iBooks? Apple doesn't discuss unannounced products, but industry
momentum is headed towards Intel's new PCI Express bus. With it -- and
a recent announcement from graphics chip maker
Nvidia Corp. -- comes the promise of

08/01/2004 03:30 AMAccording to a recent study by Current Analysis, unit sales of
notebooks equipped with a widescreen 15.4-inch display have steadily
continued to climb throughout the first half of 2004. As of June 30,
the widescreen market accounted for 48% of all notebooks sold,
compared to only 15% in December 2003. The growth represents the
highest share yet for the widescreen models since its introduction in
the spring of 2003 and demonstrates widescreen systems are selling in
greater numbers than its traditional square counterparts. [PRWEB Aug

times the range (450 feet) and is 8 times faster (i.e. nearly USB 2
speed wireless).
It's completely compatible with other 802.11g and 802.11b networks.
The wireless router is expected to sell for $199 and each card around
$129 and should be available at stores shortly.

Joy of Notebooks
Joy of Notebooks
08/10/2004 04:56 AM
Writing Joy of Typing reminded me of the Moleskine
phenomenon. I haven't used
a Moleskine notebook yet but I am fascinated by all the raving
going on. I don't
particularly care whether Van Gogh and Matisse used it or
not. But I do think
think there is something there beyond vanity and word-of-mouth
marketing. Maybe
it's in the texture of the paper, maybe it's the right size or
shape. Maybe
it's the rubberband. If it is the paper, then I wonder which
type of pen or
pencil goes best with the notebook.
BTW, I don't understand the pricing on the Moleskine
notebooks. Why does the
diaries with 380 pages cost less than non-diaries which haves far
less pages?
Do they use different papers? Obviously the sketch book must
use higher quality
paper than others, but I wonder if the diaries use thinner pages to
keep the thickness
down. Heh. I guess I got moleskined.
I'll admit that all this is kind of silly if one takes a step back,
but then life
itself is silly if you take enough steps back.

Notebooks For Gamers?
02/11/2004 11:07 PMEvery time I wonder why anyone would buy a desktop machine again, when
notebooks are quite powerful and much more useful when portable,
someone reminds me of the gamers. The gamers always want more
powerful and customizable desktop machines so they can do more with
their machines. However, the notebook makers are realizing that the
desktop market may be a dying one, and thus are trying their best to
create notebook
computers for gamers. Of course, as someone points out in the
article, the price difference will still make this a very small
market. I also wonder if it wouldn't help to make these gaming
notebooks more easily customizable, since part of the appeal of
desktops seems to be the ability to modify them.

DaVinci's notebooks, a page a day
05/31/2004 04:03 AMMatt Webb is a real Renaissance geek, and as such he's too busy to
actually read the great and defining works fo the Renaissance, such as
DaVinci's imposing 1,565-page Notebooks. At least not all in one gulp.
So Matt's poured all of the Notebooks (scarfed from the Project
Gutenberg site) into a script that sends out one page a day as RSS.
This is not unlike Phil Gyford's
Page-a-Day-Pepys'-Diary thing.
