Top Asus Eee PC in the Mid 2008



Asus apparently really made use of the momentum was increasingly famous him brand Eee PC belonging to him. In the middle of this 2008 emerged several new Eee PC versions netbook that was made fill several segment holes of the more specific market. The uniqueness, all with the same design but the contents spec him different. To that the version screen 10 inch, the measurement of the whole became somewhat bigger compared to the measurement screen 8,9 inch (saw his photograph was supervised). Any they?

Asus Eee PC 901 (release in June 2008), with the atomic processor with bluetooth, 1 GB DDR2 RAM, 1024x600 screen and 20 GB SSD. Afterwards after that was endless emerged the other Eee PC series 1000 (the Atom, 10 inch, 40 GB SSD, bluetooth), 1000H (the Atom, 10 inch with HDD 80 GB, bluetooth), Eee PC 1000HD (the processor of Intel® Dothan 353/ 900MHz, HDD 80 GB), Eee PC 904 (8,9 inch, Celeron 900 and HDD 80 GB). Intel® Dothan was the other name from Pentium Intelligence M. that in the special design for laptop. Confused ok? Chose that in accordance with your requirement. Don't be confused, that was important therefore Asus want to showed to the public that they cared about the consumer and wanted to provide as much as possible the choice for the market, depended on their respective requirement.
The price? The Asus Eee PC version 901 and Asus Eee PC 1000 around USD 599 above, Asus Eee PC 1000H USD 550 above, that was other still could not I confirmation here. Along with the picture that was taken from Computex in Taiwan some time before.

New Lenovo ThinkPad X301 Againts Apple MacBook Air


Astonishment thinly Apple MacBook Air? But still wanted to continue to use Windows or Linux? Please his correspondence that will be launched by Lenovo (previously IBM, afterwards was bought by Lenovo China). Lenovo super thin that was given by the number of the version X301 this used SSD technology (Solid State Disk) and not hardisk normally, was the same as MacBook Air. SSD was based on the memory kilisan (equally precisely with technology your flashdisk). So really will save the place in square that was very thin and narrow. The specification was made very high (the high end) so as his price was also extraordinary expensive. The price was estimated beginning with USD 2599. The date of the launching was on August 26 2008. The version WiMAX just will emerge the end 2009 (for a long time OK? ). Read also the News MacBooc Air that I wrote at the time of his launching previously.
Then why the book notes small and thin like this? I still remembered when previously Apple iPod emerged with thin technology of this kind. A child the JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL that used and always put to the pocket of trousers of the genie's trousers finally bit the finger because iPod him was broken, because of thin him. Likewise to laptop thin this, was used in the situation what OK? For you who had money and wanted to appear the difference, so this his choice. But for the person that give priority to functionality with the barely adequate pocket, it seems not this product his choice. Back to you yourself...

His processor was very new, used Core Intelligence 2 Duo ULV (ultra the low voltage) U9300 (1.2GHz) and U9400 (1.4GHz) with 6MB L2 supplies and 1066MHz FSB. till today the version of the Intelligence processor that will be used this was not yet released by Intelligence personally. Memory as far as 2GB of DDR3 RAM. SSD that was used also highest the class, the capacity 80GB or 128GB (the version 128 GB just will enter the market in September 2008). Compared with UMPC like Asus Eee PC that only until 32 GB. generally, laptop this had the measurement was very high, but will be sold without the incentive to optics, and carefully also wore him because very thin. It did not yet have the technical data the dimension of his measurement, but from the picture, apparently will not be as thin as MacBook Air that could be put the envelope all.

Along with information complete concerning his specification in English that was obtained by me from various sources: Core Intelligence 2 Duo ULV (ultra low voltage) U9300 (1.2GHz) and U9400 (1.4GHz) with 6MB L2 cache and 1066MHz FSB. Support up to 2GB of DDR3 RAM. SSDs of the 80GB or 128GB (beforehand in X300 only had the option 64GB). DisplayPort Jack Is included. Mobile broadband quality and GPS. Compared with Apple MacBook Air: Processor Core Intelligence 2 of DUO 1.80GHZ. OS Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard. Solid-State Drive (SSD) 64GB. RAM Max 2GB. the Price revolved USD 2200. Screen 13,3 inch.

New Dell Inspiron 910, Killer Netbook


Why did I like that be enthusiastic covered the UMPC development or netbook this? Because of the segment of this computer that was believed in by me 100% can bring the world of the utilization of information technology could be very fast progressed. Imagine millions of Indonesian school children used netbook cheap that was sophisticated, terkoneksi to the Internet, was guaranteed our nation can be again faster progressed competed with the other nation... This could really be reached with APBN education that already 20%. Be kept looking for the strategy that was exact to make use of him. Followed continued the development of UMPC/netbook this in the article blog.

Evidently Acer Aspire One, I I the prediction will become his king netbook in the future, just announced officially the decline in the price of his product. Something that was very positive although still could not penetrate the psychological figure was supervised by USD 300. The version 8 GB Windows XP will descend to USD 349 (from USD 399), the Linpus Linux Lite version was USD 329 (from USD 379). The version of the durable battery with six-cell battery pack was USD 399. As the king laptop cheap, Acer was believed in by me will continue to be able to press the price, was good by means of production efficiency and also in the distribution.

