Intel Core Duo Thinkpad T60 Review

Intel Core Duo Thinkpad T60

The biggest feature of the Thinkpad T60 is the fact that it is one of Lenovo’s first Centrino Duo capable notebooks.? The sample we got was in fact a Centrino Duo system as it was equipped with an Intel 945GM chipset, 3945ABG wireless solution and an Intel Core Duo T2600 (2.16GHz) processor.? IBM does offer other versions of the T60 that use the Core Duo processor but don’t meet the requirements to be called a Centrino Duo as well.?

Basically the same as its predecessor T-series notebooks did. The T60 body is a rugged plastic that does not flex. The magnesium reinforced lid won’t flex and provides amazing protection for the screen. The keyboard does not flex — at all. The thick metal hinges that attach the screen are very rigid and ensure the screen does not wobble. The keyboard is spill proof and has two drain holes to make sure if you do happen to spill your morning Starbucks coffee, the liquid is carried away from sensitive components and out through the bottom of the notebook. The hard drive is shock mounted and the entire chassis is a newly designed magnesium “roll cage” (it offers 30% more protection that past T-series chassis), and even if your T60 is dropped and broken the Active Protection System (APS) will stop hard drive activity to prevent data loss. The double screen latch system locks securely to make sure the screen stays down when being carried around. In other words, there’s no shortcuts being used in build quality from past ThinkPad notebooks since the Lenovo takeover of IBM — only enhancements.

The inside meant that this computer had an Intel chip inside meaning better performance than those other people, way back in 1993, not that Intel focused on the insides of the computer. Watch it and this will actually be bad for them. All those people won’t even recognize the intel they knew with the new logo.

I admit it, I have no use for the Weener (Windows) keys. Its a pointless feature to have if you use other OSs or migrating AWAY from Windows. Its like Nvidia’s chipset firewall solution…Another pointless feature for “Windows Only” users. (Which causes more trouble than its really worth).

With Lenovo adopting all these “everyone else has it” features, its not the same ThinkPad anymore. They don’t stand out technologically, like they used to.

Granted, the fingerprint scanner and keyboard light is interesting, but that’s all there is. My oldR50 ThinkPad has a keyboard light as well. So I guess the only thing is the fingerprint scanner.

Like the ThinkPad Z61m, the ThinkPad T60 features a 15.4-inch wide-screen display with a 1,680×1,050 native resolution that affords a large amount of screen real estate (nearly 26 columns and 51 rows on the default Excel spreadsheet) but can make text appear small. Users who fall behind on their Vitamin A supplements can configure the T60 with a 1,280×800 resolution display. As with all ThinkPads, a reading light tucked into the bezel above the screen lets you illuminate the keyboard when working in dark environments. The T60 lacks the built-in Webcam found on the Z61m’s display bezel.

As for ThinkVantage, that is useful…To some extent.

I tried to “clean restore” WinXP from the hidden partition (as Windows requires a clean installation after 2 or more years of use), and I get a crapload of errors. The Trackpoint or Touchpad seem to be no longer detected, and so on. And other error messages. I couldn’t get past finishing the install. So I unhid that WinXP Partition, and formatted the sucker clean, gained 8GB back of HDD space. Which is enough for a quadriple boot…Win2k, Slackware, FreeBSD and Solaris. (And they all work fine with the Trackpoint/Touchpad).

In all Starting price is higher than comparable systems’; lacks a number of nonessential but fairly standard ports and connections. Sturdy, well-designed case; strong security features; full range of networking connections, including WWAN and Bluetooth; swappable internal bay; solid warranty terms and well-reputed support.

Of Things To Build A New Platform Nokia And Intel Push Open Source Networking Platform Meego

Of Things To Build A New Platform Nokia And Intel Push Open Source Networking Platform Meego

Of things to build a new platform Nokia and Intel push open source networking platform MeeGo

Today, Nokia announced that it would Maemo communication systems with Intel’s Moblin merged to enable the new name MeeGo, handed over to Linux Foundation for Management.

It can be said that this is a Linux operating system family of two Dell Inspiron 9300 Battery smart merger of Nokia’s Maemo is built on open source components of the desktop computer architecture platform, is a network system architecture to build an application and innovative technology.

MeeGo inherited separately terminal equipment to master the underlying architecture and the outstanding advantages of the two giants genes, the operating system integrates two of their respective Linux computing environment (Intel’s Moblin and Nokia Maemo), for a variety of computing devices hardware platform designed to including man-portable notebook computers, the Internet book, tablet PCs, multimedia phones, network TV and in-car infotainment systems, aiming at the challenges to steal the show in Google, Apple and other device platforms and operating systems.

Maemo community, according to Chairman of the Committee Valério introduced, MeeGo combines the advantages of both Maemo and Moblin is an open architecture for multi-processor platform, MeeGo retained the Moblin core operating system, and support a wide range of device types and a rich user experience , and combined with Maemo’s influence in the mobile industry, as well as software developers have been widely used framework for Qt applications and user interfaces. Developers can now write MeeGo with Qt Dell Inspiron 6400 Battery.

Technically speaking, MeeGo will drive future mobile Internet era. At the meeting, Nokia stressed: “The most important feature of the network platform is open source, open wide the door to welcome friends, so that more of the ISV, SI to obtain business opportunities.”

