The ASUS Zenbook's aluminum body is sleek, shiny and polished.
It is a gorgeous piece of hardware, but it also gives you this nagging feeling that you have seen it all before.
That's probably because it is a virtual lookalike of the Apple MacBook Air.
It even weighs about the same as a MacBook Air, at 1.3kg for the 13 inch UX31.
This is not a bad thing.
The MacBook Air is widely recognised as being one of the slimmest, lightest and best-looking laptops around, and now users who prefer a Windows laptop but like the aesthetics of the MacBook Air can pick up a Zenbook to satisfy their needs.
And there is more.
The Zenbook surpasses the MacBook Air with its high-resolution 1600x900 13.3-inch display, compared to the MacBook Air's 1440x900 screen.
On board as well are quality Bang and Olufsen ICEpower speakers, but the review unit's speakers unfortunately sounded slightly scratchy when the volume was cranked up.
The Zenbook also comes with useful widgets that will predict how much battery life remains based on whether the user is watching a movie, doing office work or playing games on the laptop, and automatically save all user files once the battery's power level gets too low.
Unfortunately, the Zenbook has some glaring flaws that prevent it from being a serious rival to Apple's MacBook Air.
Those who have issues with Mac keyboards will be more forgiving on using the clunky un-backlit ASUS keyboard.
Get ready to punch the keys or learn to live with constantly mistyped words.
The effort taken to enter longer search terms into Google proved to be highly frustrating, compounded by the Zenbook's wobbly touchpad that made highlighting the mistyped words to correct them, even more frustrating.
As if with a mind of its own, the Zenbook's cursor would unexpectedly zip away even when care is taken to deliberately guide it to a mistyped word with the touchpad.
Yes, there are accuracy issues, with even software fixes unable to improve on the habits of the wayward touchpad.
In addition, the touchpad's finger swiping shortcuts to scroll windows and navigate web pages were simply not practical and badly implemented.
Sometimes the swipes registered, sometimes they did not.
This reduces the finger swiping shortcuts to being more of a novelty than a reliable time-saving tool.
No doubt, users need to be in a Zen-like frame of mind to look past the flaws of the Zenbook.
But then again, the fact remains that the device dubbed an "Ultrabook" by Asus, represents quite good value for money, coming in at S$1,398 for the 11 inch with 128 GB SSD.
The solid state hard drive gives the Zenbook just that little edge over the 11 inch MacBook air, as does its speedy Intel Core i7 processor under the hood of its slim, tapered profile, the silvery body.
The ASUS also has reasonable connectivity in the form of a USB 3.0 port, a USB 2.0 port, a built-in card reader, a mini-HDMI output port as well as a VGA output port, with an Ethernet attachment and VGA output adapter.
Its five to seven-hour Ibm thinkpad t60 battery life (depending on what you do with the laptop) is adequate as well, and will see most users through a standard work day on a single charge.
The charger is quite light too, so it is not a big hassle to pack it along when extended use is required.
All these factors combine to make Zenbook ideal for those looking for an aesthetically pleasing device which boasts decent performance and a reasonable price tag. But a MacBook Air killer it is not.

