Hey fellow XDA-ers
here the link:

A Google translated page of an Italian site speaking of a top-secret ppt presentation of the upcoming windows 8.
Got it off my local newspaper's site.
What do you guys recon? Do you think it is real or fake?
To me it looks like one of those old mac desktop designs with the windows desktop look while having some elements of the ChromeOS (like tabs on tskbar)
Any Opinions?

I think if engadget has it, it must be real
its looks alot cooler
I really hope they don't try to dumb it down too much for the users. Some of the features do look cool though.
Very good looking UI so far...
windows 7 just came out last year im sure we have a go 3 or 4 years until windows 8 hahaha
windows 8 pre-alpha build 7312 is fake BTW
it says 2012... release year. somewhere.

Yeah,
Well, now i have sold my desktop pc to my uncle, i could afford it and with a bit of money from my parents i bought it!!
I think i might miss my desktop, but i was fed up with all the wires.
BTW: I think i can play Nightfire on my netbook!!! You up for it?
Merry Christmas!

So you replaced your desktop with a netbook? Braver than me
I have 2 desktops, a laptop and a netbook. All company expenses, all decent specs for gaming and developing It's good when your line of work needs a good pc and graphics card...
Merry Christmas, and hope you like your netbook Which OS are you planning to use on it?
Yep defiantly was on it earlier, trying to practice

Ouch! I used a netbook (my only machine) for the past 18 months (until a couple of months ago), and to be honest, it was painful. Nlited Windows XP runs quite well, 7 isn't too bad, OS X wasn't great but I couldn't go back to windows xD
Well, i got rid of my pc because i was fed up of the wires. And i have been wanting to upgrade to a 2tb hdd for over a year, and i have always bought something else instead.
eg. my android phone. lol
This netbook seems good so far. Its definitly fast enough, and it plays 007: Nightfire!!!
Im running xp at the moment.
But im not sure if putting 7 on it will void the warranty
Does anyone know?

I phoned Acer to send my Aspire One A150 back for a BIOS reflash, they specifically told me that installing a different OS would not void the warranty.
Thanks, good to know!! Il have to check for the drivers on the website first.
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
All hardware on D250 works under Windows 7.
I am in DIRE need of a high end netbook. I bought a Gateway P-7915U FX (a "budget" gaming notebook) thinking it would be GREAT for school and work...
This thing is gigantic. I never thought a 17" laptop would be such a pain in the ass. Great graphics (GTX 260M) and hardware... But it's so heavy and inconvenient. And the keyboard sucks.
I need to dock this thing at my desk and get something smaller to tote around. But I still want decent graphics and processor. I will definitely read the review for the Aspire One, so post it up ASAP.

Clearly they bought it because it fits *their* needs, not yours.
Besides, didn't you say that anyone who owns an i7 rig is a spoilt child? You just love to ***** about things...
Thanks guys!! Planning on putting windows 7 on pen drive and installing it in the next few days, but im not sure cause xp isn't that bad on this machine.
Oh and souljaboy: Im happy with what i have and you should be with what you have so stfu! Cause i ain't sayin your stuff is sh*t.

Actually idea pad had been used in their laptop branding for sure. My brother bought one a few years back for college.

Seriously. Designers need to get off apples ass, and the managers selecting and approving these apple style designs need to be fired. Not only does it provide free advertising for apple But it also makes the brand producing it more obscure. Seriously if you are a product designer, get some damn imagination. If you are responsible for approving these designs, slap yourselves. Hard. And then go find a job you are actually good at. IBM has sunk sooooo low.
Wow, WTF IBM? What are you doing? Thats going a bit far, don't you think...
Lenovo should just stick to what their good at, what people know them for and what people buy them for... Kinda squared, kinda chunky, industrial looking BLACK laptops of EXTREMELY GOOD quality and great after sales support. Looks like a tank, heavy like a tank and can take a beating like a tank. C'mon, don't Fcuk over you core audience here IB...umm, Lenovo...
Hi it is about your question my vote is apple for my apple man steve jobs

Lenovo acquired IBM's Personal Computing Division in 2005.
Lenovo still produces the black chunky lappys, its the THinkPad line, IdePad is just the retarted inbred child Lenovo had with itself.

right, exactley.
Unless you need one strictly for business purposes, I don't recommend Thinkpads.
They are really designed from the ground-up (both hardware and software) for the workplace. I have both an expensive T61 and a less expensive HP entertainment laptop, and wish I had never purchased the Lenovo.
How to Begin.. there is History... LOL
First I found this site in researching about the Nexus 7 2012 I recently acquired.. and trying to update
I am an Old AMIGA hound by heart and have recently be getting my hands and mind wrapped around the Raspberry PI and the linux setup for the RETRO AMIGA ... lots to relearn
I enjoy trying to fix things and was wanting to "rescue some older Amiga systems" (along with other broken electronics) and I also have started learning my Micro soldering to accomplish repairs... (this is how I came upon the ASUS Nexus 7 2012)
This is the challenge in restarting to learn things that have pasted my old knowledge... is asking the noob questions all over again

Hi David, I had a question since you mention micro solder; I dont knw if its a silly question but just curious, here it is - If 6 Gigs of RAM is soldered on a smartphone motherboard which came with 2 Gigs of RAM, can 6 GB ram chip be micro soldered on it replacing 2 Gb chip? Will it still work? [I did some light-search on Duck but didnt find much]
