post from Ubergizmo on 13 July 2006 11:31:59 PM. © Ubergizmo

Bios has taken the Acer Aspire 9410 for a spin and are pretty pleased with the results. This 40cm x 30cm x 4cm notebook spearheads Acer's latest foray into the 17" notebook market. It comes with enough power underneath the hood to handle several tasks simultaneously without any performance drop, but is not powerful enough to be a true desktop replacement nor a gaming machine. The Intel Core Duo processor and 1GB of RAM is great for business and office applications and nothing else. Scouting around for the best price of the Aspire 9410 have yielded a £899 figure. More specs after the jump. • Genuine Windows® XP Home Edition
• Intel® Core™ Duo processor T2300E (1.66GHz, 2 MB L2 cache, 667 MHz FSB)
• 17" WXGA Acer CrystalBrite™ TFT LCD Display

HP lets you skin your computer

post from Shiny Shiny on 13 July 2006 09:38:00 PM. © Shiny Shiny

Shown here with pink argyle, but HP's custom skin service allows you to upload your own picture and plaster it on the faceplate or even the entire case for only $25 extra. I always wondered why Apple didn't do something like this when they were doing the Dalmation iMacs, and also predict shark-themed cases will be the top seller. [via Chip Chick] [GT]