Very much the producers had finally penetrated the limit was supervised by USD 300, I thought in 1 year in front of the price will be very competitive and playing in the USD range in the 200 's. If being supervised by USD 100 possibly still necessary time was fastest 1 year in the future.

New Acer Aspire One: New UMPC/Netbook King


Finally the competitor was very strong from the pioneer UMPC (Ultra Mobile PC) Asus Eee PC emerged also. Anyone else if not from his king laptop economical from Taiwan: Acer. His name? The Aspire One. Aspire personally was flagship brand from Acer to laptop mini the measurement 12-an inch that was relative more expensive than the product laptop Acer other. Did not know when definitely him the day launching, but around late last July 2008. Several matters that were certain concerning his specification I note here. The UMPC term and "netbook" at this time often was used with the same meaning.

Several days ago I could receive the email that offered this product in the Balikpapan city, his price 4 million so many (forgot definitely him). Meaning that the product has been arrived in Indonesia. If seeing his technical specification, this product was indeed aimed directly "head to head" with Asus Eee PC. Design had the uniqueness personally compared to the design that has been begun by Asus. However disappointment continue to in the screen that still with the "strange" dimension in the style of DVD portable player that is 1024 x 600 (that was worn standard normal PC was 1024 x 768). However Aspire One succeeded in maintaining the price continued to be covered. The price of the SSD version 8 GB with Linux Linpus Lite was in USD 379 (hopefully the source of information was straightened by me).

The technical specification that succeeded in being gathered by me from various sources:
* 8.9-inch 1024 x 600 of LED-backlit display
* 1.6GHz atomic Intelligence of N270
* 512MB DDR2 SDRAM (expandable)
* 1,3 megapixel camera
* SDHC and the multi-format of the media readers
* 802.11b/g, Ethernet, three USB 2,0, VGA, and 3.5mm audio out
* One free mini PCI slot for WWAN
* 80GB hard drive (with XP) or 8GB solid state (with Linux)
* 2,5 or 5 hours ounce 3 or 6-cell batteries in XP the model, 3 or 7 hours ounce Linux
* 1kg (2,2 pounds)
* available in four colors - sapphire blue, seashell white, golden brown and coral pink
* the price $ 379 for Linux, $600 for Windows XP.

Along with was the direct photograph from Aspire One side by side with Eee PC 901 (saw the picture was supervised by this news). Several news mentioned that this product was aimed at will be sold by 6 million units in 2008, higher than the Eee target that only 5 million. Indeed the network of the distribution worldwide Acer far more stronger compared to Asus. Moreover after Acer bought Gateway in USA. But, the limitations of spare parts apparently will obstruct the achievement of the target sold that. Why could this UMPC product be so cheap? One of them was the use of this strange measurement screen. The dimension screen so was the screen that was used in portable DVD player that has been produced mass so as the price could be far more cheaper. Afterwards also the SSD use (solid state the disk) that was technology flash that was cheaper compared to traditional hardisk.
At this time the UMPC market increasingly solid the competition, very good for the community. Along with the players who have entered:

Asus Eee PC 901 and 1000, the Cloudbook Max netbook, Elitegroup apostr s G10IL mini-laptop, MSI apostr s Wind low-cost laptop, Giga-byte apostr s M912X mini-laptop, and Acer apostr s Aspire one, and of course should not forget the pioneer OLPC (one laptop per child) from Nicholas Negroponte.

The mini product laptop the MOBILE PHONE did not enter here because although spec technical entered, but his price a sky...

Unfortunately the series of the graphic card that was used was not explained specifically. Netbook from Acer this could be received with pretty colors, like black, red and pink.

NEW LAP TOP,

Intel partners with TSMC to outsource Atom processor

Intel is planning a partnership announcement with foundry TSMC today for the outsourcing of production of the Atom processor which is targeted at low power mobile phone designs.

See David Manners blog post -

Intel likes to build its own processors, but its fabs are so expensive that they require high margin products to justify the expense of building them, operating them and investing in the process R&D which the fabs use.

Putting the Atom out to foundry with TSMC will remove the manufacturing and process R&D overhead. At the same time, TSMC, in a downturn at the foundries as IDMs reduce their foundry business, is no doubt happy to offer Intel a good price.

There is another, possible reason why Intel is out-sourcing its parts. Intel traditionally can't do low power, it has always buili its ICs for speed. TSMC, which makes low-power chips for the wireless people like Qualcomm, can make low-power chips. That could be a major motivator for Intel going to TSMC.

Prediction two - low-cost silicon photonics for faster, more reliable data transmission

Silicon photonics optics channels will be used inside and outside PCs.

For example, remote optical memory can be used to create converged I/Os so a PC could have a single unified connector for a computer display, LAN, printer, wireless connection, scanner, USB and so on. Furthermore, because an optical channel does not require design engineering to ensure speed - its inherent in its nature - speed is implicit which has all sorts of positive implications such as true HD down loads, storage capability and terabit networking.

