Real cars of the future are not vehicles that will roll on four wheels and look like sleek streaks of lightning or oblong tear drops that hum instead of roar. No, the true prospect of visionary transport is not bound by the winding roads but by the rush of the winds in the sky.
The Main reason most people today don't own airplanes is not because they are not smart enough to learn to fly. It is because of the initial cost of Flight training and owning and maintaining an aircraft not to mention storing it, is beyond most peoples financial means.A flying car could be the turning point of all that.
How many times has science fiction turn to fact. You dream it! You can do it! and it will really come to pass! everybody will be on air flying1 no more traffic on road1 we have enough space on air.
It is, perhaps, one of the more enduring questions about the future: When will flying cars arrive? I don’t have an exact answer, but I’m optimistic that the first versions will appear within a decade’s time. No more late for work.
Just think back 100 days ago owning an automobile was a really big deal and involved considerable mechanical skills and expense.A lot of people actually hated the dam things cos no money.
How beautiful it is to be on one of this things
And finally, If someone in the USA doesn't push to get a flying car on the market it will be done by somebody else in another country.ie Japan,China, India . And then they will be selling them here.
White earphones too bland for you? Black too slow? Your otherwise high-end cans just not expensive enough? Logic3 hopes to remedy your plight with its new line of Ferrari-branded earphones and headphones.
Logic3's Cavallino line is intended for the well-heeled audio enthusiast with aluminum housings covered in hand-stitched, lambskin leather. The Scuderia collection is also built with aluminum but instead of leather, the earphones' colors closely match those of the Ferrari F1 team. Yellow badges and aluminum grilles complete the look.
Both lines also include over-the-ear headphones and Bluetooth compatible dock station speakers. The Scuderia line headphones mimic the look of hearing protection worn by F1 pit crews.
In Ferrari's online store, Scuderia earphones are $166. Cavallino shoppers will pay between $220 and $249 for earphones. Performance specs look to be the same between the different lines as well as price levels. Headphones start at $334 and cap out at $441 in the Scuderia lineup while entry into the Cavallino headphones is $389 and goes up to $481. Sound performance is the same as that for the lower-end lineup.
Ferrari also lent its brand to three speaker dock models. A Scuderia-level speaker without Bluetooth is $667 and $835 with the wireless technology. The Cavallino model gets better performance specs, a different looking shell and $1,017 price tag.
Apple’s seventh-generation smartphone will be a major update, boasting substantially better specs than its predecessor, an analyst has forecast.
According to Peter Misek of Jefferies, the handset informally dubbed the iPhone 5S will feature a camera and a screen rocking a so-called “super HD” resolution, which we can only assume means higher than 1080p (the iPhone 5 features a ‘sub-HD’ resolution of 1136 x 640).
Moreover, the display - which may be even labelled ‘Retina+’ to reflect the increased pixel count - is also likely to be an IGZO (Indium gallium zinc oxide) variety. This, and we’re paraphrasing Wikipedia here, enables smaller pixels for a higher resolution display than the amorphous silicon typically used for the active layer of an LCD screen.
Fret not, Misek also predicts the 5S will be equipped with bigger battery to cope with the extra drain on juice. Makes sense. But then again, he also reckons that Near Field Communication might finally make an appearance. So take these prophecies for what you will.
The handset is expected to land sometime in June or July, which may seem odd given Apple has opted for an autumn release cycle for the last two iPhones, but some analysts believe that a summer launch may be inevitable after sales of the iPhone took a dive in the two quarters before the release of the latest model.
Another mooted update – or improvement, depending on how you look at it – is the possibility of a 128GB model, and perhaps less plausibly, six to eight colour variants like the iPod touch, which, we think is a bit too far-fetched.
Rumours have been doing the rounds that Apple has already ordered a ‘trial production’ of the iPhone 5S in a relatively small batch of 50-100k units and is expected to go into volume production in the first quarter of 2013, which would make a summer launch very much possible.
Electric bicycles are not yet an everyday sight on the streets of London or New York City, but that’s about to change.
Last year, more than 25 million electric two-wheelers were sold in China, adding to the 120 million already on the road, and there are indications that electric bikes could soon take off in the West as well.
