New Gaming Notebook ASUS G50V-A1

The ASUS G50V-A1 is a new 15.4-inch gaming notebook on the market come this holiday season. The G50V-A1 is one of the best machines, manufactured by ASUS Performance-wise, but it has other problems than if it is your intention should be used heavily on the “Gaming Notebook” for the intended purpose. The notebook offers excellent performance with an Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 powered, high-quality WSXGA + display and numerous features that make the system stand out. It is even with useful accessories, which are usually not with a laptop, including a backpack and gaming mouse bundled. The G50V is covered with a two-year warranty, and the first year includes accidental damage coverage as well. The ASUS G50V-A1 comes with a recovery CD that can be useful in an emergency.

When the system was taken as a business machine market, we could stop writing with an unusual. But while the laptop offers great stock performance, the G50V-A1 is over clocking and power management capabilities are not so good. Even if the machine was nearly flawless during regular use, it is always a plus for them to carry out during rigorous benchmark tests (World Bench Mobile Mark, etc.). Another serious problem is that driver support for widescreen resolution (1440×900), which would be missing come in handy. It works perfectly in its normal resolution of 1680×1050, but to step down to 1280×768 for a decent widescreen resolution does not look good.

The G50V-A1 comes with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, 4 GB DDR2-800 RAM. The notebook includes an 8x DVD-RW Super Multi drive, 8-in-1 card reader, integrated 1.3 megapixel webcam, and Intel Wireless WiFi Link 5100AGN with built-in Bluetooth support. Overall, the G50V gaming platform is a quality. The design and many features are great. The graphics card uses it (the NVIDIA GeForce 9700 GT) is a bit below for an ASUS because it is very underpowered for a gaming laptop. The A1 can be purchased for just under $1,600, but it can since the ASUS G50Vt-X1 can be expensive $ 1,250 are purchased.

Arlier this year they released their Lenovo ThinkPad X300, a great notebook for the business-minded people. More recently, the X300, the ThinkPad X301 model has been updated. With many improvements of his great predecessor, you can expect great things from the X301.

He is basic configuration with 2 GB of RAM and an Intel Core 2 Due (1.4GHz) Ultra Low Voltage U9400 processor. The ThinkPad X301 reached PCMark Vantage score of 3157, the 400 points higher than most sub-notebooks. So here it is a great score, but still about 60 points of the Sony VAIO VGN-Z530N and nearly 500 points shy of the Lenovo notebook ThinkPad X200.

The X301 is not as good for all of its graphics tests. In the 3DMark03 benchmark, the X301 (which is an Intel GMA X4500MHD graphics card powered) netted one in 1812, a score of 400 points higher than its competitors and its predecessor, the X300 is. However, the 3DMark06 score of 200 points less than other machines in its class. FEAR was also tested in the auto-detect mode and the game ran at a tiny 14fps. If the settings to maximum were increased, it was only 6fps. WOW was 27.4fps, which is okay, but it is important to remember that this is not a gaming laptop should be, and not expected to carry out Alienware are, for example new Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Standard.

Lenovo X301′s boot-up time was a little slower than expected. The X301 with its 64GB SSD, took about 1 minute and 37 seconds to boot up Windows Vista, almost 30 seconds slower than the average ultraportable, and 48 seconds slower than the older X300. The SSD does not disappoint and definitely lived up to its fast transfer time copying a 5GB folder in about two minutes and 40 seconds, however. The SSD has a transfer rate of 32.4 MB per second, which is miles ahead of 13.4 megabytes per second transfer rate of competitors with mechanical drives. If you do not fill your need 64GB of capacity, an upgrade option for a 128GB SSD, the $400 cost.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Standard Review

Say the words “speech recognition software” and most people will think of Dragon Naturally Speaking. Dragon has ruled the castle for years, partly because it is always a great piece of software, partly because of lack of competition. Now, Vista and Mac OS have advanced voice recognition, that’s pretty good at controlling your computer’s menus and windows. When it comes to dictation on the Mac, you will be to spring for MacSpeech Dictate (which licenses have the technology behind Dragon NaturallySpeaking). Vista has on the other side in. It is a dictation function quite capable, even built, but it is not nearly a match for the new Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10th With this release, the leading voice-recognition-software benefits from new automation tools, improved hands-free navigation, updates to the interface and most important-increased accuracy and speed.

