Acer Ferrari One notebook

The Acer Ferrari One will be exclusive to the Taiwanese computer manufacturer only, where it is a full-featured 11.6″ notebook that relies on the same exquisite details and performance features celebrated by Scudetto Ferrari. As with any Ferrari, you can expect the Ferrari One notebook to merge both performance and extreme portability in a single device. It will run on VISION technology from AMD, offering users the ability to achieve a responsive, balanced multitasking performance thanks to the AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual-core processor with low-power CPU within. Graphically, you won’t find yourself wanting with the ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics for high-definition visual quality, while its 4GB DDR2 667MHz system memory ought to be enough to handle even demanding applications without missing a beat. Each purchase of the Acer Ferrari One notebook will come with Windows 7 Home Premium and a 250GB hard drive to get you started.

Sleek like the vehicle itself, this notebook measures around 1″ thin, tipping the scales at a mere 3.31 pounds. You get a Formula 1 racing look all over the notebook’s design, including the checkered palm rest which extends into a comfortable full-size keyboard, a metallic LED-lit power button, tire-shape grips located underneath the notebook’s body, selected racing-inspired wallpapers and calendar, and just in case you have enough left over in your bank account, a quick access key to Ferrari.com for you to plan your next supercar purchase. Surprisingly enough, configurations for the ACer Ferrari One start from $599.99 upwards.

DIY project makes it impossible to lose the remote

Ever come home from a long day at work only to discover that the TV remote is missing? I feel your pain. Nothing peeves me more than wanting to kick back and watch a little tube, but then discovering I need to go on a search-and-rescue mission for the remote. Sure you can try to remember to put back the remote when done watching the television, or you could get one of those high tech remote tracking devices, but how about this for an idea?

Here is a low-tech solution to the age old problem of the lost remote. Just take a piece of railroad track, weld a chain onto that and then attach the other end to a brace with the remote firmly secured inside. Viola! No more lost remote.

What a simple idea. And yet, I strongly suspect this project was inspired by a few gas station restroom keys I’ve seen in the past. Although, I guess you could still potentially even lose this remote, but I imagine it wouldn’t get very far and think of the upper body workout you would get in the process.
