Dell Dimension XPS & Inspiron XPS Maximum PC - November 2004

[brightsuzaku]

Oh, thank goodness there are NUMEROUS guides about how to open the case of a Dell Dimension XPS T600, lmao.

Pictured below, sitting in front of my short bookshelf, is the beige (probably once-gray-colored) tower of a Dell Dimension XPS T600 with microphone attachment. To viewer's the left of the computer, is the boxy subwoofer that also was part. Of this system!

Yes, this computer is from like, 1999, and first came with Windows 98. I think we upgraded to XP before we bought the other computer in the early 2000s....

I actually have everything but the long-dead CRT monitor that was part of this computer system. That CRT I know was discarded years ago. I remember that the display was dying (the picture was shrinking and warping), so we didn't keep it. Anyway, I have this computer's keyboard and stereo speakers in my trunk. I think possibly everything but the mouse!

Do you realize how tempted I am to figure out how to re-use that case, which is assuredly a terrible idea, anyway?

In dedication to my hero Stephen Hillenburg, I would like to show you the sketch that is going to start my series, "Propeller Clouds: Cryptics of the Forgotten Disk", a series on a man named Jamie, a man in great misfortune. We will follow him, his journal entries, and the things he can scrounge up for us to see from his Dell Dimension XPS R450, a computer holding both mysterious, and long-lost secrets.

Here are two of the characters in the show found on the disc, Miss Krabs, and Eugene (married).

Dell Revamps XPS 15 And Brings Again XPS 17

The XPS lineup from Dell has been a resounding success and was the first laptop to feature the ultra-thin bezels that have defined the modern laptop. For 2020, Dell is refreshing the XPS 15 with an all-new design and bringing back the XPS 17 after almost ten years. Both look to set the bar that other manufacturers will try to attain. And thanks to the thin display bezels, both laptops are much smaller than their names would imply. Dell XPS Models Model XPS 15 XPS 17 CPU Intel Core i5-10300H 4C/8T 4.5 GHz Intel Core i7-10750H 6C/12T 5.0 GHz Intel Core i7-10875H 8C/16T 5.1 GHz Intel Core i9-10885H 8C/16T 5.3 GHz GPU NVIDIA GTX 1650 Ti 4GB NVIDIA GTX 1650Ti 4GB NVIDIA RTX 2060 6GB RAM 8-64 GB DDR4-2933 (2 SO-DIMM) Storage 256 GB to 2 TB PCIe SSD Display 15.6-inch 1920x1200 60 Hz 500 nits 1650:1 contrast sRGB 3840x2400 60 Hz Touch 500 nits 1600:1 contrast HDR 400 100% Adobe RBG 94% P3 17.3-inch 1920x1200 60 Hz 500 nits 1650:1 contrast sRGB 3840x2400 60 Hz Touch 500 nits 1600:1 contrast HDR 400 100% Adobe RBG 94% P3 Audio Waves Maxx Audio Waves Nx 3D Audio Quad-Speaker 1.5W x 2 Tweeter 2.5W x 2 Woofer Ports 2 x USB-C Thunderbolt 3 1 x USB Type-C 3.1 SD Card Reader 4 x Thunderbolt 3 SD Card Slot Networking Killer Wi-Fi 6 AX1650 Battery 56 Wh / 86 Wh USB Type-C 90W to 130W charger 56 Wh / 97 Wh USB Type-C 90W to 130W charger Dimensions 345 x 230 x 18 mm 13.57 x 9.06 x 0.71 inches 374 x 248 x 19.5 mm 14.74 x 9.76 x 0.77 inches Weight 1.83 to 2.05 kg 4 to 4.5 lbs 2.11 to 2.51 kg 4.65 to 5.53 lbs Starting Price USD $1,299.99 $1,499.99 XPS 15

