NEC Display Solutions has announced three new AccuSync LCD displays for desktop use, all of which offer widescreen aspect ratio and no-touch auto-adjustment for folks for whom adjusting color balance, brightness, and contrast once in a blue moon is just too much work.

"The proliferation of applications and Web-based content has really created the need for more screen real estate at home and in the work place," said Andy Anderson, Product Manager for NEC Display Solutions, in a statement. "While added horizontal screen space on these new AccuSync displays allows for easier multi-tasking, the feature set and industry-recognized quality deliver the performance and reliability consumers expect from the NEC brand."

The new AccuSync Wide Screen displays will come in 19, 20-, and 22-inch sizes; the 19-inch ASLCD193WXM model sports a 1,440 by 900 resolution while the 20-inch ASLCD203WXM and 22-inch ASLCD223WXM pack 1,680 by 1,050 displays into their frames. The systems sport integrated multimedia speakers, a headphone jack, VESA-complaint wall- and arm-mounting, NEC’s Ambix technology for digital and analog inputs, and NEC’s AccuColor system with five presets which enable users to adjust onscreen color and calibrate the monitors for a variety of different situations. However, if the thought of adjusting a monitor is just too much to bear, the displays also feature No Touch Auto Adjust technology which—you guessed it—automatically calibrates the monitor when connecting it to a new system.

The displays each feature 1,000:1 contrast ratios, 5 ms response times, and are EnergyStar 4 complaint. The 19-inch model is available now with an estimated street price of $229.99, while the 20- and 22-inch models should be available in May for $289.99 and $359.99, respectively.

The next MacBook Air could arrive early next year, but OLED will have to wait
Apple’s next MacBook Air may look familiar on the outside, with M6 expected to be the main upgrade.
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Apple may be about to give the MacBook Pro one of its biggest upgrades in years, but the MacBook Air apparently has to wait a little longer for its turn.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is planning to refresh the MacBook Air in early 2027. The upcoming model is expected to stick with a non-OLED display, even as Apple prepares to move its higher-end MacBook Pro lineup to OLED and touch support.

Apple wants touchscreens on Macs, but its MacBook lineup could get weird

Apple's MacBook lineup could soon resemble a restaurant menu with 17 different ways to order a burger. The company is expanding its laptop range across more price points, performance levels, and display technologies, with OLED touchscreens potentially bringing another premium tier into the mix. That's great news for buyers who want options, but Apple's product lineup could use a little decluttering before things get silly.

Moonshot tells Kimi AI to code away, but leave the hacking alone
Moonshot is clipping Kimi AI’s hacking wings before letting it loose
Moonshot AI

Chinese AI startup Moonshot AI is deliberately limiting the hacking capabilities of its latest artificial intelligence model, highlighting a growing dilemma for the industry: how do companies make AI more powerful without making cyberattacks easier to carry out?

The company introduced Kimi K3.1 Pro on October 24, describing it as a highly capable, open-weight model with around 3 trillion parameters. Unlike conventional AI services that operate entirely through a provider's servers, open-weight models allow developers to download the underlying model files, run them on their own systems, and modify how they work.
