No one aside from IBM got that thing working correctly. Dell's trackpad has some kind of hysteresis it continues to track even after lifting the finger if you apply a bit too much force.Mihir wrote:Just upgraded to Windows 8.1 on my Dell Ultrabook. Their trackpad design is starting to piss me off.

Yes. My MBP does (15" retina, i7 quad core, late 2013/early 2014 with the latest chipset). But then, this HDMI out is nothing a thunderbolt to HDMI adapter (which I am sure Phroot will sell online) will not fix , which will make sure that Mahdi in heaven smiles approvingly with Phroot's cash register goes ka-ching!pandyan wrote:For some reason mb dont have hdmi out.

Not true. Phroot's touch pads were historically very good and creams everyone else's.negi wrote: No one aside from IBM got that thing working correctly. Dell's trackpad has some kind of hysteresis it continues to track even after lifting the finger if you apply a bit too much force.

So NotionInk has joined the ranks of PC assembly shops from Nehru Place and will be using Intel processors and WindowsMicrosoft and Intel are providing technology inputs for a Bangalore-based startup that is building touch-enabled computing devices or ultra-books that will be launched later this year.
Mean-e-while, Shravan babu has upgraded his snake oil salesman skills and learned YumBeeAye speak.....inflection points, technology inputs, risk capital. No mention of a piss poor product with crappy execution served with dollops of bull droppings"It is a big inflection point for us," said Rohan Shravan, 28, founder of Notion Ink, who launched Adam five months before Apple placed the first version of the iPad on store shelves in April 2010.However, in the ensuing months as the iPad gained iconic status, Adam dropped by the wayside, felled by the lack of risk capital to grow the business.
He is truly the Kejriwal of Indian startups.It will be an ultrabook, a tablet, a laptop, a PC, an input device, an output device, a networking device, an audio device!!!! ZOMG! Revolutionary!Notion Ink's touch-enabled ultrabook will be a convergence of an ultrabook, a tablet and a laptop.
"This is how things are done here in Silicon Valley: big companies know they can't innovate like startups can, so they partner with them and acquire them," said Vivek Wadhwa, (hint hint, NotionInk can be get acquired by Microsoft or Intel) a fellow at the Rock Center for Corporate Governance at Stanford University, who is an evangelist for low cost tablets such as Datawind's Aakash. In India, Intel has also partnered with Noida-based mobile phone maker Lava to launch the Xolo smartphone.
Uncle ji didn't get the memo that tablet sales are stagnating too. Maybe he only reads his own tripe. Tablets are not replacing laptops as predicted by learned pundits and snake oil salesmen few years ago. Essentially upgrade cycles have lengthened for all categories leading to decline in sales.Earlier this year Microsoft announced a partnership with Gurgaon-based handset maker Micromax to offer Windows-powered smartphones. "Microsoft and Intel are both worried about the rate at which the market is shifting," said Wadhwa. "It rapidly went from desktops to laptops to tablets.
Pah.. I am getting more YumBeeYead by the day. For eg, I have been rather skeptical about this entire run up in this market about Modi coming in and abracadabra things are fine "acche din aa gaye " stuff. I wrote in the Modi sarkar dhaaga about asking Indra Dev to send in the monsoons and keep El Nino out, but got yelled at by the Yahoos here, added that, it now looks like Iraq is coming apart and if there is any disruption in the southern provinces or if there is Iranian intervention and a general Shia-Sunni war (which I think is inevitable in the medium to long term, even if they manage to keep an immediate lid on it) oil supplies will be severely take it in the gonads and the global economy will be flushed down the Pakistan with Indian markets following faster than you can say "Har Har Modi". Nothing Modi does in the near term call pull it back up. Even with Modi's best efforts , it will be atleast a year before we see any effects on the ground, the Congress really left a scorched earth for him.Raja Bose wrote:Hopefully by now he has shed enough of his YumBeeAye coils and is moderately enlightened

Sort of yes. What I am is called statistical arbitrage. In Inglees, exploit statistical mispricings of related stuff. Crude example , if rice is Rs 10/kg in Hosur and Rs 15/kg in Bangalore, buy in Hosur and sell in Bangalore until the prices converge and pocket Rs 5/kg (less transport, mamool for checkpost in HSRA/BLR border and chai paani , baata for Abduls, hafta for the beat Mamoo and overheads).Raja Bose wrote:So vina mullah is now man-e-middle dalal
Exactly . I needed a fast snappy top end machine , nearly server class to do serious number crunching and graphics and a backup and storage solution to avoid any IED mubaraks. The normal way of doing it would have been a Mickey Saaft based generic brick that weighs a ton , with a crappy display and a RAID for storage.I looked around and checked out the new MBP retina late 2013 and liked what I saw, very light, thin, i7 quadcore, latest chipset , SSD , retina , beautifully engineered , the works.. And on top of that, the Mac OS is really BSD Unix, so all the stuff I developed for Bijiness on my Ubuntu dabba, was a simple file transfer and run with little or no mods (maybe tweak the environment variables on the Mac suitably). Brilliant performance, noiseless, stunning display, love it.Anujan wrote:Fruitco products are the best bar none. That applies to MBP (yes a few nitpicks but any typical windows maal will make you want to chew your foot off. Yes that includes surface. Bite me*). It also applies to iphunwa. If they introduce a 4.7 incher, unless you want infinite customizability and different price points, it will be the optimum phunwa. And router. Gawd routers! (and I will add storage)!

Yes. Absolutely.Buy a macbook air and a iPad mini instead.

Well, this is not a "riskless" arbitrage (think spot and futures relationship, put call parity , interest rate term structure etc. Google chacha/ Wiki mausi will help if you arent familiar and ask), where the relationship is clearly mathematically defined and enforced. Those will be very short lived, becomes a comp sci arms race to exploit them (lot of those are written in low level code in FPGA directly rather than a processor in a higher level language), so the guy who exploits them first gets it.matrimc wrote:Just curious (not a finance person by a long shot) Would it work in efficient markets?
