LG has finally joined the rest of the computer world (Stateside, of course), releasing their first netbook in the U.S. to date – with the LG X120 is the star of the show this time. It is somewhat surprising, given the LG X120 has already happened in other countries some time ago, but again, the adage is true – better late than never. With a deluge of netbooks already flooding the market in the United States, is there room for one more? Why not take a look more closely at the LG X120 after the break before drawing conclusions, and who knows, you might just have this itch to buy a brand new netbook for you or a family member this Christmas to come.

LG Rolls First Netbook

The LG Netbook X120 is the first of its kind from LG, where he not only provides all the benefits of a Netbook, it also offers users a shortcut to the fun stuff with a single chip in the interface that makes him a wink Eye stay connected faster and easier than ever. Whether you’re an avid social networker who just need to check your Facebook page of the clock tower or a student who wants something light and yet functional, the LG X120 is able to deliver. Although I think for the first, he / she would probably also have a cell phone or Blackberry, which already has a Facebook application to manage the mobile aspect of social networking.

Tipping the scales at £ 2.8, the slim and stylish LG X120 will present a smooth matte white exterior and blue fashion Trim capable of operating for up to 7 hours on a full charge. You also get round-the-Internet connection with a clock built in AT & T 3G wireless connection, although this remains subject to the area you’re there, and signal strength, so be ready to surf at speeds sometimes and EDGE. Other features include 1GB RAM, HDD 160GB, a 10.1 “screen with backlight LED crystal clear, an integrated camera of 1.3 megapixels, stereo speakers HD and Wi-Fi connectivity. You can pick up Window XP-powered LG X120 for $ 179.99 with a 2-year subscription, AT & T DataConnect service agreement, with a $ 60 per month 5GB plan. [via coolest-gadgets]

Apple iMac 27in LCD Monitor

Posted: 24 Nov 2009 08:09 AM PST

The iMac has always been something of beauty, a shining beacon of what is possible when both form and function are allowed to combine in harmony. We have come some way since the G3 design, too, with its translucent plastic case and its shape has been, while attractive, inevitably dictated by the need to find space for a CRT display. The last generation of iMac is still designed with the screen as his priority, but thanks to technology of LCDs as a whole is much more understated. On this model the 27in screen completely dominates the front of the system.

The front surface is covered with a piece of glass, which sits flush with the aluminum strip at the bottom. And because of its size iMac dominates any surface it is placed. Subtle it is not. Stylish and attractive, it is undeniable. The front is usually clear of all inputs and controls, with the power button reaches around the back on the left, the DVD player should be found on the right side with an SD card reader below it, and the remaining ports of the iMac back to the right as you face the system. These include four USB ports, one FireWire 800 port, 3.5mm audio input jacks and output, an Ethernet port and a Mini DisplayPort. On this model 27in video port will function as both output and input, but it is interesting to note that the model 21.5IN is an outflow.

Incredibly, despite its massive size, the hinge on the 27in iMac is always designed so that one finger is all it takes to adjust the levels of tilt. This is not something you’ll probably notice that rarely, if not all, but it’s just a sign of quality construction gives Apple products. Not that £ 1349 for nothing less is acceptable. The section of metal at the front is also closer than ever, now and as a result looks less out of proportion and, well, simply better. All Apple really needs to do now is to stand height adjustable from the iMac, or better yet provide a VESA mount, and it could well have developed the design.

Although its 27in screen diagonal do not share with the monitors like the Dell 2707WFP, the iMac does not share the same number of pixels. Instead, the 27in iMac has a massive 2560 x 1440 pixels resolution, you may notice is a ratio of 16:9, rather than the ratio 16:10 flown by the most dedicated instructors (for the moment at least). Effectively all Apple has done is cut 160 lines of vertical pixels wide panel 30in. [via trustedreviews]