Indeed, MeeGo get to the large number of ISV, SI, as well as operators sought after, at present, the network platform, has been the concern of telecom operators Orange, Telecom Italia has also begun and Intel will jointly develop next-generation operating system, Internet and MeeGo Network TV services, also revealed that there are also MeeGo partners to develop support for e-government, e-health care, television commercial, home automation, remote education and remote video surveillance applications.

Structure from the MeeGo view map and related information, MeeGo is divided into three layers: the kernel from the Moblin-based OS base layer, MeeGo UI framework and other services in the middle layer, and the user experience for different devices reference design.

The application of MeeGo will leap, the original Moblin and Maemo applications can run on MeeGo, the nearly-based MeeGo Qt, Webkit development and application, a number of Runtime on top of the applications. At the same time, industry analysts say, from the perspective of the hardware chip, not only to support after the merger MeeGo chips based on Intel architecture (which is in the notebook, the Internet present, MID and other areas to be widely distributed application processor), also supports the ARM chip , while the ARM chips are widely used in smart phones. This will increase the MeeGo a unique appeal.

Obviously, MeeGo is to promote home, car, office and a variety of portable devices to seamlessly communicate and establish a platform for Dell Inspiron E1705 battery interconnection system, he can be applied to the Internet as well as the infrastructure platform. In addition, from the developer’s point of view, Maemo based on Linux, on the ISV, SI market in the future to open up infinite possibilities, “the use of a greater degree of freedom that can support the entire device.” Valério says.

Intel Server Chip Replaces The Economy, Worries The Pressure Is Still A Huge Breakthrough

Intel Server Chip Replaces The Economy, Worries The Pressure Is Still A Huge Breakthrough

Intel server chip replaces the economy, worries the pressure is still a huge breakthrough

With the Xeon 7500 series, the official release to the end of Dell Inspiron 500m battery 2010, Intel successfully completed, including single Clarkdale, dual Westmere-EP, multiple Nehalem-EX, as well as high-end multi-Tukwila Itanium included, from low to high-end server, a full line of new layout. Big success last year, the Nehalem micro-architecture to Intel’s confident, however, multiple applications for 7500 can realize its wish Xeon writing a brilliant year 5500, for now the time has yet to be verified.

Nehalem architecture big success

March 31, Intel launched Xeon 7500 (Nehalem-EX) family of server processors. Construction of the new server platform to a maximum of 256 two-way road from the server system, and using the previous generation Xeon 7400 series compared to the average performance improvements of up to 3 times.

According to Intel, Nehalem-EX The largest surprise is not just up to 3 times the performance, but reliability and scalability enhancements, these enhancements make Nehalem-EX will spawn a new 8-way and 8-way x86 server market over, and in the database, ERP and other key business areas and the impact of large-scale virtualization, integration, traditional RISC camp.

Intel’s Nehalem’s self-confidence is not without reason: Intel’s latest filing shows a Q4 2009 release, the quarter net profit of 23 billion U.S. dollars, up almost 9 times last year. And from fiscal 2009, although it has experienced economic turbulence, the overall sales decline compared to 2008, but the server processor business was thriving, with sales growth of 3.4%, operating profit increased 7.7%, of which, Nehalem micro-architecture to Dell Inspiron 9300 Battery growth in 5500 became the mainstay of support for this – as of last year, the Xeon 5500 is about 90% share of new products on the server market downturn played a positive role.

Is well known, published last year by the end of March of the Xeon 5500 is a dual system for the Nehalem platform, due to technical series of “revolutionary” innovation, so get this product has a number of intelligent features, such as in energy efficiency improve significantly, so that enterprises can quickly recover the investment, so that the data center more flexible and achieve business integration, lower total cost of ownership, have all contributed to rapidly seize the dual Xeon 5500 server market, and rapid completion of the to Xeon 5400 platform replacement.

Just released Xeon 5600 (Westmere-EP) will be the new Xeon 5500 successor, a series of new technologies will make Intel’s dominance in this market more stable, however, Intel’s larger plot – -4 Road and over the high-end market, Xeon 7500 can make their wish fulfilled, the current market view, there are still many uncertainties.

Market acceptance has yet to be tested

As mentioned earlier, unlike the Xeon 5600, Xeon 7500 is for multiple high-end systems, Intel’s goal is not only users from a previous generation of Xeon 7400 to the Xeon 7500 platform, the switch upgrade, a deeper In fact, the idea is to attract more users to migrate to x86 platform RISC directly with IBM, Sun and other vendors, such as competition for traditional minicomputer critical computing market. Therefore, Nehalem-EX is located in the server consolidation, virtualization, data processing is a huge demand for enterprise applications and high-performance technical computing environment, while attracting users to use RISC minicomputer moved to Xeon platforms.

Although Intel’s view, the Xeon 7500 has a x86 system, the highest level of RAS features, and with the minicomputer, mainframe, the gap has been small, but to convince the user and the completion of this work is not easy. One is the traditional minicomputer users, from Unix to x86 open platform, performance is often not their top priority, more of a minicomputer x86 servers can achieve the kind of stability and security; and the industry boss IBM carrying a new generation of its POWER7 workload optimization and integration platform, pre-emptive, and super performance, high scalability and superior return on investment and so on outstanding performance.

