| World's Smallest Vein Sensor Reads Veins for Secure Access to Laptops |

| Acer AC700-1099 Chromebook Review: Cut to the Bone |
| We have our heads in the clouds. Once a dream, cloud computing is now common and used to support everything from file sharing to email. Here at PC Perspective, for example, we often make use of Dropbox. Storing certain files "in the cloud" is much easier than directly emailing them to and fro. |

This Wi-Fi-only laptop is $80 cheaper than Samsung's while having similar features. |

| Chrome OS and Chromebooks explained |
| A little while back at Google I/O Google introduced the world to Chromebooks. Svelte machines that run Google's own OS, Chrome OS. Chrome OS is unlike any other OS that's hit the shelves. It's fast, lean, and easy to use. Chromebooks look to continue that theme. They are fast (relatively), lean, and easy to use. |

| I Tried to Love Samsung's Chromebook. I Failed |
| Last Thursday morning, as I packed for a three-day trip to San Diego for Comic-Con, I couldn't decide whether to take my trusty first-generation MacBook Air, or use the trip as an excuse to review Samsung's Series 5 Chromebook, which I'd just received. So I didn't decide--I took both. |

| Samsung Series 5 ChromeBook Review |
| The Samsung Series 5 ChromeBook is a brilliant concept that might one day replace traditional laptops, but it's just not the best solution for most people at this time. |
| July 27, 2011 |
| The first Chromebook Review: Samsung Series 5 |
| If you want a Windows laptop, get a Windows laptop. But, if you want an easy-to-use, Web-based laptop, consider getting a Chromebook. So long as you realize that the Samsung Series 5 and its brother from another company, the Acer Chromebook, is not a full-featured Windows or Linux notebook computer you'll be fine. |

|
| Amazon Product |
| Acer Iconia TFT |
| Unlike a lot of other unique proof-of-concept laptops, the Acer Iconia is fun to use and largely works as advertised. But it has a hard time answering the most frequent question we hear about it: why would anyone need a dual-touch-screen |

| Acer's Iconia laptop skips keys in favor of double touch screens |
| In this world of virtual this and virtual that, there comes a product that offers something really different than everybody else. The Iconia from Acer America is not a laptop nor is it a notebook. Acer is calling it a "touchbook" because it has no keyboard. The Iconia is a portable computer that open up like a clamshell-style notebook with a screen on the upper portion, but it also has another screen where the keyboard should be. That's right: It's a dual screen notebook. |

| Acer Timeline X 5830T |
| Acer has ploughed itself a nice furrow over the last few years, building nice-looking, well-made laptops. The 5830T might lack the instant recognition and wow-factor of the Apple MacBook Pro, but there's no arguing that it's a nice-looking system. |

| ASUS G74 Review: A Subtle Redesign |
| We've reviewed several gaming laptops here at PC Perspective, but strangely, we've usually reviewed systems with 15.6" displays or smaller. Although large by most any other measure, these laptops are actually small by the standards of gaming laptops. Many gamers prefer laptops with a display over 17 inches because the extra screen real estate results in a better gaming experience. |

| Asus G74SX-A2 |
| The Asus G74SX-A2 holds its own against top gaming laptops with its quad-core processor and Nvidia graphics, and its stealthy cooling system kicks in when those components get hot. |

| Asus G74SX-BBK7 |
| The Asus G74SX-BBK7's huge exterior speaks volumes: Intimidating to the casual consumer, but speaks to the gamer saying, "The bigger I am, the better I game. |

| October 24, 2011 |
| Asus' Republic of Gamers G74Sx 18.4" 3D laptop is for serious gamers |
| With its angular look inspired by U.S. Navy's Sea Shadow stealth ship, and a keyboard that dares to slope from 0.8" to 2.4" for a more ergonomic typing angle, the G74Sx simply commands attention. And that's before we have a look under its hood. |

| ASUS K53 Review: Mass Market Dual-Core Sandy Bridge |
| The last three years have been great for ultraportables and netbooks. Laptops with displays below fourteen inches in size have exploded in popularity thanks not only to Intel's Atom, but also a wide selection of Intel ultra-low voltage products. Many of the laptops that we've reviewed over the past year, such as the Lenovo IdeaPad U260 and the Alienware M11x, would have been impossible prior to the release of those processors. |

