Acer's aspirational laptops have a new Ethos to them now, and it clearly has something to do with entertainment. The newly revealed 18.4-inch 8943G sports a 1920 x 1080 resolution and a <em>true</em> 5.1 surround sound setup, meaning that somewhere within its shell reside five miniature speakers and a sub. Processor options range all the way up to the quad-core <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/21/intel-cores-1-73ghz-i7-820-qm-mobile-cpu-maneuvers-onto-test-be/">Core i7-820QM</a>, which offers 8MB of built-in cache and a 1.73GHz clock speed that cranks all the way to 3.06GHz when required. ATI Mobility Radeon <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/ati-radeon-hd-5850-provides-scorching-performance-for-a-relative/">HD 5850</a> graphics and up to 1.28TB of storage (2x 640GB) complete the overkill recipe. The 5943G is basically a scaled down version, offering as it does 1366 x 768 resolution across a 15.6-inch display, a 2.1 internal speaker arrangement, and a merely adequate 640GB storage maximum. The rest of the specs are shared, including a 4,800mAh battery, which should perish quicker than you can say "desktop replacement." Pricing and availability have not yet been announced.<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/acer-aspire-ethos/">Acer Aspire Ethos</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/acer-aspire-ethos/2832307/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/25mar10acer3543nnv_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/acer-aspire-ethos/2832310/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/25mar10acer34699_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/acer-aspire-ethos/2832311/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/25mar10acer3243422_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/acer-aspire-ethos/2832312/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/25mar10acerwergrgk9_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a></div><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/25/acer-launches-aspire-ethos-line-with-swanky-5943g-and-8943g-mode/">Acer launches Aspire Ethos line with swanky 5943G and 8943G models</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Thu, 25 Mar 2010 05:51:00 EST.

Fear not mobile workstation lovers, it may have taken HP a bit more time to refresh its 17-inch <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/hp-elitebook-8740w-specs-begin-to-take-shape-ati-firepro-m7820/">EliteBook 8740w</a>, but it's officially here now and ready to champ at the bit with a combo of cutting edge features / specs. We'll start with the externals first -- the 7.8-pound, magnesium-alloy chassis is covered in the same gunmetal finish as the other <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/hp-adds-elitebook-2540p-and-2740p-to-the-lineup-brings-the-powe/">recently-announced Elitebooks</a>, and the 17-inch HP Dreamcolor screen is nothing short of stunning. It has 64 times the colors of other displays and can be ordered with HP's Mobile Display Assistant color calibrator. Inside the workstation is rather frightful -- it can be configured with a choice of Intel Core i5 or i7 processors and [either] ATI 's newest FirePro M7820 or NVIDIA Quadro FX GPUs. While the 8740w starts at $1,999, the $3,899 spec'd version happens to be HP's most powerful mobile workstation <em>ever</em> with a quad-core Core i7 processor, 7,200rpm 320GB hard drive, and NVIDIA Quadtro FX 3800M graphics with 1GB of DDR3 RAM. We were told that the 8740w would be shipping in early April, but it appears that you can order them up right now at the source link. <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-press-shots/">HP EliteBook 8740w press shots</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-press-shots/2825483/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/pressshotshpelitebook8740gal01_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-press-shots/2825484/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/pressshotshpelitebook8740gal02_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-press-shots/2825485/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/pressshotshpelitebook8740gal03_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a></div> <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-hands-on/">HP EliteBook 8740w hands-on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-hands-on/2825498/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/hpelitebook8740gal04_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-hands-on/2825500/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/hpelitebook8740gal05_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-hands-on/2825495/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/hpelitebook8740gal01_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-hands-on/2825496/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/hpelitebook8740gal02_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/hp-elitebook-8740w-hands-on/2825497/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/03/hpelitebook8740gal03_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" /></a></div><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/24/hp-elitebook-8740w-pumped-up-with-intel-core-2010-cpus-ati-nv/">HP EliteBook 8740w pumped up with Intel Core 2010 CPUs, ATI / NVIDIA graphics</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Wed, 24 Mar 2010 00:01:00 EST.

Sony's illustrious <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/VAIOZ/">VAIO Z</a> may have a so-called "<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/sony-vaio-z-series-vpcz114gx-s-review/">Dynamic Hybrid Graphics System</a>," but NVIDIA's Optimus it is not. <i>Or is it</i>. <i>Notebook Review</i>'s own igorstef started digging deeper within the laptop's switchable GPU setup, and lo and behold, it sure looks as if <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Optimus/">Optimus</a> is underneath. He went through the painstaking process of installing a slew of new drivers and tweaking some code within select .inf files, and in the end he seemingly found a way to get Optimus drivers working on the new rig. Of course, the debate has been raging on for five pages now, and it still seems inconclusive as to what's really going on behind the scenes. In related news, ZoinksS2k seems to have discovered a way to get Windows 7's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/TRIM/">TRIM</a> feature working on his SSD-equipped VAIO Z, and if you're interested in doing some tinkering of your own in either case, you know where to dive in. <br />

