Google launches Chromebooks rental service



Lately some rumors circulating about a new service that Google launched and was renting Chromebooks. It seems that these rumors proved to be true, as the company is now renting these laptops to $ 30 monthly. $ 30 may seem expensive for most, but the good news is that this price drops every year. During the first year, we paid $ 30 per month for the second we paid $ 25 each month and during the third year and then on the monthly cost is $ 20.
The good thing about this service is that it does not come with any contract for 1 year or similar. The contract is renewed monthly, so next month if you plan not to use it, just have it back at the end of this month and problem solved.
In addition to launching this new service, Google has also started selling Chromebooks wholesale, each costing $ 600. This amount may sound expensive for the average user, but corporations is a good deal.

Research In Motion, better known as RIM, the company behind the BlackBerry, has kept a total secret details on BlackBerry smartphones that will use 10 as the operating system. Well not anymore, because yesterday has leaked a picture of what could be a pre-commercial model of a mobile BB 10.
At first glance, the photo does not reveal anything, but if we look a little more we can see that has a front camera, an LED and a small speaker at the top. It also says it has the classic BlackBerry logo on the bottom of the screen, but this is not enough to distinguish fine.
RIM has not commented on the matter.

The website has been pretty hectic in the last hours as Anonymous, the hacktivist collective known, has managed to hack a laptop FBI and has stolen no less than 12 million IDs of Apple and other data.
Through a post pastebin.com, the group has taken credit for the fact, which was made possible by a Java vulnerability AtomicReferenceArray. In the post were not placed pastebin.com or similar personal data, nor the 12 million IDs, since only 1 million came to light.
What really strange is the fact that the FBI had similar data in their possession. Why would the federal IDs 12 million Apple accounts and other data such as addresses and phone numbers?

Most tablets are not very resistant to say, and if we have butterfingers, then we must be extra careful when handling one of these devices. Fortunately, we found a tablet that does not bother you "hug the ground" from time to time: the Getac Z710.
This new tablet, created by Getac, Android tablet is considered the toughest in the world thanks to its resistance to drops, dust and water. Their resistance to shock is partly provided by his glass Gorilla Glass.
Inside, the Getac Z710 has a dual-core 1GHz OMAP and has 1GB of RAM. On the outside has a 1-megapixel front camera and a 5 megapixel standard, along with a 7-inch screen.
The available connectivity include Bluetooth 2.1, WiFi and 3G. The version without 3G costs $ 1500, and 3G is priced at $ 1800. If you ask me, is a bit expensive, especially since it costs running the old Android 2.3.

You may recall that in March we first turn to Cheetah, the fastest robot in the moment, but still could not beat runners like Usain Bolt and 40km / h. Well now he has succeeded.
The technology of this robot has been improved by their manufacturers, Boston Dynamics, and now has reached the mark of 28 miles per hour, equivalent to about 45 kilometers per hour, undoubtedly surpassing the speed of any human being.
While Cheetah is currently only able to run a bit faster than Bolt, hopefully with more research and development is to reach the mark of 80 kilometers per hour, making it without doubt the fastest robot.