Most general-purpose versions of the product (which are available starting at $ 99) also Andrea NC-19 monaural headset, but the $ 349 Preferred Wireless Edition replaces a smooth little Calisto Bluetooth headset from Plantronics. I tested Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 Professional, the top-of-the-line general-purpose output. It includes several commands for such applications as Microsoft Office, and it also has enterprise security features.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Standard Review

Nuance developers claim that the average typist today occurs 35 words per minute with 58 percent accuracy. They say convert its new product improves the accuracy right from its predecessor by 20 percent and 160 words per minute on average 99 percent of what it hears. I was dubious, but came away amazed at how good the product was only 8 minutes of training.

I actually created a lot of labels for this article the slideshow with the software and was very impressed with how accurately and quickly rewrote the program, even if I spoke without pausing between words. There were occasional blips-JFK inauguration was to be “no time”, but also spoke of the man himself sometimes interrogate words. They can even how much speed you opt for the accuracy of trade with a slider a handy feature.

he plays Dragon’s accuracy is worth, because when Vista dictations for free offers? I tested both Naturally Speaking and Vista 10 by reading a press release about a new video conferencing service. Both were perfect. Obviously I had to find something more challenging. I found it in the first two sentences long (about 14 rows) by Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s Autumn of the Patriarch. NaturallySpeaking missed three words, Vista six. Some of Vista that were missed more often, it confuses “pecking” for the “packaging” and “the” for “a” at one point. Naturally Speaking was “correct Grandeur”; Vista thought I would have said “Grand year.” Neither did “heroic”: Vista, as it made “you wrote” and DNS as you said three.”

For both speech recognition tools, but the accuracy was high: Naturally Speaking 98 percent done, Vista, 96 The significant difference I noticed in my tests that Vista shows a delay before the text production. Naturally Speaking was immediate, and if you really dictate (rather read) that the delay may interrupt your train of thought, if you train your eyes on the screen.

For kicks I tried the video press-release dictate to the product after installation without training. To my surprise, it perfectly transcribed. Does the same in Vista was not really practical: Although it did, most of the dictations, each time when I heard, I had to say then: “Okay” to a dialog that appeared. Vista can not make the same claim on accurate dictation without training, the DNS can.

The netbook has the same weight and dimensions as the NB305-N410: 2.9 pounds (including battery), and 10.5 cm wide, 7.6 inches high by 1.4 inches thick. It comes with a six-cell lithium-ion battery, which manages about 9.5 hours of battery life in PCWorld tests.

In contrast to the high-end version of the keyboard, with its small, oddly shaped chiclet-style keys, the NB305-N310 keyboard has a pleasant, normal keyboard. His flat, black keys all over full-size, are the space bar is to some extent, the shift keys decently large, and the tab key – albeit small – is simply wrong to hit (on the NB305-N410 keyboard, I the Tab key every time I tried to use it. The function keys at the top are tiny, but the extra attention makes to the letter of keys more than compensate.

The NB305-N310′s trackpad is bigger than on most Netbooks, and comes with two large, easy-to-press mouse buttons. The trackpad is softer and therefore easier than the high-end model and trackpad supports multitouch gestures like pinching to zoom and two finger scrolling.

The new Mini has a 10.1-inch glossy widescreen LED-backlit display with a native resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels. If you can get past the low resolution, this is actually a big screen – the colors are bright and sharp, the images are sharp and easy to see even in bright sunlight. If you move too far left or right, it’s a bit of reflection – especially on pages with dark background.

Although this netbook offers stereo sound, the speakers are underneath the chassis, which makes it a bit hard to hear, especially if the device is on your lap. Video playback is pretty good if you are viewed in standard definition and not in full screen mode, but the Atom N450 processor, not the power, High Definition, to deliver full-screen video. A standard-definition episode of House on Hulu flew in without any problems, but when I switched to full screen or high def, I immediately encountered significant stuttering. If you opt for a netbook that play full-screen Flash video can look, this is not the model for you.
