Newer MBPs may contain faulty NVIDIA chips

Oct 10th 2008 10:49PM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

My MBP from June 2007 started having this problem shortly after the warranty expired. Here's a picture of the desktop doing a Picasso impersination:http://www.notebooks.com/2008/10/10/apple-to-replace-faulty-nvidia-gpus-in-macbook-pros/

Lexar rolls out 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB ExpressCard SSDs

I played with one of these for about a week and reviewed it here:

These things are pretty slow, but the form factor is much better than having a USB thumbdrive hanging off the side of your computer while you're on the move.

HP busts out Compaq 6515b and 6715b laptops for the suits

The price is right on these, but $649 will only get you a wimpy AMD Sempron proc. They've brought over some of the security features from last years high-end biz notebooks to this budget line.

Good to see Gateway's putting their Tablets on a diet. Their current line is reallllly bulky.

Swollen batteries affecting 17-inch MacBook Pros too?

It seems like a fair percentage of users are getting rapid replacements at Apple stores. This is yet another good reason for computer companies to have a brick and mortar store.

Camelbak teams with Skullcandy on speaker-packed Hellion hydration pack

Saw these bags at CES and they were pretty cool if you're a snowboarder or hiker that still wants to be connected to your gadgets. Here's a video of a Skullcandy rep showing off a similar model-

Toshiba's Portege R400 convertible goes on sale

Jan 29th 2007 11:10AM on Engadget

I checked out the R400 at CES and think the best feature is the wireless docking option. But when I played with it, the R400 didn't feel like a $3k+ machine. The live alerts LCD is really tiny, with room for only a few characters. There's a video demo of the R400 here: http://www.notebooks.com/?p=420

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
