Asus, Amazon offer $75 to $100 gift certificates with select notebooks

asus-amazon

A few days ago I mentioned that Amazon begin offering customers a $ 75 gift certificate when they order an Asus UL20A thin and light notebook. Well, here is the promotion page now live, and it turns out, it’s a bit more.

In addition, you can make a $ 100 voucher if you are seeking an Asus UL50A or UL80V. These notebooks are much larger and more expensive than the 12.1 inches UL20A, but if what you are looking for might sweeten the $ 100 voucher business.

Of course I would be happier if they just knocked $ 75 to $ 100 piece of the prize, but since then Amazon sells almost everything from computers to food, I take a check is almost like cash. You know, the kind of money you can spend, and that only online stores not in bricks and mortar.

If the USB 2.0 is still a large part is to start your day, about the future, because USB 3.0 will be a matter of … two years or universal.

If you do not know, with USB 3.0 technology in a flash drive, the speeds are much faster and you can transfer files of up to 200 MB per second, or even better if you optimize the system with a special USB-attached SCSI driver .

As you can imagine, all portable drives still working USB 2.0 ports, which operate at 60 MB per second. For now, there is no information on the prices of the new Super Talent USB 3.0 flash drives, but the capacities are 32GB, 64GB and 128GB, set with a release date for December 2009.

MSI Wind12 U230 Notebook With Neo X2 Platform and ATI Graphics

MSI Wind12 U230 Notebook With Neo X2 Platform and ATI Graphics

Bring on the Windows 7 netbooks, or in this case, not netbooks. The 12.1-inch MSI Wind12 U230, which appeared on the MSI’s web site, looks like a netbook, feels like a Netbook with 2.9 kilograms and has the same 160GB hard drive. But it promises more powerful performance. It runs Windows 7 Home Premium, as opposed to the slimmed down Starter Edition, and packs AMD Athlon X2 Neo-platform which has a higher performance than Atom delivers punch (but shorter battery life battery).

In addition to a processor that is faster than a netbook (but weaker than a dual-core Intel ULV system), it promises stunning graphics performance for the screen size, thanks to a built-in ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics card. In fact, the notebook an HDMI port for output of HD content is (the screen itself has a resolution of 1366 x 768). We look forward not only the performance of the system graphics card, but what kind of game you can handle it to see how smoothly and it plays 720p video clips.

Again, the compromise for this neo-based system is likely the battery life.

dell arctic white review

MSI promises only four hours, while other affordable ultraportables such as Asus UL30A, last almost ten hours. Finally, the MSI U230, which is a “de-stress, ergonomic keyboard phone calls.” We are conossieurs, type, from keyboards (and touchpads) by now, so we are, what de-stress leads exactly curious.

No word yet on when the ship or U230, how much it will cost. Stay tuned.
