PCs today are like SUVs. They are big, heavy and uses up alot of natural resources just to produce and  power it. Many of the average PCs use 300Ws just to do the simplest tasks of checking email, chatting online, doing spreadsheets and presentations, causing a toll on Mother Earth. Qbit Online’s line of Qbit EPCs (Efficient PCs) uses less than 20W of power and yet can startup to desktop within 50 seconds using the included linux OS. It is fanless (0 dB) and compact, similar in size to a DVD disc. Greater power comes greater responsibiity. Use less power and be more carefree =D! Click here for more photos. Item available now.

Phone makers in China are getting creative with their designs for their phones. Looking cool and attractive might be something they still need to work on though. Click here for more phones available in China.

Sorry for the overexposures…seems like my Casio EX-S600 is dying out on me. Here are some pics on the Asus 904HD. The 904 is basically a 1000 with a smaller screen. But then, you get a bigger keyboard and a price ranged in the 900 series. Its like a Volvo body with a Mazda engine =). More photos here. Product available for purchase here.

The Eee box is made avaiable to the press today in Taiwan. For more previews of what will be included in the retail package, click here.

Asus has revealed the next model on the product line up, the 904. It sports bigger keys for the keyboard (finally!). The size is about the same as 1000 series with the LCD size downgraded to a 8.9″ (thus the black frame around the LCD screen). More photos of the 904 here. Photos courtesy of Jeremy-3C.

Gaming PCs just got more interesting with Acer’s Gundam-ish Aspire G7700 Predator gaming PC. Its oil filled hinges for the sliding lid makes the lid turn smoothly and adds a quality feel. Otherwise than that, it is the hardware that impresses.

It takes about 26 seconds for the 901 to complete startup and only about 4 seconds to shut down. Of course this is from a clean install with no other softwares installed. More photos and descriptions on the Eee 901 here. Item is available for purchase here including FREE global express shipping.

Unboxing of the MSI Wind. It comes with a carrying bag as seen in the picture. The battery surprisingly is only 2200mAh. Somehow the more rounded Wind looks more instyle compared to the Asus Eee, even with the recently 901 or 1000H. But its mostly plasticky finish makes it look more entry looking compared with the Eees. More photos here. Product is avaialable for purchase here with global express shipping.
