Meet Thinvelope. A leather case for the MacBook Air by BeyzaCASES. Not exactly my style or color. But its developed after the iconic MacBook Air's envelope commercial. How much would you expect to pay for something like this? How about US$215? Damn!

China Announces Telecom Industry Restructuring

Nah. Its not mine. But I have been playing with this baby for the past 1 week now. Setting it up for my sis who has finally taken her first step into the world of hightech gadgets. The Air is really an amazing piece of technology. But its just good for normal surfing, on-the-go. Performance wise, its a tad too slow and the screen is a bit too tiny for me. Then again, one gotta remember - its designed to be a secondary computer. I love the new touchpad. Using your fingers to flip photos, go back and forth of webpages - all with just a swift of the finger (s). 

What would be a better fit for my first blog post than a traditional Mac vs Windows discussion. I believe that most people have an opinion already, one way or another. There are the people who almost religiously believe mac is much better than windows. There seem to be a lot of these so called "fanboys". (Can a girl be a Mac fanboy?) What is interesting is that it is hard to find a windows fan that believes in Windows as much as some people like Macs. Even on linux there are these fanboys. I am sure there are a few windows fanatics out there, but I bet most people that use windows, use it because thats what they used yesterday. These people are comfortable with windows because they have used windows on almost every computer they use.

Apple is one of the most innovative tech companies around, with their current patent there is no doubt that they are key at being environmentally friendly as well as technologically advanced.  Wouldn't it be nice to have a laptop that didn't need to be plugged in to charge?  What about taking your portable device with you into un-industrialized places?  This has been sought after for many years now and it seems that a good company is in the right place at the right time.  I look forward a self sustaining portable device.

oggi vi dimostro che è così avanzata come tecnologia che fa anche i pop-corn

For mac users, Accordance version 8 is now out. It looks like there's a couple of bugs still being worked through (the universal binary didn't have the help file for a while), so if you're keen on getting it maybe wait a couple of days.

Apple TV: More Hype Than Content Adds Up to a Set-Top Flop
Video - Macintosh, iPod, iPhone: Apple has a knack for tapping into what consumers want from thier tech gadgets. So what happened with Apple TV, the Cupertino giant's foray into the digital set-top-box market? Tech Ticker's Henry Blodget and Silicon Alley Insider Apple analyst Dan Frommer talk about why Apple TV continues to flounder as competitors like Netflix, game console manufacturers, and cable providers close in.

I was taking the local train the other day up to the ski jump tower in Oslo. It’s a pretty impressive thing. Super high up, and a way to get a great view of the city. However, the train is long and slow, due to the steep climb. The first stop we made a whole hoard of Norwegians came on the train with their coffee and baked goods. I guess they assumed I was American. (How do people do that?) And they started speaking in English to each other in the most horrid accent I have ever heard. They were trying to imitate a southern California beach goer ( I would have to presume…) “yeah, I would like an espresso with two shots. No sugar. No sugar. Yeah thanks.” The ‘yeah’ was overly drawn out. “yeah, no sugar, make that triple shot. Yeah no sugar.
