WOW! I never thought I'd see the day, because I never thought about it, but a 100" tablet! With a 2,304 x 800 resolution and 50 touch points, it's something you can really boast about! Made for the Space Chase Gallery at the Adventure Science Center. But all I'm wondering is, that if it will windows 7 . Still the apple geek though. No worries.
update: Since I have missed 3 posts, I'll post all 3 of them now ! ^_^!
The new dsi has been announced ... the dsl xl! As you can see by the image, this dsi has a stunning crisp display, but still has no gba slot, oh well. This is like the 17 inch mac pro of the future, with 20% more battery per charge this will let you play for days to come! The exact dimensions are161 x 91.4 x 21.2mm. This great new dsi is coming out in November and coming out at around march in north america. That was fast, but with no gba slot, I'm not really feeling the heat.
The school I go to has asked me to start a computer club! YaY! So what should I do? What projects should we do? And what prizes could we give out that are cheap? Present your answer to me at justinmathew34@hotmail.com
The worst tech to hit the market - the usb that locks content. I'm not saying that it's not important to learn appropriate things to do on the web, but this is just stupid. It shuts down computer when a time limit ends, it blocks files, and when the usb is taken out it makes the computer virtually important to use. After taken out it's just a hunk of cold metal. Would you like this kind of tech?

P.s I've been busy, so this is the post for Sunday. Since I posted 4 updates last time that equal a for day break ( for me) so sorry if you've been sad, I tried to upload the vids and the reviews, but it wasn't working. That means no reviews. Sorry, I'll make up for it later
This is to commemorate the new magic mouse. To compensate for their loss of the mighty mouse, the have released a new mouse. The magic mouse. This new mouse looks a little more like the old puck shaped mouse ( you'll know if you used the multi coloured imacs) . But this mouse is like the glass trackpad on macbooks, meaning that it can do multi touch gestures. Apple has really taken it to the next step when they introduced the multi touch mouse. Congratulations apple! This ends the apple coverage but I will cover each product in a single blog, one per day instead of all of this, I'll probably just repeat what I'm saying now but oh well. Magic mouse, keep up they tricks, but you'll have competition.
Now this is what I really love! Yes a new macbook, and I'm not talking about the aluminum or the macbook pros but about the polycarbonate plastic. Apple's best selling notebook, now got a very good upgrade with a new processor, a better hard drive ( 160 gb - 250 gb) and a glass trackpad, with one big button. The big button is the icing on the cake because just a couple of days I was wondering and obsessed with the multi touch track pad. But just so I can contain my excitement I will wait and post a post because that is only fair to the other mac products.
Justin (hip hip hooray)
p.s. my power went down right after the closing ( above) and I freaked out and started a new one and that is when I remembered this so Yahoo auto saving! : )
Continuing our review I must talk about the new mac mini. Being the cheapest apple computer, coming directly from the apple store, we don't expect much out of the mac mini, but apple cares not. The new mac mini comes now with double the memory and a much better processor. But I'm not really to excited with this, because It's like a middle end p.c., which is boring ... I mean it's PC!
So like I said before this computer will have a day of it's on in turn of reviews.
An apple dream come trough, looks like the rumors were true, and apple released it's new products and like I promised, REVIEWS! direct from the apple site. The first the new imac. This new release is an imac that has been revamped and now features a killer 27.5 inch screen. Just saturday I was demoing the 24 inch and THAT was huge! I can't wait to dream about getting this! Anyways the new imac has had a revamp on their processors, now the highest end imac (not mac pro) has a quad core processor! Also the highest end has a sleek new ATI radeon graphics card. Their are much more improvements that I will cover over the course of a week or so, but right now the other products get their show in the spotlight!
The new line of apple products is coming out tomorrow! Yes! I will have coverage on this directly from the apple site, no other tech blogs but straight from apple site! The update should be the polycarbonate white macbooks, the imacs, the mac mini, the mac os x 10.6 server, and a new mouse rumored to be called "magic mouse"... Well anyways it's going to be an exciting day tomorrow!
