By Charlie Sorrel We said that we would have to wait for a final release of Mac OS X 10.6.2 to be sure whether Apple had really killed off support for the Intel Atom processor, and we were right. Stellarolla, the hacker who first reported that a developers seed of the upcoming OS update would break compatibility w...

By Chris Davies Having heard earlier this week that Apple had blocked Atom processor support in their latest build of OS X 10.6.2, we’re now being told that the low-power Intel CPU has once again been welcomed back into the Mac fold.  A newer 10.6.2 build, 10C535, has restored Atom support, meaning owners of ne...

By Chris Davies The document lists two potential machines, currently unnamed beyond “Envy 14-1000″, and there’s no sign of any specifications regarding the hardware.  The existing Envy 13 uses an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, while the Envy 15 gets a Core i7 chip; it’s possible that the Envy 14 could slot i...

By Steven Sande In a move sure to rile up the crowds of people (including our very own Erica Sadun) who have converted cheap Intel Atom-powered netbooks into tiny MacBook-like hackintoshes, several sites are reporting that Apple will kill support for the battery-sipping CPU in the next release of Snow...

By Joanna Stern Clearly, Dell along with Intel and Microsoft want to promote the sales of more profitable machines with full priced operating systems (not a cheap, eight-year-old version of Windows) and a higher powered processor and chipset. And can you really blame them, especially when we heard las...

By Matt Burns Okay, so Apple just updated the Mac Mini, iMac, and totally redesigned the white MacBook. But what about the MacBook Pros? PC manufacturers are already stuffing Intel Core i7 and i5 CPUs into their flagship notebooks, but the MacBook Pros are still rocking Core 2 Duos. That might change soo...

By Sang Tang Two weekends ago, Diet Coke was accidentally spilled onto my MacBook Pro Keyboard. The machine, a Core Duo 15" that was among the first of the Intel Macs rolled out, suddenly didn't work the way it used to. Luckily, damage was restricted only to the keyboard: caps lock, shift, b, h, and num loc...

By Joanna Stern Meanwhile, your average Atom netbook can't play a 1080p clip without stuttering, not can it multitask as smoothly. However, no UL system can reach the performance of a Core 2 Duo with discrete graphics. By way of comparison a 15.4 inch Acer Aspire with a 2.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and dis...

By Joanna Stern Internal Power The HP Envy 13's 2.13GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor (along with 3GB of RAM) doesn't quite have as much as power as the MacBook Pro's 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, but it still keeps up with everyday tasks.

By Doug Aamoth Underneath it all, though, is your basic netbook: Atom N270 CPU, Intel GMA950 graphics, 1GB of RAM, 120GB hard drive, Wi-Fi, and Windows.

By Matt Burns Just like Doug said, the Timeline is more than a netbook, but more portable than your average notebook. The six cell battery should power this slim notebook for more than eight hours thanks to the Intel ULV SU2700 CPU and LED back-lit screen. Expect to see reviews dropping shortly compari...
