What to shop for in the Alienware 4th of July sale

We start with deals on the m16 gaming laptop and m18 gaming laptop . These two laptops have very similar constructions (the m16 has a 16-inch screen while the m18 has an 18-inch screen) and are both highly customizable, so it can be difficult to directly compare the two. The most prominent changes for the m18 over the m16 is it has a full keyboard with numpad, the ability to upgrade that keyboard to Alienware CherryMX mechanical style, and the capacity to upgrade all the way to an RTX 4090 (the m16’s max is a 4070). Check out our Alienware m16 review to get an idea of how it functions.

Next, we want to zero in on the Alienware x14 laptop's deal and the Alienware x16 laptop's deal . As with the previous pair of laptops, these two laptops are quite similar and it is the bigger one that gets the 4090 and the mechanical keyboard variant options. Both of the ‘x’ series laptops are tenkeyless. Our comparison of the m16 and x16 will give you a good idea at how the two series compare.

Finally, check out the deal on the Aurora R16 , Alienware’s high-powered, RTX 4060 equipped desktop. In addition to the 4060, it has an Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Even if you are skeptical of prebuilt desktops, as many gamers are, you should check out our Alienware Aurora R16 review, which labels it as a “prebuilt worth buying.” It is also surprisingly nice to look at, for a desktop PC and all.

Of course, these are just our suggestions for what to look at. The full Alienware 4th of July PC and laptop sale is yours to peruse. Just tap the button below to start shopping for your ideal machine.

Are classroom screens making children less cognitively capable? Experts are divided
A neuroscientist wants fewer screens in schools, but not everyone agrees
school-screentime

Jared Cooney Horvath has spent over 15 years studying how people learn, and he says the picture for today's kids isn't good. The neuroscientist and former teacher argues that classroom technology is quietly eroding how children think and retain knowledge, according to a report from The Guardian.

Horvath's new book, The Digital Delusion, lays out the case that generational progress in health and education has stalled since around 2000, right around the time kids started to get access to screens. Concerns about early exposure run even deeper, with some researchers now warning that screen habits formed before age two carry their own developmental risks.

Mac users now have an easier way to install apps from DMG files
With EasyDMG, you'll never have to drag and drop a DMG file again.

If you have ever installed a new app on a Mac, you already know the slightly tedious dance that comes with it. You download a DMG file, double-click it, wait for the virtual disk to mount, drag the app icon into your Applications folder, and delete the leftover file. This installation method has barely changed since it debuted alongside Mac OS X back in 2001, and developer Jeff Schumann finally got fed up enough to fix it himself.

I tried this Mac music app, and now I wish macOS had it built-in
Computer, Electronics, Person

I always use my free time to hunt for interesting Mac apps on Reddit, and somehow I keep finding new ones worth trying. Some make parts of macOS a little easier, while others quickly become apps I wonder how I ever lived without. But recently, I came across one that fits into my workday almost perfectly. Whenever I’m working on something that needs my full attention, I put on my work playlist and let it run in the background. Music has basically become part of my focus routine. And that’s exactly why Gramola caught my attention. It’s a simple Mac app, but it has made listening to music while I work so much better.

My music is now just a swipe away