| ASUS N53S Core i7-2630QM Sandy Bridge 15-in Notebook Review |
| Laptops are compromises. Despite continuing reductions in processor power draw and the physical size of hardware, there are still trade-offs that must be made. Batteries can be made larger to provide better portability, but this increases weight and size. Laptops can be made smaller, but this can make the user interface uncomfortable, and limits the hardware inside. Powerful processors and GPUs can be stuffed inside, but this increases weight and cost while it reduces battery life. And the list goes on and on. |

| ASUS ROG Matrix GTX 580 Platinum 1.5GB Graphics Card Review - Best of the best? |
| I have got to be honest with you - most of the time getting me excited for graphics cards any more is a chore. Unless we are talking about a new architecture from NVIDIA or AMD, card vendors are hard pressed to the same attention from me they used to a couple of years ago when every card release was something to pay attention to. Over the next week or so though it turns out that ASUS and Gigabyte have a few noteworthy items definitely worth some grade-A analysis and reviewing starting with today's: the ASUS ROG Matrix GTX 580 beast. |

| AVADirect - Clevo |
| AVA Direct's Clevo X7200 Laptop Gets 24GB... of RAM |
| That amount of RAM is big even for enterprise-class multi-CPU servers. It's enabled using Crucial's 24GB SODIMM 1333MHz CL9 memory kit, which includes three 8GB modules, populating all three memory slots in the notebook. However, we think that 24GB is an over-kill for gaming and other daily uses, but it could be of help in some memory intensive engineering, design, or multimedia applications, or for virtualization for instance. |
| October 06, 2011 |
| AVADirect Clevo X7200 Full Review |
| What does a notebook need in order to claim the title of "world's fastest laptop"? The AVADirect Clevo X7200 steps up to the challenge with a six-core Intel Core i7-990X Extreme Edition processor, cutting-edge NVIDIA GeForce 580M graphics, 12GB of RAM and a blazing fast SSD. Will all that gaming performance keep your attention, or will this 13.5-pound notebook prove too much to bear? |

| Laptop Batteries That Don't Crap Out a Year Into Their Life |
| It's a common problem--your shiny new laptop isn't looking so shiny or new anymore, and what's that? The battery barely holds a charge now? Ugh. I'm skeptical of Leyden Energy's claims, but would give their batteries a shot. |
| May 23, 2011 |
| Laptop Batteries You Won't Have to Replace for at Least Three Years |
| Leyden Energy has announced a new lithium-ion laptop battery that is said to hold its full charge for at least three years and will be backed by a three-year warranty. This is great news (if the claims are true), since most laptop batteries really suck. |

The articles include a number of very clear photographs as well as component information. As for the vitals, this M14x R1 build has an Intel Core i7-2820QM processor (Sandy Bridge), 8GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce GT 555M graphics, 750GB drive, and a Cougar Point HM67 chipset. |

| Alienware M14x Review: The Best or Worst Portable Gaming Laptop? |
| The Alienware M14x is indeed "the most powerful 14-inch laptop in the universe" but that doesn't mean much when you can get a much better 15-inch or 17-inch gaming laptop for the same price. |
| November 9, 2011 |
| Alienware M14x specs leak, and M18x looks legit |
| Mounting evidence suggests that Alienware has three new gaming notebooks on the way. These would be the predictable release of the M11x R3 (the third edition of the M11x), a 14-inch M14x, and then the M18x, which would presumably have an 18-inch display. Over the past few weeks we've seen the rumor mill heat up, a full review of the M14x, and even leaks from Dell. And now we have even more on the M18x and the M14x, both from what appears to be an employee on Dell's own forums. |

A 1,920×1,080 resolution screen is an option, and the gaming laptop also features Klipsch premium speakers. While the M14x ships with Windows 7 Ultimate, the review highlights Alienware's AlienGUIse app, which allows users to customize the interface. |

| Alienware M14x Teardown: Wireless HDMI portends future without wires |
| The Alienware M14x isn't your average laptop. Th base model of this portable gaming powerhouse starts at $1,099 (US).