In addition, the technology Xeon 7500 Xeon 5500 was higher IBM ThinkPad T60 battery the threshold. For OEM manufacturers, the Xeon 5500 two-way mass can be done, but many roads Xeon 7500 must be attached for more applications and solutions. Because of its capabilities and market strategies of the different face Xeon 7500 given more choices, OEM manufacturers will face more difficult to promote. Further enlarge the sales channels, if the solution does not possess the necessary capacity, channel operators have to first learn how to sell, and sell it to this product.

Therefore, the success of Intel’s ability to break through, the pressure is still great.

HP Slate with Windows 7 operating system, the entry price of 549 U.S. dollars. This Tablet PC with 8.9 inches capacitive multi-touch screen with a resolution of 1024×600. Slate HP Intel Atom Z530 processor, clocked at 1.6GHz, in addition to integrated 32GB flash memory and 1GB memory. HP will also provide a storage capacity of 64GB of products, priced at 599.

The two versions of the HP Slate battery life is 5 hours, integrated SDHC slot, dual cameras, USB port, SIM card slot, and for power, audio and video output support HDMI connector.

HP does not believe that Apple’s iPhone OS operating system is a big selling point, but in fact may not be the case. Insiders pointed out that HP’s internal use of the Internet in this Slate level of hardware, using Windows 7 operating system, Hewlett-Packard to integrate these two noteworthy. Taking into account the iPad has enabled users have high expectations for Tablet PC, HP will face great challenges.

P4000 has three advantages: first, more storage virtualization engine, completely linear expansion. Utilization rate of the second space availability. The third is the new automation products, one sentence is a full-featured high availability multi-engine.

Fan always has been cited earlier is one example of the traditional relationship between the train and subway, the train has two locomotives, pulling a lot of cars behind, when the engine power was fixed after a good performance of the train on the fixed die, the decision completely on the engine. If you add only two cars behind the locomotive What is the result? This is a great waste of power, but the additional 20 cars on the Pao Deman had. But the subway is not the same, every subway train has a power system, in theory, no matter how many cars are the same, our P4000 and the subway is the same.

P4000 Unlike traditional arrays, including the cage, the Sony VGP-BPS5 battery, it is 2U of equipment, each system is a device, each node with the same subway car with all the things, which include the CPU, including the memory array card, it is are linear expansion. Add the two applications from the original three applications, storage resources not how to do? I would expand a P4000, the first three nodes running the original data will automatically balance to the fourth node, where all operations are automatic and require no background interference, which is automatically extended multi-linear engine equipment. When the current need to buy two two, when the future demand for increased storage on the plus three, four, existing networks need to make any changes to the Department, and the capacity expansion is not limited to, can expand up, It is no restriction on the expansion, which is multi-engine concept, each node expansion will increase the performance will not be subject to restrictions on capacity expansion, which is mentioned above the horizontal expansion typical example.

The second major feature is fully functional, if equipped with a conventional optical switch to a conventional fiber array, in addition to the array may be equipped with optical switches in addition, also need SAN management software, database software, Snapshot software. We all bought housing, in general the first set to buy a blank room, if 500,000 to buy a blank room, but you have to live in. There are many processes, first of all to buy furniture decoration to live in, you may buy the rough housing 50 million, to actually live in. may have more than one million. P4000 all software are inside, you just buy this one node, all common storage software is no longer spend money to buy a good custom, for example, like snapshots, data replication, thin provisioning, including network RAID are configuration inside do not need to spend money to buy another, no hidden consumption inside.

P4000 array card, CPU, memory are built inside, as long as the Ethernet switch connected to the OK, and does not require any additional lines, as long as a network cable to the Ethernet switch in on it, hardware is one step, you take it directly is fitting room, no additional overhead.

In addition we also sell a software alone is VSA, when the budget is not enough when you can use the resources of the original old, old PC server, the old blade to do the integration of storage. VSA from software to hardware to the software, we provide all hardware-based software application, so it is a full-featured software and hardware in place. Here we demonstrate for a DEMO, see our snapshot function.

This demonstrates the main points is to tell you the content, the first all functions are free, and the software is very simple. The second snapshot in any reserved space in the storage array in the other also will have no reserved space applications in any environment can be applied, for example I did a snapshot, replication is used to streamline the configuration of this concept, in any case do not need to reserve space, in the same grade in only P4000 can do, but it is a powerful built-in equipment. Snapshot own recovery is very fast, very simple to HP pavilion ze4400 Battery interface.

Intel senior vice president and general manager of ultra-portable business, Dell Latitude D610 battery said Anand Chandrasekher: “Intel has delivered the first batch of finished product, open the Intel architecture (IA) into the smartphone market to the door. Through the” Moorestown “, Intel is adjusting IA’s market gains, a large number of lower energy consumption, cost and space, in order to better meet the needs of portable device market. Because of our continuous efforts, Intel Atom processor in the continued significant reduction in energy consumption also continued to improve performance This also shows that hand-held mobile devices may be smaller, more powerful mobile computer. “

Low power consumption and industry-leading performance framework

The processor platform includes the Intel Atom processor Z6xx series (formerly known as “Lincroft” System on Chip (SoC), Intel Controller Hub MP20 (formerly known as “Langwell”) as well as special mixed-signal chips (MSIC), formerly known as “Briertown”.

