By Andrew Liszewski It was first officially introduced to the world at CES 2009, but today Sony has announced a rather impressive upgrade to their VAIO P Lifestyle PC. (Remember, it’s not a netbook!)

Simple Adapter Turns Your Tripod Into A Laptop Stand (Monopods Need Not Apply)
By Andrew Liszewski At first glance I worried that this adapter plate from Thanko that allows you to perch your laptop atop an unused tripod could lead to a nasty fall, turning your expensive hardware into a pile of unusable electronic bits.

[CES 2010] Lenovo Skylight Smartbook Is Smart, Stylish
By Evan Ackerman When someone (like Lenovo) says that they’ve got this laptop that runs on a cell phone processor, and that they’re calling it a “Smartbook,” your first thought might be a mental eyeroll.
