    BlueMoon writes "TeamXbox released information today about the launch of the Voodoo VIBE, a Central Home Theater and Entertainment PC running on Windows MCE 2005 that is designed to sit in your home office as a central media server PC. What's special is that you can then hook up a custom VIBE XBOX to your TV that will allow you to record and pause live TV. You can also stream videos, display slide shows, play MP3, play live FM Radio, and even burn recordings to DVD from your VIBE XBOX on the VIBE HTPC."

  2. High Performance Gaming Laptops On A Budget?

    Cory Tunney writes "In my quest to find a gaming laptop that will fulfill my gaming fantasies, but not kick me in the wallet at the same time, I've come across many options. Alienware is out of the question, as are companies like VooDooPC, but out of the rough comes companies less known but with impressive hardware. Sager seems to have won over a pretty large group of fans, and iBuyPower also seems to put out a decent amount of bang for the buck. However, when it comes down to it, I am still left with several options and I do not know what road to travel. So here's the jist of it - a system with a price tag around $2,000, a high-end video card (Radeon or the equivalent NVidia) and a system with an AMD would be a plus, but I will not rule out Intel if they can offer similar performance. So, Slashdot readers, what systems can you recommend?"

    Petaris writes "For all of you hard core gamers out there a new choice is availiable for gaming notebooks. Introducing the Falcon Northwest FragBook. This notebook will be in direct competition with gaming notebooks from several competetors including Alienware and VooDoo. Falcon-nw, VooDoo, and more recently Alienware are the place to look for insanely high end and usually fairly expensive gaming systems. The gaming notebook, a more recent arrival in the industry, promises more recent processors than are commonly available for notebooks. Just make sure you stock up on batteries or settle in next to an outlet. :)"
