Since Framework designed its modular laptop to be repairable and upgradable, it (hopefully) comes as no surprise that, in iFixit’s recent teardown video, the laptop was awarded a perfect 10 out of 10 score. This makes it a solid choice for anyone wanting a laptop they can repair themselves.

The Federal Trade Commission told Congress "there is scant evidence to support manufacturers' justifications for repair restrictions" in a Thursday report that promised to consider new rules or enforcement around consumers' right to repair their goods.

Intel's high-speed port should arrive in more than half of PCs in 2022. Thunderbolt, Intel's super-speedy connection technology, isn't widely used. But that may change in the coming year, as more computer makers incorporate the USB competitor into their new models.

As we move to cloud-based Desktop-as-a-Service, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see Chrome OS, the original DaaS, moving past macOS as the No. 2 desktop.

Torvalds, Linux's creator, finds AMD's processors deliver a much bigger bang for the buck than Intel's CPUs.

How fast is fast? Taking a trip with supercomputers from 1964 until today.

Though I’ve long thought that tomorrow's desktop will be cloud-based, even I didn't expect the next desktop-as-a-service would be macOS running on the AWS cloud.

If you’d rather have a Windows 7-like interface on your old computer, try installing Linux Mint.

During last week’s Apple’s iPhone 12 event, the Cupertino-based company was proud to tout its environmental initiatives. Its offices, data centers and stores currently run on 100% renewable energy and the company is aiming for net zero “climate impact” by 2030.

A few weeks ago I wrote about various ways to find the outdoor air quality in your location but now I have my own air monitors and recently borrowed a high-end air filter and monitoring system for indoor use.

Decades ago, people predicted that IBM and its mainframes would soon be history. But then IBM and Red Hat brought Linux to the mainframe and things would never be the same again.

Fedora, Red Hat's community Linux for developers, is finally available from a mainstream PC vendor, Lenovo.

Apple has mastered making excellent smartwatches, but its rivals haven't been up to its challenge. Until now.

Chromebooks are the ideal tool for remote learning: Secure, affordable, easy to manage, and easy to use. No wonder they're so popular with students and teachers alike.

If you want a free software and security first Linux desktop, keep an eye out for Purism's forthcoming Librem 14 laptop.

We love our gadgets and new tech, but sometimes we -- or their makers -- get way too excited about them. Sometimes, though, great successes emerge from these failures.

Apple announced the transition to ARM at this year's WWDC and the move has been largely welcomed given its potential for seamless computing across mobile and desktop. Apple also made available a Developer Transition Kit (DTK) to enable developers to get started with creating apps that run on macOS 11 Big Sur powered by Apple Silicon. Now, several Geekbench 5 benchmarks have now leaked despite the use of the DTK being governed by a non-disclosure agreement (NDA).

As expected, developers with early access to Apple silicon-based transition kits have leaked some early benchmark scores. And it’s bad news for Surface Pro X and Windows 10 on ARM fans.

What is the first thing you do when you get a new pair of headphones? Some of us might unbox it and put up an Instagram story. Others might immediately put on their favourite playlist and crank up the bass. However, if you ask any audiophile what they do with a new pair of headphones, their answer will most likely be: burning them in. Audiophiles are discerning music listeners who are motivated to get the very best sound quality out of their headphones, speakers, and audio equipment in general.

For the first time, an ARM-powered supercomputer took first place in the TOP500 supercomputer competition.
