Habey USA Unveils 12" Touchscreen Atom-Powered PC
Here's an... interesting one. Habey USA isn't exactly known for pumping out vanilla machines, and the company's keeping it weird with their latest idea.

Asus Ion 2-Powered Eee PC 1201PN Review
It's been said for years by industry veterans: a lot can happen in a very short window of time when you're dealing with technology.
