That Was Fun, Done With The Lenovo Carbon X1, Back to GSD!

That Was Fun, Done With The Lenovo Carbon X1, Back to GSD!

By Adron Hall on October 22, 2013

Over the last couple of months I’ve been double laptoping it. I’ve had a Lenovo Carbon X1 with Windows 8 and Ubuntu dual boot configuration with 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD and i7 and I had a Mac Book Air (MBA) 8GB, 512GB SSD and i7 Proc. The MBA was my primary work machine with the […]

Lenovo X1 Carbon Touch :: Opening, Setup and Failure

Lenovo X1 Carbon Touch :: Opening, Setup and Failure

By Adron Hall on July 5, 2013

Yesterday I received my X1 Carbon Touch from Amazon. First part of this whole adventure is that I sent it to my old address in one part of town so that led to a little sleuth action to track it down. After a short bike ride up the street I arrived and the office staff …

Old meets new world: enterprise UX

By Martijn Linssen on December 28, 2010

A few days ago, I got a message from Derek Singleton of Software Advice telling me about a survey they’re conducting: Ten Consumer Web UI Themes We’d Like to See in Business Applications is what it is called Software Advice apparently is a company offering free advice for software buyers, and although I don’t have […]

The Laptop Deal of the Century

The Laptop Deal of the Century

By Zoli Erdos on January 18, 2010

Would you like a new laptop and a boatload of money with it?  According to DealNews you can now get a new Lenovo at 750% off. Let’s say the list price is $1,000, that means you can pick it up free and pocket $6,500.  Not a bad deal, IMHO. (Wonder when they’ll wake up and correct the […]

Bought a Netbook or Super-slim Notebook? The “Free” Windows 7 Upgrade May Cost You a Bunch.

Bought a Netbook or Super-slim Notebook? The “Free” Windows 7 Upgrade May Cost You a Bunch.

By Zoli Erdos on August 7, 2009

It’s back-to-school time, and there are some amazing bargains if you’re looking for new laptops: following Walmart, just about all major retailers offer at least one sub $300 model – a bit underpowered, if you ask me, but for $100 more you can get fairly powerful computers, still below the $500 treshold.   Netbooks are no […]

The New Lenovo: Nice Hardware, Dumb Support

The New Lenovo: Nice Hardware, Dumb Support

By Zoli Erdos on July 20, 2009

Lenovo, home of the (formerly IBM) Thinkpad’s is not exactly known as a price leader: those Thinkpads have a great reputation and a matching price-tag.  But times are changing, and Lenovo is becoming budget-friendly: the recently announced Ideapad U series, the G550, and the all-in-one Ideacentre are all “cool” computers with an attractive price.  For […]

The Elusive Windows 7 Upgrade…

The Elusive Windows 7 Upgrade…

By Zoli Erdos on July 15, 2009

Buyer beware: you may not get the free Windows 7 upgrade if you buy a Vista-based computer now.  The upgrade program is real, but you have to be careful with what you’re buying, especially now that back-to-school campaigns have started. 15.4” Lenovo with Intel Dual Core, 2GB memory ..etc for $399 sure sounds like a […]

Netbook or Notebook? It’s Not Only About Size.

Netbook or Notebook? It’s Not Only About Size.

By Zoli Erdos on October 31, 2008

Hardly a day goes by without another new Netbook announcement, at lower and lower prices.  The first baby eee PC by ASUS was toy-like ( I returned it after a day), but the current crop are quite usable mobile computing devices.  These new Netbooks are flying off the shelf, so much so that sometimes you […]
