We May Be a Step Closer to Seeing the Original ‘Star Wars’ Again

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-09-19 12:30:24

James Bricknell/CNET While knowing what you want in a gas grill is important, knowing what you can spend is the first step when buying a grill. This is because you may want a six-burner grill, with a hot plate on the side, and a searing deck, but if you've only got $350 to spend, you're going to have to make some compromises.

A 2-in-1 is a laptop that can go from a standard clamshell laptop configuration to a tablet setup.
