No 3D or over-the-top designs here, but HP has just rolled out a pair of new laptops for those simply looking for the basics. First up is the 15.6-inch G62m series laptop (pictured above), which packs a 2.2GHz Celeron 900 processor, 3GB or DDR3 RAM, a 320GBHard Drive, and integrated Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics on the base model, and starts at just $529.99 (a few upgrades are available, though you’re stuck at the Celeron level for processors). On the slightly higher-end is the 17.3-inch Pavilion dv7t, which is considerably configurable, but starts out with a Core i3-380M processor, 4GB of RAM, a 500GB hard drive, and the same integrated Intel graphics for $774.99 (after a $150 instant rebate and $25 coupon).

The 2008 election brought America the first black president and a Democratic House and Senate but was not good for the gays, to say the least, with the passage of Proposition 8 in California. This time around, the tables have turned, as according to the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund, more GLBT candidates were elected at the midterm polls than ever before, while the Dems didn’t quite fare so well. Another significant score in the estimation of some gay rights groups was Jerry Brown’s election as California’s next governor, with San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom as lieutenant governor. Now, about that Proposition 8, gentlemen. …

November 3, 2010 No CommentLawrence “Crazy Larry” O'Donnell was back to his former self during MSNBC's Election Night coverage Tuesday. During the 9 p.m. EDT hour O'Donnell claimed that if Rand Paul would not vote as senator to raise the debt ceiling, it would destroy the United States' credit rating and possibly spark a worldwide depression. O'Donnell also pressed House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) on the matter. After Cantor refused to give O'Donnell a direct answer to his oddball question, the frustrated MSNBC host ranted that he didn't want to see Cantor on MSNBC again. In the beginning segment, O'Donnell was giving commentary after live coverage of Rand Paul's victory speech. Paul, he noted, will soon be pressed to vote on raising the debt ceiling, something which O'Donnell asserted is vital to the health of the U.S. economy.

November 3, 2010 No Comment
You’ll read about many a wonder at CES this January, but you can cross the OLPC XO-3 off the list — One Laptop Per Child founder Nicholas Negroponte told PC World that the slate’s debut has been pushed back roughly 45 days, until the middle of February instead. Whether the Marvell Moby-based tablet turns out to be a sexy, paper-thin device or a chunky contraption wasn’t discussed, but Negroponte did have a simple explanation for the delay — he needed a suitable surface to cover that probable Pixel Qi touchscreen . “The issue has been really finding an unbreakable material,” he said, hinting that “it may be glass or some flavor of glass,” rather than plastic as originally planned . Might we suggest a taste test at the Corning laboratories, Mr. Negroponte? We hear they have a Gorilla that does quite nicely . Video after the break.