Intel processing platform to re-design into a single SoC, including the Atom processor Z6XX, MP20 platform control hub and a dedicated mixed-signal chips. Atom processor Z6XX the 45 Nami Ling Dynamic ™ core with 3D graphics, video encoding and decoding, and integrated memory and display controller. MP20 platform control hub to support a series of system level functions and input and output control port. In addition, the special mixed-signal processing chip also set the power output management, charge management, analog and digital components in a.

Ling moving in the same processing platform based on the C6 model SoC designs, including a new ultra-low-power mode (S0i1 and S0i3), makes the system chip with 8 mW 5 and 100 micro-power consumption 5 Watt 2 files. Speaking from the platform level, Intel introduced a new micro-operation of energy management. This method and the operating conditions of the standby power consumption management, the use of model-based management to run through every aspect of the system. The software management technology is applicable throughout the island in the system chip and system voltage power lines in the active power consumption and clock gating. In addition, Intel used the new Hi-K 45-nm SoC process technology 2LP, used to support a series of high-voltage input and output ports with a number of transistors.

When the power management features and high performance required for the performance of Intel Burst Technology (Intel Burst Performance Technology), and high bandwidth needed for the Intel Core frequency bus mode (Bus Turbo Mode) combined will help a range of portable devices to achieve industry-leading performance and energy performance.

Intel Atom processor chief architect Belli Kuttanna said: “We designed the first generation was reduced by 10 times the thermal power Intel Atom processor, we constantly challenge ourselves to design that can be reduced by 50 times the processor power consumption platform. We are very pleased that we have exceeded expectations, constantly improve its performance, we have for our architects and designers are proud of, because they are constantly redefining the architecture found in Intel (IA) possibilities.

Intel, Qualcomm address both the impact of the mobile phone market is to continue low-key little knot stalemate

Intel, Qualcomm address both the impact of the mobile phone market is to continue low-key little knot stalemate

Intel, Qualcomm address both the impact of the mobile phone market is to continue low-key little knot stalemate

Qualcomm and Intel’s contest, if you still use Anchaoyongdong to describe Apple A1185 Battery last year, then this year, they have begun to enter the stalemate stage

Ago, Qualcomm has also from time to time to expose the year Intel will exit the mobile phone market, “scars”, but just today, a move that rival Qualcomm worldwide marketing and investor relations, senior vice president Bill @ Davidson has begun to face competition rival’s behavior. In his eyes, Intel in the mobile phone market have the opportunity to succeed, but as the chip maker Qualcomm, will not change the style, as always, will continue to stand behind the partnership.

To have long, short attack sub

Earlier this month, Intel released for smartphones and Tablet PC market, second-generation Atom processor, the standby power consumption reduced by 50 times, and standby time of up to 10 days, and to support 1080P full HD video, 3D graphics, multi-point video conferencing and audio functions.

In addition to improvement in technology, Intel partners range from traditional PC makers out into the mobile phone maker, Nokia, LG has established partnerships with Intel is behind the industry chain and the old partners Dell, Acer, etc. have also coveted on the mobile phone market long.

For Intel, aggressive demeanor, Bill @ Davidson believes that it is not surprising, because the mobile phone market is Intel’s coveted market. The face of rival Qualcomm, best thing to do is to play their expertise.

Bill @ Davidson reveals no kind of pain Intel: “Qualcomm chips advantages include power control and high integration, in particular, we integrate the chip inside the modem, while Intel is still not integrated into the chips go to the modem. “

Accumulated over the years in the wireless field, so that Qualcomm has a large team Dell Inspiron 6400 Battery of engineers, the best engineers have years of experience in this field, which in the long term would be the advantage of Qualcomm.

In addition, Qualcomm and the handset makers and operators have a good relationship, good partnerships and the depth of understanding of each other’s products need a lot of years to run, which is competing in a short time can not be compared .

PC lap challenge the unspoken rules

Qualcomm mobile ecosystem in the position where it is not able and Intel, but Intel’s stronghold in the – PC ecosystem, but also have different “hidden rules.”

Over the years, each PC vendor market activity, whether advertising or public relations, there is always a clear silhouette, that is Intel, Intel can do that realm, it is important to Intel is not a low-key company, and cooperation with partners are generous.

However, Qualcomm different.

The success of many mobile phone manufacturers, with Qualcomm technology licensing not unrelated, but did not stop Qualcomm from the front of these cell phone makers, with Bill @ Davidson’s words, “We are low key.” This low-key and the PC ecosystem in the high-profile stands in stark contrast.

When CNET reporter asked, “Do you want to continue to maintain high pass such a low-key posture”, Bill @ Daier Sen admits that this is his every day ask yourself the question, sometimes, he even asked myself five times a day.

