Netbooks are still kicking!

Hp denies that netbooks are dead, and that Tablets are the future. Oh no, they are still sticking to netbooks like this one:

What is a netbook?
If you don't know, take some time finding out! It might be your next best portable technology gadget... 
A netbook, is like a notebook (laptop) just smaller! 
Remember:  Notebooks is full computer that run windows or linux fully. They are just simply slower than notebooks and desktops, but boy are they small and handy tools...

Hp admits that tablets is taking the market, but keeps saying that notebooks are better. 
I agree, tablet keyboards is not easy to type with, it doesn't have the same applications as your desktop PC or MAC and it isn't as easy to quickly update a blog or type a document. 

although't from my piont of view, netbooks are slower, they get things done without hassel!

HP’s Pavilion dm1z is hardly a netbook that looks like it is swinging for the fences. It is modest and unassuming, a cleaned-up version of so many netbooks from years gone by. It aims to be your miniature workhorse companion and tries to look good while it’s along for the ride.
Performance is solid compared to other netbooks: AMD’s E-350 runs rings around the Atom, boosting performance about 50 percent over Atom-books (although many Atom netbooks fail to complete most benchmark tests altogether), and the improved graphics, while they won’t make the Pavilion your choice for a Portal 2 marathon, can at least get you along the Oregon Trail with aplomb.

That is a kick in tablet's nuts! Just as fast and twice as small. It looks good and funky, it's fast, it's small, it's way better than tablets and it easier to use and type with. Looks like a good deal to me!

What do you think? Netbook or Tablet?

Hackers have broken into Citibank’s computers!


Hackers have broken into Citibank’s computers, stealing names, account numbers and contact information of customers, the bank said in a statement.
Citibank discovered a data breach in early May, according to theFinancial Times, but did not disclose the details about the hack.
In a statement to the AP, Citigroup says it has taken measures to prevent these types of attacks and that it is informing affected customers about the incident. The hack affected about 1% of the company’s 21 million customers.
The Citibank hack follows several other high-profile attacks in recent months. Most infamously, a series of hacking attacks on Sony took down the company’s PlayStation Network for about a month, and hundreds of thousands of user profiles containing personal information were exposed.
