Two hours boost in PC battery life with Intel's Core M chips

Undeniably, the main attraction of the IFA show is expected to be wearable’s in different forms ranging from head-covering, flashy and round ones. After this one will be able to see a whole new range of 2-in-1 computers, super thin tablets, most of them possibly made by Intel's new low-power Core M chips.

This processor was initially teased by Intel in early summer, in the form of 7.2mm thick tablet. This tablet was thinner when compared to iPad Air. With increasing number of systems to be available in the market based on the same processors, it is the right time for Intel to give details about the capability of this new M chips.

Even though this processors and CPUs are part of the Broadwell family (after the current Haswell line), they are still not meant to replace the standard-voltage fourth-generation Core processors from Intel. These processors are inside most of the high end laptops. These are not expected to be available in the market till next year.

Contrary to the above, Core M is expected to be resultant to the ultra-low-powered "Y series”, which are a specific variant of the Haswell processors. These are already being used in many 2-in-1 PCs. Apart from PCs; this is also meant for 2-in-1 super thin notebooks. Core M promises a faster performance and a long battery life. Now this is first capability expected from a new chip.

The new range of PCs are expected to be more thinner, lighter when compared the previous version as Intel has now moved to 14-nanometer process with Broadwell from 22-nanometer process with Haswell. Even though Intel has already informed that most of the PCs are expected to be measuring around 7mm thick, but people should not be expecting all the devices will be like iPad Air. All this can be attributed to the shrinking size of components. The die size is 37% smaller and the motherboard is now at 25% in size.

As far as power consumption is concerned, as per Intel TDP for PCs will be available in market at 4.5W. As a result of this the users will be able to save 1.7 hours of battery as well as improved local 1080p video playback. These systems are expected to run cooler as compared to earlier systems. According to Intel integrated HD 5300 graphics will show 40% improved performance and 50% of increased CPU performance.

Some of the other features include Wireless Display 5.0 and Intel's Smart Sound technology. These chips are expected to support WiGig wireless docking standard in the near future. More than 20 different models of Core M are about to be unveiled, Lenovo's ThinkPad Helix being the first one. According to Intel the price of these are expected to drop as low as $599 but potential buyers shouldn’t be expecting anything as cheap as this soon.

Why Are Genuine Auto Parts So Important?

Genuine OEM auto parts are vital for the repair and maintenance of every vehicle on the road. People sometimes want to buy different parts to save money, but only OEM parts can work in the vehicle properly. Every driver who needs to repair their vehicle must remember that they are getting OEM parts for every repair. Someone who is purchasing these parts on their own must make sure they are getting OEM parts, and someone who is at the auto shop must ask if OEM parts are being used.

Lining Up Parts

OEM parts come directly from the manufacturer of the vehicle. Owners of cars and trucks must make sure they are searching for OEM auto parts that are made by the manufacturer of their vehicle. There are very few parts that overlap, and it is best to make sure the name of the company is printed on the box.
The parts that are made by the manufacturer are going to line up when they are used anywhere on the car. The combination of OEM parts and other parts could result in a poor repair, and a lack of OEM parts could break down a car quickly.

Choosing The Model And Year

When the owner of the car or truck is choosing their parts, they must pick the right model and year for their parts. Cars and trucks change slightly depending on the design, and the design tends to change from year to year. Two cars that look identical will not necessarily have the same engine and interior parts. The best way for someone to avoid problems is to check the sticker on the inside of the driver door. This sticker says exactly what model the car is, when it was built and will point the driver in the direction of the right parts.

When people are trying to repair their own cars, they need to purchase genuine OEM parts. However, when people are at an auto shop, they must ask the mechanic is OEM parts are being used. These parts will help cars last longer, run better and retain more value.

Run Windows on Your Mac smoothly

Steve Jobs in the year 2005 gave the most unbelievable piece of information that was a jaw dropping situation for everyone. He stated that the company who has been using the IBM or Motorola chips in their Mac computers from past 21 years will now switch over to Intel processors.

Even though many were shocked over this decision but; this switchover turned Mac into a completely new computer. All the Mac programs were expected to be rewritten or atleast they would have to start working on the classic windows. The OS X, Mac operating system would also require to be rewritten, but sources claimed that the rewriting of the operating system has already been done by Apple secretly.

But many techies were thinking that if the Mac comes with an Intel chip inside then it will become easy for hackers to run windows through it. There are four categories of people who will be willing to do this:

• Fans of computers programs like Microsoft, QuickBooks and Quicken, who are more advanced and rich in terms of their windows version.
• People, who rely on programs which are currently unavailable in Mac computers, like IE, AutoCAD, SAP- corporate social planning, and other custom apps of corporations.
• This can be done by people who like to write software and WebPages. Through this they will be able to test their work in different operating systems, while still working on a single computer or laptop.
• People who are looking for safety can switch from windows to Mac and then switch back to Mac whenever they find a need to do that.

For some time there were instructions circulated all over the internet on how to switch from windows to Mac and vice versa. The later on Bootcamp was introduced by Apple, which was the most authorized way for installing windows on Mac computers. But the drawback of Bootcamp was that one can either run windows or Mac operating system at one time. The system will need to be restarted every time you are looking to change operating system.

Another option that was put forth was virtualization programs which include VMWare Fusion or Parallels Desktop. These virtual programs will allow the users to run windows in window even though you are in Mac computer. You will be able to run both the operating system at the same time and can even copy data from one operating system to another.

According to reports parallel operating system will allow the users to run the Microsoft office application 50 times faster than before and also save upto 30% of the battery life. So now Mac has become one of the most prominent choice for millions of users around the world.

According to some reports Apple has also got into a deal with credit card companies Mastercard, American express and Visa to facilitate transactions.

NFC

NFC basically is a medium for wireless communication which allows the users to exchange data between two devices. Flow of information is more convenient through NFC. NFC technology comes in three different forms including device-device, card emulation and tag reader and writer. Tag reading facility with enable the companies to put a tag on movies, which the user can scan through their smartphones and even iwatch the trailers. One will be able to tap their smartphones which are enabled with NFC on any coupon tag and avail special offers. NFC facility will allow users to connect their phones to their printers wirelessly. This facility with come as a boon for both NFC users and Bluetooth users as both the technologies are interoperable.

Cupertino, California, on 9th September, Apple has invited media for a special event in their hometown. Apple is expected to release their latest version of their smart phones during this event. These new version phones will be available for people from 19th of September.

One thing to remember is that you can use the NFC enabled services only in NFC enables stores. You will not be able to make payment through you phone in a store without NFC enabled.
