By DT Staff Published October 25, 2009

Computer manufacturer Alienware today announced a new version of their Aurora 7500 desktop. This souped up computer features several new â€œcutting edge advancementsâ€.

The Aurora 7500, said Alienware, now comes with a liquid cooling technology they designed. This delivers what Alienware says is up to a 30% improvement in thermal performance and is quieter because there are no internal fans. Also featured is the Nvidia GeForce 7800 GTX KO ACS3 graphics card and Microsoft’s Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005.

The new cooling technology is also available on Alienware’s Aurora 5500, Area-51 5500, and Area-51 7500 desktops, as well as MJ-12 workstations, while the GeForce 7800 GTX KO ACS3 is now available on Area-51 7500 and ALX systems.

“The Aurora 7500, backed by the power of AMD Athlon 64 FX-57 processors and NVIDIA SLI graphics technology, was already a top choice of gamers,” said Patrick Cooper, director of product management for Alienware. “By adding these latest incredible enhancements, the Aurora 7500 continues to push performance barriers.”

The new model plans layouts before generating images, with precise editing and support for 30 aspect ratios.

AI can generate all kinds of pretty pictures, but getting it to spell a headline correctly or keep a poster's layout intact can be another story. Canva wants to fix that with Canva Craft, its first in-house image generation model. Rather than focusing primarily on photographs, Craft is designed around the posters, presentations, social media graphics, and other visual content people actually create. The goal is simple: spend less time fixing AI's mistakes and more time making something useful.

Mori might be the cutest AI companion robot yet, and it reacts to you like a pet

The Pokémon-like companion can blink, dance, act shy, and respond to what is happening around it.

OKA Mori The Nature Companion AI Home Robot

With AI progressing so fast, it's only a matter of time before we start getting AI companions like the ones we used to see in movies like R2-D2, Wall-E, or Baymax. Now, Singapore-based OKA Technology has unveiled Mori, a cute little AI companion that looks less like a conventional home robot and more like someone turned the Pokémon Foongus into a table lamp.

Mori isn't meant to clean your house or control your smart home, but to serve as what OKA calls a "Nature Companion." It uses subtle movements, warm lighting, nature-inspired sounds, and small reactions to make its presence around the house feel calming rather than distracting. Mori can sit quietly while you read, sway along to music, welcome you when you enter a room, or encourage you to slow down for a moment without requiring a screen or a conversation.

The browser that revolutionizes tab management is finally riding into the sunset.

Arc browser farewell note.

Arc browser is shutting down on December 22, following a long spell of maintenance-only work as the company behind it moves forward with its successor, Dia. Earlier today, The Browser Company announced that the beloved web browser will ride into the sunset in two months, but will continue development of the Dia browser.

"That's not an easy sentence to write. We spent years building Arc and celebrating each and every release along the way: we have so much pride and love for what we made alongside the Arc community," says the company.
