apple laptop black

Laptops not made by Apple and Sony either tend to either look blandly alike, or extravagantly silly. Korea’s Pixel Labs manages to take a little of the former attribute, add just a smidgin of the latter, and come out the other end with a gaming notebook that hides by day as a matte-black business model.

The PLK750 has a 17" display cut to 1440×900, a 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo CPU, a smoky 8700M GT graphics chipset, 4GB of RAM, WiFi and Bluetooth, S-Video out and a $2,500 price tag.

I think the A-Team-like stripe kind of gives it away. Also: 4GB is the new 2GB. Is that official now?



Magic Trackpad




Apple unveiled its new Magic Trackpad yesterday. The $70 accessory adds a trackpad that supports gestures to your desktop similar to the multi-touch gesture trackpads that are on MacBooks. Apple has announced a new update for the Magic Trackpad and trackpad on MacBook machines called update 1.0.
