Frightening though it may be, the fall semester is just around the corner. You know what that means? You’ll actually have to get up at — wait for it — an appointed time. Carissa, being the proactive student she is, posed this question:

By replacing the conventional levers that pull wound-steel cables through protective housings with solid-state switches and rubber-coated wires, there’s no chance for road gunk to clog things up and interfere with […]

We’ve seen a lot of phones with touchscreens. We’ve seen even more with physical buttons. What we haven’t seen is a phone with both a physical buttons and an OLED touchscreen that actually works. The Samsung U900 has both of these things plus a 5-megapixel digicam to boot.

So now that HP’s joined Dell in releasing information on which laptops have those defective NVIDIA GPUs, we can sort of piece together which chips are faulty — and just as had been rumored, it looks like basically every Geforce 8600M and 8400M chip is affected. That’s not good news for NVIDIA, which […]