Prediction three - new heights of realism in visual computing

There will be a shift from dedicated hardware graphics engines to general hardware running dedicated software as this has greater flexibility so features such as shadow map algorithms - an aspect of rendering that creates tiny ragged outline edges - can be replaced by 'soft shadows'.

'Order independent transparency' - the ability to create overlaid images which are clearly transparent, will be vastly improved.

Overall, these benefits will deliver new heights of realism to computer generated imagery.

Immediate applications areas are gaming sphere, but it will also have implications for business applications and the film industry.

Prediction four - realistic computer generated images

Some types of complex graphic rendering requires the use of data sharing between the CPU and the graphic processing unit (GPU).

However, the hardware-based model for graphics does not easily facilitate this at present.

The sharing of virtualised memory between the CPU and the GPU will deliver the highest performance yet, for what are typically very complicated interactions.

For example, complex data structures can be shared between the two with applications easily split between the CPU and GPU.

Prediction five - malware will become a thing of the past

Malware, whatever form it takes whether viruses, trojans or worms, will be beaten by hardware-based techniques that protect at the deepest level.

Today Intel has 'trusted execution technology' which is a set of processor hardware extensions and chipsets that have security characteristics such as measured launch and protected execution.

It achieves this by creating an environment in which applications can run within their own space, protected from all other software on the system.

To a degree, the success of hardware-based security is also dependent on how much effort vendors are prepared to put into securing their products. But once it is known that there is a solution that successfully addresses the problem of malware market forces will drive vendors in this direction.

Prediction six - personal internet devices will be truly personal

Mobile internet devices (Mids) are already powerful enough to be useful and the introduction of sub-threshold devices (prediction one) mean these will run all day.

Add this to a continuous Internet connection and users will, for example, be able translate words into other languages and hear then pronounced, or with GPS get a constant geographically-based pollen prediction for that day.

Ten years from now Mids will be ubiquitous and application developers will flood the market with all sorts of ingenious ideas.

Prediction seven - interactive computing devices make 'composable computing' a reality

'Composable computing' is the impromptu assembly of a logical computer from wireless components that are nearby - enabled by wireless links, automatically assembling networks, and simple graphical user interfaces that allow available components selected and connected as the user desires.

For example, images taken on a mobile device could be directed onto a nearby TV, or the music playing on an MP3 player could be sent to a HiFi in the room.

Prediction eight - next-generation TV will not be about pixels

There is a limit to how big a TV screen can be without needing larger rooms, and a limit to the amount of resolution this size of screen needs.

Beyond this, TVs will have to differentiate themselves by delivering further information.

For example, click on a athlete in a running race to bring up biographical details in a window.

Viewing will be from any location, delivered through various means such as 'over-the-air' and multi-cast IP, and available on a wide range of devices from notebook PCs to mobile internet devices and smart phones.

Prediction nine - seamlessly connected 3-D worlds

3D worlds, perhaps the World of Warcraft and Second Life, will overlap and be used for more practical activities.

Companies already get feedback from virtual users about new products before they are brought to the real market, and virtual spaces can be created as meeting places where employees can exchange information regardless of geographical location.

With the impending advances in computer graphics and growth in devices, how long will it be before a company like Amazon.com, for example, establishes a 3D presence with shopping aisles and book shelves that can be entered via virtual worlds such as Second Life?

Prediction ten - and finally a spectrum revolution is looming

Already many devices contain two or three wireless connectivity options and as television becomes more interactive this need will become more pressing.

As things stand today, the spectrum is fragmented and fairly chaotic, parts are saturated, and parts almost empty.

It's unlikely that this will happen in a smooth manner, as many organisations will wish to maintain dominance of their spectrum segment.

However, for example, as broadcast TV eventually concedes its position to interactive TV which is tailored to each user's preferences, spectrum will eventually be freed up.


Intel’s top lawyer: Uphill battle to fight the EU fine

Intel takes strong exception to this decision. We believe the decision is wrong and ignores the reality of a highly competitive microprocessor marketplace – characterized by constant innovation, improved product performance and lower prices. There has been absolutely zero harm to consumers. Intel will appeal.

We do not believe our practices violated European law. The natural result of a competitive market with only two major suppliers is that when one company wins sales, the other does not. The Directorate General for Competition of the Commission ignored or refused to obtain significant evidence that contradicts the assertions in this decision. We believe this evidence shows that when companies perform well the market rewards them, when they don’t perform the market acts accordingly.

Intel never sells products below cost. We have however, consistently invested in innovation, in manufacturing and in developing leadership technology. The result is that we can discount our products to compete in a highly competitive marketplace, passing along to consumers everywhere the efficiencies of being the world’s leading volume manufacturer of microprocessors.

Despite our strongly held views, as we go through the appeals process we plan to work with the Commission to ensure we’re in compliance with their decision. Finally, there should be no doubt whatsoever that Intel will continue to invest in the products and technologies that provide Europe and the rest of the world the industry’s best performing processors at lower prices.
