What stains? This GE washer is a cleaning machine (pictures)

GE's $1,400 GFWR4805FMC does a very good job of cleaning, but it isn't all that easy to use.

It has a 4.8 cubic-foot capacity.

That's large enough to fit bulky blankets and other oversize items.

It offers a lot of features, but its control panel is a little cluttered.

The digital display that shows how much time is remaining in a cycle is difficult to read at certain angles.

Its dispenser for detergent, fabric softener and bleach is easy to open and close.

The dark-gray metallic finish looks nice, although the display does detract from the premium look somewhat.

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.
