There is the NComputing technology using virtual computing integrated into device can share one single PC into multi user with different monitor. But wait, there are also integrated device of NComputing into monitor, wow that’s will cutting budget also, that’s the idea to lower total cost of ownership.

LG and NComputing work together to bring this network monitor into reality, i see it NComputing device embedded into LG monitor, so we don’t need to buy separately NComputing device and monitor, just use LG network monitor we got both NComputing and LCD monitor, impressif, this is what i call marketing breakthrough, also technology breakthrough.

Sure they don’t pay me to write this, but i am technology guy who love technology which is reach on the budget and massively can adapted by many people, they gain profit and gain solve the problem without breaking their bank. Also it will support green computing. Congrate!

LG Network Diagram using NComputing

LG Network Monitor deliver technology of NComputing into business today, to answer green computing issues and to answer idle powerfull processor. Well, i like this idea, embedding NComputing into LCD monitor, and selling with low price. When the first i see the demo, i am not thinking that inside of the LG monitor is NComputing device, but after i see the device of NComputing now i realize, LG embeded NComputing into their LCD monitor to low cut the budget of the NComputing device it self with LCD monitor, so user gain save budget. This is also the idea and challenge to all hardware manufacture to read this trend to fullfill consumer with low cost budget.

After six month i found the internal DVD cannot read anymore, and it was only recognized CD ROM, and take a long time to recognized. Also the cooler fan so noisy, i think i need to replace and buy spare part of this laptop. But wait, there are any warranty spare part replacement for each laptop untill one year. Well, ok, i try to go to MSI Service Center to get replacement and check my laptop.

After MSI engineer checking, they replace the cpu cooler fan and internal DVD not more than in one hour, great, this is every customer expected to get fast replacement and support. After sales service support is very powerfull to make your customer loyal and think that they get full support for their purchased product. And then they will do repeat order if they satisfy with the product and also satisfy for after sales service support warranty.

Gesture method is the one introduced to gadget application, now it will embrace pc application and laptop application. Embarcadero’s Delphi 2010 introduced gesture programming in a minute. What in a minute ? How about hundred lines of code to write gesture application ? Well, sorry guys you don’t need to write hundred lines of code only transform your application into gesture environment or you call it ready gesture certificate.

With the release of Embarcader Delphi 2010, it will easy to create application which will support gesture interaction. Mr. Gordon Li from Embarcadero demonstrate how easy it is develop gesture application using Delphi 2010. Let say Embarcadero launch the release of Delphi 2010 in Jakarta on March 18, 2010 at Novotel Mangga Dua. I am enthusiast to see what will Delphi offer to developer after acquired by Embarcadero.

What i want to compare is the price, the easy access to the game without set online or connected desktop client.

Steampowered.com is massive collection of the game, you need to go online first to play the game, while steam provide offline mode, but mostly you cannot run steam then what happen ? you cannot play the game, hell, why steam bind these all game that we have purchased into steam API, this will prevent the buyer to play the game when steam is not available anymore.

Impulse from stardock.com also have big catalog, while impulse also provide desktop client games to download their catalog and purchase it, impulse allow us to play the game after purchase and we don’t need to run impulse to play the game, these is great, why we should prevent to play the game, we already buy it.

Direct2Drive.com, provide also many games catalog, some country restricted to by the game, but mostly can, it depends on their distribution content agreement with the publisher.

The Winner is : Impulse from stardock.com, they deliver the game without irritating customer and gamer to run impulse only to play the game that they have already bought.

Recommendation: If you do not want any trouble in the future, buy the game from the store that not binding Desktop Client Games to the game that you bought. The Desktop Client Games API will always asking the Desktop Client Games to run. The question is are they provide 100% no error from online connection.

Here is the proof of my screen captured, when their services not satisfied your gaming experience.

Bad implementation of Steampowered.com

Long Journey
While it is draft on HTML 5, the browser itself should update their capability to work with the device element, the potential side to access device through HTML is like a knife, it could be use as positif side and it could be use as negative impact. Before the element can work with the browser, there are long journey to implement and to accept this technology to all browser. True, adobe currently can control a webcam, but the adobe itself is the web application that still separated code from HTML. This could be the battle of HTML and Adobe, and vice versa, and when allowing HTML to access the device, browser should increase the security code to analyze the impact of black code to gain access through this device element.

Use Anchor

See the anchor direction to resize canvas

Actually, if we look at the Canvas Resize property of Adobe Fireworks, there are new size field to set width and height of the canvas. By setting and new width or height, then pressing OK button, actually we just mess up our design with the guides line.

By default, the center anchor is selected, indicating that changes to the size of the canvas are made on all sides. You need to do Click an Anchor button to specify which sides of the canvas Fireworks will add to or delete from, and click OK. There are 9 button of anchor direction, top-left with set direction to the right and to the bottom or set the x and y, left-bottom-right will resize only the bottom of the canvas and the graphic still intact at the top. There are an opposite of left-bottom-right, which is left-up-right will resize the top of the canvas. By using this method will ensure, you are not make your guides lines mess up and put you in the jeopardy by rearrange of the guide or moving all graphic to the right position again, it will save your time by taking care of anchor property. There are also the measure of width and height, by choosing between pixel, inches, and centimeters.
