Saving space seems to be all the rage these days, thanks to the miniaturization of devices and machines around us. Take a look at your cellphone – it probably packs in a much faster processor compared to your desktop a few years back, right? The desktop PC has also quietly undergone its own revolution, with nettops making more and more of a presence (or nuisance, depending on how you look at it) while all-in-one PCs are also catching up in popularity simply because most of them are aesthetically pleasing while packing enough punch to deliver the processing power required for basic computing tasks such as surfing, checking e-mail as well as the occasional spot of casual gaming. The latest all-in-one PC to hit the market would be the Wind Top AE2220 from MSI, where it is now available Stateside as MSI’s flagship model in this department. The AE2220 extends the award-winning Wind Top line with new levels of performance, usability, energy-efficiency, and functionality in an affordable, stylish and eco-friendly design for today’s PC-centric families. To know more about the AE2220, head on after the jump.

Being stuck in a office isn’t most peoples idea of fun, but having a few toys of office gadgets around can help alleviate the monotony.

November 10th, 2009 by Edwin in Office Gadgets, PC Gadgets
Back in the days, having a firewall was a decent option if you wanted to secure your network against incoming attacks from the outside, but these days not just any firewall will do. Wiresoft, being a leading provider of affordable, high performance network security products for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), has just unveiled Firegate, where it is touted to be the industry’s foremost “unbreakable” firewall delivering enterprise-level security plus disaster recovery without breaking the bank – perfect for such an economic climate. Just to get a better impression of how “steady” and reliable it is, the Firegate’s core technology platform has never been penetrated in either laboratory or market conditions to date. In order to underline its robustness and security, Wiresoft has issued a challenge, offering up to $24,000 in prize money to anyone who can hack Firegate within 24 hours.
Magnetic Golf
November 9th, 2009 by Edwin in Office Gadgets, Toys
So the weather outside is not what you envisioned for you to shoot a few rounds of golf – what do you do then? Fret not, you can still enjoy your golf game via Magnetic Golf, where you can always kill some time at the office with this £11.99 toy.
Besides your little magnetic golfer himself (apparently there’s no female version of him – that’s not very representative, now is it?), you’ve got a green with a moveable hole, a bunker, a water hazard and some trees to set up your own personalised fairway. It’s not point and flick game either, just a fractional increase or decrease in swing power can drastically alter the course of a hole, making it something of a fine art. With a bit of practice you can perform chip shots, tee shots and some pretty tricky putts and, because it’s all magnetised, you’ve got at least some chance of getting a hole-in-one.
Magnetic Golf could be a physical version of a time killer, and at least you don’t have to fool around with Excel desktop backgrounds in order to fool your boss – be bold enough to tell them you’re taking five in order to get a better grasp on the future money-spinning ideas for the company.
Planon DocuPen Xtreme X-Series line unveiled
November 6th, 2009 by Edwin in Electronic Gadgets, Office Gadgets
Planon is back, better than ever with their new DocuPen Xtreme X-Series line of scanning pens that will come in the form of the X05, X10 and X50, where any one of the three will bring portable scanning power to the next level of efficiency. Capable of supporting image resolutions of up to 600 dpi (up to 1,200 dpi for the X50), all three of them will be powered by a 200MHz internal processor, which is superior to previous scanning pen processors that will not go beyond the 60MHz mark. At 200MHz, this makes the DocuPen X-Series the fastest line of pocket-sized scanners on the market to date.
The Vertical Bed lets you literally sleep standing up
November 5th, 2009 by Mark R in Conceptual Gadgets, Office Gadgets
Imagine walking the streets of New York City and seeing this guy. If you were a true New Yorker, you would probably just walk on by, assuming you even noticed him in the first place.
As an “out-of-towner”, I probably would just assume that this man had some disability that required him to wear metal braces on his neck and…backside, and would probably not ask him about it.
Actually, this man is asleep. That’s right, he is on the Vertical Bed, and all those braces are designed to attach to an ordinary subway grating. This very tired chap tried it out in NYC, and he actually got forty good minutes of shut-eye.
LED Table Lamp plugs into phone jack
November 5th, 2009 by Ally in Home Gadgets, Office Gadgets
Although the first thing most people notice is the nauseatingly pink color of this lamp, the lamp does actually have plenty to offer. I’m one that dislikes the idea of being stuck completely in the dark whenever the power goes out and it actually happens quite a bit. This lamp doesn’t use power in the same way that your average lamp would. Instead, it plugs into your phone jack.
Timeclock and door lock use facial recognition
November 3rd, 2009 by Mark R in Cool Clocks, Electronic Gadgets, Office Gadgets
I once worked at a place that required me to have an ID card. I had to swipe it just to prove that I had showed up to work, and I couldn’t even get through the front door without it. If I forgot my ID card, it was a big hassle to explain myself to human resources, not to mention the waiting for someone to open the door for me.
This is just one of the reasons why I don’t work for “the man”. I can just see “the man” of the future implementing mandatory Face Detecting Time Attendance System and Access Door Lock (CVJB-G107) at the workplace.
