Tech Reviews for May 24, 2012

Read today how the latest big Canadian Lottery winner, $50,000,000.00, is planning to continue working.  Crazy!

I have to admit that, yes I would want to keep busy. but I would so be taking at least a year off to travel the world with those who meant the most to me.  With that much money you could take each person, who meant something to you, somewhere that meant something to them.

There I go daydreaming again!

HIGHLIGHT REVIEW

Toshiba is one of those manufacturers that have had an Ultrabook in their portfolio for quite some time. The Z830 is also the lightest of all Ultrabooks. It’s even lighter than Apples 13 inch MacBook Air. We’re really curious if the Z830 is a good device or if Toshiba tried to save too much weight.
