Hour’s Worth of New York Minutes Fit In One Internet Minute

Justin Davis — Wed, 20 Mar 2013 17:49:50 +0000

Have you visited Facebook in the last minute? So have 276,000 other people. How about watched a YouTube video? You joined an audience of 1.3 million. Tweeted about how much you have to get done today in so little time? So have 100,000 other people using Twitter. These numbers and more come form Intel, who […]

QUO Wants You To Back The Perfect Hackintosh

Mordechai Osdoby — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 18:34:09 +0000

Hackintoshing: The art of getting a non-Apple product to run Mac OS. It’s something of a pastime of mine. I used to have a Dell Mini 10v loaded with Mac OS 10.6 as my daily driver, and I squealed with joy when I got an ASUS Seashell netbook that wasn’t supposed to work to run. While I […]

Review: Does The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Ultrabook Live Up To Its Legacy?

Mordechai Osdoby — Thu, 25 Oct 2012 21:00:11 +0000

I’m often asked by friends what laptop they should buy. As my home system is designed around Apple devices, those friends are surprised when I almost always answer, “Lenovo.” My first laptop was a ThinkPad 380. In the almost 20 years that I’ve been using and repairing laptops, I’ve always found the Thinkpad line to […]

Lenovo Announces ThinkPad Tablet 2

Yoni Gross — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 17:39:38 +0000

Lenovo’s ThinkPad line has always been geared towards business users on the go. In the post-PC (PC plus?) era, that has meant adding a tablet to the ThinkPad family. The ThinkPad Tablet was a bit of an odd fit for the role, though. It ran Android, not Windows, which meant no access to the Office […]

Will Pricing Doom Windows 8 Tablets?

Mordechai Osdoby — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 22:09:34 +0000

It has been some time since the folks at Microsoft had as much buzz about something as they presently do about Windows 8. The still-unreleased touch-centric operating system feels like a potential winner. That is, unless someone does something bone stupid, like price the hardware for it way out of the range of the average […]

CES Day Two Recap: Tablets News (Mostly)

Reuven Shechter — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 22:18:03 +0000

Much like day one, day two of CES was also jam-packed with announcements. Tablet and smartphone news continued to come in at a breakneck pace. Intel, which has been teasing its line of mobile processors for quite a long time, is finally making the move to jump to the consumer market. The Lenovo K800 will […]

Video: HP’s Folio 13 Ultrabook Deserves Your Attention

Mordechai Osdoby — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 15:39:13 +0000

Intel’s new Ultrabook class initiative is heating up. If the last Consumer Electronics Show (CES) was all about tablets, expect this one to be all about Ultrabooks. We at Techcitement had a chance to mess around with several the other day and were insanely impressed. One of the more impressive models is the HP Folio […]

Tablet Thursday Digest: Injunction Junked

Mordechai Osdoby — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 18:30:05 +0000

Well, that was fast. The injunction against the sale of the Samsung Galaxy Tab has — albeit temporarily — been lifted in the European Union (a notable exception is Germany, where the ban is still in place). This news came Tuesday a day after several blogs, such as PC World, pointed out that it looked […]

Olde Tyme Techcitement: The Pentium 4 Processor Will Rock Your World

Matt Algren — Fri, 15 Jul 2011 15:00:38 +0000

Time for Olde Tyme Techcitement, when we take a look back at technology relics. It’s basically your grampa talking about the good old days, but sooner and totally more reasonable than dumb boring stories about how all this used to be farmland. November 20, 2000. We were still reeling from the devastation of Y2K, Creed’s […]
