Here's the chance to get your hands on the last deals from Amazon's Big Spring Sale 2025!

What is Amazon's Big Spring Sale? Amazon's Big Spring Sale event is a good excuse for you to get the products that have been sitting in your wishlist for a better price. There's a good selection of discounts across the board, including for tech products, laptops, storage drives, mini PCs, keyboards, mice, and more.

We're already seeing new all-time lows for some of our favorite stuff, and even for products that haven't had a proper price drop in a while.

Some of these Big Spring Sale deals are exclusive to Prime members. If you aren't subscribed yet, I recommend trying out a free 30-day trial so you can score these big discounts and play with the other perks like Prime Video, Prime Music, and Prime Gaming.

‘I will make it perfect.' New Intel CEO promises to fix what's wrong

Tan, who has served about two weeks on the job, didn't indicate any major changes would be forthcoming. For now, he emphasized that Intel's next-generation Panther Lake chips would ship this year, on the Intel 18A process node that is the legacy of Tan's predecessor, Pat Gelsinger.

Gelsinger, a former chief technical officer at Intel who also promised a return to the engineering-driven days of Intel legends like Gordon Moore, was forced out in December after pushing through a series of layoffs, and watching the company's stock price plunge. Chief financial officer David Zinsner and Intel Products chief Michelle Johnston Holthaus served as co-CEOs before returning to those positions. Now, Tan will take the helm.

Tan is well-regarded, though he served in the semiconductor-adjacent industry of electronic design automation as the chief executive of Cadence Design Systems from 2008 until 2021. He studied quantum physics in Singapore, moved to the United States to pursue a doctorate in nuclear engineering at MIT, then dropped out of the program after the Three Mile Island accident occurred. He later became a venture capitalist and a member of Intel's board.

Tan cited a visit to Henry David Thoreau's cabin, where he spent a half hour just admiring the craftsmanship. "A lot of our business is building craftsmanship," Tan said.

Now, he's being asked to lead one of America's largest chipmaker as it extends those chipmaking abilities to third-party customers as well via an Int

Here's a new trick to installing Windows 11 without a Microsoft account


This command line script bypassed the Microsoft Account requirement when installing Windows 11, so testers could install and log into Windows 11 with a local account instead. (Theoretically, it's possible to manually create the same registry entry that BypassNRO.cmd created, but doing it this way is tedious and requires good registry knowledge. You can find the necessary registry entry at BleepingComputer).

How to watch the Switch 2 Nintendo Direct
With a Tomodachi Life sequel teased and the last few Switch 1 games announced, the deck is cleared for Nintendo's next video presentation on the Switch 2. The appropriately titled "Nintendo Direct: Switch 2" presentation is slated for April 2 at 9AM ET / 6AM PT, and will stream on Nintendo's YouTube channel. 

Nintendo revealed what the new console looks like in a short teaser video in January, which confirmed details like the device's larger screen, and teased things like a new Mario Kart and some sort of mouse functionality for the Switch 2's Joy-Con controllers. The company's April 2 presentation should answer even more questions about what's exactly different about the Switch successor, how much it'll cost and when it'll launch.

Alexa is out, but missing a lot of features Amazon demoed last month
If there's one thing you can count on with AI tools is that they'll launch without most of the promised features. It happened with Apple Intelligence. It happened with Galaxy AI. Now, it's happening with Alexa , Amazon's AI-heavy upgrade to its virtual assistant. The tool is officially available but it doesn't do a whole lot, according to reporting by The Washington Post.

The paper reviewed a number of internal company documents that noted the delay of many features. These documents suggest that a bunch of tools won't be available for two months or longer. Alexa users won't be able to use the platform to order takeout on Grubhub or identify family members via camera to remind them to do chores.

The same goes for that neat-sounding tool that the company says will auto-generate a story to entertain kids. Also, Alexa cannot be used to brainstorm gift ideas or order groceries. Finally, there isn't a browser-based version available. The company says these delays are because the features do not "meet Amazon's standards for public release."

So what can Alexa do right now? I haven't gotten a chance to fool around with it, but the