A recent report by Pike Research predicted that e-bike sales in the U.S. will see annual growth rates of approximately 20 percent over the next six years, and high-end car manufacturers like BMW and Audi are already developing e-bike models to meet the growing demand.
Other factors, including the rise of bicycle commuting in U.S. and European cities, high gas prices and concerns about global warming, are also likely to boost the e-bike market. Plus, these bikes are just plain fun to ride.
Steve Roseman, founder of the San Francisco-based Electric Bike Network, recently told Outside Magazine that riding one felt like “a fairy godmother tapped you on the shoulder and made you twice as strong.”
Convinced yet? If you’re ready to buy, here’s a list of the top e-bikes to suit every personality.
RIM's yet-to-be-announced BlackBerry Z10 handset has come face-to-face with the iPhone 5 in a new comparison video.
The all-touchscreen BB10, which is all set for a grand unveiling at the end of January, has been leaked more times than we care to remember, but never in this much detail and never next to its chief nemesis.
German blog telekon-presse.ak has provided a hands-on with what is all-but-certain to be the Z10, comparing design, build, software and features with Apple's latest and greatest mobile handset.
According to the hands-on comparison, the BB10 voice control system does a better job than Siri during a request to send a message. It was more accurate and faster on the Z10 than the iPhone 5.
What's left to see?
The video also shows how the respective operating system deals with incoming text messages and offers a neat look at BB10's Peak View feature, which gives users a quick look at items in the BlackBerry Hub.
Other highlights include a look at the different ways multitasking is handled by the OS, and how app icons are presented, while it also shows how to kill active apps and offers a look at the respective Twitter apps.
You can check out the interesting video comparison below. At this rate RIM will have nothing left to reveal on January 30, when it holds launch events around the world.
What do you think? On that evidence can the Z10 challenge the iPhone 5 on a level playing field? Let us know in the comments section below.
As we sit in front of the latest version of Ubuntu, Fedora or SUSE, revelling in the glorious animated desktops, taking pleasure in the ease-of-use the GUI grants and enjoying the fact that most of our hardware works out of the box, do we ever wonder how on Earth our favourite operating system got to this point?
Do we consider and appreciate the amount of time and effort that a long list of developers have taken in reaching this Zen-like state of man and OS? Most likely, not.
A quick reminisce of Linux distros long gone made us think about the history of this wonderful OS, and its journey over the last couple of decades. When was it born? How did it evolve? What distros stand out in history as the pivotal turning point that changed a humble bedroom project into the desktop OS we have today? And which poor distros fell by the wayside as failed, crumpled heaps?
Let's, then, take a step back in time as we embark upon a chronological look at Linux, and see how history has shaped the mighty penguin.
1991
Humble beginnings…
In the beginning, there was Unix, created by the bearded ones, Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie, in 1969. After that, throughout the eighties, a number of projects started life, all based on the encompassing vision that is Unix.
From Richard Stallman's GNU Project, the Berkley Software Distribution (BSD), the book Operating Systems: Design and Implementation by Professor Andrew S Tanenbaum, through to MINIX (Mini-Unix), which was released to the academic world in conjunction with the aforementioned book.
But it wasn't until 1991 that a young Finnish student called Linus Torvalds would combine all he had learnt from the those landmark systems into a kernel that would take the world by storm.
There are many legends that tell of the start of Linux, one of which is: Linus, while playing around in MINIX, piped data to his hard drive instead of his modem and wiped out the MINIX partitions he had created, thus leading to his frustration at the limits of the OS and his decision to create his own.
Another version has it that he wrote the kernel to gain better functionality of the new Intel 386 machine he was using. Another, still, says that he was barred from further improving MINIX, and so went on to develop his own.
Whatever the real story is, he created a free terminal emulator that was based on MINIX, which was based on Unix and would eventually become the workings for an operating system kernel. On 25 August, 1991, Linus posted his now famous message on the MINIX Newsgroup.
After that, FTP servers around the world became a-buzz with versions of Linux (originally named Freax), which grew at an astounding rate due to the number of contributors involved.
Version 0.01 of Linux is a far cry from what's available these days, but if you want to get your hands dirty, point your browsers to here and download the 71KB kernel in all its glory, along with the release notes from here .
Unfortunately, we can't stay in 1991. Needless to say, though, Linux evolved into a fully-blown OS, with the Manchester Computing Centre creating one of the first distributions that used a combined boot/ root disk, named MCC Interim Linux.