Dell’s XPS 15 has been the workhorse of their lineup, offering significantly more CPU and GPU performance than the XPS 13 thanks to 45-Watt CPUs and powerful discrete GPUs. Dell’s redesign adds new options for the CPU and GPU, and updates the design to their new take on the XPS, featuring the same InfinityEdge display, but now in a taller 16:10 aspect ratio which matches the already updated XPS 13. Powering the new XPS is Intel’s new Comet Lake H-Series, with a 45 Watt TDP. Dell is offering Core i5, i7, and i9 models. On the GPU side, Dell is now offering the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Ti 4BG model, which is in-line with how NVIDIA has revamped their mobile GPU lineup for the year. Customers will be able to add up to 64 GB of DDR4-2933 RAM as well, thanks to the two SO-DIMM slots, and storage options are all PCIe SSDs from 256 GB to 2 TB. Dell is also adding a brand-new cooling system, with a vapor-chamber cooling system and increased airflow. Any additional cooling will be welcome in a system that is as thin and light as the XPS line is. One of the hallmarks of the XPS lineup is the InfinityEdge display, and for 2020’s redesign Dell has created a laptop with a 92.9% screen-to-body ratio, while still managing to fit a 720p webcam and dual microphones in the top bezel. Display options on the XPS 15 are familiar, but thanks to the 16:10 aspect ratio, should be more usable for creating and working. The base display option is a 1920x1200 100% sRGB IPS panel with a 1650:1 contrast ratio and 500 nits of brightness. If you need more, Dell also offers a 3840x2400 touch display with HDR 400, 100% Adobe RGB gamut coverage, and 94% P3 Gamut.

Battery life estimates from Dell are somewhat insane. The optional 86 Wh battery can provide up to 25 hours of battery life with the lower resolution display, which should mean even the UHD display option should offer all-day battery life. Dell has also added 3D sound with Waves Nx 3D Audio, with tuned speakers, or Waves NX headphone tracking to adjust the direction of sound to suit your head movement. Dell has moved entirely to USB-C for this generation, with two Thunderbolt 3 ports and one USB only, and Dell includes several USB-C adapters. The new XPS 15 starts at $1299.99 and availability will be this week. XPS 17

After almost ten years away, Dell is bringing back the XPS 17, thanks to customer demand for larger displays. But thanks to the InfinityEdge display, the new XPS 17 is very compact, with Dell stating it is smaller than 48% of the 15-inch notebooks on the market today. Thin bezel designs look amazing, but the ability to pack a large screen into a much smaller chassis is one of the best reasons to opt for a notebook like this. The new XPS 17 is also Dell’s most powerful XPS ever, with the same CPU choices as the XPS 15, being Intel Comet Lake H Core i5, i7, and i9 models, but with an even larger GPU option. The XPS 17 ships with the same NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Ti as the XPS 15 in its base trim, but customers can also opt for the much more powerful NVIDIA RTX 2060 if they need even more compute. There are two SO-DIMM slots for up to 64 GB of RAM, and customers can purchase up to 2 TB of PCIe storage when configuring the device. On the display side, the new XPS 17 features the same 16:10 aspect ratio as the rest of the XPS lineup, with base trim offering a 1920x1200 60 Hz display with 500 nits of brightness and 1650:1 contrast for it’s sRGB gamut. Or, like the XPS 15, you can opt for a high DPI panel, with a 3840x2400 resolution and touch. The higher pixel count also includes HDR 400 certification and wide-color gamut support with 100% Adobe RGB and 94% P3.

The larger laptop gets an even larger battery, with either 56 Wh or 97 Wh options. Dell has also added more Thunderbolt 3, with four Thunderbolt 3 ports. The new XPS 17 looks to be a worthy addition to the lineup. It will be available this summer, with prices starting at $1499.99. Source: Dell Tweet PRINT THIS ARTICLE Read the full article