Look at these pics and see if the fake is a rip off. By the way the fake one if the one with measurements. Built for windows 7. Great innovation skills!
Wow! R.I.M has announced it's latest edition of the crackberry, the crackberry watch! ( if you don't know what crackbery it's another way of saying R.I.M's blackberry). I have always dreamed of a tv wristwatch to glimpse at while in school, but this is just crazy. Sony ecrisson phones have already released this technology, but it's kind of amazing of how technology s advancing. Now it's time to count down the days to the holonet.
Recently a man in china felt the need for going overboard with virtual fish, so yes I'm not making this up, but he popped open his waterproof phone, put in some fish filled it with water and closed the lid! What a jerk, poor fish! No food and they could get electrocuted but yes taking extremes even further ... the mobile pet. Friday was a bad day for justin happy tech news so this shall be Friday's post and I shall post today's as well.
I had a flash of inspiration and this is what came to me ... for every week or 2 I shall post a history lesson on tech and computers. I will not stop with my daily posts but I will just ad something like this so enjoy -
Wow! Clipart you ashame me. Yesterday I was using word in class when I had to search up a pic of a mac and a pc. All I found was a pic of a Macintosh Personal Computer 1999 and nothing when I searched up Microsoft. Well since it was designed by microsoft I understand no Macs but absolutely no pics of Microsoft/windows/pc on 1997 0r 2007. Created and never appreciated by Microsoft...
Windows really is 7 crazy. They are set to give away 777 copies to Zevenhuizen in the Netherlands which mean exactly 7 houses. Woopee! All the people of this town get to have people install windows 7 in their homes! And just because their town has 7 in it. Wow Microsoft! But you know you know you were just as excited when windows vista came out but look how that turned out. Personally windows 7 runs great for me but I am sure with all the people set to buy windows 7 I'm sure that it'll be a flop sooner or later. Just wait and see.
I am an apple man at heart and this is why I am talking about apple computers ( mac) but I was born and raised with pcs so I shall post windows updates regularly. Anyways ... Rumor has it that a new mac pro is to come out with or a little after the anticipated imac, macbook, mac mini and apple's new mouse ( can't say mighty mouse anymore). Rumor has it that it will have a 12 core (i9) intel chip in it. Also it would be able to support 8 - 16 gb ram (up to 128 gb on ram alone) and a 10 gps etherent connectivity. I say no way for now but it could be true ... I mean it's apple.
With the iphone you certainly can do anything! Students in Berlin have performed to do the quite possible ( PSPs were doing it before the days of Obama in the media)they drive cars via hand held devices.Here you can see students from Berlin driving a minivan with an iphone!
Cool isn't it!
Justin
p.s you might want to watch the video on youtube because it may cut off.
YAHOO! There are new macs on the way. Even though I don't own one (yet) I am still excited because well.... I am obsessed! They are rumored but very likely to release a new imac, a new macbook, and a mac mini. The imac get released every 7 months and the last release was in march so they should be coming soon. Also the macbook. I'm not talking about the macbook pro, the macbook air or the 13" aluminum macbooks, I'm talking about the white macbooks that have been a favourite among students. Also there is probably going to be a multi touch mouse similar to the track pads on macbooks that allow multi touch gestures. And there could be a mac mini update but it very unlikely. All of this (except the mouse) was displayed in a leaked apple European ad that shows a new Imac, macbook, and mac mini. So get started on your Christmas wish lists ... it's going to be a heck of a good one.
YAY! A new version of linux is available for the world to use. I knew that they would make one sooner or later but yay! I have been searching for this for ever. Why you say? Because mac os x has a similar kernal linux, so they look and somehow run the same. So yahoo, open source, free MACs! yes I'm obsessed.

I know I din't make a post yesterday so I'm going to blog using a post from yesterday. Woo enjoy the show...
Apple is being sued for copyright infringement. Yes that's right apple is being sued! Apple is being sued for the iconic mighty mouse. A company called Man & Machine inc. is suing apple for using the name mighty mouse after a year after man an machine started using it. The mighty mouse from man and machine is a super durable mouse that is water proof and rugged, mostly used in hospitals. "What's this ... thank you..." It has just been determined that apple has indeed lost the lawsuit and will be recreating the mouse. Oh so said apple but it's no good you have lost. GOOD BYE MIGHTY MOUSE!