1992 to 1994
The growth of the desktop founders
SLS: the Softlanding Linux System. Nice name, but buggy as heck
Not much of a time jump, but between 1992 and 1994 we saw the rise of the most influential founders of the modern Linux desktop: Slackware, Red Hat and Debian, along with the Linux kernel growing to become 0.95 - the first to be capable of running the X Window System.
Slackware had something of a rocky start, although one of the first systems to adopt the 'new' Linux kernel at that time, Slackware started life as SLS, the Softlanding Linux System, as founded by Peter MacDonald in 1992.
SLS was quite far ahead of its time, as it was the first Linux distribution to contain not only the 0.99 Linux kernel, but also the TCP/IP stack and the X Window System. However, SLS was a buggy beast at best, and it wasn't long before it was superseded by Patrick Volkerding's Slackware, which is the longest-running Linux distro.
SLS did more than just spawn Slackware. Due to the frustrations of its buggy interface, another user found the motivation to go it alone and create a new branch of the Linux distribution. In 1993, Ian Murdock went forth and gave birth to a system called The Debian Linux Release, which is allegedly named after his then girlfriend Debra Lynn and himself.
As Slackware evolved, companies sprung to life that supported the software. One that appeared in 1994 was the Software und System-Entwicklung, or as it was more commonly known, S.U.S.E Linux.
An early Red Hat desktop. Not much has changed, really
Another distro that saw the light of day, on 3 November, 1994, was called Red Hat Commercial Linux, created by Marc Ewing, and named after the coloured hat he wore whilst at University.
On 14 March, 1994, Linux 1.0.0 was launched with 176,250 lines of code. Thus was the start of something wonderful.
1995 to 1999
The arrival of Gnome and KDE
Corel Linux (image courtesy of Distrowatch): man this was a bad distro
We take quite a leap in this next section, as the next five years saw some of the greatest Linux distributions arise from the 'big three', along with some very notable off-shoots of the Linux family tree, and including the infamous penguin attack of 1996. All this Linux history happening amid the dot com boom - incredible.
Jurix Linux was an interesting distro that was notable for a number of reasons: it was allegedly the first distro to include a scriptable installer, allowing an admin install to copy the installation process across similar machines. It was one of the first to fully support bootp and NFS, and one of the first Linux systems intended to use EXT2.
But what really made Jurix an important milestone in Linux history was the fact that it was the base system used for creating the SUSE Linux that we use today.
The Red Hat-based branch of Linux OSs were a fertile bunch during this five-year stretch. Notable releases such as Caldera, Mandrake, TurboLinux, Yellow Dog and Red Flag all began life from the sudden big bang of the ever-evolving Linux kernel, which was now, from 1995 to 1999, in versions 1.2.0 to 2.2.
In fact, version 2.0, launched in 1996, saw something like 41 releases in the series. It was this fast turn-around of the kernel, and the addition of some very important features that solidified the Linux operating system as the server OS of choice for IT professionals the world over.
Version 2.0, for instance, had features such as SMP support and better memory management, and could run on more types of processor. Version 2.2 heralded an improvement of SMP, support for the PowerPC architecture and a readonly capability for NTFS.
While on holiday in Australia, Linus visited a zoo, where he was bitten by a ferocious penguin. He was then infected with penguinitis, which makes the victim lay awake at night dreaming of penguins and becoming very fond of them - his words, not ours!
Anyway, Linus liked penguins - they are "goofy and fun", as he commented. As for the name Tux, again according to internet fable, this is from (T)orvalds (U)ni(X). So now you know.
Debian-based systems, although not as active as their Red Hat counterparts, began to grow, and favoured a more user-friendly server room approach to their distros. Being more desktop-orientated, Debian-based distros were often displayed on the front of the popular magazines at the time, showing off such notable entries as: Libranet, Storm, Finnix and Corel Linux.
Gnome 1 on Red Hat, bless its cotton socks
Of course, the most notable happening during these five years was the birth of KDE and Gnome. KDE (Kool Desktop Environment) was founded in 1996 by Matthias Ettrich, a student at the University of Tübingen, who proposed not just a set of working applications, but also an entire desktop environment for them to work in. No longer did users have to fiddle around in CDE or X11-based environments, now we had Qt!