Lenovo Yoga 7i Review: Strong Performance 2-in-1 with Flip

With the new 16-inch Yoga 7i (16IML9), Lenovo keeps up its line of flexible, folding laptops. This model has excellent design and a low hardware count to fit a reasonable, sub-$1,000 beginning cost. Though it offers overall dependability for a range of computing tasks, it does make some concessions to reach that price point, not providing the most fantastic display or keyboard, which is one of Lenovo's best. Lenovo Yoga 7i Specifications Specification Details Class Convertible 2-in-1, Ultraportable Processor Intel Core i7-1255U RAM (as Tested) 16 GB Boot Drive Type SSD Boot Drive Capacity (as Tested) 512 GB Screen Size 14 inches Native Display Resolution 2240 by 1400 Touch Screen Yes Panel Technology IPS Variable Refresh Support None Screen Refresh Rate 60 Hz Graphics Processor Intel Iris Xe Graphics Wireless Networking Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2 Dimensions (HWD) 0.68 by 12.47 by 8.67 inches Weight 3.2 lbs Operating System Windows 11 Home Tested Battery Life (Hours) 13:59 Intel's 12th Gen, Lenovo's 7th Combining one of Intel's newest Core i5-1235U CPUs, 8GB of memory, a 512GB PCIe 4.0 solid-state drive, and what Lenovo refers to as a 2.2K (2,240-by-1,400-pixel IPS touch screen), the $849.99 base model of the Yoga 7i 14 includes Our $949.99 test device boosts the RAM limit to 16GB and raises the CPU to an Intel Core i7-1255U. Two more choices are a 1TB SSD and a more powerful Core i7-1260P CPU. Selling for $1,799.99, the premium model replaces the IPS panel with an OLED display with a sharper 2,880 by 1,800-pixel resolution and 400 rather than 300 nits of brightness. Lenovo Yoga 7i Pricing And Features Made with an Intel Core i7-1355U CPU, Intel Iris Xe integrated graphics, 16GB of RAM, 512GB of SSD storage, a 16-inch 1,920 x 1,200-pixel IPS glossy display, and Windows 11 Home, our Lenovo Yoga 7i model comes in Storm Grey. Available on Lenovo's website, it runs $999.99. Starting at $799, the basic edition of the Yoga 7i is much the same, but it has an Intel Core i5-1335U processor and 8GB of RAM. At $1 339, the most costly model has Windows 11 Pro, Intel Core i7-1360P processor, 16GB of RAM, 1TB of SSD storage, and a 16-inch 2,560 x 1,600-pixel IPS glossy display. Design of the Lenovo Yoga 7i Lenovo's Yoga series speaks to me in terms of style: emphasizing the texture of its aluminium body rather than flashy gimmicks, a brilliant colour choice that strikes the ideal balance between sleek and personal, and deft use of negative space creates a rare case whereby a laptop is called "minimalistic" rather than "boring." Apart from the dark grey lid, there is a brushed steel Lenovo logo at the top left and a reflective Yoga logo in beautiful iconic typography at the bottom right. Opening the lid exposes a simple deck featuring a complete keyboard, an off-centre trackpad, and another Lenovo logo at the bottom right. Besides the 360-degree hinges, the speaker system spans almost the entire top deck. At last, to the right of the trackpad sits a fingerprint scanner. The Yoga 7i is 14.3 x 9.8 x 0.7 inches and weighs 4.5 pounds. Though slightly lighter than the Dell Inspiron 16 2-in-1 (4.6 pounds, 14 x 9.9 x 0.6-0.7 inches), it is bigger and heavier than the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 (2.9 pounds, 11.5 x 7.9 x 0.3-0.7 inches). Though smaller, the 4-pound, 14 x 10 x 0.5-inch Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 is still somewhat similar in dimensions. Getting Along Well And Looking Good Our test unit's high-quality, 14-inch IPS panel does the job; the Yoga 7i is all about the screen, which serves a double purpose as both a laptop display and tablet touchscreen. Working best in tablet mode, the 16:10 aspect ratio of the screen is somewhat taller than the standard 16:9 ratio and calls for slightly less scrolling. Though we were disappointed that the pen isn't included, the glossy display offers a 10-point touch and active stylus functionality. Whether I was working on documents or watching films, the display was bright and clear, looking incredibly vibrant and pleasing while viewing HDR material on Netflix and other sources. Our objective tests supported Lenovo's assertions; the panel registered 100% of the sRGB colour gamut and 324 nits of peak brightness. Due to low-blue-light technology that reduces the spectrum area, which is most likely to weary or harm the eyes, should also be pleasant for long-term usage. Lenovo has historically been strong in keyboards; the Yoga 7i 14 Gen 7 is no exception. With Lenovo's trademark scalloped essential design that's both physically appealing and wonderfully tactile, the keys provide a supremely comfortable typing sensation with a good depth of travel and substantial springiness with every keystroke. A benevolent extra-wide touchpad with a smooth glass surface and support for multitouch gestures lies beneath the keyboard. The pad would be excellent for easy navigation on a notebook without touchscreen and tablet capability. On the touch-centric Yoga, a nice flourish is improving the laptop experience. Lenovo Yoga 7i: Audio display You get a large display with the Lenovo Yoga 7i, but that's roughly where it ends. Though it results in a little more glare than we would wish from a laptop that peaks at 297 nits of brightness, its reflective glass coating feels lovely and smooth for touch input. Though not dark, it's also not bright enough to challenge sunny circumstances or central overhead illumination. Though not spectacular, the 1920×1200 at 16 inches is sharp enough for most applications. Lenovo promotes Dolby Vision as part of the package; however, the display is unfit for showing anything beautiful. It has a solid contrast ratio—almost 1500:1—but a low colour gamut, covering only a meagre 67 per cent of sRGB. Drab colour and unimpressive images follow from this. Still, the Yoga 7i speakers are more than a bit respectable. Their output is reasonable, more than enough for distant listening in a small, quiet room. Additionally, they have a little low end to support films and music, along with the additional weight they need. They should not be confused with thumping, bassy speakers since they leave lower bass and sub-bass sounds out of the mix. But, especially those in the sub-$1,000 range, they provide more than most of their peers. Lenovo Yoga 7i: Biometrics, microphone, webcam With a 1080p webcam, the Yoga 7i surprises over the minimum in terms of hardware, as other components of its design do not aim to overachieve like this. Though it leans towards a lower colour temperature, it is rather sharp and reasonably bright. Windows Hello facial recognition is more significant than the resolution. It keeps proving to be a quick and easy method of signing in compared to the more erratic reaction from fingerprint scanners. Said otherwise, the Yoga 7i also features a fingerprint scanner. Although I'm speaking softly, the microphones connected with the Yoga 7i pick up my speech and help suppress some background noise, including sound emanating from the laptop itself. Though most dedicated gear will still be an improvement, they perform a decent job of recording a lifelike sound for speech. Lenovo Yoga 7i: Networking Lenovo has tagged the machine as having robust connectivity. Seeing the small design not compromising excellent port diversity makes me happy. It has fit two Thunderbolt 4s onto the left side and can perform the laptop charging duty. Those go with an HDMI port and a 3.5mm combination audio jack. A microSD card slot and two USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 connectors occupy the other side. The extensibility of Thunderbolt 4 gives hubs and docks excellent flexibility when extra ports are asked for; the onboard amount and diversity are good. With Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3, wireless communications also are robust. While testing, I found no stability problems with these wireless connections; they should support existing and upcoming networks and devices well. Battery Life Of Lenovo Yoga 7i vs Others Laptop Battery life test result (hours and minutes) Lenovo Yoga 7i 11:04 Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 8:16 Dell Inspiron 16 2-in-1 13:38 Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 7:46 Conclusion Designed with outstanding productivity performance, fast SSD measurements, and a fantastic sound system wrapped up in a stunning yet understated aluminium appearance, the Lenovo Yoga 7i is a solid 2-in-1 laptop. Our model, which costs $1,000, will not disappoint you in terms of features. Although good performance usually compromises power efficiency, its long-lasting battery life escaped the scrutiny of its suitable measurements. But this otherwise excellent laptop has an awful display. If the screen were at a reasonable level of mediocrity, I would have avoided our testing less rigorous; instead, its extreme colourlessness makes its peak brightness useless against a sliver of sunshine. For those ready to forgo colour depth and brightness for a less expensive product, the Yoga 7i is a decent choice otherwise. Read the full article

