Dell Studio XPS 16 Laptop
Blending power with elegance, the Studio XPSTM 16 is designed to deliver the ultimate multimedia laptop experience.
Apple MacBook laptops
When it comes to inner stuff, Nvidia’s new chipset with enhanced integrated graphics is a real nice thing to mention. Many physical changes have also been made outside that include unibody aluminum chassis, the buttonless touchpad and sleek glass on the LED-backlit.
Its base model has the same $1,299 price tag, but the FireWire port is missing in its transition. And instead of a 2.4GHz CPU, this $1299 model houses a 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo. There is the same 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo processor in the high-end model. Both these new MacBook models run on a quicker front-side bus.
Without FireWire and slower CPU, this new MacBook really expresses an impressive feat and value of engineering and this is a thing that almost everyone can expect from a flagship product of the company and which has been serving as favorite for quite some time.
Some notable physical changes have been made that include an aluminum chassis instead of well-known white and black body. New totally redesigned touchpad is another new notable feature and it has the same multitouch gestures that you can see in the iPhone as well as in MacBook Air and Pro.
When it comes to display, the 13.3” LCD display gives out a nice 1280X800 native resolution that is standard for 13 and 15” screens. It makes text and icons quite clearly readable LED-backlit displays have also been added that indicate towards a thinner lid and various benefits including sound battery life.
This new MacBook is not nicely packed with connections as it has only two 2.0 USB ports without any FireWire. But this time you would find them an SD-card reader as well as an ExpressCard slot that you may have desired in Mac for quite some time.
When it comes to performance, without some new CPU options, the real great development has been made by packing a new Nvidia chipset in it that is also called the 9400M GeForce that has some nice improved integrated graphics. These GeForce 9400 graphics are quite impressive and offer 58.7 frames per second at the resolution of 1024×768.
As far as battery life is concerned, these laptops from Apple’s laptops are quite well known for their above average battery life and the same impressiveness you can expect from these new laptops. Apple has the knack to impress as well as somewhat frustrate with its nice service and support and the same is true about these new laptops.

Rogue Warrior
| platform: | PC / Windows |
| see this game on other platforms: | PS3 | 360 |
Rogue Warrior is a story-driven shooter that provides team-based tactical combat set in massive, contiguous levels using Unreal 3 streaming technology. Central to the game's single and multiplayer experience is the idea of a freeform battlefield, where players are given the freedom to choose how to complete a given objective, allowing for creativity and surprises, rather than heavily scripted events and tightly contained spaces traditionally used in this genre. An advanced AI system allows NPCs to react and fight realistically, see and hear others, and respond as a team. Rogue Warrior offers a new take on the multiplayer experience, with 10 gameplay modes and a system whereby maps are created using tiles that are selected by each team. Rogue Warrior's tiling system allows users to experience over 200 maps in both day and nighttime settings. In addition, the campaign features solo and on-the-fly cooperative play for up to four players, where anyone can join or leave an existing campaign game at any time without having to go to menus or save progress.
In Rogue Warrior, you play Dick Marcinko, leader of an elite SEAL unit trapped behind enemy lines in North Korea on a covert mission to assess the threat posed by North Korea’s nuclear arsenal. When war breaks out between North and South Korea, you must try to lead your team back into South Korea while greatly outnumbered and with no support and limited resupply. Your journey will take you through a variety of never-before-seen environments inside of North Korea, including submarine pens, shipbreaker yards, prison camps, and more.