By 1998, KDE version 1.0 was open to the world, and the first distro to use it was Mandrake. By 2000, version 2.0 was out and featured a greatly improved system, with Konqueror, KOffice and KIO networking.
Miguel de Icaza and Federico Mena announced the development of a new desktop environment and accompanying applications, based on GTK+. This new desktop environment was called Gnome.
Interestingly, according to internet folklore, the first Linux OS to feature Gnome was Red Hat. Gnome fast became an acceptable desktop environment, being quick, malleable and very friendly for the average user, and by May 2000 Gnome 1.2 Bongo was released.
Oracle and Sun announced official support for Linux versions, as the OS became increasingly popular, and more system admins started to adopt it in their server rooms.
2000 to 2005
The birth of live distros
Ubuntu 4.10, complete with Warty Warthogs and all that jazz
The next five years saw an incredible surge of Linux-powered computers hitting the media, with further improvements to the kernel, heaps of new applications and the appearance of the first live distro.
Knoppix, a friendly Debian-based distro developed by Klaus Knopper, was also one of the most popular of its time. It was noteworthy for many reasons, but the main one was the fact that it could boot directly from the CD!
True, this is something we take for granted these days, but Knoppix 1.4, as released on 30 September, 2000, could be inserted into any PC and booted into a fully-working Linux, with access to a massive range of hardware and the ability to communicate and connect automatically to almost any network available at that time.
Knoppix set the bar for other Linux distros to follow, and from its humble beginnings it spawned quite the family tree of Knoppix-based distros, many of which are still with us today.
With all these pre-built distros now becoming the flavour of the month, and starting to look vaguely like Microsoft's offerings, a project was started to help get Linux users back in touch with what makes Linux work.
Linux From Scratch (LFS) was conceived, along with a book by Gerard Beekmans, which gave users instructions on how to build their own Linux system from source.
Linux is freedom, and it must be allowed to grow, but to ensure the protection and the advancement of Linux a group must be formed to help keep Linux independent. So, in 2000 the Linux Foundation was formed to sponsor the work of Linus and the developing community, in making and improving Linux, but also to defend it and keep it within the core values of freedom, collaboration and education - a bit like the Justice League, but without capes.
A pivotal moment in the Linux kernel came with version 2.4, released on 4 January. Version 2.4 contained support for USB, PC Cards, ISA Plug and Play, and went on to add Bluetooth, RAID and EXT3. In fact, 2.4.x was the longest-supported kernel, ending with 2.4.37.11 in 2011, and went to show just how versatile and powerful the Linux kernel had become from the early days of 1.0.
Red Hat, having now enjoyed some time on the stock market, decided that although it made some money via the support of its free Red Hat Linux OS, the time had come to adopt a more business-like and commercial approach.
From this came a two-way split - Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 was born, with kernel 2.4.9, more stability and long-term support for the enterprise user, and the Fedora Core for the community distribution.
With RHEL being open source, Red Hat makes the source code available freely on its FTP servers, which several groups downloaded and compiled to their own distros. CentOS, Oracle Linux, CERN and Scientific Linux are notable examples of such distros - all the goodness of a well-built distro, but without access to the mighty Hat's expert knowledge and software.
December of 2002 saw the release of a notable distro, CRUX. With special emphasis on the 'keep it simple' theme that had become popular during this time, CRUX was extremely lightweight and focused on the developer as opposed to the end user.
In a time when Linux distros were starting to grow exponentially, and vied for the position as the replacement for Windows, CRUX took a different look and thinned itself down to the bone, becoming a welcomed minimalist distro.
What's notable about CRUX, though, is the fact that it was the inspiration and base for Arch Linux.
With kernel 2.4 doing so well, version 2.6 was announced on 18 December. With it came support for PAE, new CPUs, improved 64-bit support, 16TB filesystem sizes, EXT4 and more.
As the Linux distro was now approaching an almost Zen-like harmony with user and PC, it was still deemed as being distant to those users who preferred the flavourings of Microsoft. Therefore, a new philosophy was needed - something that would make Linux more human, and show more humanity, something Ubuntu.
