I have been playing around with 2 cool netbooks – a new category of notebooks that promises to be lighter, and also cheaper. Based on the feedback, it looks like this has not only revolutionize the way we play, but also have attracted a whole new batch of enthusiastic users, thereby increasing the market significantly, and broadening ownership.

The first is the second version of the Asus EEE PC , which was one of the first bestsellers that launched it all. The Asus Eee PC 900 is a new version that still promises to be less than one kilogram, and of the same size as before, but is slightly more expensive, but have more features.

First is that it has upgraded the specs as well. Instead of the 512 mb, it is now 1 gigabyte memory. It now has a bigger 8.9 inch widescreen ( it was 7.9 inch before), and a higher resolution

What Happens when you Respond to Spam Mail?

In this experiment, it confirms what we believe all along:

- when you reply, you don’t get unsubscribed.
- when you click, you get a lot of malware.
- when you give your financial bank account, it will be hacked.
- when you give your physical address, you will get a deluge of snail mail offers.
- there’s not that much legitimacy in what they are offering.

By the time it was all over, after every bank-account phishing scam, Nigerian bank scheme, and offer for medication, adult content and just plain free stuff had been pursued. “I was horrified,” says Mooney, a realtor by profession. “It’s all snake oil. I’m amazed at what true junk is out there when you’re clicking through on e-mail.”

What you Say can Come Back to Haunt you

Among the big number of news that came out about Bill Gates retiring, some are really funny.

This is a collection of saying that Jobs have said about Bill Gates, and the other way around.

Apple and Microsoft have had a love hate relationship for 30 years.

At that time, they worked together, and they lambasted each other. I believe there was one time Microsoft came in to save Apple, and there are of course numerous times that they just try to showcase who is better.

At the end of the day, I think some of the quotes will be quoted out of context - which is why we always have to be careful - something you say 20 years ago can always come back to haunt you - just like Bill Gates purportedly saying that 640k of memory is about all we need….

You can always tell whether you’re on a Mac or on a PC. Just stick your applications in there and see whether they’ll run.

  • +half our life is spent trying to find something to do with what we have rushed through life trying to save.
  • Just boarded the plane and found out that I brought bottled water in my hand carry. Ha! Got thru!
  • +After reading on mgt books for over 20 years, I can say many of them are gross generalizations, ambiguous, inconsistent or just wrong.
  • +when in doubt how a person would react in a specific circumstance, remember past behavior is a good indicator of future behavior.
  • Just meet an old friend. He has 3 sons 3 6 and 9 yrs old. They are delivered caesarian and all three have the same birthdays.
  • Now on another flight. My bottled water is still on my backpack and once again it passed security! Whew! Makes you worry.