I know that I said that I would only do one blog post a day, but I just looked on ars technica, and saw what I was waiting for since 2007. Microsoft Office! They are releasing a new microsoft office but they are also being a big fat jerk by littering ads on new computer versions ( comparable to microsoft works (microsoft works doesn't have ads in it) Are you as excited as I am? http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2009/10/microsoft-announces-ad-supported-office-starter-2010.ars
Hey guys, as my ongoing quest of putting up a post daily, struggling with school ( not really), obsessing about apple without having any of their products ( i should change that), and waiting for computer club, and also recovering from my last post, I present to you a used apple reseller - gainsaver.com! By discounted I mean a discount of over $1000! It's used but for the time being it's great for me. They also sell new macs, and pcs. A Panasonic toughbook is discounted by 3000 bucks! amazing isn't it! Well See you tomorrow! http://www.gainsaver.com

Well how are you guys doing? well I was bored so how about we have a contest on riddles. The one with the most wins. Well that is when you join my blog of course : )
I n the 1400's a law was set forth that a man was not allowed to beat his wife with a stick no thicker than his thumb. Hence we have "the rule of thumb".
Many years ago in Scotland, a new game was invented. It was ruled "Gentlemen Only...Ladies Forbidden"...and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.
The first couple to be shown in bed together on prime time TV was Fred and Wilma Flintstone.
Every day more money is printed for Monopoly than the US Treasury.
Men can read smaller print than women can; women can hear better.
Coca-Cola was originally green.
It is impossible to lick your elbow.
The average number of people airborne over the US any given hour: 61,000
Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair.
The first novel ever written on a typewriter: Tom Sawyer.
Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king in history:
Spades - King David
Hearts - Charlemagne
Clubs -Alexander, the Great
Diamonds - Julius Caesar
111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321
If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle. If the horse has one front leg in the air the person died as a result of wounds received in battle. If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.
Q. If you were to spell out numbers, how far would you have to go until you would find the letter "A"?
A. One thousand
Q. What do bullet-proof vests, fire escapes, windshield wipers, and laser printers all have in common?
A. All invented by women.
Q. What is the only food that doesn't spoil?
A. Honey
In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase "goodnight, sleep tight."
It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month, which we know today as the honeymoon.
In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts... So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them "Mind your pints and quarts, and settle down." It's where we get the phrase "mind your P's and Q's"
Many years ago in England, pub frequenters had a whistle baked into the rim, or handle, of their ceramic cups. When they needed a refill, they used the whistle to get some service. "Wet your whistle" is the phrase inspired by this practice.

If you were trapped on a deserted Island and you could only have 3 things with you what would it be? And also do you believe in the 2012 myth? Post your responses when you join my Blog!
I was just bored so here's a question to all you techies in the club, what kind of Computer do you have. What Is the processor chip? (INTEL or AMD) And If you could get any computer in the world, what would it be? What operating system would you have? And what software would you have installed?
Anyways this is my first post on blogger so hello blogger community and the Malvern computer club. I would just like to say that I'm very excited to join this club, and that I really want to have fun and learn about computers. I have been looking at computers and macs and I stumbled across hackintoshes. I love the mac OS x 10.5.6 (leopard) but it is very expensive compared to pcs isn't it? Well over the summer I found out that you could put the mac os x operating system, and that we have the technology to boot the original retail cd. Anyways I was talking to Ian and he said that he has an Asus eee pc which is compatible to turn into a hackintosh. I always wanted to do this and this will be great practice for me and for you guys too. This is what I want to do in the computer club. I also want to make my own computer, because you really can't call a computer a computer unless you built it your self. I also want to learn how to enable adsense on a website just for future reference. I would also like to learn how to care for a computer and clean it without damaging anything. And maybe we could make our own little nifty software! This is what I want to do personally at the club
