Two car models say goodbye: Honda S2000 and Cadillac XLR
Wednesday, January 28th, 2009 - Disclaimer
After 10 years of continuous production without any substantial changes, Honda S2000 will say goodbye at any time in 2009. This is another Honda’s move, which also decided to dump its next-generation NSX sports car. So it seems the Japanese maker will be devoted especially to produce low-end cars or cars designed for the mass of people.
Finally the date arrived. Computer storage company Western Digital ended up launching its new Caviar Green hard drives that have a storage capacity of up to 2TB. According to the company, those hard drives are the world’s highest-capacity hard drives at this time.
Acer, the third computer maker worldwide (and major maker in some countries), has announced the availability of its Aspire One netbook with 10-inch display.
Finally and after observing the market carefully for several months, the memory maker Corsair apparently is ready to launch a 2.5-inch solid state drive to store up to 128GB of data.
Apple updated its first and popular MacBook (polycarbonate white laptop). Among other changes, the white MacBook now has a Nvidia GeForce 9400M graphics card, just like the other MacBook versions (Unibody).
T-Mobile G1 (aka the “Google phone”), currently available only in USA and United Kingdom, is getting ready for its launch in other European countries where it will be available soon.
YouTube announced its association with Sony and Nintendo to launch “YouTube for Television” (http://www.youtube.com/tv, which is a link accessible only by a video game console) through the PlayStation 3 and Wii, respectively.
It seems Asus introduces new laptops every week. Ok, maybe not every week. But this week (not including ultra-thin laptops) the company introduced Asus F70 and Asus F50. With these laptops, Asus want to offer a better performance in its portable computers.