QUALCOMM has its own difficulties: “be generous in marketing always need someone to foot the bill into Qualcomm’s business model, our marketing strategy decisions, which makes the cost of Qualcomm chips in the product accounts for less than significant other chip manufacturers accounted for in the proportion of PC. “

Qualcomm also has its own self-confidence: “When is the unknown number of new products, particularly the birth of the leading technology, of course, need to do some promotion for example, do we promote the Snapdragon and now this technology has been widely recognized as the market knowledge, but also in the industry such as high-pass concept to promote smart this time have also been some effort. Qualcomm will have a choice of the project to do some marketing, and now Qualcomm did not see it necessary. because every time a unique product or technology appears, spending a little more knowledge can do a very good effect. “

Therefore, Qualcomm did not want to play their own brand in front of the customer, but would rather do stand behind the unsung heroes. Qualcomm does not own the brand to do more business oriented, and do not spend a lot of money to promote their brand. More and more consumers buy high-pass customer product, Qualcomm will meet.

April 12, HP announced the completion of the total value of the 3Com Corporation 2.7 HP pavilion dv9000 Battery billion acquisition. HP said that the terms of the transaction has been both HP and 3Com Corporation Board of Directors approval. 3Com wholly owned subsidiary in China, China 3 Communications (H3C) also will be incorporated into HP system.

14, HP announced that former Hewlett-Packard China, Foo Piau Phang promoted to Senior Vice President and president of Hewlett-Packard Asia Pacific and Japan, took over the Asia-Pacific and Japan region. Foo continue to serve as president of HP China, until China Hewlett-Packard to find a new candidate for president.

15 pm, the trade rumors started to flow on the Internet: “the former president of Qualcomm Greater China, Meng will become president of Motorola China, Ruey-Bin Kao, president of Motorola China, the incumbent will serve as president of HP China, report to the Foo.”

In response, HP China, said spokesman Shen excited: “I have not heard any such news.” While Chen Lei, director of Motorola China public relations, said: “Motorola does not comment on such rumors Yi Gai.” China’s PR director Hou Mingjuan Qualcomm said: “The total for Bangladesh to seek new career opportunities from high-pass, for his future direction, Qualcomm did not know.”

Interesting things seem, but if rumors true that this is definitely one on PC, mobile phone and chip industry, ICT Industry Division earthquakes. The last time such a thing was similar in 2004, three major carriers number one rotation, Wang from China Unicom (600,050, stock it) went to China Mobile, Wang said China Mobile went from China Telecom, Chang Xiaobing electricity from China ( 600 795, share it) the letter went China Unicom (600050, stock it).

Meng quit for Motorola’s news and communications industry experts, Li Gang, said “In recent years, Motorola and Qualcomm Android mobile phone business in a very close co-operation, Meng quit Motorola seem to have ‘natural’. Meng separation After the phone had said it was not for me to rest, he said not to leave the communications industry, the next destination is also a major international companies, will be announced soon. “

It is worth noting, responsible for Motorola’s handset business Sanjay @ Jia (Sanjay Jha) is from the high-pass airborne. August 2008, when he was chief operating officer of Qualcomm’s Sanjay @ Jia airborne Motorola, as co-CEO and handset division of Motorola CEO. After taking office in Sanjay @ Jia, Motorola has introduced the Droid, Cliq and Backflip so well received Android phones using Qualcomm chips. Therefore view the two companies led to close co-operation may Meng joined Motorola.

Motorola rumored Meng quit in the same time, the industry also is rumored to Ruey Bin Kao, president of Motorola China, will switch to HP, as HP China president.

Motorola has been China’s ICT industry, “Whampoa Military Academy”, a recent well-known jump ship in November 2008, Microsoft announced the appointment of former Motorola senior vice president, Asia Pacific Simon Leung, president and chairman of China joined as senior vice president of Microsoft’s IBM ThinkPad T41 Battery global , Greater China chairman and CEO.

In this period, has a number of executives from Motorola Skip to other club. New post David Ho, president of Nokia China, he served as chairman of Nokia Siemens China, Tim Chen Microsoft after a first new post NBA China CEO, Greater China CEO of Philips tetrachloride to his new post, new post Karen Guo, AMD China president Yang Chao to his new post Dell’s consumer business in Greater China General Manager, Xiao-yang to his new post China’s mobile phone division, general manager of Samsung, LG Ren Weiguang his new post, general manager of China Mobile, as well as Conservative Demand dare Lu, Jin Chan, Ye friends ……

“If you can join Ruey Bin Kao, 3Com has just bought the HP, it is definitely a good thing.” A source close to Motorola China on Netease technology, “said Ruey Bin Kao, HP China, one more to both understand the China market, but also communications industry for many years experience in network and terminal operators at the helm, Ruey Bin Kao, is a very appropriate candidate for the. while it Ruey Bin Kao, HP China is definitely a new challenge, after all, he has been working with Motorola 17 years. “

There is no doubt that after the acquisition of 3Com, Hewlett-Packard as soon as possible to include PC and notebook computers, servers, routers, switches, data center and cloud computing business, including integration of multiple product lines.

And access to 3G in China after Lenovo, Dell, Acer, Asus and other old rivals are successively launched their own brand in China, mobile phones, Lenovo and Dell in particular with China Mobile also launched OPhone phone. For the long delay in entering the Dell Inspiron 8600 Battery Chinese mobile phone market HP, its mobile business in China certainly has been put on the agenda.

