Desktop computers have never been more affordable than they are right now. You can get a surprisingly capable machine for cheaper than ever before, and prices will likely continue to fall in the coming months and years. But if you need a truly powerful PC for gaming or hardcore computing, the price will never be the first concern. You need lightning-fast processors, tons of RAM and storage, and top-of-the-line graphics cards that can feed multiple displays.

Lucky for you, Amazon has a killer sale going right now on two different cutting-edge PCs with more power than most people would know what to do with.

The presumptive Republican nominee for president of the United States of America, Donald Trump, made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live this Wednesday.

As has become the norm for his talk show appearances, it was a relatively mellow affair, with Trump avoiding any of the colorful language or boisterous claims that draw crowds to his rallies all across the country, but there was one moment in particular that stood out like a sore thumb among the rest of the banter.

This backpack computer makes a PC-grade virtual reality experience portable

$%name This backpack computer makes a PC grade virtual reality experience portable by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

One of the problems with virtual reality is that it’s not really portable. You’ve got your Google Cardboard and Gear VR products that can turn your mobile phone into a VR machine, but that’s not the powerful VR experience many users want. That’s what the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive are for. But such advanced VR headsets have to be tethered to a computer that can deliver enough horsepower to offer you a more immersive VR experience.

Luckily, some companies have figured out a clever way to offer users a mobile VR experience that is PC-grade. MSI is one of them, and the company has just come up with a Backpack PC that will let you take VR anywhere you want to go. Or at least, it will prevent you from tripping over wires.

Whether or not you would ever even consider purchasing a Mac, there’s no question that Apple’s MacBook Air line of notebook computers completely changed the way PC makers design laptops. Style and portability became just as important as performance, and we’ve all benefitted as a result. Now, we’re finally getting to a point where Windows PC makers are outdoing the MacBook Air by making laptops just as sleek and stylish but way more powerful.

Case in point: The new LG gram 15″ Laptop, which could very well be the ultimate laptop.
