Frigidaire's stylish 30-inch electric range cooks consistently (pictures)

For $899 the Frigidaire Gallery Electric Range has the chops to cook well and look good doing it. Standing 30 inches wide, this slide-in model is also compact enough to shoehorn into tight kitchens.

This oven's a real looker

Sporting a premium stainless steel skin, the Frigidaire Gallery 30-Inch Electric Range looks pricey.

Touch to control

Along with physical knobs the Frigidaire Gallery 30-Inch Electric Range uses a touchscreen to handle most oven tasks.

Dial it up or down

You'll find physical burner knobs on the Frigidaire Gallery 30-Inch Electric Range. Unfortunately, they are made from cheap-feeling plastic.

Both the oven handle and warmer tray handle are built from sturdy stainless steel.

This omelette's for you

Who says you can't make nice omelettes on an electric stove?

Basic chicken at a premium price

Since the Frigidaire Gallery lacks a convection mode, roasted chicken tests yielded fowl with less-than-crispy skin.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
