ASUS shows off the lovely leather U2E laptop in Korea – WANT!
With any luck this leather laptop from ASUS will be a darn-sight cheaper than the $5,000 offering from Lenovo – I’m a vegetarian but even I can appreciate how gorgeous that dead cow is, reclining on the metal interior of the U2E, above.
Measuring 11″, it’s just launched in Korea, and features an energy-efficient LED backlit display (1366 x 768, if you must know), a 32GB solid-state drive, and an Intel Core 2 Duo U7600 processor. There’s a DVD-Super Multi…
Bestlink Alpha 400 – cheapest Eee-like PC yet?
Another cheap and cheerful Eee PC lookalike – except the Bestlink Alpha 400 is cheaper and more cheerful than the rest, coming in at the equivalent of £125 or even £90 if you buy in bulk…

Shiny Video Preview: Toshiba Portégé M800 laptop
Yesterday I got hands-on with the Portégé M800 laptop minutes after it was announced, and have to say I was really impressed with my first trial of it. With its white glossy casing, silver accents and white LED lights, you’d be forgiven for thinking it was an updated MacBook. But no – it runs Vista, and will…
Toshiba adds the limited edition Portégé M800 notebook to their collection
At a press launch in Paris this morning, Toshiba has given the masses a couple of new laptop models to gnaw their teeth over indecisively. The Portégé M800, pictured, is unlike their previous Portégé offering (the R500), as it’s finished in a pearl-white casing, with silver contrasts and white LEDs.
Measuring in at 13.3″, it will be released into the wild in Europe, the Middle East and Africa later this year, Q3 to be ‘precise’…
AMD to launch "Business Class" PC range, as it attempts to stop Intel taking over the world
AMD’s going down the whole making-a-PC road, it appears, announcing that it’s launching a complete “solution” aimed at business users.
The AMD “Business Class” PC will be licensed out and sold by partners like Dell, Acer, Fujitsu-Siemens and HP, and will come in a variety of Phenom and Athlon processor specs – plus it’ll support AMD-owned ATi graphics cards and also those of its DEADLY RIVAL Nvidia…
ASUS announces the bamboo Eco Books will launch in June, to the distress of pandas
Those attractive notebooks made from laminated bamboo look set to drop in June, according to a Chinese newspaper.
The reported price is NT$50,000, which converts to a concise $1,651.80, or £832. On the whole, ASUS notebooks tend to be quite affordable, so I would be very surprised if they charge the UK market over £1,000 for it. Their ‘Eco Book’ monikers…
Opinion: I really hope my laptop breaks soon…
Gary Cutlack writes…
Today might be the day my laptop finally breaks. I hope it does. The bloody thing cost me £850 about two and a half years ago but is now little more than an embarrassment and liability.
So if it breaks, I’ll be able to buy a new one for half that amount. One with three times the power and enough memory to open up several applications at the same time. And it’ll be smaller and lighter. Please break, laptop. I don’t love you any more…

The first hands-on video review has been uploaded to YouTube, with the Hong Kong based PC Market gang showing off just what the Eee PC 900 offers.
They put the Eee onto the catwalk and boy, can it strut. It plays various movie files with ease, browsing the net seems to be uncomplicated, and as for hardware…
