The Beginning of OUR Era

Welcome All!!

This is the first in a series of Blogs concerning Tech in today's digital age revolution. Future post will be made concerning PCs and Macs, Tablets and Phones and other cutting edge tech as a whole. Today we are going to start with what the country's been discussing in length for the last few weeks, The Battle of the Tech Giants, i.e. Apple, Google and Microsoft, all with new hardware hitting our shores sometime this year. Apple with the upgrades to the Macbook Air and Pro Series, Google with the Nexus Line and Microsoft with the Surface.

Apple is out in force with the new Macbook Air and Pro laptops. This new sleek Retina display looks like it might help keep Apple ahead of the pack, at least for a little while longer. They've updated the Pro with an i7 Ivy Bridge Processor, SSD and 8 GB of RAM as a standard, guaranteeing a blazing fast beast of a machine. The Air is not only slightly lighter but much more nimble with a 1.8 GHZ i5 processor with the standard sizes for the SSD, that seems to be standard for Apple at this point.

Google dropped some serious hardware on us at the I/O this passing June. The Nexus 7, the Nexus Q and the Galaxy Nexus Smartphone, with the Nexus 7 and Galaxy Nexus both running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and the Nexus Q running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. The Nexus 7 is shaping up to be a tablet contender against the Generation 3 iPad and I have to admit, it’s a beautiful looking device to say the least. With 1 GB of RAM and a Quad Core Tegra 3 processor , borrowing a line from D2 The Mighty Ducks, this thing can really fly. The Nexus Q, is shaping up to be an interesting sounding device in theory, albeit a little expensive. It is billed as a social streaming media player that is sure to cause many a fight when it arrives at my house. With the easy ways to share and play music this is going to be interesting at least for constant entertainers. Last but certainly not least, the Galaxy Nexus is a smartphone on a mission. With 4.1 Jelly Bean at the helm, it looks to remove and reverse some of the problems that have plagued Android users since the beginning, like lag in opening apps and transitioning between them (a big pet peeve of mines is fluidity, so this cuts me deep) and the huge speed increase will make this smartphone something to watch out for.

Microsoft's new tablet, the Surface, is making waves throughout the Tech World, some good, some bad and worse. From a personal prospect I think its gold, but it seems not everyone is in line with my train of thought.

The Surface ships in two formats with each with a different operating system, the "light" tablet version of Windows 8 called Windows 8 RT and one with a full install of Windows 8 Pro Edition. The "light" version hits shelves around the same time Windows 8 does and the Pro Edition following sometime Quarter 1 next year. The RT version comes in 32 and 64 GB varieties and the Pro Edition with a 64 and 128 GB and with the blazing fast Tegra 3+ ARM Type Processor. Just with those alone (and with having the Windows 8 Developer Preview) I think this is going to be the start of a new wave of tablets.
