Samsung Series 7 Gamer Review : The company's first gaming laptop makes its way to the US - Sure, thin, light and power-efficient may be the latest trend in notebook design, but one category of portable computing isn't afraid of going against the grain: the oversized gaming laptop. These big machines often flirt with double-digit weights, with screens in excess of 17 inches and the most powerful chipsets under the hood. Price $1,900 Microsoft Announces Windows Phone 8: New Start Screen, NFC, and More | Popular Science - Microsoft, in a big one-two punch of mobile, followed up Monday's Surface tablet announcement with today's unveiling of Windows Phone 8. It's the followup to last year's "Mango" update, which we quite liked, but it seems like the updates here are much more for developers than users (i.e. native code sharing with Windows 8).

Back in March, researchers fired off 411 terawatts, and we know that kind of power doesn't come cheap. NIF's latest test shot, fired July 5th, set a new record with 192 lasers producing more than 500 trillion watts of peak power.

Zafiro Iridium - Most Expensive Razor in the World : $100,000 - Anyone who owns the Zafiro Iridium razor won’t care about replacing blades as they are made from pure sapphire.

The hexagonal screws used in the razor are 99.95% pure platinum. 2020 Vision - A Look Forward To The Promises of a Truly Amazing Year | Popular Science. Future Cities! In the year 2020, cars will fly, cities will power themselves with sunlight, biofuels, and minerals mined from the moon, computers will be more powerful than the human brain, and everything will be a touchscreen! Perhaps. VW's 260-MPG Diesel Hybrid Concept May Actually Get Built | Popular Science. Volkswagen's latest eye-catching creation, the ultra-efficient diesel-hybrid XL1, debuted at the Qatar Auto Show, immediately garnering attention both for its looks and its specs.

Engineers have figured out how to make robots walk more like people, but whether closely replicating human movements is a good idea is debatable.

The Green Dream - Going Gray, Saving Blue - Popular Science. A graywater system uses shower and sink runoff to flush the toilets. Plus four more ways to save water at home. The Dirty Suicidal Secret of Facebook - Social Network News. At the core of the dot-com collapse was the problem that folks running a lot of companies simply lacked the key skills necessary to run those firms. Both Google and Facebook are demonstrating behaviors suggesting they too lack critical skills, and unless that is fixed, their initial success will eventually be overshadowed by their catastrophic failures. Good read and very true.
