The PC is Reborn
The PC is Reborn information:
By Naveed Siraj
You may have thought that the big desktop computer with the bulky beige box had disappeared completely but that’s not the case, it’s just had a significant facelift. With the wave of slim, sleek tablets and notebooks on the market today, the PC of old is unrecognisable
PCs are going through a transformation towards slimmer designs and touch screens. Customers are leading that push and demanding devices that are ideally suited to our home and work life. Features like Intel’s Wireless Display – or Wi-Di also mean that you can stream videos, photos or apps to your home theatre system with just a few clicks.
More and more people across Asia are rethinking what they know about PCs. Research firm IDC shows that the number of desktop PCs bought by consumers in [in Indonesia] 2013 grew by 22 per cent compared with 2012. In Malaysia people the number was 14 per cent more and Vietnam grew by 17 per cent over the same time. Australia saw a five per cent rise in sales for consumer desktop PCs signalling that interest is growing.
Think back ten years ago and the home computer took up an entire desk or corner of the home office. Some new home PCs are so small – they take up the same amount of space as a CD case. Others can hang on the back of a TV, sit on the kitchen bench or be purposefully designed to double as the home multimedia and entertainment hub.

Find 7a : A Flagship Phone You Can Afford [Review]
Find 7a : A Flagship Phone You Can Afford [Review] information:
Oppo phones are all about their unique design and premium build quality, Find 7a is no exception. It has a simplistic design, yet it catches the attention even from a distance.
This phone is 6.01 inches tall, 2.95 inches wide and almost 0.36 inches (9.2mm) thick, although the size of the device is quite big but it’s easy to hold because the handset is made mostly of polycarbonate plastic. It does have a titanium-aluminium frame, metallic keys and a shiny Oppo logo on the back; which gives the device a premium feel.
We’ve got the “Astro Black” version for review, which comes with a slightly curved carbon-fiber texture. This not only gives the phone a nicer look but actually helps to grasp it firmly.

Telenor Pakistan Inaugurates Location Based Disaster Warning SMS System
Telenor Pakistan Inaugurates Location Based Disaster Warning SMS System inormation:
Aimed at mitigating the impact of disasters and extending timely relief to the victims by introducing in Pakistan the first of its kind innovative location based early warning SMS system, Telenor Pakistan has recently signed an agreement with its emergency response partners, Pakistan Red Crescent Society (PRCS) for Beneficiary Communications Project.
The agreement was signed by Michael Patrick Foley, Chief Executive Officer, Telenor Pakistan and Mehboob Sardar Secretary General, PRCS in the presence of Minister for IT & Telecom Anusha Rehman at PRCS National Headquarters.
The project is a flagship endeavour designed to ensure preparedness and mitigation of a disaster through emergency response, emergency recovery, rehabilitation and development. Beneficiary Communication Project will allow aid agencies and mobile phone users in disaster-hit areas to interact in real time through SMS text system creating much needed timely communication flow.
The project is jointly funded by International Federation of Red Crescent (IFRC) and Telenor Pakistan.
Sharing her views, Minister for IT & Technology, Anusha Rehman said, “Unfortunately, Pakistan has seen recurring natural disasters in recent times. It is hearting to see that Telenor Pakistan and PRCS have again collaborated to develop a system utilizing their core competencies to bring positive social change. This is true empowerment, as it will allow potential affectees to proactively lives. Everyone can in fact become a helping hand.”
On this occasion, Michael Patrick Foley said, ” Unlike traditional SMS services, which require broadcast messages to be delivered to every subscriber on a carrier’s network, this system allows PRCS to specify a particular region or even a neighborhood to which text messages will be sent to mobile phones. The text messages elicit response from mobile phone users in need of aid, giving them an effective voice on how assistance should be delivered. After reviewing the impact of Beneficiary Communication in emergency situations in various parts of the world, we are hopeful that this first of its kind project in Pakistan can deliver effective aid in the form of information that facilitates the recovery of communities affected by disasters. Beneficiary communication aims to save and improve lives through the provision of timely, relevant and accurate information and support an environment of transparency and accountability through the creation of feedback mechanisms. This project will engage communitiesin dialogue and integrate beneficiary feedback into the decision making process of our emergency response programmes.” Dr. Saud Elahi, Chairman, PRCS said, “One of the major challenges being faced by humanitarian organizations in natural-disaster areas is the lack of early warning for affectees that can mitigate the effects and save many lives. The available telecommunications services in the country after these disasters are immediately congested and choked causing extreme difficulty in established of reliable communication with the affected community. It increases the necessity of a dedicated system that can respond better in such a situation. TERA System is a fast, secure and effective communication platform between humanitarian organizations and the community. It has been very effectively experienced during last Haiti EQ. Since it is based on SMS (short text messages) technology, it makes a low use of telecommunications services by delivering localized early warning as well as aid related messages to the affected community. We are indebted to Telenor Pakistan for always providing generous and valuable support in the form of cash and other forms. Telenor Pakistan has always been at the fore front responding to the disasters and has taken the leading role.”
Telenor Pakistan will work as technology enabler providing the platform and outreach whereas PRCS will provide the communication system via vendor and user of the system for defined objectives (via interface).
This innovative system will link PRCS with the community in times of disaster, through location-based opt-in service for Telenor subscribers. The service will enable Telenor subscribers to receive timely messages pertaining to disaster alerts, relief, pre/post emergency awareness and aid disbursement. The project will focus on disaster prone areas of Pakistan. As a socially responsible organization, Telenor Pakistan has always responded to the call of natural, man-made and conflict emergencies by targeting specific and un-met needs of the affectees. As part of its emergency response program, the company has contributed an amount of PKR 404 million since its inception and vows to continue setting the standard for the industry in future.
