CE-Oh no he didn't! Part LX: NVIDIA calls Intel's single-chip Atom pricing "pretty unfair" {Engadget}
May 20th 2009 11:08PM Ok pay attention Jen-Hsun Huang, this ought to be easy enough for even you to understand. You threw the first punch. Remember the whole deal about SLI would not be allowed on Intel chipsets? Remember how folks called that unfair. And now we hear you whining. Whine away, tough guy. Hope you actually have someone in your company paid enough to listen to you. Because Intel told you it was going to make you eat that decision.
So grab a fork and some salt and pepper. Because it sure is going to be fun to watch you eat that hat.
EU expected to rule against Intel in AMD antitrust case: Microsoft points, afraid to laugh {Engadget}
May 12th 2009 12:41AM This money isn't going to AMD. And Microsoft's money isn't going to software developers either. This lines the EU's pockets so they can afford to sue the next US company. You don't see them lining up to sue Toyota, of Fujitsu, let alone, (oh no!) a EU company? They wouldn't dare levy this kind of fine against an EU company. They'd be thrown out of office, or the EU would collapse.
This is legal money making - that is not helping a single of the victim companies. The US needs to start dragging SAP and other EU companies into court and drag a few billion out of them and give the EU a taste of its own medicine. The cause may be just in some of these instances, but the execution is pure grand theft. And when AMD goes under, you'll ask yourself what happened to the hundreds of millions that Intel paid, and you'll find that in the huge houses and huge cars driven by the EU reps.
Grand theft...
Engadget's recession antidote: win a Klipsch HD Theater 500 sound system! {Engadget}

Dell previews new G-Series monitors {Engadget}
Jan 9th 2009 12:05AM 30" LED model please :)
Apple to add LED BLU displays to all MacBooks in 2009 says paper {Engadget}
May 21st 2008 10:17AM The fact that they have 17" models out with LED BLU's puts LG and Samsung to shame. No one has to wonder why it takes some competition to shake things up in the market.
Meanwhile where are these on Dell and HP models?
Google calls for FCC to force open access rules or block Verizon's 700MHz bid {Engadget}
May 6th 2008 10:27PM Sorry Google. You are plenty well off enough to have bid for the channel yourself if you wanted it. Instead you bid up the price in an attempt to pull a little corporate shenanigans.
I've got no sympathy for you. And given how you drove up the price on purpose, never intending to write a check yourself, no one else should have any sympathy either.
ASUS gets really official with 17-inch G70 gaming laptop {Engadget}
May 2nd 2008 8:38PM This is a shot right over the Dell 1730 and Alienware M17x bows. Things the Asus has that the others do not:
8ms screen
dual lamp screen (tired of stupid dim laptop screens I am!)
Normal, fast and "turbo" clockspeeds from the company that brought overclocking too the masses
Decent sound (Maybe it's like the Xonar DX and does EAX 5?)
Dual screens, main and aux data (though the 1730 has something similar)
The only thing that might have been better would be a high brightness LED backlit screen, but the above will do!
Western Digital launches world's fastest SATA disk: the 300GB VelociRaptor {Engadget}
Apr 21st 2008 9:38PM That heatsink makes it look like they were headed for a 15k drive.
Intel's quad-core QX9300 laptop CPU in Q3? {Engadget}
Mar 14th 2008 8:45PM Hopefully you can overclock at least 2 of the cores when you are plugged into the wall. This combined with 1066 DDR3 SOdimms should be quite a machine.
Dell's 24-inch 2408WFP monitor with DisplayPort (and everything else) now available {Engadget}
Jan 17th 2008 8:30AM Nice looking stats anyway. Input lag could still be a hanging issue (forgot what site out there was keeping running measurements on that).
What bothers me is the 400cm/m brightness is very good, but the 30" models can't match this and cost more...it makes the 30's overpriced, imo.
Good monitor to see some testing on.
