This laptop is tough, but it also has great design features. The material texture is perfect, and the chassis feels balanced if you hold it in one hand. The hinge can do some acrobatics, letting the display turn a full 180 degrees from the closed position until the entire unit lies flat on your desk or table. Another nice touch is the red dot over the “i” in the “ThinkPad” logo. It’s an indicator light that can tell you if the system is asleep, or charging. … [Read more...] about Lenovo ThinkPad 13 Ultrabook review

Kia reportedly put in charge of developing Apple’s first car
Looking ahead, Kia — which introduced a new logo this month — plans to introduce no fewer than seven electric cars by 2027, including a stand-alone model tentatively due out in 2021. Most will be built on a highly modular platform that will also underpin several Hyundai models, like the production version of the 45 concept from 2019. While nothing is official yet, it’s not too far-fetched to speculate Apple’s car could be built on these bones, too. … [Read more...] about Kia reportedly put in charge of developing Apple’s first car

Logitech G600 MMO Review
Performance In action, the G600 proves itself as capable as we’d expect given the stature and track record of its manufacturer. The button array on the left is particularly interesting, shaped so you can generally feel your way around without taking your eyes from the screen. We found ourselves struggling to comfortably reach the back row of buttons, turning our thumb into a pretzel in the process.
