Laptop Shipments Exceed Desktops For The First Time

I just read the article from the web and found this interesting news. Had been a while we discuss all the time about laptop, desktop, workstation and thin client. We see the significant grow for the number of laptop in the market VS desktop and the 1st time we see the number of laptop had been overtake the desktop. Personally, here is my opinion. Laptop today is good enough to handle most of the activities require to be performed for personal and work related today thanks to the competion from Intel and AMD, as well as the graphic chip from Intel, ATI & nvidia which is too powerful for most of the users. Desktop, is not mobile type and is not green in my point of view. Therefore, I am not a big fans of desktop, unless for gaming purpose. Of course the desktop will not been dissapear in the market for now, but it will significant reduce as it may not be the favour for major users today.

Wipro Take over the IT services Company from Citigroup

Latest new from informationweek.com that the Citigroup had been agreed with a deal of $ 127 Million. Many of the discussion now had been started to talk about the job availabilities after this deal. As many of us aware, to further reduce operation expenses in IT, offshore the IT support to Asia will be the choices as it is really tough for the current economy. At the same time, the impact of this news will also reduce the job vacancy for US who work for Citigroup. Is really interesting to monitor the followup status of this deal and hopefully will not create another massive lay off in US because of the deal.
