Consumer Reports Takes a Look at the New VIZIO Touch PC Line-up
Consumer Reports gives huge shout out to the new VIZIO Touch PC Line-up. Check out what they have to say below and then head over to their site to see the full article.
Overall this laptop’s performance was excellent. It was among the fastest with productivity and Web-based tasks such as word processing, Web browsing, and scanning for malware. It was among the fastest for viewing and editing photos, and among the fastest for viewing and editing HD videos. You’ll be able to play demanding video games on this system, with smooth graphics and quick response. The sound on movies, music, and games was acceptable with the built-in speakers, but if you’re looking for the best sound you might want to add speakers or use headphones.
This laptop is a great choice for traveling. At 10.25 hours, battery life was superb, and long enough to get you through a workday with some battery life to spare. At 4.8 pounds, this is lightweight for a laptop this size.

Ryan Briscoe Races VIZIO Hulu No. 9
“I absolutely think I can win it this year.” -Ryan Briscoe
Ryan Briscoe was the first on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the No. 8 NTT DATA car and the last on the 2.5-mile oval as the second day of practice for the 97th Indianapolis 500 Mile Race drew to a close. It just felt … “normal.”
“When I went out, it was like I never left driving IndyCars,” said Briscoe, the 2012 pole sitter for the 500 Mile Race. “It feels good to be back in the groove of things.”
Briscoe, who competed in 14 races during his first IZOD IndyCar Series season as a teammate to Scott Dixon and Darren Manning in 2005, has seven Indy 500 starts (two top-five finishes, 31 laps led). He’s logged more than a race worth of laps already this week on the 2.5-mile oval in preparation for the May 26 race.
