Zii Info

January 7, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I just got a email saying I will witness the “life changing event of 2009″. They saidzii that they created a stem cell-like silcon that is able to grow and multiply into different solutions and ecosystems. A investment that spans over 10 years and is worth over 10,000 man-years. The breakthrough will supposedly make our lives better beyond your imagination. To all you lucky Americans at CES 2009, visit booth #30651. Or visit zii.com at January 8th 2009 for updates. What do you think that “legendary” silcon will allow us to do. Crazy fast computers!

Update: Not as exciting as I thought

The Connected Experience

January 2, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I always hear about companies saying how their products deliver a connected experience but the one fault I find with all of this is that this companies product doesn’t work with this. If you choose to have a “Microsoft household” you have to buy :

  1. Xbox 360
  2. Windows PC
  3. Edition of Vista with Media Center
  4. Microsoft Zune
  5. Windows Home Server

On the other hand if you chose to live the “Apple” way:

  1. Mac with Leopard
  2. Ipod
  3. Apple TV
  4. Time Capsule
  5. iPhone

There are many other ways I could have listed. Wouldn’t it be great if all products worked seamlessly with each other. Before any company can claim they have a full connected experience all their products would have to work with a competing companies products. My household contains a mix of companies: Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, Apple. What sucks is my Home Server doesn’t work with my MacBook which doesn’t connect to my PSP which doesn’t… You probably get what I mean. Don’t believe when companies say they got a connected experience until their products work with competing companies products.

Trojan! Trojan!

December 31, 2008 · 2 Comments

onecare-cleanupFreaky. While I was downloading the Windows 7 torrent, I got a alert saying that Windows Live Onecare detected Trojan:JS/Agent. That’s why I get by clicking Allow to random UAC popups! I’m not sure whether that happened because of some site I visited or the torrent. I never got a virus on any computer since 11 years ago. Afterimage below:
