US Modular Gives HDs High Tech Look

US Modular, a maker of data storage products, yesterday said they had come up with a new look for their Monster and Dragon Drive mini hard drives. The redesigned drives, sporting a high tech stainless steel look, will be available in December for prices ranging from $99 to $399.

The Framework Laptop is fully modular — and it looks incredible

Framework Laptop

Launched by the team that founded Oculus, the Framework Laptop takes an entirely new approach to an Ultrabook laptop.

On the surface, with its attractive machined aluminum shell and sleek design, the Framework Laptop looks similar to a MacBook Pro or a Surface Laptop. Underneath the surface, however, Framework's modular laptop concept brings a host of innovations to the notebook market, including the ability to upgrade many of the laptop's internal and external components, and not just the memory and storage.

Razer is no stranger no making offbeat products, whether it's the Project Breadmaker toaster or the Respawn energy drink.

But the company envisions Project Hazel entirely differently -- this smart mask is a serious attempt to do something positive in the world. Razer announced the project at CES 2021, alongside a number of more conventional product updates and releases.

Did Apple just give us a preview of the first Apple Silicon Mac?

Like a lot of people, I really want an Apple Silicon MacBook. Like, really want one. Watching Apple’s September event, I could not help but feel we were given a sneak peek of the company’s upcoming processors -- and it only served to whet my appetite more.

Rumors have long held that the first Apple Silicon Macs will use either this exact processor or an upscaled variant of it, marking the first time an iPad and a Mac have shared the same core engine. But if you think the Mac will suffer from using a tablet processor, you could not be more wrong.
