I’m one of many people that work from the comfort of my own home. Now, you can be more comfortable working from your own backyard, and no I’m not talking about pulling a pool chair with a laptop, but an office room on your backyard.
A company called Cedarshed who specializes in gazebos and spa enclosures is selling backyard DIY home office kit for those who are trying to avoid room addition inside their house but still need a home office.

This can’t be good for the laptop, Dell and the owner. Poor thing, it was just sitting there, quietly in standby mode contemplating about life as a laptop. Then out of the blue, its ass catches on fire! Then the next thing you know it’s on the floor getting hosed down with water. Living the life of a Dell laptop suck ass. I’m pretty fortunate that my baby Macbook Pro will probably never have to endure such pain and suffering.

Now why didn’t I think of this? Conceptually this is a really good idea to provide an all in one mobile home if you will for the homeless. There’s an area to store and carry recyclable materials that are then sold – this is one means of supporting themselves. There’s also a “secret” bin to store their private belongings like precious crap that others threw out. I also noticed there’s an optional fold out cot; providing a place to rest after a long days journey.
First off there are two things missing from this laptop, the girls and Mac OS X. The features on this featured packed laptop is astounding; its got Dual Core, 1GB of DDR, GeForce Go 7300, BMD TV Tuner, 3G EVDO broadband connection and it’s under 1.1 kilogram!

While Cesar of Zune Insider isn’t permitted to say a whole lot about the Zune, he is however able to confirm that Zune will ship with pre-loaded content. He’s unable to share who or what will be on the device. He promised that he’ll blog the info as soon as he knows more. Knowledge is power and right now, Microsoft holds all the knowledge.
I can only speculate that the content can either be games or lame ass records from some no namer band.
The Cabernet couch is one unique looking piece of furniture made from 33 empty Cabernet jugs and a vintage corduroy futon mattress. It’s a sweet looking furniture and all, but will it hold up to those special moments you share with your companion? Is there a weight restriction in the even that you may have a friend or family that’s slightly overweight? Yep, these are all very important questions that require answers.
Ceiling fans are pretty dull and normally treated as nothing more than a tool. Not anymore, thanks to Artemis ceiling fan. These artistically sculpture fans are like no others because they differ in every angle, with natural yet exotic surfaces creating absolutely no noise. These sensuous curves are very exotic; like that of a supermodel. Damn that was weird; please don’t tell my wife she’s going to be very jealous.

This morning Canon USA and Canon Inc. announced the release of two prosumer HDV camcorders, the XH G1 ($7000) and XH A1 ($4000). Both sports the identical imaging system as Canon’s XL H1, including three 1/3-inch 16:9 CCDs and the ability to record 1080i HDTV recording in both 60 interlaced and 24 frame rate modes. Other features include an image-stabilized 20x optical zoom lens that isn’t interchangeable and a 2.8-inch LCD view screen. These two new HDV camcorders are a welcome update to the 4-year old GL2, which remained unchanged during that time.
Earlier, I’d mentioned the XH G1 and HX A1 are identical, so why the $3,000 difference? The XH G1 is professionally equipped with “jack pack” of input and output ports like HD/SD-SDI, Genlock and TC in/out. This allows streaming uncompressed HD footage for recording to another format with less compression than the consumer HDV taps.
