Axiotron Modbook D4

DAY 4 Inked Up, Linked In

I've always had a keyboard, so there has never been a need to use the Ink Utility that comes with the Mac OS, but since using the modbook - I realize that there is a very good use for it. There are some limitations to the application, but it adds a lot of functionality to the modbook which otherwise only has a floating software keyboard.

Axiotron Modbook D2

DAY 2 Stories of 'books gone 'bad

No Joke... I've been around computers for a while, so I know that there are quirks, beeps and bumps in every hardware device, but it's always nice when there's an easy, accessible button to correct error when they go wrong. Especially when the magic button isn't the "power button"

Axiotron Modbook D1

DAY 1 with no keyboard, working with the tablet only

I'm a Mac fanboy. I'm a tablet/stylus user. I hardly ever touch my mouse at all. So when I heard about the Axiotron Modbook - a macbook with a Wacom face, I had to check it out. On the day it arrived, it appeared to be everything I hoped for. In the following days, I'd take notes and try to break out of my standard workflow shell.

Asus Eee PC

micro notebook computer with 7-inch screen, 4GB Flash memory disk space

On one of the legs of a recent trip that criscrossed Australia four times (that`s 12,000 kilometres in total), I was attempting to type a story on my 15-inch Acer Ferrari laptop. I prefer the aisle seats but on this trip however, the person in the middle seat was a tad larger than normal and try as I might, I could not get in a position where my left hand could type comfortably, so I gave up, vowing that at the earliest opportunity, I would get myself a "baby" 12-inch laptop.

Systemax Endeavor Workstation

PC company's entry into the workstation market

Systemax is a manufacturer of solid PCs and notebook computers that can be purchased largely online and via mail order at Systemaxpc.com. When I first heard that the company was going to introduce a creative workstation, I really panned the idea, because, one, the market for creative workstations is really small when compared to its main notebook and desktop PC business, and two, so many companies have entered and exited the market.
