Electricity Is Dirty! Always Use An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)

Electricity from the outlet is dirty! Ideally, the electricity would come out of the wall at an exact voltage and an exact frequency. Technically it is possible to have clean power out of an outlet, but financially, most consumers (homes and businesses) just don�t want to pay that price, so power companies will not provide it. They don�t have to; vacuum cleaners, fans, air conditioners, TVs, printers and light bulbs work just fine with that dirty electricity.

Dell’s Android iPod challenger: Microsoft in play?

A crazy thought: Is Dell toying with Microsoft with its stealthy mobile device project? That’s what I wondered after reading the Wall Street Journal story about Dell developing Android-based devices , including a Web tablet slightly bigger than an iPod Touch and phones that could go on sale later this year. An excerpt: The development effort is one of the first experiments by a big-name PC maker in a nascent category of products known as mobile Internet devices, or MIDs, which are designed to fill a perceived gap between mobile phones and laptop computers.

Tip of the Week: Use a TSA-Approved Laptop Bag

Since a recent Ponemon Institute study revealed almost 12,000 laptops per week lost or stolen in US airports alone, and that the worst spot for loss/theft is the security checkpoint (no surprise there), it’s worth a tip at that very point. I have to be careful, since I have previously recommended that folks not carry a laptop bag that is obviously a laptop bag at all–it screams “Laptop inside! Come steal me!” But as you consider what your travel repertoire will include, take a look at the many “checkpoint friendly” cases out there

Study: 59 million netbooks will ship in 2013 (might not still be called netbooks)

I always get a kick out of reports that predict what will be happening 4 years from now in an industry segment that didn’t even exist 2 years ago. So I’m taking Semico ’s recent prediction that 22% of the mobile PC market will belong to netbooks in 2013 with a grain of salt. According to the report, 59 million netbooks will ship that year
