IBM Nanotechnology Investment

International Business Machines (IBM) is to invest a large amount of money into developing nanotechnology concepts and researching the applications of nano machines. This was announced by Bloomberg Magazine days after the investment was officially announced by the company. The Nanotechnology research center in New York would be the institution receiving the finances to research the area and the state would also invest some 400 million dollars into the initiative. The project would be supported by Intel and Globalfoundies (Taiwan company) and the sides would be packaging some 4,4 billion dollars investment into the research of the potential use of micro machines.

IBM is currently the largest researcher of nano technologies. The chart above indicates the presence of companies in the US that constantly develop nano concepts and study the potential application of the technology. Working along with NASA on such projects, the experience of International Business Machines is undoubted and joining force with Intel means that the partnership might lead to quite successful results. The investment is not capped at only 4,4 billion dollars and the people from the fund management revealed that the parties have agreed to add up finances should there be any significant satisfactory research results that might enlighten the future use of nanotechnologies.

The investment would be mainly aimed at developing computer technologies using nano machines. This would ensure the development of super small computers and the interaction between different computer configurations and computerized systems would be easier. For example, such nanotechnology might be use for the creation of instant translators so language would not be a problem for people travelling across the world, also the technology might be used to payment cards, GPS systems etc. The aim is the creation of small and powerful enough computer processor that can maintain steady and continuous work as the standard processing devices.

Another aim (not officially announced) of the project is to put nanotechnology in use of medicine – even though still being a concept, the idea of putting nano machines into the bloodstream of a human being is an attractive opportunity to explore and develop cures against various diseases.

Sony Vaio Z Series

Sony has proven to be the company aiming to strike down ordinary lap top performance and impose new rules in the game. The machines that the Japanese company produces are keeping the best laptop performance and are expanding in sales, becoming the major competitor for Mac machines. However, what differentiates the two major machines is the fact that the software-friendly Vaio is not just a laptop for browsing and music (like most of the Mac computers) – it is actually More

Roaming broadband is the new essential

Special travel roaming fees

always led me to believe that I was about to be ripped off by my mobile phone network. Yet recently I bought myself a new Smartphone and somehow managed to get a really good roaming deal with it.

As you know I’m a bit of a techno tycoon, but with the recent economic trials faced by everyone, I’ve become as price conscious as the next person and am always on the look out for people trying More

My New Netbook.

At the end of last month, my Acer Aspire netbook passed away. It was a sad, grey day and I spent most of it alone, weeping uncontrollably. Well, actually that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but I was a little miffed… ‘It’s no good sitting around here brooding about it’, I told myself sternly, ‘Get out there and find yourself a nice new one!!‘ So (taking my own advice) that is exactly what I did… More

Apple iOS Set To Rule The Tablet Market For Another Four Years

My friend and I were engaging the services of data recovery London when we the news item on Apple’s iOS being set to dominate the tablet market up to 2015. We were amazed at that prediction because the Apple iOS is relatively new to the tablet market.

Gartner, the research firm is very optimistic about the prospects of Apple iOS, in the future, in spite of the heavy competition from other operating systems. They say that Apple iOS will dominate More

64 Bit vs. 32 Bit Processors

I was planning to travel to the Caribbean recently and whilst online seeking advice from my roaming advisor I was a bit frustrated by how my laptop was functioning as certain application would not operate as well as it should be. So I spoke with a techie friend of mine who asked me is it is using a 32 Bit or 64 bit processor. So I checked but wondered what’s the difference. Here’s what I learnt.

Both 32 Bit processor and 64 Bit processor have some advantages and disadvantages. But deciding which one is better depends on how you want to use your PC.

There is a binary digit difference between 32 Bit processor and 64 Bit processor but it’s a mathematical difference so let’s just avoid this difference and see how this binary digit difference affects these processors.

Just because 64 sounds larger than 32, people think that 64-bit processor is better than 32 bit processors but there is not much software available that are compatible with 64-bit processors so you don’ t get the best out of it.

The key advantages of the 64 Bit procesors are,

Silicon processes are more advanced,

There are more transistors,

Its speed is faster.

Sadly for us the consumers 64-bit processors are very expensive if you compare the price with 32-bit processors. But things will change when the software vendors start making software that is compatible with 64-bit processors.

Once you start using a 64-bit processor, you don’t have to think about buying another processor for years. But for now, 32-bit processors are less expensive and all the software is compatible with 32-bit processors.

My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding

My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding is one of Channel 4’s latest inquisitive documentaries into the lives of peculiar people. Most of what Channel 4 produces tends to be quite voyeuristic – almost parasitic – and rarely captures an in-depth but impartial view of the subjects. Channel 4 is renowned for preying on the vulnerable, the unfortunate, or the just-plain-dim.

This latest addition to the broadcaster’s portfolio is a solid success, however. It follows the lives of several “travelling” families (not More

Take a Break from Technology

I really need to take a break from all things technology. For the last few months, and almost every day all through Christmas I’ve found that I’ve been so immersed in technology, upgrades, and the social web that I haven’t actually taken much time to come up for air. You’d think that Christmas Day would have been a time to take a break, but it was another day with a lot of computer time like any other.