The machine measures 1.49" (H) x 13.27" (W) x 10.17" (D). It weighs a hefty (by laptop standards) 6.45 pounds. |

| Dell Alienware - M18x |
| Alienware goes massive with M18x gaming laptop behemoth |
| Alienware's working hard to fill out its gaming laptop lineup with options at every conceivable size. First, the M14x surfaced, and now it appears Dell's high-octane performance division is readying the M18x. |
| April 13, 2011 |
| Alienware M18x hinted at on Dell support page |
| Over at Dell's support site, the company has a list of Alienware laptops, with one surprise: the M18x. We've been hearing rumors for some time about Dell releasing an 18-inch gaming notebook, but so far nothing has come to pass. The 18.4-inch computer would, according to rumor, come in at a larger size than the M17x, instead of replacing it. |

| As expected, Dell has joined the ultrabook foray, announcing the XPS 13 at Consumer Electronics Show 2012. Thin and lights aren't new for Dell, but joining the announce-now-and-ship-later CES crowd is disappointing. As a build-to-order maker, Dell is known for shipping right away. If you want an XPS 13, however, the Round Rock, Texas PC maker will make you wait until the "end of February". |

| Dell XPS 14z Bests MacBook Pro in Thinness and Price |
| Like big brother Dell XPS 15z, the XPS 14z obviously takes much inspiration from Apple's sleek MacBook Pro--with a couple of notable differences. First, there's the larger 14-inch HD (1366 pixels by 768 pixels resolution) display within the 13-inch footprint. This is accomplished, as you can see, by the smaller bevels, so the screen is nearly edge-to-edge on the laptop. This gives you 10 percent more viewing area than typical 13-inch laptops. |

| Gateway NV77H05u |
| The Gateway NV77H05u budget laptop will get you through email, Web pages, and the occasional extraneous task, just so long as it isn't high-end gaming. But you're limiting yourself to a laptop with fewer features and less horsepower than the competition. |

| HP EliteBook 8460p Notebook Review |
| A few months ago we posted our review of the HP ProBook 6360b, the latest addition to HP's "b" series notebooks and their first in a 13.3" form factor. Today we'll be looking at another business-class notebook from HP, the EliteBook 8460p. As its name suggests, this system is a step above the standard business-minded 6360b and as such, it's billed as a Large Enterprise Business product. The "professional" EliteBook retails for about $300 more than the ProBook, but is that premium worthwhile? |
| October 07, 2011 |
| HP Elitebook 8560p |

| HP - Envy 14 |
| HP Envy 14 (Sandy Bridge) |
| Other laptops may be slightly better performers, but good hardware choices, bundled software, and interesting features help the HP Envy 14 (Sandy Bridge) stand out. |
| August 5, 2011 |
| HP Envy 14 (Summer 2011) |
| The past couple of generations of MacBook Pro and MacBook Air laptops from Apple have focused on improving the internal components while keeping the high-design exterior largely the same. Hewlett-Packard is taking a similar path with its Envy line of laptops (which not coincidentally also start at $999). The 2011 version of the 14-inch Envy 14 trades up to a second-generation Intel Core i5 processor and adds USB 3.0 and an improved touch pad, built around Synaptics' ImagePad technology. |

| HP Envy 14 Beats Edition Gets Sandy Bridge Processor Refresh |
| The HP Envy 14 got PCWorld's highest recommendation and was, in fact, the laptop our laptop editor Jason Cross said he'd select for himself. The refreshed HP Envy 14 Beats Edition retains the same features as the previous model, except for the new 2.3 to 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5-2410M processor with AMD Radeon HD 6630 graphics (1 GB switchable graphics and up to 4GB total graphics memory). |
| June 28, 2011 |
| HP Envy 14 Beats Edition Laptop, $850 |
| HP's Envy 14 earned 4.5 out of 5 stars in our review, earning kudos for its "fantastic" performance and design. Our laptops expert, Jason Cross, called it a "joy to use." In fact, the HP Envy 14 Beats Edition is the laptop that he'd buy for himself (watch our video to learn why). The Beats Edition has the same specs and options as the Envy 14, but it has a sportier design and comes with a high-end headset. The Envy 14 Beats Edition usually starts at about $1100, but you can use coupon code NB6633 at the HP Home & Home Office store to knock $250 off the price. |

| HP Pavilion dv6 15.6in quad-core notebook |
| Choosing an HP notebook isn’t an easy task, not because they are hard to find - far from it - it’s just the bewildering choice of notebooks you can find in a range.

