beastly internals to match. But a $400 premium for Intel’s “latest” Core i5/i7 chips? Ya, no thank you. The image above was captured from Austrailian site, PC Authority. Whether the prices listed are USD or not I’m not sure, which could explain the price...

Dual 15.4″ GScreen Spacebook delayed to make room for dual 17″ screens.  Kitchen sink pushed back ’til Ver. 2.

It all but seemed like the dual 15.4″ screened GScreen Spacebook was never going to grace our presence. As the “end of 2009″ came and went, my hopes for this dual-screened beast were quickly evaporating. And then I woke up today to hear that they did in fact purposely delay the GScreen Spacebook.
