Description: Low Power PC Picks, 2019 Headphone & Earbud Predictions, Linux on Huawei Matebook X Pro, SanDisk Flashback Tested ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ 00:48 SanDisk Flashback Never Lose Another Thumbdrive Again??? We’re down with that! Though, technically SanDisk’s new Flashback means never lose the -contents- of a thumb drive again. (Plus you get a searchable cloud backup!) Are the caveats? How much does it cost? Does it work on any SanDisk drive? Watch the video to find out! sandisk.com/loadflashback 08:36 Linux On The Huawei Matebook X Pro Shannon reviewed the Huawei Matebook X Pro a few weeks ago… watch the video to find what happens when she installs Linux Ubuntu in a dual boot configuration alongside Windows 10. (Hint: it works really well!) consumer.huawei.com/us/tablets/matebook-x-pro ubuntu.com/#download 13:58 2019 Headphone Predictions with Lauren Dragan Late last year I had a chance ask Wirecutter’s headphone (and earbud!) mavin, aka Senior Staff Writer, Lauren Dragan, what she was looking forward to this year… here’s what she had to say! thewirecutter.com/electronics/headphones twitter.com/LaurenDragan 24:14 Low Power PC Recommendation Sean has a first gen Core i7 desktop, and writes, “I use it 8 hours a day to drive two 19" monitors. It plays video and audio podcasts while I work on a separate laptop and 42“ 4k tv. What can I upgrade my mid tower to that saves on electricity and doesn't dump massive amounts of heat into my SE corner 2nd floor office? Are there chrome-desktops?” We’ve talk Core i7 920 (first gen) power consumption at idle and peak, then show the HUGE drops in power consumption with a modern CPU like the Ryzen 7 1700, Chromeboxes like the Asus Chromebox 3, the cost and heat, and more in the video! tomshardware.com/reviews/overclock-core-i7,2268-10.html tomshardware.co.uk/amd-ryzen-7-1700-cpu-review,review-33854-8.html amzn.to/2T0XxWn ark.intel.com/products/95442/Intel-Core-i3-7100U-Processor-3M-Cache-2-40-GHz- rapidtables.com/calc/electric/electricity-calculator.html rapidtables.com/convert/power/Watt_to_BTU.html 29:51 Thanks Hak5!!!
