The case for Branded PC Vis a Vis Assembled

Its but obvious, Branded PC's should be gone for. Why its just like asking why parents are better than neighbours. Well because they care more for you, and will be there for you at the time of disparity. Think it this way, like I mean people who have spent millions of dollars on product development and a whopping 6-8% of revenue in Advertisements are better supposed to understand customer care, they have better process and people to deal with and surely a better product and empathy.

Also they would not fly by the night and be there at the requisite time with features like the International travelers Warranty.

A Waterproof Notebook

Friends those were the days when PC were as large as a Big Building room, I am talking about Mainframes requiring a lot of space, maintenence and causing lot of noise and vibrations, required lot of cooling, and also lot of power.

But Matsushita took the effort on to the other direction this week by announcing its Waterproof and shock proof notebook PC. Now swim in the pool and chat or check e-mail. Or throw the laptop from the top of a building and get it in one peice at the bottom of the building.

Cool man, PC's are getting rugged is a good news as they can double up as a portable entertainment device and an object of business transactions. Also more power packed and efficient m/c's mean more productivity at work.

Is technology evolving too slowly

Is technology evolving too slowly. I mean I think by the pace and the momentum of technological advancement in and around the globe,( esp in AI ) by now we should have had an application for automatically developing a package in a specified language with just goals being set for technical specifications and performance requirements, and presto withi a few minutes 10 -15 different avatars are ready, pre tested for your final approval.
Humanm beings just exercise finer judgement and nuances t choose the software they like. I think current technology is enough to support such unctionality. Then is it just lack of thought and creativity that these applications are not developed, or is it to feed xillions of Cyber Coolies in earning their livelyhood.

Although Apple was not as successful as Microsoft in marketing its MAC PC's but it is well known to be a very innovative company.

Apple also recently unveiled Safari browser which despite its bugs is the fastest browser in the market, twice faster than IE and 1.6 times faster than Firefox.

Microsoft has also recently been nimble in marketing through innovation, its XBOX 360 was a very successful product.
