Gateway released its first 16-inch laptops, the MC7801u and the MC7803u. With a 16:9 aspect ratio screen, 16-inch (and 18-inch) models are beginning to emerge.
Unlike traditional 16:10 laptop displays, a 16:9 screen matches the ratio of movies and HD content. Similar to the redesigned MacBook, the display on Gateway’s MC series laptops features a glossy glass overlay that runs edge to edge. The 16-inch screen features a 1366×768 resolution; you’ll need to bump up to an 18-inch model for 1080p playback.

Apple’s MacBook Pro line was pretty much the only sure thing slated for today’s event, and Apple certainly delivered. As for looks, you probably know the score by now: chiclet keyboard, Air-inspired aluminum styling, and a glossy screen that’s flush with a new iMac-like black bezel.
Apple’s also put in some effort on slimming down the computer, bringing it down to a mere 0.95-inches thick, but much of the real excitement happens under the hood. There’s a new internal structure, that rumored “brick” of aluminum that helps Apple make the new Pro thin, strong and leaves room for the real goodies: the specs.

Canon EOS 40D digital SLR camera review: The new Canon EOS 40D is Canon’s seventh camera in this segment. Put the models next to each other, from the EOS D30 to the 40D, and look at them from a distance, you will notice that it is hard to see the differences between them. This is a completely different approach than it used to be for analogue cameras. A model would last for approximately 5 to 10 years and would then be replaced by an entirely new camera.
