Our ever-improving technology means that what seemed impossible yesterday is ordinary today. Mobile working is a classic example: even a few years ago, the idea of carrying a fully-fledged mobile workstation in a laptop bag or getting broadband speeds from a mobile modem was hopelessly futuristic. Now, though, technology enables us to work from anywhere – but while it solves many problems it also introduces new challenges. So what kit, add-ons and apps will make you a happy traveller? Let’s find out.
The right laptop
There’s never been a wider choice of laptops for travelling, from ultra-portable netbooks and tablets to fully-featured, ultra-thin notebooks and desktop-class mobile workstations.
The choice of mobile machine depends on two things: the kind of work you’ll be doing, and where you’re likely to be doing it. Netbooks are great for writing in cramped conditions such as aeroplane seats, but you wouldn’t want to try rendering 3D on one; tablets are great for sketching and reading but horrible to type on for long periods without external keyboards; and mobile workstations deliver extraordinary power but aren’t particularly well suited for Ryanair flights.
Google has lifted the lid on its long-rumoured, personalised magazine app for Android and iOS.
Google Currents will go head-to-head with the popular Flipboard app for iPhone and iPad by bringing in feeds from your favourite online news sources and Google+ feed.
Just like Flipboard, the free app, which is US-only release at present, will reformat articles and present the entire package in a neat-looking digital magazine.
The app had been rumoured for some time now, with the original name for the project thought to be Google Propeller.
This coupled with the fact, half the networks in the UK (that I have seen) have no security on them, you can easily be connected 24/7 no matter what your location haha.
The US is the PREMIERE market for everything. That means that if shit is going to happen, shit happens there first. (Mostly.) Then that shit gets pushed out to the rest of the world.
Everyone copies the US. The US has some of the worst legislation in the world that allows corporate psychopathy to run rampant and rape indiscriminately.
Carbon copy that everywhere else... The world is a mess. Thank you Uncle Sam.-Renegade (December 09, 2011, 06:28 AM)

Every Windows product has a lifecycle. The lifecycle begins when a product is released and ends when it's no longer supported or sold. Knowing key dates in this lifecycle helps you make informed decisions about when to upgrade or make other changes to your software. Here are the rights and limits of the Windows lifecycle.
End of sales
End of sales refers to the date when a particular version of Windows is no longer shipped to retailers or Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). Examples of OEMS are Dell and Toshiba—PC manufacturers who often preinstall Windows software. When a version of Windows reaches its end of sales date, it's a good time to think about upgrading...
Windows Downgrade Rights
To use prior versions of Windows software on PCs installed with newer versions, it is possible for consumers to obtain a license for Downgrade Rights. The following table compares Volume Licensing Downgrade Rights with those provided under OEM and FPP licenses...
