IT NEWS#15 MACBOOK PRO
The MacBook Pro is a line of Macintosh portable computers introduced in January 2006 by Apple Inc. It replaced the PowerBook G4 and was the second model, after the iMac, announced in the Apple–Intel transition. The high end of the MacBook family, the MacBook Pro is currently produced in 13-, 15-, and 17- inch sizes.
There have been two designs for the MacBook Pro, both using aluminum. The first design was largely a carry-over from the PowerBook G4, but used the Intel Core central processing units instead of PowerPC G4 chips. A 15-inch model was released in January 2006, followed by a 17-inch model in April. These original models received several updates and were upgraded with Core 2 Duo processors late that year.
The second "unibody" model has a more tapered design; most of the casing is made from a single block of aluminum. This design debuted in October 2008 as the 15-inch MacBook Pro and the 13-inch aluminum unibody MacBook. The following January brought the design to the 17-inch model, along with the built-in battery that joined the rest of the MacBook Pro line in June. Subsequent updates brought upgraded Intel Core i5 and i7 processors and introduced Intel's Thunderbolt technology.
The MacBook Pro line of computers are consistently rated among the best laptops available. Consumer Reports and PC Magazine have chosen the MacBook Pro as one of the best computers in each size category for several years running

IT NEWS#14 MACBOOK AIR
The first MacBook Air was a 13.3" model, as the 'World's Thinnest Notebook', that was introduced at the Macworld Conference & Expo on January 15, 2008. The original MacBook Air featured a custom Intel Merom CPU plus Intel GMA graphics that was updated to faster non-custom Penryn CPU and Nvidia GeForce graphics in late 2008. In addition, the hard drive capacity was increased and the micro-DVI video port was replaced with a Mini DisplayPort. A mid-2009 refresh, introduced alongside theMacBook Pro family, featured a slightly higher-capacity battery, and a faster Penryn CPU option.
On October 20, 2010, Apple released a redesigned 13.3" model, with a new lighter enclosure, higher resolution screen, higher capacity battery, and flash storage instead of a hard drive. In addition, an 11.6" model was released for the first time, offering reduced cost, weight, battery life, and performance relative to the 13.3" model, but better performance than typical netbooks.

IT NEWS#13 TOP 10 COOLEST LAP TOP EVER!!
The ranking chosen for this top is based on how cool these concepts are but also on how realistic their design is, because in our view it is more important that such a machine to be functional and reliable, rather than just futuristic looking.
10. On the last position we decided to place the Anna Lopez̢۪s concept, a notebook designed with the focus on car drivers̢۪ needs, for which would be helpful a mobile device easy attachable to the rudder.
As the use of this lightweight laptop is limited, because of its special design dedicated to mobile workers, with a full screen keyboard and a transparent display, capable to work in your car with the possibility to catch your attention from driving, we had to leave it at the end of the list of the top 10 coolest laptop concepts.
9. Again a very futuristic system that Hewlett Packard liked a lot and exposed it at the HP Invent event last year.
The company didn̢۪t talk much about this notebook but it wanted us to have a view about how the future HP notebooks would look like.
8. V12 Design, an industrial and engineering studio from Italy presented the Canova DualTouch Screen Laptop to show us all how a futuristic 2-displays system would look like, and indeed it is interesting, but not that close to the near future̢۪s reality to deserve a better position in our top.
This notebook would have 2 touch-sensitive displays and more than that they would support the multi-touch technology.
The concept would be helpful for those that work with graphic editors - one of the 2 displays would be the monitor while the other one would transform into a keyboard – but it’d also provide sketch pad, graph paper, music score, the electronic pen and a special hardware configuration to meet the smooth functioning requirements.
7. On the 7th position we have the concept coming from Fujitsu, exposed at CEATEC, designed with the focus on one large sector as you would see.
It is equipped with touch keypad, backlit display, a 5.1 surround sound system, music keys, and second display for showing detailed information about the song playing. In conclusion it would be the perfect mobile digital player.
Fujitsu DJ laptop, as it was called, has a 20-inch primary LCD display easily folded closed to enable the turntable function, which can be accessed via a touch-sensitive screen on the outside.
This concept is focused on the music sector but has other impressive capabilities so we decided to leave it on this place in our top, and to search for something with more functionalities and dedicated to all domains.
6. Now comes the Flexi PDA concept which is very cool but not for those that prefer something stylish or neutral.
What̢۪s unique here is the flexible display that would allow us to open the system and change its form, as Daniel Alexander, its designer describes it.
According to him, this laptop would fold base on the flexible screen technology, allowing us to use it as a mobile phone even outside because it is also waterproof.
It occupies place number 6 because its look would not be on everyone̢۪s taste.
5. The green concept here is called Gelfrog and was conceived by the Frog Design team that made it so lightweight and thin so anyone could carry it as a news paper.
It̢۪s made from a super-pliable rubberized material that would act like a mobile mirror, picture slide show and even a video projector.
And now the unrealistic part:
Gelfrog uses something like a cloning algorithm that scans people̢۪s outfits to project a matching pattern on its own surface, allowing people to scan images from around and then study different subjects using the same interface.
Too futuristic but cool enough to be on the 5th position.
4. Closer to reality is Fujitsu Fab PC laptop concept that has an electronic paper display type, e-ink, with tissue covering, which makes it very flexible and lightweight.
It would look like an office folder when opened.
3. Intel had a great idea too, after collaborating with Ziba Design, and came up with this 0.7 inches thick laptop having a width of 17.7 inches and a weight of 2.25 pounds (1Kg).
Again we encounter the e-ink material for an external display that would show a photo, the calendar, or your daily schedule.
The Intel Mobile Metro notebook meets the following requirements: it is modern, supports allwireless network types and the latest mobile computing capabilities.
According to Roger Kay, the president of consultancy Endpoint Technologies Associates, for this concept, Intel used high quality resistant materials such as champagne-colored magnesium and decorated it with gold accents.
In Ziba̢۪s view, this notebook is like a jewelry.
Intel Mobile Metro has a diary-like folder attached to it via magnets, capable of wireless charging.
2. Compenion prototype is on the 2nd place because of its two OLED touch-sensitive displays from which one would be used as keyboard, while the other one as an additional display.
Felix Schhmidberger wanted it to have a slider design and to serve as a series of docking stations.
The home dock would have a projector for viewing videos, and the office would have an ergonomic keyboard for example.
The multi-touch screen would be accessed with both fingers and a senstylus.
This notebook could have many different functionalities and has a great look too but we had to put it in the same balance with the Vaio Zoom concept, and you will see why Compenion remained on this position.
1. For this beautiful glass display that becomes completely transparent when the laptop is not in use, the touch-sensitive keyboard that becomes opaque when not in use, and it̢۪s extremely thin shell, the Vaio Zoom Holographic Concept notebook deserves the first position in top 10 coolest laptop concepts of all times.
We think that this concept is showing us how future laptops would look like, while the designer wanted to create something that satisfies the requests of people for a perfect designed notebook.
Such a system would be extremely thin, the lightest, and would look exactly like in these pictures.

