Like Apple creating and developing news ways and means to run our electronic materials, concepts with real technological innovations appear more than ever.
Here is that features the tomorrow laptop. In the same direction that the next mobile phones, this computer possesses two screens, a multi sensitive touch screen, not far from the iPhone system.
As of September 2007, about 7,000 laptops were being tested by children around the world. Many governments have expressed interest in the laptop or verbally committed to buying it, but Negroponte said that some haven't followed through on their promises. Still, enough computers were ordered -- observers estimated more than three million -- that full-scale production began in July 2007.
The OLPC Foundation faces some challenges and criticism besides getting governments to commit to buying the XO. A common question is: Why give a child a laptop when he might need or other basic amenities? To that, the OLPC says that the XO laptop offers children a sense of ownership and ensures that they're no longer dependent on a corrupt or inept government to provide educational opportunities. The computer is a powerful tool for learning and collaboration, exposing children to a wealth of knowledge and providing opportunities that they would not normally have. It also replaces the need for textbooks, which are expensive, easily damaged and less interactive.
Ben Heckendorn over at Engadget has just posted Apparently this one is thinner and lighter and sports some essential upgrades. If you’re interested in (seriously) voiding your warranty then stay tuned to Engadget because he’s also working on an in-depth tutorial on how to build your own. Scary.

LG Electronics, the second-largest electronics company in Korea, has created a concept eco-laptop called the e-Book. It uses a biofuel cell, and features organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). OLEDs do not need a frame around them, and they consume less electricity than LCDs. The fuel cells of the e-Book use natural gas, methanol, and other eco-friendly liquid fuels. The fuel is stored in a transparent cylindrical hinge. I'm not sure why you would want to switch to fuel-based power on laptops, since they are already fairly energy efficient. This concept notebook received a Red Dot Award nomination for “Best Concept Design” for 2006. The keypad will also be made of a singe OLED panel, like the one used in LG’s Chocolate Phone, according to the report.
Fuel Cells will allow for much quicker recharging of "batteries"... the same difference between 5 minutes at a gas pump and leaving your electric car plugged in overnight. The fuel cells themselves will be much better for the environment, no batteries that wear out every year or two! A Fuel Cell can produce much more electricity than a battery of the same volume, though there could be heat issues, hence why the battery has so much open air around it (it looks pretty, but there is definitely a reason for it)
Dell completed the overhaul of its XPS notebook line by introducing the XPS M1530. The system is one of Dell's few high-end 15-inch notebooks and is aimed at the same audience that would otherwise seek slim, stylized portables such as Apple's MacBook Pro: the minimalist system is 0.9 inches deep at its thinnest point and uses a slot-load optical drive (like the M1330) in place of the usual tray-loading option. A minimum 128MB GeForce 8400M GS graphics chip provides dedicated 3D acceleration even on the least expensive model, which also includes a 2-megapixel webcam and a fingerprint reader
A base system starts at as little as $999 by using a 1.5GHz Core 2 Duo, 1GB of memory, and a 120GB hard disk backed by a DVD burner. Buyers can custom-order the notebook, however, to use as much as a 2.6GHz Core 2 Duo as well as 4GB of memory, 250GB of storage, a Blu-ray burner, and faster 256MB GeForce 8600M GT graphics. The M1530 can be colored with a black, red, or white outer shell and is available to order now, but should ship by mid-December. The price tag starts from $999 depending on the kit.

The government of India has signed an agreement with the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project and will purchase 250,000 of the organization's XO laptops. The machines will be distributed to students throughout the country. India's decision to embrace OLPC is a bit unexpected in light of the country's past antagonism towards the project.
OLPC is a nonprofit organization that builds low-cost education laptops to sell in bulk to governments of developing countries. Despite these setbacks, the program is still marching on and continuing to sell units as it works on an updated model and an innovative next-generation version.
Initially, the most common way to connect computers to the internet was with a static IP. An IP is the numerical address of a computer connected to the internet. A static IP is an address which does not change. Since the IP address never changed, a static IP made it very easy to point a domain name to a computer on the internet.
However, there are a limited number of static IP addresses in the world and as they became scarce they became harder to obtain and the cost of obtaining a static IP moved out of the range of most internet users. As a result, internet service providers (ISP's) began to use a system of "pooled" IP addresses which could be handed out at random to computers as they connected to the internet. This system became known as addressing. Connect to your ISP and your computer is assigned a random address from the pool. Disconnect from your ISP and the IP address goes back into the pool. Connect your computer again later and it is very unlikely that you will get the same IP address. Some service providers may even change your IP at seemingly random times, and not just when you connect and disconnect.
Modern computers work by taking input, processing it, and returning it as output, millions of times per second.
How does it process this input?
Where does it get its input?
Different types of input come from different places. The keyboard10 sends letters and numbers to the computer, a mouse9 sends information on what to do with the cursor, and a microphone sends sounds. Although you don't control it directly, the internet can also send input. Even though all this information is different, it is all transmitted in the same language that all computers use, binary, which is just a series of ones and zeros.
What happens to the output?

There are just a few small steps you need to take and to keep you computer protected, and few simple ways to protect yourself from online threats.
Your home computer(s) contain vast amounts of information about you and your family members. In all likelihood, your home computer has highly sensitive information sitting on your hard drive including tax returns, monthly financial records, and bank and credit card account numbers. In addition, your computer probably contains family and other photos that have sentimental value or a music collection you accumulated over a long period of time.
You wouldn’t want any of this information to fall into the hands of criminals or be destroyed if your computer becomes harmed by spyware
or a virus
The good news is that by following a few easy steps you keep your defenses up and your computer protected.
There are two different types of computer, a desktop and a laptop:
Just like using any piece of equipment, you have to think about your health and safety when using computers. This is why it is important to make sure your computer is set–up correctly –
The monitor is at the correct height, the top line in line with your line of eyesight.
The chair is at the correct height so your feet are on the floor.
The screen is at the correct brightness to suit the room you are in.
The keyboard and mouse are within easy reach.
Cables are tidied away so they don't clutter up the desk, or get in the way of your legs under the desk.
Take regular screen breaks so you are not in the same position for long periods of time.
Start your computer and log on to Microsoft Windows. Windows automatically detects that you are connected to the Internet.
A router (which might also have wireless networking built in) allows you to connect several computers to each other and to the Internet. The router sits between your computers and the modem provided by your ISP. You connect the router to the modem, and then connect all your computers to the router.To connect more than one computer to the Internet, you need a
