Android Tablet – the ASUS transformer
Is it a tablet or is it a laptop? It’s both. The Asus Transformer is an Android Tablet that has a keyboard to dock to. With a 10″ screen and weighing just 680g it makes an ideal tablet. We just got one here and found it easy to use and the screen is really good, great viewing angles, though like most tablets not so good in direct sunlight. Running Android 3.0, it also comes with full Flash support (unlike some other tablets) and as well as mini HDMI and a headphone jack it has a Micro SD card slot allowing you to expand the memory available.
Then you add the keyboard, and this adds 2 USB ports and an SD card reader as well as a multi touch mouse pad and well, keyboard. It also extends your battery life from 9.5 to up to 16 hours. Not bad at all. It also includes a 5MP rear camera, a 1.2MP front camera and will shoot HD video.
Not a bad tablet at all and currently my favourite toy.
Speed up boot times
A new piece of software being developed examines all the processes and services that start with your computer and helps you choose to stop them starting or delay the startup until after boot. It’s called soluto and can be downloaded from www.soluto.com. If you understand a bit about which programs are stalling your computer this will help you choose which ones to uninstall or delay.
For example by stopping some toolbars from starting, some automatic updates from programs I rarely use and uninstalling some software that came with my laptop but I don’t use I was able to knock 10 seconds off my boot time.

Backups
