    I went hands-on with Surface Laptop Ultra, and discovered some interesting things that Microsoft isn't yet ready to talk about. It has a special USB-C port, one that's a little larger than normal USB-C ports. I asked Microsoft why, and they wouldn't tell me. Upon closer look, I […

    Microsoft announced a NVIDIA RTX Spark based dev box, and I love that they went for a really out-there design instead of just aping the Mac Studio. The question comes down to price again though. $2K is an instantly interesting Mac Studio rival. $4K and up is dead on arrival. [ima…

    For the first time since about 2010 I was sad to not be at Computex this week. I'm genuinely excited about Nvidia's RTX Spark. The idea of having AI agents running locally on a laptop or desktop—not always in the cloud—is one of the most interesting shifts in computing. But—and […
