Dell UltraSharp 1905FP 19-inch Flat Panel Monitor

Dell UltraSharp 1905FP 19-inch Flat Panel Monitor

Flat Panel computer monitors are hot wished for items this Christmas and the Dell 1905FP leads the pack for 19″ LCD monitors. I have a couple of these gorgeous monitors and with 800:1 contrast ratio and a max resolution of 1280×1024 pixels, the screen is unmatched in quality with other LCD monitors I’ve seen.

Another plus for this monitor, I’ve order both personally and professional over 10 and non have had dead pixels upon arrival! None! Usually, flat panel manufacturers allow for a certain number of pixels to be dead to be in the normal range and you will quite often get a couple dead pixels which can be annoying in the middle of the screen.

Dell also has a 20″ wide screen flat panel monitor (2005FPW) which is the best flat panel monitor out there in my opinion!

Toshiba Qosmio F15-AV201 15.4

The Toshiba Qosmio F15-AV201 15.4″ Notebook PC sports an Intel Pentium M Processor 745 running at 1.8GHz. Don’t worry AMD fans, you’ll be represented in a couple hours with the second computer!

What’s the difference between the Qosmio and other laptops? Toshiba markets the machine as having strong multimedia and 3D graphics attributes and can be easily integrated into home entertainment setups.

We won’t bore you with the specs (if you want to know just click on the image or read more), but we will leave you with two words as to why you should wait for a laptop: dual core.

Palm Z22 Handheld

Palm Z22 Handheld

Palm has finally released a true Personal Digital Assistant returning to their core business and the PDA is called a Palm Z22 Handheld. Palm has always been great at this type of product but has strayed over the last few years.

For under $100, the Palm Z22 delivers what you would expect for an entry level PDA. If you’re not sure a PDA would work for you, the price is right to test a true PDA. This Palm does not come with “advanced” features such as wireless (802.11a/b/g or bluetooth), larger or better display, ability to extend memory and hifi quality audio (hence “entry level PDA”).

Maxtor OneTouch III 1TB External Hard Drive

Maxtor OneTouch III 1TB External Hard Drive

Maxtor’s largest external drive, the 1TB (that’s 1,000 GBs!) OneTouch III features 2 hard disks in it so that you can choose to use either RAID 0 (striping) or RAID 1 (mirroring). Of course, if you use mirroring where the data on 1 disk is duplicated on the other, you’ll lose half the capacity, but have redundancy, and hell, 500GB is still a lot of space! The OneTouch comes with the one button backup function which backs up your entire machines, as well as Maxtor DriveLock which password protects files. The OneTouch comes with USB 2.0, Firewire 400 and Firewire 800 interfaces for high-speed transfers. The maximum sustained transfer rate with Firewire 800 is 91MB/sec. That works out to over 5GB per minute!

Mvix Multimedia Player

Mvix Multimedia Player

Linux running a drive enclosure equals a really cool gizmo called Mvix’s Multimedia Player.

You need to purchase a a 3.5″ hard drive to put in the Mvix Multimedia Player since it does not come with one. The good part of that is you can put any size you want or can afford in the Player. Next you hook the MVix into a USB 2.0 port on your machine (make sure you have 2.0 or go on vacation as you are copying files to the MVix. Copy over just about every audio and video format file because the MVix can probably handle it. Finally, connect this drive enclosure into your home stereo equipment and using the on-screen menu system enjoy!
