Asus Transformer Book 5, $1200 double-Intel “converged” device

Posted by – June 5, 2014

Asus shows their $1200 laptop/tablet/phone combination device, with an Intel processor in the Phone (with LTE support) and another Intel processor in the Tablet, with a keyboard dock. They say battery life is fine, we’ll see about that. Price I think is around $1200 or $1300, since they say it costs something like a $1000 laptop + their zenphone. Asus has been showing a lot of Intel devices for many years, but I don’t think they have been selling many.

My father’s funeral – part 2 of 3

Posted by – May 19, 2014
Category: Exclusive videos

If you have your father, see him as often as possible, call him often, bring him with you on your travels, buy him a car before it’s too late!

The last time I spoke with my father on the phone was a year ago today, on the 18th of May 2013 at 20:05PM. He probably died the day after (according to his phone and firefox web browsing history). He was found dead in the shower, inundating the house (without house insurance) two and a half weeks later as neighbors noticed water coming out of the garage. I was told the bad news by my sister as I just finished video-blogging at Computex 2013 in Taipei.
