Microsoft Courier – Digital Booklet “Journal”

March 8th, 2010 by B@D

While we’re holding our breath to get hands on the Apple iPad, Microsoft has been working in their dark room to develop the user experiences and design concepts that are NEW and exactly opposite of what Apple iPad brings us. It seems like we’ve all been ranting about the wrong device.

Microsoft-Courier

 

Along with Book Reading, Listening to music & Taking photos, Courier will allow users to scribble notes, manipulate clipped photos and text, and sketch images.

Here are some of the key features:

 

Dual Same Size Screens

Less than an Inch Thick

Each Screen Measured 5 inches x 7 inches

Stylus & Multi-Touch Capability

Built in Camera

Headphone Jack for Audio

Built in Calendar, Contacts Organizer, To-Do List

Wi-Fi enabled

Nvidia Tegra 2 Chipset Processor

Windows CE 6 [ Same system used on Zune HD & upcoming Windows Phone 7 Series ]

 

Check out the videos below to have a peek into this marvel of Innovation.

Pricing and release date are still not known, but if Microsoft can keep costs down, the Courier can become a trouble for a Apple’s iPad.

January 21st, 2010 by sT*rchi1Ð

A rapid prototyping technique that involves “printing” three-dimensional objects with plaster or resin & Stuff. Many typo materials used in printing, most common technos like SLS, FDM, SL, Lamination systems, EB, 3DP, 3D Ceramic Printing etc are nowadays used @ commercial level. Every techno relies on specific material as per industrial demand while it helps a lot for an abstract model of specified object or stuff like that..

Resolution: Given in layer thickness and X-Y resolution in dpi. Typical layer thickness is around 100 micrometres (0.1 mm), while X-Y resolution is comparable to that of laser printers. The particles (3D dots) are around 50 to 100 micrometres (0.05-0.1 mm) in diameter. (wiki)

Buying a Hi-End balanced Gaming PC

December 16th, 2009 by B@D

Buying a performing, balanced but budget Gaming PC has always been a challenge. No matter its 2001 (wink) or 2009. Decent performing (40+fps) yet not mighty expensive hardware does comes with alot of research and a base price point. So, we did both and stepped out of home with time spent in research and Rs. 50,000 in our pocket for CH|LL’s new desktop system.

Here is some eye-candy I’ve shot for the creative readers. Review & benchmarks will be posted very soon.

Ingredients:

Intel Core2Duo E7400

ASUS P5P43TD

Cooler Master 460W

Corsair XMS3 DDR3
