Friday, the InetDaemon.Com website crashed. HTTP 500 errors all over the place and no WordPress, just blank error pages. Oh, NO! What do I do!?!
Found an Adobe demo video on YouTube of the HP Slate:
The HP slate is Windows 7 based, as Steve Ballmer demonstrated at CES. The HP Slate Ballmer demonstrated appears to have the Kindle software for Windows installed. The HP Slate also runs Adobe Air and Flash, the iPad does not, which means the iPad can’t display the vast majority of video content on the Internet. If you’re using the iPad, you won’t be able to view the embedded video in this page. The Adobe demo video also demonstrates that the HP Slate surface is multi-touch–you can use gestures. The HP Slate has multitasking capability which the iPad lacks.
For now, the Slate has yet to be released, or have a release date announced, so there aren’t any available for purchase.. yet. But they look cool. The iPad is slated for release April 3rd.
Gee, I really have lived long enough for those Star Trek digital pads to become a reality.
updating the blog–Cisco’s new router and the HP Slate computer. https://www.inetdaemon.com/
Cisco announced their new CRS-3 router today. CRS stands for “Carrier Router System” and the new router, if it lives up to Cisco’s claims (and they usually d0, somehow), can forward 322 Terabits per second which is triple that of the CRS-1 at 92 Tbps. This is another in the line of ‘big fast routers’ used by telecommunications carriers that carry the bulk of the Internet traffic. These are the ‘backbone’ providers such as AT&T, Verizon, Sprint etc.
