Several months after it agreed to continue Intel's line of NUC mini-PCs, ASUS has announced its first new NUC-branded mini-PC, the ASUS ROG (Republic of Gamers) NUC.

Intel announced today that ASUS has agreed to develop future NUC mini-PCs and support Intel’s 10th- to 13th-generation NUCs.

This past week, I’ve experimented with using a wide range of hardware devices with the Razer Book 13 and Apple’s M1-based MacBook Pro.

After struggling for the better part of a month to get Windows 7 installed on my older Intel NUC---I’m currently using a newer model each day as my primary PC, with Windows 10---I’m now able to move to this aging OS fulltime as I had originally planned. I think. The issue, obvious in hindsight, was…

Intel is well-known for its PC microprocessors, but it deserves a bit of credit for its innovative work on actual PCs as well.

Eager to put the "Skylake" disaster behind it, Intel quietly revealed this week that it is now shipping that chipset's successor, called "Kaby Lake." This is the Intel Core chipset that will power the next-generation Surface devices that many expect to ship in early 2017.

While the Intel NUC will always have a special place in my heart, small form factor (SFF) PCs like the Acer Veriton Vero Mini have their advantages too.

Acer's Veriton Vero Mini is an eco-friendly small form factor (SFF) PC and an interesting business-class alternative to the Intel NUC.

The HP Envy Move is a delightful AIO that emphatically makes the case that innovation is alive and well in the PC market.

I have always had a special place in my heart for small form factor (SFF) PCs, and the HP Elite Mini 800 G9 is a great reminder of why.

Well, it's finally May, and the weather is finally warming after a terrible April, but don't go outside until you've read through this mammoth installment of Ask Paul. There's a lot going on this week. PC upgrade noelt1955 asks: Hi Paul. I retired early last year and am currently using a (docked) Surface Pro 3…

Back in December, I wrote about the possibility of using a desktop PC at home again instead of the More Mobile setup I successfully adopted about a year and a half ago. To clear, this has nothing to do with the efficacy of a More Mobile configuration, which in my case involves using a docked…

I was recently organizing some older computers to give away. Among them was the second of three Intel NUCs I’ve owned, which is based on an 8th-generation Intel Core chipset. I brought it up for the first time in many, many months, noticed it was on Windows 10 version 21H1, and decided to check whether…

After a curiously long short week, we can kick off this normal weekend a bit early with some great reader questions. Happy Friday! What makes a Store app a Store app? jeroendegrebber asks: Earlier this week, I installed Audacity through the Windows 11 Store. I like Audacity, have used it before, and was looking forward…

This past week, I wrote about my latest attempt to move to a more mobile computing setup for both productivity and entertainment. This isn’t new, per se, in that I’m always testing new setups, and I often move from computer to computer over time, for review purposes and in general. But this time is also…

With an eye on a more mobile future, I’ve been experimenting with alternative PC setups for both productivity and entertainment. This includes laptops and external displays, which may seem contradictory. But this isn’t additive: though I understand the appeal, I am infamously uninterested in multi-display setups. Instead, I’m curious about how using portable displays can…
