i see. later read up on how to root 1st

do we need to save our data before root?

To be brutally honest,  this device needs no rooting actually. My gf running this device pure stock. Enjoying every minute of its fluidity.

She's quite a heavy Internet user as well..  Default browser open almost all the time,  always on some photo editing software...

also it's something similar to disabling User account control (UAC) for windows 7, in the sense that once you root your phone, your more susceptible to hacks and malware e.g. Mempodroid.

But this is a risk all of us who root our phones accept. The smart ones obviously install security apps like avast mobile security, adaway, SuperSU, amongst others for precautionary measures 

So if you manage the security of your android, then i think the risk is well worth it, seeing as a lot of useful apps require that your android smartphone is rooted.

just root only, nothing will lost

root only? it is ok? planning to root it asap..

If you dont install any Custom Firmware and root your phone only, then nothing will be lost 

possible to get brick or triangle?    did i need to download any software to root? odin?

if follow the right video tutorial then you wont brick it

yeah, need to download software : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671969

Follow this guide 

Not necessary only smart user uses such apparently
I have been using android 3 years n never bother about such stuff. To me these are all superfluous stuffs
Exception is superuser app. Or maybe I am dumb user

Android has been around for a few years now and yet the topic of security continues to be the source of some argument. On the one hand you have the argument that Android is not susceptible to virus threats and, provided you are careful about what you download, there is no real need for antivirus software.

On the other, you have reports and statistics claiming that malware is frighteningly common and any Android device without protection is sure to get infected. So where does the truth lie? We’ve asked experts from three prominent companies in mobile security — AV-Test, Avast, and Lookout — to help us figure out just how much danger we’re in.

here is also a real life example how useful security apps are

if you think your mobile security is inconsequential then that is your choice and i respect that. but i am more prudent based on my android usage, and the stuff of personal value i keep on my phone worth protecting 

but it's not like i am making this up, just refer to the sources i've linked and find out for yourself how vulnerable android really is 

I am fully aware of all these stuffs
I am not a new user
I believe is individual choice on such stuffs
If you think is good for you just go ahead

The Ultrabook category could potentially be killed off or diminished by Apple lawsuits

[Update: Apple's patent appears invalid due to prior art -- Sony Corp. (TYO:6758) released a teardrop laptop in 2004, the Sony VAIO X505.]

Apple, Inc. (AAPL) has brought chaos to the smartphone market, with a slew of lawsuits which essentially seek to ban all of its top smartphone competitors products.  According to Apple, all of its competitors are ripping off its technology.

Now Apple may be preparing to bring that same brand of litigious chaos to the world of personal computer, thanks to its victory in convinced the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to allow it to patent the design of its MacBook Air (MBA) case.  Apple was granted U.S. Design Patent D661,296 this week.

I. Nearly Every Ultrabook is in Violation

Very clever in its working, Apple's new intellectual property jewel is carefully crafted to place nearly every one of its competitors designs in violation, via making its claim very general and wide.

The patent covers claims exclusive ownership to thin teardrop/wedge-shaped notebook computers.  At first glance many of its competitors Ultrabooks would appear to be in violation of this patent.  In other words, with this patent, Apple appears to be well along the way to having the legal firepower necessary to obtain a ban all competitors lightweight laptops.
