Gaming laptops tend to tread on thin ice, as they are normally large and bulky in order to accommodate the parts within which require more space than a “normal” working-class laptop. And as physics would dictate, the larger an object is, generally speaking, it would be heavier. Not only that, the performance that you are able to coax out of a gaming laptop would still fall short of your home’s souped up gaming rig most of the time. Well, MSI intends to turn things upside down with the introduction of the MSI GS70 gaming laptop.

For starters, the MSI GS70 gaming laptop is a definitely looker, coming in such a svelte body that you might mistake it for an Ultrabook of sorts. After all, we are talking about an ultra-thin and light brush aluminum chassis that measures less than an inch thin, tipping the scales at a respectable 5.7 lbs, clearly making this the thinnest and lightest 17” gaming laptop in the world. I guess MSI has succeeded in achieving the balance between portability and power on the go.

Just what kind of parts will you be able to find underneath the hood? For starters, the MSI GS70 would come with the latest 4th generation Intel Core i7 processor running proceedings from within, and it is accompanied by the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M. You will also find a Killer DoubleShot NIC, a SteelSeries full color backlit keyboard with Anti-Ghosting keys, a 17” Full HD anti-reflective display at 1,920 × 1,080 resolution, a 2.1 speaker system with integrated sub-woofer featuring Sound Blaster Cinema, 16GB RAM, a quartet of USB 3.0 ports, a trio of audio jacks, and a 720p HD webcam.

Not only that, the MSI GS70 prides itself in being the first dual fan laptop with a special thermal solution design which will pull heat from the top side of the laptop, dissipating it instead at a 45 degree upward angle to deliver superior performance and a cool gaming experience even if you have cranked all the detail levels in the game to the maximum to work the MSI GS70. The asking price would start from $1,799.99, with two configurations to choose from.

I can’t tell you how many times my family turns to me in order to fix their computer woes. It’s not that I’m a computer expert, it’s just that I know slightly more than any of them, so it looks like I’m a genius. I’m usually only successful about 50% of the time… after which I then quickly become the go-to girl for which replacement computer to buy. It sure would be nice to have a few tricks up my sleeve, or better yet, bestow upon them the ability to fix a few things themselves.

I am one who subscribes to the ideology that bigger is better – and when it comes to working with text and images, it makes perfect sense to have a really large display at your disposal. Your eyes will thank you for it in the long run, trust me. Sharp intends to up the ante when it comes to displays with the announcement of the 20” Full HD multi-touch monitor, where it carries the model number LL-S201A, and this bad boy has started to ship.

The Sharp LL-S201A is part of the Professional Touch Display product range, where you will find the power of the award-winning Sharp AQUOS BOARD Interactive Display System that has been crammed into a sleek, lightweight design. It is perfect for use in business, medical and education environments, and will also double up as a complement to the AQUOS BOARD display. In a nutshell, once you have warmed up to the LL-S201A, it ends up as an indispensable part of everyday communication, regardless of who is the user.

I suppose it will not take too long for your eyes to warm up to the 20” class touchscreen LCD panel that offers a whopping 1,920 x 1,080-pixel Full HD resolution with performance-enhancing UV2A technology, where it will do its bit to prevent light leakage so that you can experience truly bright whites and extremely deep blacks.

This 10-point multi-touch screen and Palm Cancellation Function will prioritize the touch of the pen compared to your finger, allowing you to write naturally and smoothly with the pen, even when your hand takes a break on the screen itself. Whenever it is hooked to a device that is powered by the Windows 8 operating system, the monitor will double up as an intuitive interface, and will also boast of a range of usage styles which will match the way you work. If you want it to stand, then a dedicated stand will prop the monitor at an easy-to-view 75 degree angle, making it ideal for use as a PC monitor or display. Should you prefer to exercise that writing arm of yours, then the Pen Writing Style with its Sharp Pen Software utility will allow one to enjoy natural handwriting functionality, similar to the AQUOS BOARD Interactive Display.

Of course, you can also write in Tablet Style. The Sharp LL-S201A can now be picked up from Sharp Authorized Pro AV dealers and resellers.

When it comes to your brand new notebook, just how far would you go to ensure that it looks and remains in pristine condition as far and as much as possible? Some of us would do things like purchase a protective sleeve for it, while others would go the extra mile and have one of those keyboard protectors, to make sure that the keyboard of the notebook itself will not be left “naked” to the threats of dust settling in between the keys, where that will definitely reduce the amount of performance you can enjoy from your notebook in due time. Well, here would be a solution for paranoid androids out there – a second generation of Moshi’s protective Codex case for the MacBook Air as well as Retina MacBook Pro.

This new version will boast of an aerodynamic profile alongside stylish new design details, and the Codex MacBook case plays nice with all models of Apple’s MacBook Air and Retina MacBook Pro laptops. Codex can be described as a modern, lightweight carrying case that has been specially tailored for the MacBook family, delivering not only protection but insulation as well from the daily wear and tear, while making sure you look good even as you work.

On the outside, the Moshi Codex will be made out of a kind of high-resilience polymeric hybrid material which delivers a sleek, brushed metal-like appearance. These next generation Codex cases have also been updated where they will include an attractive binding to deliver additional durability and style. Not only that, the Codex for MacBook Air also comes with a newly curved, aerodynamic aesthetic, making sure that the main reason you purchased your MacBook Air – for it to remain slim, will also be recognizable after slipping the Codex on. The Codex will be available in both Steel Black and Brushed Titanium for the 13” MacBook Air and 13” Retina MacBook Pro for $70 a pop, while it comes in Steel Black for the 11” MacBook Air at $65, with the 15” Retina MacBook Pro version going for $75.