What that means in practical terms isn't entirely clear, as the B and G Essential laptops we've checked out use the same Intel Core i5 2410M processor and have the same amount of RAM and hard-drive capacity, they just have different screen sizes and some design differences. Here we'll focus on the Essential G570. |

| We've long waited for an affordable Windows alternative to the MacBook Air, and while Lenovo's new IdeaPad U300s looks great, it doesn't appear to be competing on price in the soon-to-be-crowded Ultrabook market. The hardware specs of this 13.3-inch laptop matches the MacBook Air fronts, is arguably thinner, and starts at a reasonable $1200 (about $100 less than the entry-level 13-inch Air). Though the price compares favorably to Apple's ultralight laptop, there are other manufacturers targeting sub-$1000 prices for some Ultrabook models this fall. |

| Lenovo IdeaPad U260 Core i3 12.5-in Notebook Review |
| From a distance, the Lenovo U260 would be easy to mistake for a tall, slender book.

Our review unit arrived in Mocha, and while I'd hesitate to call the laptop beautiful, it does have a minimalist allure. |

| Lenovo ThinkPad X1 leaks, takes second stab at MacBook Air |
| Lenovo's decision to back out on the ThinkPad X301 may have just been a temporary measure as a pair of Swiss stores have prematurely shown a sequel built more consciously to take on the new MacBook Air. Billed as the ThinkPad X1, it would switch to a 160GB solid-state state drive to slim down to about 0.85 inches at its thickest point. The system would try to bring over Lenovo's reputation for strong designs by making its 13.3-inch display cover out of jab- and scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass. |

| I still can't figure out why Microsoft and Intel are holding their annual developer confences at the same time in different parts of California. I chose to attend Microsoft's BUILD. But interesting stuff is being shown at Intel's IDF, too--including an upcoming processor that will supposedly be capable of powering a laptop for 24 hours on a charge, not to mention being able to run off solar power. |

| The worlds of computers and the environment usually do not mix, it's by inheritance given the power and materials needed to make modern day computers work as we want them to. Some have attempted to address environmental concerns before, such as laptops that were made out of wood instead of plastic, but how about a laptop that was powered solely by the sun? |

| During a recent shopping trip to Best Buy, we checked to see if any Brazos-based notebooks were available. We only found only two systems: Gateway's NV51B08u and Toshiba's Satellite CS655D. As we looked at the notebook specs, we realized that these notebooks were in a 15.6" form factor. The first shipping netbook that AMD claims under the Fusion banner is HP's Pavilion dm1z. (The Asus Eee PC 1215B is shipping now). When it comes to the price, at least all three notebooks are priced under the $500 mark AMD so badly wanted to conquer. |

For an additional $300, the NP900X3A-B02US bumps the SSD to 256GB. Finally, the NP900X3A-A05US comes with a Core i7-2617M, 6GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD for $2,049. |

| Samsung Series 9 Laptop Is Thinner, Lighter, and Officially More Expensive Than the MacBook Air |
| Samsung's Series 9 laptop is the first real dart thrown at the MacBook Air; it's lighter, it's thinner, it's faster, and it looks gorgeous. Looks like Samsung's not going to match Apple on price, though. The 13-inch Series 9 starts at $1,650, fifty bucks more than the most expensive Air and a full $350 more than Apple's base model. And while you can argue that Samsung's fit some better specs in, it's not clear that you'd really ever need more than what the MacBook Air offers outside of hardcore professional use--which it looks the Series 9 can't handle either. |

| Samsung - RC Series |
| Review: Samsung RC512-S01 |
| Samsung is not a name that the majority of people know, at least in regards to computers. When you think of Samsung, usually the first thing that pops into your head is "HDTV". They are primarily a electronics/appliance company, not a computer company. Yet if you go to Samsung's website, you see a whole lineup of notebooks (twenty-three to be exact). That does not include netbooks, or even their new Chromebook. In fact, some of the other notebook models still available and still supported are not even shown on their website. Samsung does not sell notebooks directly, rather it sells them through retailers (online and physical). |

