Eat your heart out OLPC, it is a noble idea but I hate to admit that the design sucks, probably they design it that way so that there would be no second hand value. Well, anyway Intel and Asustek just announce a low-cost laptop that is small, portable, and light, it doesn’t spot any real processing power that will blow your brain away but it does have some really cool features.

    Intel countersues Transmeta

    Transmeta was the talk of the town 7 years ago when they launch their Crusor Processor chip, believed to be the future of processor where heat is not an issue. Well, they did manage to solve heating problem long time ago and address the issue well before intel did and realize that heating is stopping them from producing faster processor.

    Now, intel is counter suing Transmeta claming that it is Transmeta that infringed intel’s technology, reminds me of the Apple vs Creative, if you can’t beat them, sue them.
