Remember that ASUS could-be-a-SideShow gadget yesterday? Well, our predictions were confirmed with the news from the company that they’re offering a selection of new motherboards specifically designed to work with Microsoft Vista.
In addition to the “ScreenDUO” SideShow module, which can synchronise information from the PC or websites, display RSS messages and meeting schedules (among other things), the ‘boards come complete with a remote control for power, media control and quick-launching certain apps. Trusted Platform Modules and a start-up accelerator for use with Vista’s ReadyBoot feature round out the package.

I am going to a “lunch and learn” next week on Microsoft Vista and will post a vodcast on their presentation the link of which I can forward to you if you would like. Just let me know. In the mean time I wanted to show you a video I made at the Microsoft Alumni Network’s “After the holidays party”. I think Microsoft makes an interesting anthropological subject:

My desktop PC is built from an ASUS barebone and it is excellent. Would certainly be open to purchasing something like this from them when I build a new one!
