- Dell Ships Gorgeous 16″ Thin-And-Light Latitude Z For $2000
We thought Dell’s Studio XPS 16 was fairly thin when we reviewed it earlier this month, but it would look downright chubby next to the company’s latest 16″ machine. What’s easily the world’s thinnest and lightest 16″ laptop, the Latitude Z is aimed at business professionals who are looking to get ahead partially on the sexiness of the machine they carry in their briefcase.
Think we’re kidding? Dell itself admits that this machine targets “impression makers, such as entrepreneurs, attorneys, creative professionals, salespeople and leading higher education faculty.” Bold, no? It’s essentially the planet’s first 16″ thin-and-light notebook, starting at just 4.5lbs. with a four-cell battery and measuring just 0.57″ thin. Other specifications include a 1600×900 WLED display, a multi-touch touchpad, backlit keyboard, EdgeTouch (which allows users to interact with commonly used applications and media controls through a touch interface that is on the bezel of the system’s screen) and FaceAware lock-out technology that automatically locks out other users when a user steps away from the laptop.
In addition to these features, the Latitude Z is available with WLAN, Bluetooth and optional 3G WWAN mobile broadband, not to mention a 2MP webcam, Core 2 Duo CPU, an integrated UWB radio and an optional wireless dock that supports DVI and USB. Heck, those with loads of cash can ever order one with dual SSDs! Dell is also using this machine to debut Latitude ON, an instant & always-on connection to email, web, contacts and calendar (detailed more below)
The Latitude Z is available starting today in select countries in Europe and Asia, as well as Canada and the U.S., starting at $1,999, and more details are available at www.dell.com/latitude.

- AMD Athlon II X4 Affordable Quad-core Processors
AMD always come late to the show but when they arrive, they astonish others with their ultimate low price offerings compared to that of Intel. Their latest Athlon II X4 is the world’s first quad core CPU to be priced at less than $100. Their earlier quad core processors called Phenom II X4 processors were priced above $200. On the Intel’s part their Core 2 Quad and Core 2 Extreme processors are always on the higher side of price range. This means that if you want the cheapest quad core processor you have to go with the AMD Athlon II X4 processors.
The new Athlon II X4 is, I believe, the smallest quad core X86 processor around. At 169 mm squared it is smaller than even the Core 2 Quad (2 x 107 mm square). This means that AMD can pack a lot more dies on a wafer with the Athlon II X4, and they can sell it at a far lower price than the 264 mm squared Phenom II. Excising the L3 cache also allows AMD a lot more leeway in the TDPs of these processors, and bins are likely not nearly as tight as what we may have seen with the Phenom II when it was originally released. The L3 cache eats a lot of power, and is a significant source of heat for these modern processors.
The new quad-core AMD Athlon II X4 processors performed very well, especially given their relatively low price points. Despite its lack of L3 cache, the new Propus core used in the Athlon II X4s perform extremely well compared to their full-fledged Deneb-based siblings. Comparatively, the new Athlon II X4 processors are also very competitive with Intel’s low-end quad-core offerings. However, gaming performance suffered due to the lack of L3 cache. Overall though, the Athlon II X4 processors are surprisingly good performers.
