Announced in the US earlier in September this year, the MS236H has now arrived in Japan. The MS236H is an ultrathin (16.5 mm), glossy widescreen 23-inch LCD which weighs a nice 3.9 kg. Its got HD resolution (1920×1080), has a 250 cd/m2 brightness, a 2ms (GTG) response time, a 50000:1 active contrast ratio and offers both HDMI and DVI-HDCP.
We recently featured the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG in the new Gran Turismo 6, now we’ve got more pictures of this retro-style supercar.
Underneath the bonnet is a 6.2L V8 that is capable of delivering 563 horsepower (at 6,800 RPM) and 479 pound-feet of torque (at 4,750); 0-100 kmh (62 mph) takes place in 3.8 seconds and 200 kmh (124 mph) in around 11.8 seconds.
Dell’s Mini 9, one of the earliest models of netbooks available (sounds like its been ages since it launched, but actually not!) has been hacked into a tablet with a touchscreen and motion sensitive capabilities. It runs Windows 7 and not Mac OS X, sorry Mac fans as touchscreens and Leopard just don’t get along together. Check out the mod in the video below:
Not sure what you guys think, but I personally am not a fan of the new hinge Dell has given the new Adamo XPS. It’s mounted a quarter of the way up the lid, so when it opens, the metal-tipped keys are angled to (in theory) provide a more ergonomic typing position. Engadget has taken some first hands on photos of the new Adamo, a few of them can be found in the gallery below.
For iPhone and iPod Touch who jailbreak and use SSH to access their devices, the “Rickroll worm” or RickRoll SSH hack is something you definitely want to avoid if possible. The fact that attacks like these have been possible make you think that far more serious and malicious attacks can happen in the future. Check out the video below on how to take a few simple steps to protect your iPhone or iPod Touch from the RickRoll hack:
Think of it as Dell’s “Mac Mini”, and what you get is the Inspiron Zino HD. Very similar in size (7.8″ x 7.8″), the Inspiron Zino has been designed to be a convenient, fashionable, entertainment PC rather than the ultimate gaming system. As Windows 7 is now available, Dell has also updated the new Inspiron Zino HD to come with the new Microsoft OS as standard. As you can see there are ten colours to choose from, at least one of them will blend in nicely with the decor of your living room / bookself!