Dell Inspiron Mini 12 – Intel Atom Processor Netbook Review

Dell Inspiron Mini 12 – Intel Atom Processor Netbook Review

If compared with other netbook such as MSI Wind U100, for example, Dell Inspiron mini 12 really looks thin. The thick is less than 1 inch, precisely 0.9 inches. In fact, the size of screen and all of the body is about 2 inches more wide than Wind U100.

Yes, Dell Inspiron mini 12 showcase is 12-inch display screen, which is still rare compared with others netbook carried by other brands.

Despite similar body-thin like Apple MacBook Air, Dell Inspiron Mini 12 does feel strong. It feels comfortable. Indeed, Dell Inspiron Mini 12 have more wider size in average compared with others netbook and can causing not being easily inserted in the handbag.

From the completeness of the features, in fact mini-12 not far differents from others netbook by other brands. Like a modern netbook, 802.11g wireless functionality is supported, 12 inch display screen. RAM, for example, are still 1GB, but unfortunately you can not upgrading the RAM.

Display Screen

12-inch display screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels, of course, is the specialty of Dell Dell Inspiron Mini 12. Wide screen resolution make the use of the netbook more fun when you surf in the virtual world. Two web pages side by side can be opened and read it with quite comfortably. However, the letters look smaller, less suitable for those who have started to crash because of the vision on the old age.

Views on the screen looks very bright (too bright even on the maximum setting), and horizontal perspectives are good enough. Views can still see quite comfortable with the direction of the side. However, there are good idea to push back the screen so that the rebound effect is not felt, too.

At the top of the LCD screen, as usual, presented with a 1.3 megapixel Webcam.

Keyboard

With a more physical width compared with another netbook, not strange when the keyboard on mini 12 is also more relieved (92 percent of normal keyboard). The distance the button are wide so that makes you comfortable when typing.

Dell includes six function keys which is F11, F12, Home, Del, Insert, End which are placed on the top right side. In addition, there are 10 other function keys (F1 – F10), which also have their own features, such as Bluetooth and contrast. The Fn button is placed on the left side of the bottom..

Under the keyboard panel there are square touchpad which is also quite wide field, complete with left and right click. Touchpad is quite responsive. However, perhaps because of the wide size and the location that fit under the keyboard plus the wide of palmrest, sometimes we do not get the desired response from the touchpad which have quite fibrous surface because the cursor can move suddenly if you have small wrist.

The other different from the other vendors, Dell chose to put a speaker on the top of keyboard panel. Unfortunately, the quality of the sound is less strong despite already set up to maximum volume. However, for a netbook that is used personally and private, may have sufficient volume.

Another panel at a different location is the on / off. key When most vendors of netbook putting it on the right top side, not so with Dell. Dell prefer to put this very small on / off button on the left top side, abreast with speakers panel.

The Body

On the right side appears 3-in-1 card reader, a headphone jack, microphone jack, one USB port, and one LAN port.

The placement of the USB port are on the way back, this make less fun when you use the netbook on the knees (although this is usually not recommended because the netbook radiate enough heat) than if it is on the way forward as in most of other netbook.

On the left side there are two USB ports, VGA-out port, and for security lock (Kensington lock). Two USB ports are located in the middle of the unit, with the initial keyboard.

When you use the netbook the back of the bottom display which is close to the battery felt a bit hot. However, the keyboard and the touchpad are not affected and still comfortable to use. The bottom of the netbook was only slightly warm. Maybe because of the wide surface from this netbook plus the combination of low power processors successfully influence the spread of heat.

Processor

Mini 12 is not using the processor Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz like the others.

This netbook packaged with the Intel Atom 1.6 GHz clock speed, but in different type, that is, the Z530 (Silverthorne). This processor is designed for the smaller size devices depend with N270, the size of Silverthorne CPU nearly half (13 x 14 mm) and charged a lower consumption (2 watts vs. 2.5 watt owned N270).

Processor is a bit saggy used with Microsoft Vista as the bundle from Dell. Booting takes 1.5 – 2 seconds. The Intel GMA 500 chipset seems less suitable for gaming, including lightweight games. From the benchmark result of 3DMark 2003, the score is only 382 and failed to run 3DMark06.

The Battery

Mini 12 comes with a standard battery pack of Li-Ion 3-cell. Not included in the battery the capacity rating. However, according to Dell, the battery is able to stand up to 3 hours of use.

The claims may be true, but there are conditions that must be fulfilled. Netbook must be set first to lower the performance. This can be done easily arranged through the property of the Windows Power Options (Current Power Plan). If you want to survive your battery, you need to lower the performance by choosing Power Saver mode. However, if you need the performance you can choose High Performance that will drain the battery power more quickly or you can choose Balanced mode to balance the power of the battery and the performance.

Weight
Despite come with 12 inches wide-screen, this Mini 12 was not heavy. By default (plus 3-cell battery), the weight is only 1.268 kg. When the battery removed, the weight will be 1.1 kg.

Dell appears mature enough to prepare this netbook so comfortable and convenient to carry anywhere. For other than mild, the adapter that integrates with the cable was also light and pretty. This adapter looks similar to the phone adapter although quite large. Unfortunately only two legs, so you have to bring converter if you don’t have 2 legs.

