Aww, just look at that. It's perfectly normal to find a keyboard cute, right? Corsair's entry-level Vengeance K65 mechanical board might lose some functionality by dropping the numpad, but it gains more than just novelty value in the process. All the essentials are covered within the K65's 436mm-long chassis, and a number of extra features have been added to make this a portable unit. Every key (apart from the volume buttons and Windows lock at the very top) has a Cherry MX Red mechanical switch beneath it, and that's something not even its pricier K90 sibling can claim. The macro and function keys on the latter are membrane-operated, creating a jarring sensation when switching between the QWERTY layout and the macro bay.The K65 does away with macros altogether, but as a result there's no disparity between keystrokes on the board. It's clear that Corsair's pricier K60 and K90 - along with its more recent K70 and K95 revisions - are the design genus for this...

Apple CEO Tim Cook aimed a swipe at convertibles during the company's recent iPad Air and OS X 10.9 Mavericks launch. "Our competition is different," he said. "They're confused. They chased after netbooks. Now they're trying to make PCs into tablets and tablets into PCs. Who knows what they will do next?" If any device sums up the industry's unpredictable nature, it's Asus' Transformer Book Trio. First unveiled at Computex, it's a multi-headed hydra of a convertible that lets you switch between Android Jelly Bean 4.2 and Windows 8 at the push of a button. Lenovo's IdeaPad U1 notebook gave a similar pitch back in 2010 but never made the leap into production. Samsung's Ativ Q , another Windows 8-slash-Android hybrid that was launched in London earlier this year, has been delayed due to patent problems - perhaps indefinitely. Will the Transformer Trio succeed where others have failed? Software Asus is billing the Transformer B...

Having a NAS (Network Attached Storage) and getting it installed and set up to keep your important files safe and sound has become easier and easier throughout the years. You no longer need to be an expert to set one up at home, or even have a dedicated IT department work on it in the office. The Buffalo LinkStation 421 Enclosure LS421DE is Buffalo's latest consumer-friendly yet robust NAS device. Unlike products such as the Western Digital My Book Live Duo 4TB the Buffalo LinkStation 421 Enclosure LS421DE doesn't come with hard drives preinstalled. Not only does this keep the initial cost of the NAS device down, it can offer you some other advantages. You can choose the speed and size of the drives you want to use (the LS421DE supports up to 8TB over two drives), and if you have spare hard drives lying around then you can save a bit of money. If not, you can at least shop around for some competitively priced hard drives. It also means that it is easy to swap and replace hard...

Introduction The 2013 refresh comes less than a year after 2012's radical redesign. But while last year's iMacs brought us a new, ultra-slim form factor, this year's upgrades are all internal. The Ivy Bridge processors are upgraded to Intel's new Haswell chips, the graphics chips have been upgraded to Nvidia 7-series GPUs and wireless connectivity has been boosted from Wi-Fi 802.11n to 802.11ac. But on the outside, they remain exactly the same as last year's iMacs. Not that this is a bad thing. The 2012 redesign brought us a second Thunderbolt port and a redesigned screen that's fully laminated, losing the 2mm gab between the screen and its covering and an anti-reflective coating added using a new plasma deposition process, allowing it to be applied very thinly, for greatly reduced reflections without affecting color reproduction.
