GBM InkShow: HP tx2525 Entertainment PC

image Over the past week or so, I have been taking a look at the HP tx2525 Entertainment PC.  I shot some video of a few features on the new machine that I thought would be of interest to someone wanting to purchase on of these Entertainment PCs.  The video starts off with a quick look at the tx2525 compared to the tx2051.  After the quick look, I test out the touch screen feel and inking functionality using Windows Journal.  Then, since it’s an Entertainment PC, I give a quick look at the HP utility on the machine that is a hub for all media.  I play a DVD then move to using my Slingbox to show how easily the application functions.  At the end of the video, I use the included remote control to navigate my way around Windows Media Center.

The video is:

GBM Podcast #65: Price Drop

We’re back with another podcast after quite a break due to some illness and real life work issues. (Quite honestly, Matt just ate too much turkey at Thanksgiving and is just now recovering.) And, as we come back to GBM Podcast land we’re trying to figure out what is dropping faster the price of Netbooks or the price of gas. Both seem to be racing for some sort of bottom as we near the end of the year.

In addition, we also spend some time talking about Matt’s rebuilding of two HP Tablet PCs (the TX2051 and the TX2525) as well as why we love imperfect platforms so much. We also give a bow to our sponsor, Techsmith, for just releasing Snagit 9.1, a new upgrade with some nifty new features. We have some fun, and we hope you will to. Check out the show notes and download options after the jump.

GBM InkShow: HP TouchSmart Video Review

If I could buy one thing for my family this Christmas, it would be HP’s TouchSmart PC. From the finish of the design to the well implemented touch applications, HP nailed the entire experience. My family and friends have totally gotten into the TouchSmart and will be sad to see me ship this off to our HP Magic Giveaway winner. The experience is solidly done, natural, and sets the bar for what we should come to expect in future all-in-one PCs.

GBM InkShow: HP Mini 1000 Netbook

I have not been a huge fan of Netbooks, mostly due to the size of the keyboard, screen, and being worried about performance. Having a chance to review the HP Mini 1000 changed that for me, though.

The HP Mini 1000 is a fantastic choice for those wanting something more mobile without wanting to break the bank. I’ve been very impressed with the speed, the comfort of the keyboard, and spacious screen. Continue reading