The weight of the adapter are 178 grams. If you take all, (netbook + 3-cell battery + adapter + converter), Dell Inspiron Mini 12 was still light enough with a total weight of 1.862 kg.

The advantages Dell Inspire Mini 12 is Wide screen and keyboard; thin physical; SIMcard slot; light

The disadvantages Dell Inspire Mini 12 is Mono speaker; price; SIMcard slot on the back of the battery; minimal LED indicators; RAM can not be upgraded.

AMD introduces new notebook chips narrow the gap with Intel

AMD introduces new notebook chips narrow the gap with Intel

AMD introduces new notebook chips narrow the gap with Intel

According to media reports, AMD on Wednesday released a new mobile processor. AMD to Asus EEE PC battery try to reduce the price of notebook computers with Intel at the same time reducing power consumption and performance in the gap.

AMD announced new processors, including Phenom II of its new product line in the first 3 core and 4 core processors. AMD officials said that processors will reduce the power consumption while increasing application performance. Most mainstream notebook computers are configured to dual-core processor. Increase in core can lower prices for users to add more features.

AMD vice president of marketing, said Leslie Sobon, we can reach 799 U.S. dollars in the 3 core and 4 core processor price point. Have from 130 to 150 products around the new chip is being designed. This AMD is a record.

AMD introduced three kinds of four nuclear and two 3-core Phenom II processor running at speeds between 1.6Ghz to 2.3GHz, the power consumption of 25 watts to 45 watts. These chips will apply later this month to include Dell, HP and Lenovo notebook manufacturers, including computers.

AMD has not released the ultra-thin notebook computers low voltage Athlon II Neo and Turion II Neo processor. These processors run at 1.3GHz to 1.7GHz. These processors are single core and dual-core, power consumption of 12 watts to 15 watts.

AMD released the new chip is to improve its weak market position and win market share from Intel. According to market research firm IDC, said, AMD in the first quarter of 2010, the notebook computer market share has grown from 15% in the same period in 2009, fell to 12.1%. Intel’s first quarter market share of notebook computer chips from the same period last year, 84.3% to 87.8%.

Last month, AMD CEO Dirk Meyer acknowledged, AMD is not in the notebook PC market to show their strength. But, he added, AMD chips are on their own architectural improvements may increase the machine’s battery life and performance.

Intel last year to make faster and more energy-efficient chip production process of transition to the new, competitive advantage gained. Intel launched in January this year, a new Core Dell Inspiron 9300 battery i3, i5, and i7 dual-core notebook processors. Intel will soon release for the new ultra-thin notebook processor.

AMD’s Sobon said, AMD’s 3 core and 4 core processor offers buyers more choices. Antivirus and other computer tasks can be handed over to the third core, so that another separate cores for other applications.

Including HP and Dell, PC makers said that Intel’s chips have a longer battery life and better performance. The new chips, AMD offers better graphics performance and more cost-effective cost-effective. At the same time, these officials say PC makers, AMD and Intel in narrowing the gap has been a major step.

HP business notebook marketing manager Joanne Bugos said that AMD chips configured laptop prices generally than the Intel-based notebook computers are cheap about 15% to 20%.

Dell’s senior product manager for Lane McCullough said, AMD has begun to address its processor and graphics products, power and performance problems and is relying on its own strength to catch up Intel. PC makers like to see AMD’s future.

Comparison of AMD processors do not want Lenovo and Intel processors configured laptop battery life. Lenovo spokesman said in an e-mail, there are many different configuration variables in the battery life will play a major role. So, what kind of processor, Lenovo can not comment on the edge.

Otellini reason is, ARM technology patents alone, it is difficult to earn a lot of money, compared to Intel, is personally designed, manufactured and promote their platforms.

He was also the external display the name of Moorestown Atom platform. It is a dynamic structure of Ling’s latest processors, known as low power consumption, advanced technology, Fujitsu Lifebook s6000 Battery specifically for smart phones, tablet PCs and other handheld devices product design.

This is a product of Intel again to the challenge launched by British rival ARM Information. The latter date, remains the world’s largest supplier of mobile phone processor architecture.

ARM not fight back it. However, before the “First Financial Daily” repeatedly interviewed the company’s global CEO Daudet @ Brown, whenever we talk about Intel’s challenge, he chuckled that it is always looking for the wrong competitors. Because, ARM does not manufacture processors, but only authorized, Intel’s rival is a Freescale ARM partners, Qualcomm, Samsung and so on.

However, every time Germany @ Brown and spare those who laugh at ARM Intel. They say it’s processor is more suitable for PC or laptop, cost, power consumption and high, like smart phones and other mobile Internet terminal to catch up with ARM, there are many difficulties. Moreover, they also stressed that from time to time, the company is rapidly developing notebook market, it seems to imply that Intel not too.

A few days ago, ARM or even announced to enter the global server processor market news. Giant Intel apparently does not want the day an easy one.

Their commercial propaganda war, has not yet high score. Because, in addition to Intel’s product line by bridging the rendering of the mobile Internet to its own advantage, ARM products by Lenovo Group’s Mobile Internet outside the limelight, they are not really big step on each other sites.