Was Sony's last VAIO E laptop, the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/02/sony-busts-out-colorful-vaio-e-series-laptops/">blue one with a pink keyboard</a>, not garish enough for you? Maybe these new models will saturate your questionable color palette. The E series has gotten a bit smaller and also a bit bigger, adding 14- and 17-inch models to the lineup. The 14-inch, 1600 x 900 VPCEA1S1E models include Intel Core i3-330M processors at 2.13GHz, 4GB of DDR3 memory, 500GB disk drives, and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145 graphics. The 17-inch, 1920 x 1080 VPCEC1S1E moves up to Core i5-430M processors at 2.26GHz, 1TB of storage, Radeon HD 5650 graphics, and replaces the smaller unit's DVD player with a Blu-ray drive. All offer 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth, and HDMI output for your media entertainment. No word on price or availability, but we have confirmed you can get them in black if you're not feeling <em>quite</em> so colorful on a Monday.<br />

<a href="http://www.msi.com/index.php?news_no=986&#38;func=newsdesc">MSI</a> may still be struggling for respect here in America, but one thing's for sure: it's got you covered on all bases. From <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/20/msi-wind12-u230-unboxed-and-benchmarked-trounces-netbooks-of-ye/">netbooks</a> to <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/msi-announces-ge700-gaming-laptop-for-those-who-like-to-be-enter/">entertainment rigs</a> to this here business machine, MSI's got a lappie for just about every possible type of user. The understated 15.6-incher sports a fancy new Core i5 processor, the company's own ECO Engine (for saving power when you're not taxing the system), a battery good for eight hours, biometric fingerprint reader for keeping those top secret company documents under wraps and a multitouch trackpad to boot. Since it's meant for business, you'll only get an integrated graphics set, but you <em>will</em> find up to 4GB of DDR3 memory, a 1,366 x 768 resolution panel, a 250/320/500GB hard drive, SD / SDHC / MMC card reader, HDMI / VGA outputs, a pair of USB 2.0 sockets, eSATA, audio in / out, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1 and a 1.3 megapixel webcam. Per usual, MSI's not dishing details on pricing and availability, but we're sure it'll be ready for the taking here soon.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/22/msis-15-6-inch-p600-gives-a-core-i5-to-those-business-folks/">MSI's 15.6-inch P600 gives a Core i5 to those 'business folks'</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Mon, 22 Mar 2010 01:23:00 EST.

<div style="text-align: left">We knew it was only a matter of time before Lenovo finally started shipping the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/03/lenovo-intros-thinkpad-edge-x100e-ultraportable-and-other-think/">larger and more powerful relatives</a> of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/03/lenovo-thinkpad-edge-13-review/">ThinkPad Edge 13</a>. Available from retailers now and Lenovo's own webstore in early April, the 14- and 15-inch Edges have the same design as the Edge 13 -- including the same spill-resistant chiclet keyboard we adore -- but boast more muscle under the hood. While the $599 models pack Celeron processors, they can be configured to your heart's content with Core i3 or i5 CPUs, 5,400 / 7,200rpm drives, Blu-ray and mobile broadband options. And if having a red ThinkPad has always been a drunken fantasy of yours, the Edge 14 and 15 come in a glossy black or red, and a matte black option is there for the traditionalists. Wondering what the Edge 14 and 15 have to do with cupcakes? Apparently Lenovo sent the Edge 14 to a true small business owner -- Lev Ekster, founder of NYC's Cupcake Stop -- a few months ago, and he's been wearing out the AT&#38;T 3G ever since as he gets work done on the go. We've no icing for you, but you can salivate over the full press release after the break.</div><p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/lenovo-thinkpad-edge-14-and-15-shipping-to-small-businesses-cup/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 14 and 15 shipping to small businesses, cupcake lovers</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/19/lenovo-thinkpad-edge-14-and-15-shipping-to-small-businesses-cup/">Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 14 and 15 shipping to small businesses, cupcake lovers</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Fri, 19 Mar 2010 19:39:00 EST.

Well hello again, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/adamo+xps/">Dell Adamo XPS</a>. Though the incredibly thin and uniquely designed laptop <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/dell-adamo-xps-order-page-falls-off-dell-com-discontinued-for-l/">disappeared from Dell.com</a> last week and we received official comment that it was a "limited edition product with a finite number of systems available," the Adamo XPS has reappeared in its $2,000 glory on the company's site. According to Dell's blog, it was merely just a move to restock the inventory and direct customers to retailers that had fresh stock -- well why didn't you just say that Dell! And do not fear about the Adamo brand, Dell reports that all is well as it starts to apply the design to other lines, just as we saw yesterday with the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/17/dell-vostro-v13-review/">Vostro V13</a>. We're still a bit confused by the reappearance, but it sure is good to see you again, Adamo XPS. We wish you a long successful life with many <em>many</em> price drops.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/18/dell-adamo-xps-alive-and-kicking-back-for-order-on-dell-com/">Dell Adamo XPS alive and kicking, back for order on Dell.com</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Thu, 18 Mar 2010 13:39:00 EST.