| Samsung - RF Series |
| Samsung RF Series RF511, RF711 On Sale in the US |

| Samsung RF510-S01US |
| The Samsung RF510-S01US desktop replacement laptop has two things going for it: its speedy processor and powerful integrated Nvidia graphics chip. |
| March 4, 2011 |
| Samsung RF711 17.3in Core i7 laptop |
| It's not unusual for desktop replacements to have a bit of heft, but Samsung's RF711 positively throws caution to the wind. Tipping the scales at an obese 2.9kg and measuring 416mm across (almost one-and-a-half feet), it's only a laptop in the sense that the screen folds down to cover the keyboard when you've finished using it. In short, it looks like a prop from The Borrowers -- use it on your lap and you can expect to lose circulation to your feet. |
| July 11, 2011 |
| Samsung - RV Series |
| Samsung RV520-W01 |
| The Samsung RV520-W01 budget laptop delivered excellent battery life and a glut of new age wireless technologies, but it's lacking a bit in terms of design. |
| July 1, 2011 |
| Samsung RV720 17in Core i3 notebook |
| Desktop replacement laptops are a genre of portable computer apparently intent on chuntering on forever without ever truly succeeding or dying. By nature, they tend not to be petite, and Samsung's RV720 is no exception. |

| Toshiba Unveils Glasses-Free 3D Laptop |
| Toshiba has introduced the Qosmio F750, the world's first 3D laptop that doesn't require special glasses for watching movies or playing games in 3D. Like the Qosmio T851/D8CR model Toshiba announced in April, the Qosmio F750 can also do simultaneous 2D and glasses-free 3D on its 15.6-inch display. I haven't checked out the laptop myself, but early reviews indicate that Toshiba's glasses-free 3D actually works very well. |

| Toshiba's wipe-clean Satellite L735D laptop for kids |
| The L735D doesn't look overly impressive on the hardware front, but then that's probably not a top priority. An AMD E-300 1.3GHz processor is coupled with a 320GB hard drive and a 13.3-inch display (with the unusual resolution of 1300 x 708). There's also a built-in webcam and microphone for video chat. The amount of RAM isn't specified, but the L730, which this laptop is clearly based on, carries 4GB as standard so we hope it's the same in the L735D. |

| Toshiba - New Releases |
| New Toshibas: A More Powerful Portégé, Sleeker Full-Sized Laptops, and a Monitor to Go |
| When people ask me for recommendations about highly portable Windows notebooks, I'm quick to mention Toshiba's Portégé R700--a reasonably-priced three-pounder that has a 13.3? screen and even manages to pack a DVD burner into its trim, good-looking case. Today, Toshiba is announcing the R700's successor--as well as two larger notebooks and a unique portable display. The company recently gave me a preview of its new wares. |

This machine is geared for 3D enthusiasts who need a powerful yet portable computer that can handle all the latest PC games. |

| Toshiba Portege F Series |
| The Qosmio F750 Is the First Glasses-less 3D Laptop |
| Thank you, Toshiba, for keeping up with the 3D laptops. Now with the Qosmio F750, eschewing the glasses seems like the best idea for what's under the hood. But who wants to stare at a lenticular lens sheet all day? |

| Toshiba Portege L Series |
| Toshiba Satellite L755-S5214 |
| The Toshiba Satellite L755-S5214 will suffice for everyday tasks like word processing and surfing the Internet, and will do so without burning a hole in your pocket. But those looking for speed, power, and long battery life should look elsewhere. |

| Toshiba Satellite P745-S4320 |
| The Toshiba Satellite P745-S4320 has all the right features to suggest it's a great mainstream laptop, unless you're a no-frills user—then save yourself the $150. |

| Toshiba Satellite P775 17.3in Core i7 laptop |
| Toshiba's Satellite P775 is a good example. The key points I jotted down while putting it through its paces are not the 2GHz Intel Core i7-2630WM quad-core processor - many laptops have one of those - the 750GB hard drive - ditto - or the Blu-ray Disc drive - a less commonplace component, but not one to stir the passions, either - but its backlit-keyboard and its looks. |

| Toshiba Portege R835 Thin-and-Light Laptop Now on Sale |
| Currently, there are two offered versions of the 1 inch thin 3.2-pound laptop, that has a blue magnesium alloy chassis. Toshiba Direct sells the Portege R835-ST3N01 with the Intel Core i3-2310M CPU, while Newegg has in stock the R835-P56 with the Core i5-2410M chip.