Has been at war before they do. Otellini is not ironic, then ARM White said. As of now, Intel has the processor power approximation ARM. Because of its technical architecture to adapt to a more extensive software applications, ARM is facing an unprecedented challenge.

Headache for Intel is, ARM camp’s efforts to embrace open source linux, is it more downstream partners, ARM like a hen, the body is the large number of processors, the following program business. Even proud of apples, also its extremely popular in the iPad stuffed inside the ARM architecture. HP pavilion dv6000 Battery Of course, it is designed for Samsung authorized access to ARM processor program.

Moreover, because Intel’s strategy of change in the operating area, that is linux with Nokia to expand the market’s move has attracted Microsoft’s jealousy. The latter party is said to immediately open up the market for ARM. This will undoubtedly speed up the ARM products, the pace of expansion of notebook form.

However, the global processor camp, they are not the only two to compete. Intel, the same technology camp in AMD, is moving toward new products through the Internet extension of the expected advantages for graphics handheld audio-video network terminal in the market come out on top; Taiwan, VIA and the other recent high profile last year, though no longer, but still quite cottage market reputation. That war of words with Intel for years NVIDIA, the world is rapidly snatch MID market.

ARM camp huge natural alone. Almost all of the mobile phone processor companies such as Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Freescale, MediaTek, Spreadtrum, are its partners. Number size, and smart phone devices, carriers for many years the business model, is expected to bring good luck to them. Lenovo announced a few days before the new strategy can be described as the biggest victory of the camp.

However, the mobile Internet is still a chaotic market. In addition to selling similar model of cooperation has been outside, in the form of products, industry standards are far from uniform. The Internet, intelligent of this, smart phone, MID, e-books and the like, is still at a loss to the public. This will certainly also make processors continue to fall into a HP pavilion ze1000 Battery infighting among enterprises.

Microsoft, Intel to cede tablet market to Apple?

Microsoft, Intel to cede tablet market to Apple?

If the Apple tablet emerges as expected, this will be another big device market, following media players and smartphones, that the PC industry cedes to Apple.

Tablet: Is this the best WinTel-HP can do?

(Credit: Hewlett-Packard)

The writing is already on the wall already for Microsoft and smartphones, as spelled out in a previous post and as documented in shrinking market share numbers.

That’s not to say that Microsoft, Compaq (later Hewlett-Packard), and Intel didn’t have a chance. Remember the Compaq iPAQ PDA that debuted way back in 2000, powered by an Intel StrongARM chip running an early version of Windows Mobile?

That device had a lot of potential. The operative word being “potential.” An iPAQ could have been an iPhone. Or at the very least an iPod. And everybody could be drooling over iPAQs today instead of iPhones. Or using iPAQs instead of BlackBerrys. But of course things didn’t turn out that way.

Fast forward to 2010 (January?). Apple announces a tablet and suddenly everyone wants a tablet. (Or iSlate, if you will.)

Whatever happened to this Intel-powered Asus MID?

(Credit: Asus)

And what have Microsoft, Intel, HP, and others been offering in the interim years when they had every opportunity to come out with a blockbuster tablet? Unattractive, bulky, half-baked convertible laptops that, let’s put it this way, have not taken the PC market by storm.

So, here’s the ,000 question, uh, make that the billion question. Why can’t the combined R&D smarts, market clout, and overall technological resources of Microsoft-Intel-HP-Dell come up with a thin, sexy compelling tablet and/or media pad that will turn heads and convince the unbelievers (the average why-would-I-need-something-like-that consumer) that a tablet is a must-have product?

Answer: Because Apple will.

Here’s a not unlikely scenario. Apple brings out the tablet/media pad, wows U.S. (and world?) consumers, sells a ton of units, Microsoft-Intel-HP-Dell follow suit with slavishly copied devices that don’t sell very well comparatively.

iPAQ PDAs: Missed opportunity?

(Credit: Hewlett-Packard)

That’s how the market for successful newfangled devices works these days. Apple creates the market and everyone else follows in a panic.

Then there’s the Intel factor. Intel also wants to be a player in this space. But Intel and its coterie of PC makers can’t get off the traditional-design laptop gravy train. Plus, as formidable a chipmaker as Intel is, it is still behind the Qualcomms and Texas Instruments of the world in building the power-efficient system-on-a-chip silicon that goes into smartphones and will likely go into tablets.

So, here’s my question for Intel et al: How many people will be buying Netbooks or Intel-based MIDs (mobile Internet devices) in 2011 if Apple has a more compelling alternative? Answer: a lot less if the Apple tablet exists.

OLPC tablet concept: Can’t a PC maker do this?

(Credit: OLPC)

And add Asia-based device makers offering tablets using an Nvidia Tegra 2 chip to that. A number of these tablets are expected too in 2010. In fact, Nvidia is already doing what Intel should have finished doing a long time ago: make a competitive s

ystem-on-a-chip that powers small devices. Intel had the chance to make XScale (what StrongARM eventually became) into something big for small devices six years ago. But it didn’t. And now Intel is trying to reinvent the wheel by squeezing the upcoming “Moorestown” Atom chip into smartphones.

Intel, I’m sure you think Moorestown is a great idea, but it’s a little late. Apple beat you to it by about three years.