Based on Debian, Ubuntu's aim was to create an easy-to-use Linux desktop that could be updated to include the latest offerings by the end user with very little experience in Linux. With the release of Ubuntu 4.10, the Warty Warthog, on 20 October, 2004 this dream was realised.
2006 to 2012
The rise and fall of Ubuntu
Linux Mint
And so, we approach the present day. Some things have started to stabilise, but we've also seen an explosion in the number of distros. Despite the onslaught, the old stalwarts have remained strong.
Of the many differing distros that were launched from 2006 onwards, one has become the fourth most-used operating system in the world, and is regarded as the most popular Linux, according to various sources.
Linux Mint 1.0, Ada, was released in 2006 with a heady mixture of FOSS and proprietary software. This 'works-out-of-the-box' Linux distro briefly followed the Ubuntu base and later the Debian base as well.
Linux Mint has adapted itself to embrace, and offer, the newest technologies while still keeping an ear to the ground and listening to its users, hence the massive support for this great distro.
KDE4 was released, and was met with some criticism due to the lack of stability, with Linus himself stating that KDE 4.0 was a "break everything" and "halfbaked" release. However, users began to enjoy the Plasma desktop, and the cutting-edge look and feel, so that by the time KDE 4.2 was released in 2009, everyone had forgotten about the terrible experience they had previously. What a fickle bunch we are.
23 September saw the release of one of the most popular Linux-based operating systems ever, although 90% of its users have no idea that it's Linux-based at all. That OS is Android.
Version 1.0 was launched with the HTC Dream and could do everything you'd expect from a modern smartphone, but it was buggy. Version 1.1 fixed most of the bugs, but it wasn't until version 1.5 Cupcake that Android really started to get interesting and pave the way for smartphones the world over.
Ubuntu had gone from strength to strength during this time. It was regularly at the top of the Linux charts, it had a huge fanbase and it was easy to use.
Then, one sunny April day, the 14th release of Ubuntu came about, but with a slightly different look: Unity. Apart from KDE4 and Gnome 3, never has such venom been spat at a desktop interface as with Unity.
It's safe to say that nearly everyone hated it, and they still do. Ubuntu fell from favour and is still struggling to keep up, but it has stuck by its guns and still supports Unity. Will it eventually become the final nail in the Ubuntu coffin?
After some years with the 2.6.x kernel, version 3.0 was finally released with the following changes: "NOTHING. Absolutely nothing," as said by Linus. Indeed, due to the kernel numbers getting too high, and the 2.6.* notation getting out of hand, Linus decided that a new number was called for. Version 3.0, there you have it.
After the debacle that was KDE4 some years earlier, you'd think that those who created desktop environments would have learnt what the public liked. This obviously hadn't reached the ears of the Gnome team, who in April of this year launched Gnome 3.0.
Like lemmings, users of Linux ran towards the cliff and threw themselves off in favour of KDE, or earlier versions of Gnome, such was its effect on the Linux community. The damage was done, and Gnome is still paying for it, with the likes of Linux Mint offering users an alternative desktop environment, in the form of MATE and Cinnamon.
The future
Unfortunately we've reached the end of our brief timeline, although we've seen some classic retro Linux distros, and how it all began.
What does the future hold? Who knows, our lack of ability to foretell the future is obvious, as we're still only journalists and not mega-rich layabouts, but keep watching this space and in another 20 years' time, we may have a look at the history of Linux from 2012 to 2032.

Google introduce advanced nan futuristic sunglasses. Glasses are currently referred to as Project Glass brings abi computing ladies were simply stunning.
Controlled by voice, Google goggles can be used to perform an online search, email and navigation directions. Even can also be used for video chat.
Glasses based augmented reality technology can display a variety of information such as indicating where the user's location and weather conditions. Users can also locate other users with the Google Latitude system.
Reported by DailyMail and quoted on Thursday (05/04/2012), these glasses seem to wear the Android operating system. Icons and menu appearance seemed familiar with the green robot OS. Glass Project created by the team at the lab, dubbed Google Google X.
"Our group of Google X launch Project Glass to make this kind of technology, something that helps you explore and share your world," says Google.
"We share this information now because we wanted to start a conversation and learn from your valuable input. So we took some photos to show what kind of possibilities this technology and video to demonstrate it," added Google.
There is no information when the glasses are ready for the market. Rumors say Glass Project will be sold around the end of 2012.

