Aimed at small and medium-sized businesses, the laptops focus on security, reliability and ease of use. Users can select between Intel 4410 and AMD 4415 CPUs. For operating systems, buyers can opt...
Microsoft on Wednesday unveiled a public beta version of Microsoft Exchange 2010. This next version of Microsoft's email server will ship later this year, Microsoft said. The new Exchange version is built around a hybrid design that will form the infrastructure for a hosted email service at home or ...
Last week, I wrote about the 3rd Rebirth of Computing. This change will lead to the potential for Google to be vastly more powerful than any company in the history of the world. Given the historical patterns associated with companies that get even a fraction of this power, current trends are frighte...
I spent much of last week attending an event put on by HP, Intel and BMW, which launched HP's new professional workstation line on top of the new Nehalem processors from Intel. This took place at DreamWorks, where we were treated to an early screening of the "Monsters vs. Aliens" movie. This last wa...
Dell on Wednesday announced a slew of products and services to underscore its thrust into the data center market. These include servers and workstations, lifecycle and system management software, storage, virtualization, and data center consulting services. It is offering 11th-generation PowerEdge s...
The U.S. stock market had a really happy week last week. The market was on a long rally, and a number of high-profile technology vendors made interesting moves. The first was the release of Dell's Adamo product -- the first laptop offering that really was rethought as more of an art project than a t...
Dell has unveiled its version of a high-end ultra-thin portable laptop -- the Adamo. The Adamo, which was derived from the Latin word meaning "to fall in love," will be the flagship product in a line that will focus on design aesthetics and personalization choices. Specs for the product include Inte...
Networking giant Cisco Systems unveiled a slew of new products and services Monday that promise to simplify, consolidate and lower the cost of running vast computer networks at large businesses. The new products and services fall under an initiative Cisco calls the "Unified Computing System," which ...
Last week, I got into an argument about whether Microsoft was using TomTom to go after Linux. I also attended several events where the massive costs of the AMD vs. Intel litigation were discussed. I got to thinking how both entities -- AMD and FLOSS -- are currently defined by the dominant company i...
It certainly meets the Tom Clancy High-Tech Battlefield Seal of Approval, but it also hopes to take advantage of new stimulus-package spending that should result in new construction projects nationwide. These are the potential markets Dell is targeting with its new XFR E6400 Latitude rugged laptop c...
One of the things that fascinates me is how large companies, when given an "in your face" example from a competitor, more often than not ignore it. For instance, Apple is one of the few companies that designs marketing into their products, out-executes the industry in marketing, and enjoys the highe...
Marvell has created a new Plug Computing initiative to help developers build high-performance, always-on, always-connected and environmentally friendly little computer devices that plug into electrical wall sockets and act like embedded or appliance computers in the home. The little plug-in computer...
I spent Thursday of last week at an event put on by A&R Edelman talking about the importance of trust, where they discussed their findings on a survey of around 4,000 companies. They concluded that that trust is directly tied to the market recovery and that tech companies were the most trusted.
It's hard not to look at the stimulus package announced last week and not be disappointed. About 35 percent of it is tax cuts that will be so small for the majority of us that it simply won't have an impact other than to put the country in deeper debt. Intel announced its own stimulus package in the...
They are the next ballyhooed storage technology: Solid state drives are faster and more energy efficient than their popular siblings, hard disk drives. Consequently, many vendors have been touting SSDs as potential replacements for HDDs in laptop systems. However, reports of the death of HDDs may be...
