Microsoft and Samsung’s latest moves mean Windows 11’s Copilot is no longer an experiment confined to a handful of flagship laptops—more Galaxy Book models are now getting the AI features Microsoft has been rolling into Windows 11, and the changes include a taskbar Copilot shortcut, a hands‑free...

Global PC shipments climbed sharply in the third quarter of 2025 as a calendar-driven Windows 10 end-of-support (EoS) wave collided with vendor-led pushes for AI-capable hardware, producing a quarter where enterprise and education procurement masked softer consumer demand. Gartner’s preliminary...

Windows 11 can turn a humble USB port into a Swiss Army knife for rescue, security, networking, and mobility—if you know where to look and how to prepare. What most people plug in for charging or file transfers can also be a life‑saving recovery drive, a portable Windows environment, a hardware...

Global PC shipments climbed in the third quarter of 2025 as a wave of Windows 10 end‑of‑support (EoS) refreshes intersected with vendor pushes for AI‑capable hardware, producing an uneasy mix of strong enterprise buying, muted consumer sales and notable regional divergence.

Microsoft’s latest Windows 11 update turns Copilot from a sidebar helper into a full‑time, multimodal assistant you can talk to, show your screen, and — with permission — ask to act on your behalf, a shift that rewrites how many people will interact with their PCs. The company has introduced an...

Intel’s latest play is simple to state and hard to ignore: move AI inference off the cloud and onto the PC — and build those PCs in the United States. Background Intel this week unveiled the Core Ultra Series 3 family, code‑named Panther Lake, the first client SoCs manufactured on the company’s...

PC shipments climbed again in the third quarter of 2025 — but the recovery is uneven: global volumes reached roughly 75.8 million units, up about 9.4% year‑on‑year, while regional patterns, tariff shocks, education refresh cycles and a halting enterprise migration to Windows 11 have combined to...