With the release of Windows 8, Windows Phone 8 is also launched.We look back at what the critics had to say so far: "Start Screen of Windows Phone 8 may be the best of all mobile phones .." says Gizmodo, Windows Phone 8 is a "great cell phone, crazy, incredible" said the other, while Metro commented "Windows Phone 8 will match the greatness of Android". No doubt we have to wait for the full release to vote.These are moments that we think is most fun when the Micosoft product launch:
This is Windows 8 in a cell phone Windows Phone 8 using the same technology with Windows 8.It makes the phone software is almost identical to the Windows PC and allows developers to make the same game for Windows Phone and Windows 8.The only difference between Windows 8 and Windows Phone is its size. The cell phone is faster and more powerful Windows Phone 8 handsets equipped with dual / quad-core (same technology you would find on the Samsung Galaxy S3, iPhone 4S).This means that Windows Phone will operate much faster than ever before. The screen is larger and sharper The screen is embedded in Windows Phone 8 is enhanced - this will end phones have the screen with 720p high definition.There are also two new screen resolution for sharper images, clear: 1280x765 and 1280x720
Handset with new coverage The first wave of Windows Phone 8 devices to be manufactured by the manufacturer of the phone.We will see other new phones from Samsung, Nokia, HTC, and Huawei. You can add storage For the first time your Windows Phones equipped with additional removeable MicroSD slot.The extra space can be used for storing photos, music, videos, and install the application. The ability to share the better You can easily "touch and send" video, music, photos, documents, and files from your phone to other Windows devices.It's all thanks to a new technology called smart NFC (near field communication) - you'll often hear about NFC from now on.
Start Screen that is designed Birthday "The most sexy" in Windows Phone 8 is a redesign of the Start Screen.What also seems just like with Windows 8. Instead of using a two-part look wide as in Windows Phone 7, its users will benefit from the three-part look wider.You will be able to determine the size of each of the three parts, made into two broad, standardized view of medium size and small. Windows Phone 8 also displays more colors, so you can customize your mobile phone display. Internet Explorer 10 Navigating the internet is now two times faster than the Windows Phone that has been circulating today. Windows Phone 8 SmartScreen filter using anti-phishing (theft of data) that can be found in your Windows 8 computer.The filter would block many sites and stop you downloading malicious files that could damage the performance of your mobile phone (great application). Easy Updates Update Windows Phone 8 will run easily through the wireless network, so you no longer need to connect your phone to a computer to update it again.Microsoft also will provide updated application supporting at least 18 months after the phone was launched. You will be able to make payments using the Wallet app in Windows Phone 8
Elk Cloner declared as one of the micro-computer virus that has spread out of scope pembuatanya place.
Created in 1982 by a high school student who was 15 years old.He named Rich Skrenta.Viruses that he made, when it was intended for the Apple II computer system.
At that Skrenta no longer trusted by my garden.It was caused by the behavior that illegally distribute games and software, he often uses floppy disks to turn off the computer or to display the mocking words on the screen.Finally Skrenta also devised a method to do it without a floppy disk so that it is not suspected.
During the winter break at Mt.Lebanon High School, Pennsylvania, USA, Skrenta find how to display a message on the computer automatically.And finally he found what today is referred to as a boot sector virus, and began to spread among the friends of the school as well as in a computer club.
Obtained from sources that the virus spread quickly and successfully infect floppy disks people he knew, including math teacher.Many troublesome virus infected victims.Can imagine how troublesome because when itubelum no single antivirus.Elk Cloner virus can only be removed manually with intricate steps.
Elk Cloner spread by infecting the Apple II operating system with a boot sector virus techniques.This means that if we boot the computer using a floppy disk that had been infected with the virus will be automatically copied to memory.And if there is a clean floppy disk inserted into the computer the virus will copy itself to the floppy it.
Infected computer will display a screen when booting into the poem 50.
Quote:
Here is the poem:
Elk Cloner: The program with a personality
It will get on all your disks
It will infiltrate your chips
Yes it's Cloner!
It will stick to you like glue
It will modify RAM too
Send in the Cloner!
In conclusion, the Elk Cloner did not make a change just damage system on a floppy containing the Apple DOS.
Currently, Skrenta so Blekko CEO Inc., an Internet search engine
