Nvidia’s Jen Hsun Huang ‘looking forward’ to day in court with Intel
March 9, 2010
You might have heard of the legal battle amidst Intel and Nvidia: one of the unresolved issues is the Front Side Bus (FSB) license for Core ix processors that would allow Nvidia to create chipsets compatible with these CPUs (a chipset integrates functions like USB, Networking... and could feature integrated graphics as well). According to Nvidia, the deal was that Intel could use some Nvidia patents, while Nvidia could manufacture chips compatible with Intel CPUs. Intel is said to be wanting to continue using Nvidia's patents in new products, but Nvidia could not create products compatible with Intel's new products - that brought the Nvidia chipset design activities to a halt. Jen Hsun Huang (Nvidia's CEO) believes that “that is unfair" and is positive that the court will side on Nvidia's side at the end of the year. In the meantime, Nvidia released its Next-Generation ION chip, which is not a chipset anymore but an efficient discrete GPU that is turned on only when essential to save capability. The switch is seamless, thanks to the Optimus technology. Check the complete video interview on Fortune.

Panasonic Let’s Note R9 high end notebook
February 11, 2010
Panasonic's Let's Note R9 notebook is a high end 10" model that sports a 1,024 x 768 resolution for its 10.4" display, powered by an Intel Core i7 processor that might just surprise citizens who would most probably mistake that for an Atom-powered netbook instead. Heck, even that processor can be overclocked to 2.13GHz using Intel’s Turbo boost technology. Tipping the scales at less than 2.1 pounds, its 3100mAh battery is capable of powering the Panasonic Let's Note R9 for up to 7.5 hours, although we're not too certain what kind of settings the R9 runs during examining. Other specifications include 2GB RAM, a 250GB hard drive, Wi-Fi connectivity, an SDHC memory card slot and Windows 7 Professional. It will reach in Japan first, retailing for a pip below $2,000 after conversion.
