Intel’s Core Ultra 200V family is being positioned as the x86 answer to Microsoft’s Copilot+ ambitions — a silicon platform that combines CPU, GPU and a beefed‑up Neural Processing Unit (NPU) to deliver local AI features in Windows 11 — and OEMs and Microsoft now say those processors will unlock...

Microsoft’s latest pitch is blunt: if you want to be ready for the next generation of computing, buy an AI‑powered Windows 11 machine — specifically, a Copilot+ PC — because older “AI” branded laptops may not be capable of delivering the full set of features Microsoft calls the future of the PC...

Lenovo’s new Yoga Pro 9i Aura Edition arrived at CES 2026 promising a lot more than a brighter screen: Lenovo says the 16‑inch creator laptop pairs a staggering 1,600‑nit tandem OLED with Panther Lake Core Ultra silicon, an optional NVIDIA RTX 5070 mobile GPU, and a redesigned thermal system...
Loss32 is a deliberately provocative thought experiment: what if a Linux distribution were not merely capable of running Windows programs, but was built from the ground up to be a Win32 runtime with the Linux kernel as its substrate? The idea — sketched by a developer who goes by the handle...