IT NEWS#12 ASUS EEE PC 1000H-one of the smalest lap top!
ASUS EEE PC 1000H
Screen Size: 10”Battery Life: 5 hours
Operating System: Windows XP
Weight: 3.2lbs
ASUS’ EEE PC range was a key playingin the birth of small laptops only a few years ago. Early models were limited by their small solid state drives and reliance on using Linux as the primary OS to keep the price down. Initially, the EEE PC was designed with only the most casual users in mind, but a shift to Windows XPas well as a full upgrade of just about every aspect of the old model has seen the 1000H bring Asus back to the forefront of the small laptop market.
Technical specs of the laptop include a 10 inch screen with integrated 1.3 MP webcam, Intel Atom CPU and a 160GB hard drive, all powered by a 6-cell battery.
One of the bigger criticisms of the old EEE PC range was that at seven inches, the screen was just too small to effectively display web pages and other forms of content that are increasingly designed for large, widescreen displays. Further problems relating to size included the keyboard being too small for fast typers with large hands to keep up their natural speed on the system.
The 1000H has changed that. Yes, it's still at the lower of what most consumers would consider a small laptop, but the jump to 10" has increased usability tenfold. It allows users to not only take full advantage of the sharp and vibrant LCD display but also keep their typing speeds up by a much more spaced out and sensibly designed keyboard. Even the touchpad has been improved and made more ergonomic and responsive.
It's the little features that make the 1000H stand out on the cutting edge ofsmall laptops. The "Super Hybrid Engine" technology allows you to switch between 3 different CPU speeds which enhance the systems portability. Writing a word document? Set your CPU speed to 1.2 GHz and save battery life. Watching a video file? Set your CPU speed to maximum and take full advantage of the Intel Atom's speed.
Add to this an integrated card reader, webcam, free office suite and even a button above the keyboard that can change your resolution and you have a very complete hardware package. As small laptops go, battery life is slight above average performing for about 4.5-5 hours under heavy load. It's advertised at 7 hours, although it’s unlikely you'll get close to that unless you leave the laptop on idle.
With prices ranging between $400 and $600 depending on your technical requirements, the N1000 is one of the best deals amongst all the small laptops. It doesn't specialise in anything particular and its battery life might be a letdown for some, but its budget price tag and attractive arrange of features make it a front line contender for casual users.