| IDF2011: Toshiba Z830 Ultrabook Hands On Preview |
| Toshiba's Portégé Z830 ultrabook is among the first crop of notebooks coming to market built upon Intel's Ultrabook platform. Intel sees the ultrabook as the ideal computer that can be built using today's technologies. Netbooks showed that the public was interested in having a light, portable computer - but they were, by and large, anything but thin. |

| Toshiba Portege Z830 Ultrabook Unveiled |
| It seems like almost every notebook PC manufacturer has decided to announce an "Ultrabook" (a 13-inch thin and light multimedia laptop) this week. Toshiba America is the latest company to join the fray; Toshiba today unveiled the Portégé Z830 Series, the company's first Ultrabook using second Generation Intel Core processors. The new Z830 has a starting weight of less than 2.5 pounds and features a 0.63-inch (15.9 mm) profile ... making it about 20 percent lighter and 40 percent thinner than the previous Portégé R830 Series. |

| Toshiba Ships Qosmio F755-3D290 Glasses-Free 3D Laptop |
| Featuring a 15.6? full HD display with double parallax image technology, the notebook is able to simultaneously project two sets of images splitted between the left and right eyes in order to create a 3D effect. Meanwhile, a built-in webcam on the top of the display panel tracks the position of viewer's face and adjusts the projection accordingly. |

| Toshiba Qosmio T851 ready to display 2D, 3D content simultaneously |
| Toshiba has unveiled the Qosmio T851, a glasses-free 3D notebook. That's all well and nice, but what's really interesting is that this is being touted as the "world's first" laptop that can simultaneously display 2D and 3D content. |

| Toshiba Qosmio X Series |
| Toshiba Qosmio X770 17.3in 3D gaming notebook |
| When Toshiba UK announced the launch of the Qosmio X770 3D -- a new gaming laptop with stereoscopic 3D graphics and a 17.3in HD screen, I immediately thought: could this be an Alienware killer? Toshiba has been said to lag behind other manufacturers when it comes to high-end gaming laptops, but after spending time with the X770 I would suggest that's no longer the case. |

| Toshiba Qosmio X775-3DV78 |
| The Toshiba Qosmio X775-3DV78 is powerful gaming laptop that comes with 3D eyewear, but you're laying down a lot of money for a tacky design and less than an hour of battery life. |

| Toshiba Satellite C655D AMD E-240 Fusion APU Notebook Review |
| Aesthetically, the Toshiba Satellite C655 is the most generic laptop I've ever reviewed. It is made entirely out of matte black plastic, most of which has a textured design that makes the laptop particularly resistant to showing fingerprints, although fine grain dirt and lint can get caught in the many groves of the lid and palmrest. |

| Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5130 |
| The Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5130 laptop has all the limitations of a netbook, like weak processing power and few connectivity ports for peripherals, without the benefits of a netbook's portability and all-day battery life. |

The new Toshiba E305 is a Best Buy exclusive laptop with a 14-inch screen and a street price around $900. Packed with an Intel Core i5 "Sandy Bridge" processor, 4GB of RAM, a 500GB hard drive and a Blu-ray drive, is this the next great family PC? Keep reading to find out.

| What the Toshiba Satellite L745-S4210 budget laptop lacks in flare it makes up for with an up-to-date processor, great battery life, and affordable pricing. |

| Toshiba Satellite L745D-S4220 - Fusion E-350 1.6GHz - 14-inch TFT |
| Budget shoppers had best look elsewhere than the 14-inch Toshiba Satellite L745D-S4220. A low-end processor and middling speed aren't worth the $499 asking price, and we've seen many laptops in the same range that offer more. |
