Don’t purchase a MacBook Pro this late 2013 season expecting to be able to repait it on your own any time in the near future – at least not by the judgement of the team at iFixit. They’ve made with the teardown of both the MacBook Pro 13-inch and 15-inch units from this most recent […]
When it comes to notebooks, there is this particular tension that computer manufacturers will have to work with – that is, to cram in a whole lot of power, or to make it as light as possible? It is a careful balancing act between the two, and Dell might have hit a winning formula with its latest Dell Precision M3800, which has been touted to be the thinnest as well as lightest 15” mobile workstation in the world. Said to merge both beautiful design in an ultra-thin form factor alongside delivering workstation-class performance, the Dell Precision M3800 is truly an uncompromising system for digital content creators as well as engineers who are on the lookout for portability, power and stylish design in order to match their image and environment.
Just how thin is the Dell Precision M3800? For starters, it will measure less than 0.75” thin (that would be the equivalent of 18mm), and will tip the scales at 4.15 pounds. Not only that, since it packs quite a punch, it obviously would need a cooling system that will match its performance, which is why there is dual-cooling. As for its battery, it is said to deliver up to 10 hours of battery life with NVIDIA Optimus technology for extended productivity, allowing users of the M3800 to edit video at a shoot, presenting CAD ideas to customers in style or rendering 3D animation and modeling on the road.
As for the operating system of choice, you can pick between Windows 8.1 Pro (64-Bit) or Windows 7 Professional (64-Bit), where it has also been loaded with up to 16GB of RAM, powered by a 4th-generation Intel Core i7-4702HQ 8 threaded quad-core processor with up to 3.2 GHz clock speeds. Graphics-wise, you get an NVIDIA Quadro K1100M GPU with 2GB of GDDR5 dedicated memory, and where storage is concerned, you would be spoiled for choice. The Dell Precision M3800 comes with the ability to hold up to two storage devices, with a maximum of 1.5TB of storage (HDD, SSHD, or SSD).
If you are interested in picking the Dell Precision M3800 up, it will be available worldwide this coming November 14 with a starting price of $1,799.

It’s all-change in Mac land, and after the MacBook Air got its Haswell refresh earlier this year – to great effect – it’s the turn of the MacBook Pro with Retina display to be brought up to speed. Apple’s pixel-dense desktop replacement was always a powerhorse, at least in 15-inch form, but now gets Intel […]
It would appear that the folks at LG have decided that their venture into the Google universe with Android was lucrative enough that they’ll be pushing in to the other quickly rising OS from the company: Chrome. Three trademarks have been filed for recently by LG, each of them appearing with the brand Chrome in […]
A plain old journal is not good enough for the video game fanatic. Especially after you have laid eyes on these amazing books. These mythical journals were inspired by the Legend of Zelda games and they get all of the details pitch perfect. Just look at that dyed leather and brass.
These journals come from MilleCuirs who has an amazing eye for design. The leather is embossed with the Hylian crest, and the Triforce symbol stands out in metal. The interior pages are even dyed by hand so they look aged and the interior covers are made from hand-marbled paper.
If you’re interested in having one made for yourself, head on over to MilleCuirs’ DeviantArt page for information on custom orders.
These are so awesome I wouldn’t want to write in mine. I’d just sit there and admire it.
