- The touch interface has arrived on smartphones, thanks largely to the iPhone. But it hasn't found much mainstream success on the PC despite years of trying.

- Toshiba Satellite T135-S1300
- Thin-and-light laptops may look similar, but they're not all made the same. It's a deceptive world out there, especially since many thin-and-lights trade performance for a stylishly thin chassis, all while marketing a mainstream look that suggests performance equal to other notebooks.The Toshiba T135 is part of Toshiba's new T100...

- Whether CULV thin-and-light laptops will ever fully find a spot between the Netbook world and the full-featured laptop world, they are most definitely a category that's growing every day.

- Wall Street still worrying over netbook impact on Microsoft's Windows 7 sales
- Now if I could pay $15/year to keep Windows running .... I would be happy and MS would have a "steady" yearly cash stream. Unfortunately, the current setup is, "pay me now, enjoy later maybe".With the pay me now scheme, there is no incentive to keep me happy once...
