Cute Butterfly Speakers iPod Dock with interchangeable faceplates

If you’re looking for an iPod dock that is a little more feminine, you’ll love these Butterfly Speakers. Although frankly, after staring at them for a few minutes I don’t see a single butterfly. I thought for a second maybe it was the overall shape, but even that is just curved nicely but not necessarily modeled after a butterfly. If anything this should be called Flower Speakers or something equally descriptive. Alright, they’re cute so I suppose I can let it slide that the product name doesn’t quite describe the product.

The “Hibernate” function on Windows XP

The “Hibernate” function on Windows XP:
The hibernate function on Windows XP is basically the same as stand by, but with one difference. The files and programs you have open will temporarily be saved onto a specific location on the hard drive, instead of RAM.

This means that the computer can be switched off while hibernating and it will consume no power. When you turn your Windows XP on again, everything will open instantly, just like after a standby. No startup screens and waste of time.



How to hibernate?

Another mystery is why the hibernate button isn’t shown on the shutdown menu by default. After all, hibernating is a lot better than standing by -no power consumption, longer than standby, computer can be turned off and makes no noise…

Anyway, to hibernate, go to the shutdown menu as usual: Start -> Turn Off Computer and hold down the shift key to relpace “stand by” with “hibernate”, It’s as easy as that.

DiskGO™ Secure GUARDIAN™ Flash Drive

I was recently directed to look at the DiskGO Secure GUARDIAN Flash Drive from EDGE Tech. It actually looks like a pretty sweet product. The two key features that they promote about it are it’s durability as well as the hardware based 256-bit AES encryption. Not bad for up to an 8 GB flash drive.

Read and write speeds seem decent at 25 MB / second and 16 MB / second respectively. It’s built for USB 2.0 but backward compatible to USB 1.1. The flash drive also comes with a Lifetime warrenty and free tech support.

Unfortunately for those of us who run Ubuntu Linux or Mac’s, there is no mention of support for operating systems other than Windows 2000+. As I have not actually received one to test, I can’t speak to how it would function on these systems.

Cool wooden peripherals tend to be expensive.

Now if only Lenovo can do away with that damn eraserhead.

How to Conserve Laptop Battery Life

How to Conserve Laptop Battery Life

Sure, HP managed to squeeze out 24 hours of battery life from one of their laptops. But we all know how possible that is in real-world conditions.

Still, maximizing battery life is a laudable goal, because that means you get more for each charge, or more what you pay for electricity.

Laptops may be as different as the residents of a cosmopolitan city, but there are some universal “truths” when it comes to prolonging battery life:

1. Dim Your Screen. Lots of juice keeps your screen bright. So, if you’re in a bright area anyway, why not shave off some levels your display brightness?
2. Turn Off What You Don’t Need. Don’t need to surf? Goodbye WiFi. No need to sync with your phone? Off with the Bluetooth.
3. Stick to Simple Apps. No CGI Rendering Please! Why waste time by forcing your laptop to do something intensive, when it won’t be able to do it as quickly when on AC?
4. Take Care of Your Laptop Battery. By treating it well, namely by plugging it only when it’s almost out of juice, you make a battery capable of carrying more power for a longer period of time.

Sony announces more Vaios

Sony is big on their new Vaio range, and this time round we have the NS and CS models to keep our wallets light but egos satisfied. Both models from Sony will offer portable multimedia solutions without breaking the bank, as prices start from $1,000 upwards (for the NS model) which enable customers to enjoy high definition entertainment on their computers. The Vaio NS will come with an optional Blu-ray disc optical drive if you’re up to it, but I would suggest watching Blu-ray movies over a large screen HDTV insted of on the monitor since the screen size would not do the movie justice. More on both the NS and CS models right after the jump.

The Vaio NS comes with a 15.4″ widescreen LCD display that is augmented by Sony’s proprietary XBRITE-ECO LCD technology, exuding sharp details and vivid colors to tickle your senses. It makes accessing music, movies and the Internet a snap, featuring integrated A/V mode with a dedicated menu, an Intel Core 2 Duo processor running the proceedings smoothly, a decent amount of RAM to make sure no bottlenecks occur, and more than enough storage for your everyday work and entertainment needs. If you’re interested in the Vaio NS line, then you can choose from nightfall blue, silk white and granite silver colors. Stock Vaio NS notebooks will retail from $650, but those who opt for the Blu-ray disc model must fork out a minimum of $1,000.

As for the Vaio CS, this model will come in a choice of sangria, cosmopolitan, dove and black colors. You get a smaller 14.1″ widescreen LCD display with a similar XBRITE-ECO LCD technology and an optional Blu-ray optical drive. The keyboard is slightly different from the rest, boasting spacing between keys for a more comfortable typing experience. I haven’t tried it out for myself just yet, but I suppose extensive tests have been done to come to such a conclusion. Other features include a specialized keyboard font and a 12-tone music analyzer, all powered by Intel’s Centrino 2 processor family. The Vaio CS will retail for $920 upwards, but if you want a Blu-ray model, then be prepared to meet the slightly higher asking price of $1,070. Image courtesy of Engadget.