Dell Computer Future , Is this shaping as a major push for Dell?
Is that later in the year for Dell?
It's whenever Microsoft releases Windows 8. (Microsoft has launched a public beta test of Windows 8 and speculation is for a launch in August-September.What are the differences in Dell today compared with five years ago and what might it look like in five years? If you look at Dell now versus five years ago, we have a much broader capability in end-to-end IT solutions. This is an IT services and data centre capability.
The portion of our business in this area has in the last five or six years more than doubled in size to $US18.6bn in revenue last year and this area accounts for more than half the profit. A lot of that has come from acquisitions such as Perot Systems, Equalogica, Compellent.
We've bought 18 or so companies in the past three or four years and we've made organic investments in our own cloud data centres and solution centres, and we've invested in increasing the capability and capacity of our sales force. We've also changed the form of the discussion that we have with customers. It used to be about boxes, now it's much more about what problem are you trying to solve and what (are) the challenges in your business. These days it's much more a chief information officer discussion, or line-of-business discussion, than a product-led discussion.
What is your take on the future of the PC market in view of the surge in tablet sales during the past two years?
If you look at the device landscape it certainly has expanded. You have smartphones, you have tablets, you have PCs. There are still some 350 million to 400 million PCs sold a year, which is way more than the number of tablets. Tablets are great and very exciting, but what you see when people have a tablet is they are consuming lots of data from inside your company or over the internet and that's increasing demand for servers and storage. You'll see a lot of blurring of the lines in what is a notebook or what is a tablet. We have just introduced the XPS13, which is a super-thin, super-light ultrabook-style notebook, and with Windows 8 coming on you'll see some very exciting new tablets from Dell Vostro 1520 and probably others that make it a very interesting landscape.
And the next five years?
When we look at the industry now, we are not confined to a small space. This whole solutions focus opens up an enormous new set of opportunities. Today this is a $US3 trillion industry and we are a little over 2 per cent of that and, yes, we think we can continue to grow the enterprise solutions and data centre side. About one-third of Dell's revenue ($US18bn) comes from enterprise solutions and services. Are you happy with that as a percentage or do you want to see more coming from enterprise systems and services? Enterprise solutions and services will continue to grow as a percentage of the revenue, and likely the profits as well.
Is there an ideal, or goal, ratio that you are aiming for?
The challenge is that the various areas all operate very much independently. You don't want to limit one to have another achieve a certain goal. That's not the way we think about things. We think a particular area is this big, it's doing well, it's profitable, and how do we do more of it? Over five years the mix will probably continue to shift, but I don't subscribe to the notion there's an ideal.
Will your hiring momentum continue this year?
I think it will. Four years ago we had about 70,000 people in the company, now we have 110,000 so. We've added 40,000 people. We'll add quite a few more this year as well. Economic conditions in the US and Europe are tricky to call at the moment. What's your take on the economy and how it affects Dell Latitude e6400 ? Dell will be 28 years old in May and last year we had revenue of $US62bn. If at any time during the last 28 years we had looked at our business and said: how is the economy doing because that's what is going to define our future, that would have been the wrong thing to do.
We just don't do that. We look at the opportunities to grow and expand and, while it's better if the economy is growing, we don't really care. The market is so large, we can grow if the economy is going one way or the other. But the state of the economy would affect your finetuning somewhat. Certainly, when you look at opportunities, you say Asia is growing really fast, the Middle East and Africa are growing really fast. The amount of data that customers are storing is doubling every 18 months.
How far up the value chain do you intend to go with your services offerings? Do you see yourself competing over time with high-end consulting services provided by the likes of IBM? As we go further into verticals the range of capabilities continues to expand. If you look at healthcare, for example, that's one where Dell is No 1 in the world. We are bigger in infrastructure and helping customers to manage all the data and make sense of the data. If you look at the very consulting-oriented things, the sort of thing that Accenture does, that's not really what we are doing a lot of.
But within a $US trillion market you don't have to be all things to all people to be a very successful company, so we tend to look at the things that (are) most readily and closely linked to the things we already do, as those are the most obvious areas of expansion for us. We had a strong server business, which made it logical to extend into storage. Then storage was growing, so we extended into networking. It was logical to do it a piece at a time. We just acquired a company last week called AppAssure (which specialises in back-up and recovery for virtualised systems), and so we continue to add intellectual property through acquisitions and organic investment to build out more and more solutions capability.
I notice you have announced a new Starter Data Warehouse Appliance. What sort of an opportunity is there in the mid and departmental business intelligence appliance market?
I think it's an enormous opportunity. Here's the way to think about it. Most companies in the world store their data, which seems like a good idea. Ask them why they store their data and they'll give you answers like, we did it at the last company or we have to because of regulations or what else would we do with it. Among the top answers is usually not: because we use the data to get information to make better decisions. But that is actually why you should store data. You should store data so that you can in real time make better decisions and get better outcomes for whatever it is you are trying to do.
Very few companies can do that today. It's only the biggest companies in the world that have been able to make the investments to do that. Companies that have 1000 people or even 10,000 people, they don't know how to do that -- it's like a dream, they wish they could do that. Think about the productive force that gets unleashed in the economy when companies can use their data to make better decisions, and we are just at the very beginning of that. I would guess that less than 1 per cent of companies with less than 10,000 people actually use their information in real time to make better decisions.
Is this shaping as a major push for Dell?
I think it's a major push for us and you see a lot of efforts around this in the industry. The power of the kinds of servers we are creating today enables you to do these things in real time. You can have terabytes of DRAM and terabytes of flash memory right inside the server, you can put the whole database in the server and get the information very, very quickly. This is very different from what was considered to be avant garde just a year or two ago. You know with Greenplum and Netezza and others, that was actually an offline thing.
Now you can do it in memory much, much better and there's a raft of new companies batteryshops.com.au popping up and helping customers gain access to their data so they can make better decisions.

Review: Dell Goes on Ultrabook Diet With Slimmed-Down Laptop
As 2012 rolls on, consumers shopping for a PC will be seeing more of the thin, light, quick-starting Windows laptops called ultrabooks.
Big names like Lenovo and Toshiba already have entered this new category, and on Tuesday, Dell will introduce its first ultrabook, the XPS 13, starting at $999.
Dell has had difficulty lately attracting consumers. At one time, it was the go-to brand for many people looking to buy a computer. But, in recent years, its consumer business has faltered as individuals, especially in the U.S., have flocked to Apple, Hewlett-Packard, and even once obscure brands such as Acer and Asus.

