ASUS P7P55D-E Pro Intel P55 LGA 1156 Motherboard Review
ThinkComputers published a ASUS P7P55D-E Pro Intel P55 LGA 1156 Motherboard Review
Quote from review: “There are a couple of other decisions that will have to be made, mainly whether or not to get ready for the two other new technologies on the market…SATA 6gb/s, and USB 3. Many new P55 motherboards have onboard SATA 6Gb/s and USB 3, but were you aware that most of them actually use PCI-E lanes to compensate for the lack of buses to utilize these new methods of data transfer, taking those valuable lanes away from the video cards? Today I will be looking at the Asus P7P55D-E Pro, a middle-of-the-road version of Asus’ new P55 motherboards that sport SATA 6Gb/s and USB 3 without PCI-E compens ation. Yes, this board prepares you for the future while allowing you the full use of your PCI-E lanes for SLI or CrossfireX by using Asus’ new PLX implementation. Is the P7P55D-E Pro the P55 board to have? Read on to see!" Read more

WMPoweruser.com reports that the HTC Touch Pro 3 could be coming to a carrier near you this summer.
An industry insider (or someone claiming to be) has reported that the first shipment of Touch Pro 3s will arrive this summer and will start to sell in Europe in Q3 of the year. The Touch Pro 3 is likely to be the HTC Tera, a 3” resistive touchscreen device with a sliding QWERTY keyboard and...not much else.

Intel Core i7-980X Extreme 6-Core Processor review
HotHardware published a Intel Core i7-980X Extreme 6-Core Processor review.
Quote from review: “Although they are not due to hit store shelves for a few more weeks, Intel is using the always exciting Game Developers Conference currently being held in San Francisco to officially unveil the new Core i7-980X Extreme processor. Intel's Extreme Edition processors have always been targeted at ultra enthusiasts and hardcore-gamers, so what better place to show off the fastest desktop processor for the PC to date?
The new Core i7-980X Extreme is an interesting animal, however, that requires much explanation. Although its branding implies that it may be just a simple speed-bump over the previous flagship Core i7-975 Extreme, the 980X is actually a totally different beast. Come on by and take a look...” Read more

ViewSonic ViewBook Pro VNB131S 13.3-inch Notebook Review
Tweaktown published a ViewSonic ViewBook Pro VNB131S 13.3-inch Notebook Review.
Quote from review: "ViewSonic is most known for its range of TVs, PC displays and digital picture frames. The company has been making all sorts of computer displays for years now and has just started branching out into the notebook arena. Interestingly, the ViewSonic ViewBook Pro at first glance doesn't look like a freshman offering.
In fact, if you look at the ViewSonic ViewBook Pro too quickly, you might actually mistake the thing for an Apple MacBook Pro. The minimalist design, silver on black colors and elegant looks of the machine certainly appeal to the same senses that draw many to the MacBook line." Read more
