Dell Introduces Art Edition For Studio Range

Dell has launched five Special Art Edition designs for the Dell Studio 15 and 17 laptops, created by urban artist Mike Ming.

The designs for the Dell Studio 15 and 17 laptops include “Red Swirl,” “Seaweed,” “Sunburst,” “Bunch O Surfers” and “Sea Sky.” Each piece of artwork is brought to life through Dell’s manufacturing technique, which enables every color and individual brushstroke to be permanently “tattooed” on the laptop’s cover. The Special Art Edition Dell Studio laptops are available for order today on www.dell.co.in, starting at Rs. 59,800 for the Dell Studio 15.

Brooklyn-based artist Mike Ming (born Michael Miyahira) blends popular culture, motion and emotion to communicate his visual world. According to Ming, “The technology behind creating Dell’s Art House series of laptops allows me to share my visual creations with people who are inspired by art and who want to express their own individually unique sense of style.”

“It’s exciting and fun discovering new artists around the world who can create emotional ties, uniqueness and personalization with individuals’ personal technology,” said Girish Mehta, Director of Consumer Marketing, Dell India. “The Special Art Edition designs reflect our customers’ desires to add another level of individuality to everyday life.”

India Developing $10 Laptop

After displaying its prowess in developing the world’s cheapest car, India is on track to rolling out the world’s cheapest laptop computer that could cost as low as $10, a top official said in New Delhi Tuesday.
Minister of State for Human Resource Development D. Purandeswari said research was being conducted to develop the laptop, especially for use by students, which will cost all of $10.
“Research in this direction is being already carried out at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras,” she told the e-India annual summit on information and communication technologies.
The laptop, when produced, will prove to be a breakthrough device that could solve the problems of low computer literacy and e-learning not only in India, but also the world over, she added.
Earlier this year, India’s Tata Group had unveiled the “Nano” that was touted as the world’s cheapest car costing all of $2,500 and the announcement had grabbed global headlines.
The cheapest laptop available today is at least 10 times costlier. The “XO” sold by the Massachusetts-based non-government organization ‘One Laptop Per Child Foundation’ sells for $188.
The foundation, started by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) alumnus Nicholas Negroponte, aims to supply the low cost machines to the governments of developing countries for them to source it to school children.
But the Indian government rejected the offer in 2006, calling it an experimental model.
“India must not allow itself to be used for experimentation with children in this area,” the human resource ministry had stated then.
However the project was taken up by the Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group to be implemented as a pilot in Maharashtra’s Khairat village.
Under this initiative, Reliance Communications will provide net connectivity, backbone, logistics, and support to the OLPC initiative. “The initiative aims at covering over 25,000 towns, and 6,00,000 villages in the country by 2008.”

Kingston DataTraveler BlackBox Now Available in India

Kingston Technology Company has announced the release of its first Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS)-validated USB Flash drive, the DataTraveler BlackBox, available in 2GB, 4GB and 8GB capacities. Gaining FIPS 140-2 certification requires a validation process that meets federal requirements set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and the Communications Security Establishment of the Government of Canada. This is critical because many governmental agencies in the United States and Canada mandate that sensitive “data at rest” (i.e., all information not in the network) must be encrypted with the FIPS 140-2 standard.

“We are very excited that our DataTraveler BlackBox met all federal requirements established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST),” said Nitin Malhotra, Kingston Country Manager, India. “This certification, along with other enhanced security features, makes the DT BlackBox an ideal way to store and transport confidential documents with the utmost confidence that the data is secure.”

The FIPS Level 2 standard requires the DT BlackBox to run a power-on self test which verifies that the encryption architecture is functioning each time it is plugged into a USB port. Beyond the NIST certification, the DataTraveler BlackBox features 256-bit hardware-based AES encryption via a dedicated processor which automatically encrypts and decrypts data on the fly. The drive automatically locks down after ten consecutive failed password attempts, thus helping to prevent unauthorized access if the drive is lost, stolen or misplaced. 
The Kingston DataTraveler BlackBox is available for Rs. 4,999 (2GB), Rs. 6,999 (4GB) and Rs. 11,199 (8GB).

Transcend Introduces 64 GB 2.5-inch SSD

Transcend has introduced a new 64 GB high speed SLC 2.5-inch Solid State Disk (SSD).

Austin Huang, Regional Head – Sales, SAARC and APAC, Transcend, said, “Transcend’s 2.5″ SSD can be used in most notebook computers and mainstream PCs just like a regular hard drive. When it comes to performance, Transcend’s new SLC flash memory-equipped 64GB SSD offers data transfer rates that greatly surpass even the fastest 2.5″ hard drives, delivering data read/write speeds of up to 119MB and 64MB per second, respectively. With these high-speed transfer rates and virtually non-existent (less than 0.1ms) latency, Transcend’s SSD accelerates computer boot-up times, makes games and applications open faster and run more smoothly, and improves overall system responsiveness.”
Transcend’s Solid State Disk’s integrated ECC (Error Correction Code) ensures reliable data transfer and increases system integrity. Its built-in wear leveling technology also guarantees ultra-long storage lifespan and data-retention durability for prolonged use. With no moving parts, SSDs run cool, generate no noise, and require very little power for operation.
Transcend’s 2.5″ SSDs are available in capacities ranging from 8 GB to 64 GB in both SATA and IDE versions. It supports up to Ultra DMA Mode 4 and is compatible with devices and O/S that support the IDE standard.
The SSD costs Rs. 33,000 and comes with a 2-year warranty.
