Toshiba to make 128GB solid state drive
Mass production under way

By Nick Farrell: Monday, 10 December 2007, 7:25 AM


TOSHIBA SAID that it will mass produce solid state drives ranging in sizes of between 32 gigabytes to 128 gigabytes next year.

The 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch drives will be launched in May as part of a cunning plan to push solid state drives and force the current technology into signing its UB40.

Solid state drivers are fast, quiet and currently extremely expensive. So far they have only been seen in portable devices like tablet and Ultra-Mobile PCs and even then only in small sizes.

Currently, Samsung Electronics and Sandisk already make solid-state drives but the sizes of drives being talked about by Toshiba is new.

According to Reuters, Micron also has plans to enter the solid state drive market, with mass production early next year.

Memoreeee warranteee reeeewrite

ASUS has issued a statement saying that it was ok for punters to upgrade the RAM on the eeeePC

Thanks to a stunning cock-up on the design front, the eeeeeeePC shipped with a warning sticker over the access door to the single ODIMM slot on some models of the ASUS Eee PC.

These stickers told of the perils of taking the back off your eeeePC. Yea, the four horses of the apocalypse, shall ride, the warranty shall be voided and lo there shall be great gnashing of teeth when the seal is broken.

But as users pointed out, that would all be very well if you did not have to stick in extra RAM. The eeeePC ships with the memory of a goldfish. It could only remember your name and the time.

So now Asustek has told the world plus dog that memory upgrades will not void the warranty. In fact when the eeeeeePC [has your keyboard got stuck? Ed.] ships in future the seal will not be there.

Asus will actually replace the warranty label with a label to warn users that the outfit will not be responsible for the damage caused by improper hardware change if you really want it in writing.

The firm has also changed its written Limited Warranty policies to cope with the changes.

That is not to say that Asus thinks letting your Uncle Stan, who everyone thinks is a bit handy with computers because he used to clean the floors at IBM, should be allowed to have a tinker with it. µ

Asustek next-generation Eee PCs said to feature resistive touch screen panels
Original date: 2008/3/24
Translator: Greg Wu

Despite Jerry Shen, president of Asustek, stating in January that the company will not implement a touch screen panel option in the company's next-generation Eee PCs, sources at touch screen panel makers recently indicated that Asustek will in fact use resistive touch panels when it launches its next-generation Eee PC in the second quarter of this year.

You got the aircraft current adaptor?