Apple might launch a 15-inch MacBook Air in late spring, bringing a completely new show dimension to the skinny MacBook, presumably powered by the M3 chip. That is in response to famous Apple tipster and Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman (opens in new tab)who famous that Apple might launch such a MacBook "between spring and late summer time" alongside a brand new iMac and Mac Professional. Going by that, we'll have June in thoughts, as Apple's subsequent WWDC 2023 occasion is more likely to happen. Apple hasn't had two show sizes for the MacBook Air because it discontinued the tremendous mild 11-inch Air in 2016. However a brand new 15-inch mannequin will make loads of sense as a result of you'll find a few of the greatest Home windows-powered ones The laptops are coming in each 13-inch and 15-inch variations. Dell XPS 13 and Dell XPS 15 are notable examples. A 15-inch MacBook Air will sit someplace between the 14-inch MacBook Professional and 16-inch MacBook Professional, however might be slimmer as a key a part of the Air's design. Which means extra room for the rumored Apple M3 chip, which might assist dissipate warmth, with the Air more likely to observe the instance of the MacBook Air M2 and be fanless. Extra space for cooling ought to enable the M3 chip to raised preserve peak clock speeds. The Air M2's compact nature implies that it tends to shortly throttle the CPU when operating extremely demanding duties like video games to maintain the chip from overheating. A bigger MacBook Air is perhaps the machine for individuals who need a little bit extra energy however do not wish to splash the money on a Professional machine. As for the silicon on the coronary heart of this MacBook Air, we count on the M3 chips to be a comparatively commonplace evolution of Apple silicon, with the potential for 3-nanometer course of nodes to pack in additional transistors concurrently. chip, thus resulting in extra energy and effectivity. The latter is especially helpful as a result of it permits M-series-powered MacBook Air fashions to run properly when away from an influence outlet. Gurman didn't word whether or not the 15-inch MacBook Air would make any design modifications. We suspect will probably be a bigger model of the present MacBook Air, which already sports activities reasonably pleasing aesthetics and a brighter show, although some is probably not followers of the notch.
