Cyberpower’s Gamer Dragon: Can AMD Bring The Game?

Cyberpower sent us a factory-overclocked Phenom II X4 955 system wielding two Radeon HD 4890 cards in CrossFire. We pit the formidable rig against our previous System Builder Marathon Core i7 machine to see if AMD can deliver a viable gaming alternative. Read more

1.5 TB Low-Power HDDs: Green Gets Big

The latest 2 TB hard drives are still expensive, but 1.5 TB disks provide low power consumption at a better cost-to-capacity ratio. We look at offerings from Samsung and Western Digital to determine the value of taking a step down from the flagships. Read more

MSI Eclipse Plus: Does nForce 200 Boost 3-Way SLI?

With 36 lanes of PCIe 2.0, 3-way SLI could be the X58 chipset’s biggest challenge. If that turns out to be true, is Nvidia’s nForce 200 controller hub, which multiplexes the platform's connectivity, a solution? We compare three configurations to find out. Read more

I may buy a friend such a unit for Christmas. Its been sometime since I
owned a 360LX. I remember them being a little slow, but I also remember
me being new to the palmtops back then.

If I do buy this for my friend, what can I expect on the battery life?

Well, from *those* batteries probably not much - they are quite old.
Normal AAs or a newer set of rechargables would be ok I suspect - but
I don't know if non-NiMH rechargables will recharge in a 360LX and you
may have to do some digging online to find new(er) NiMH rechargables.
Here is a short review of it -

It is almost 10 years old. Wow! Still, if it had VPN support, I'd
likely take a look at one for that price too! :-)

My 360lx charges NiMH 2000mAh cells quite happily (as does my 200lx).
Other rechargable technologies are not recommended in the 360lx, and I
don't know why.

Hope this helps,
Nick.

Totally agree with you on that one John.