The Asus Zenbook UX31 was one of the first ultrabooks to hit the market in late 2011. Four months later, there’s plenty of competition in the thin and light laptop space, but the UX31 is still one of the most impressive specimens of the ultrabook species.
It’s thin, light and attractive. It boots quickly and resumes from sleep almost ridiculously quickly. And the Asus Zenbook UX31 has something that’s difficult to find on other 13.3 inch notebooks: a high resolution, 1600 x 900 pixel display

I’ve had a number of Intel based Ultrabooks in house for the last several weeks and I’ve become a fan; however, I’ve also had the first Super Tablet, the NVIDIA Tegra 3 based Asus Transformer Prime running the latest version of Android, Ice Cream Sandwich, and in a number of ways it is better than an iPad (suggesting next month’s iPad 3 release is timely). However, the two products are starting to overlap a lot. Neither can replace the other yet, but with each step the gap is getting narrower.

Top 3 tips to make sure your vacation home is safe and secure
Nothing is more rewarding than arriving at a point in your life when you can afford a vacation home. Europe, Mexico, or a log cabin in Canada; the possibilities are endless. The location of your dream vacation home may be an easy decision, but deciding how to secure your vacation home may feel overwhelming.
Even though companies like ADT offered by Home Securitysy systems offer many options, deciding which is best for your home can be difficult. Since vacation homes are often vacant for weeks at a time, ensuring vacation home security is important and something that shouldn’t be overlooked. Here are some best practices and smart tips when securing the beautiful home you worked so hard to acquire.

2012 CES: iPowerUP Changes Your Life with Battery
CES 2012, albeit officially ended, is still lingering for many to wrap their heads around with the cool products shown. Continuing with that mantra is the introduction to the smartphone market of the iPowerUP product line. The company is primarily a hybrid battery rechargeable backup product line, as I like to call the practical thinking recharger, but as we saw at this year’s CES they have their eyes in showcasing to the consumers what is to be expected to be the next big thing for your pocket, battery, and phone protection.

Which ultrabooks outshined the competition at CES 2012?
By my count, there have been more than 20 ultrabooks announced here at CES 2012. That’s a lot of laptops, especially when you consider that most of them have the same attributes: thin cases, Core i5 processors, solid-state drives, chiclet keyboards and single-button touchpads. But one has to be the best right? One would think, but choosing just one ultrabook amongst all of them isn’t really fair. Some are cheaper than others, some aren’t coming until the end of the year, and some have put a strong focus on higher end features. Picking four of the best, on the other hand, is the way to go, and that’s exactly what you will find below. Without further ado, the best ultrabooks of CES 2012:

Whether you’re a wannabie photographer looking for a camera to take you to the next level, or you simply want to capture all of your favourite moments to share with friends online, there is a camera for you. However the market is completely flooding with digital cameras, which makes trying to pick just one rather tricky.
But we are here to help. Below are a few of our favourite compact digital cameras available in 2012. All of these compact digital camera models are available from Currys and if you get a wiggle on you’ll be able to make the most of Currys’ online sale. One of the best all-round digital compact cameras on the market right now is the Samsung WB700. For less than £125 this camera really packs a punch. It boasts 14.2 megapixels and digital image stabilisation, but although this sounds impressive, this is not where this camera really beats the competition.

Tashiba News: Hands-On With Toshiba's Satellite 14-inch Ultrabook
CloudTags: Toshiba's Ultrabook , ultrabook category , Toshiba pa3533u-1brs battery , Toshiba pa3356u-3brs battery, Dell inspiron 1300 battery
Toshiba is taking the ultrabook in a new—yet familiar—direction with the recently announced Toshiba Satellite ultrabook. The slim and light 14-inch laptop echoes the aesthetic of the nascent ultrabook category, while taking cues from the existing Satellite line-up and the long established ultraportable laptop category. We were shown the prototype of the new 14-inch ultrabook, and though details may be scant, we'll tell you everything we know.
The ultrabook is constructed from aluminum, and while the specifics of internal hardware aren't firm yet, Toshiba expects the new thin Satellite to come in at under 4 pounds. Regardless of what hardware winds up appearing in the new model, Toshiba reports that the Satellite will offer eight hours of battery life, and utilize Toshiba's own twist on RapidStart, called "Hi-Speed Start," with fast boot times and near instant wake times.

Students Safe – About Surveillance Cameras in Schools
What Are Surveillance Cameras?
Surveillance cameras are placed in one or more areas inside or outside a school building, monitoring activity as it takes place. These cameras can have features like pan, tilt and zoom. Different types of surveillance cameras include analog systems of closed circuit television monitors, and Internet-based systems with digital surveillance cameras connected to a Web network. Digital systems are more expensive than analog systems, but they can make video storage, recall and viewing on multiple monitors easier.

Best Ultrabooks Review: Hands on with the HP Folio 13
The HP Folio 13, which was announced last year, is a small business-targeted ultrabook that could be equally at home in the hands of a regular Joe User. After all, the "business" differentiation is merely cosmetic and arbitrary, unless you choose to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional an optional TPM chip. What the Hp 6735s / HP Folio 13 has--a Core i5 low-voltage CPU, 128GB SSD storage, 4GB of RAM--befits any laptop in the 13-inch ultrabook universe circa 2012.
