Microsoft Looking to Maneuver Around Google, Apple by Conquering Africa

Raspberry Pi is definitely in the news again with Google Inc. donating 15,000 units to schools in the U.K. “This is a brilliant way for us to find kids all over the country whose aptitude for computing can now be explored properly,” wrote a Raspberry Pi Foundation representative in a blog post. “We believe that access to tools is a fundamental necessity in finding out who you are and what you’re good at. We want those tools to be within everybody’s grasp, right from the start”. There has been a lot of debate on the purpose and how sufficient is the current computer knowledge being taught to the younger generations as the whole world progresses towards a more technological centric approach to live our lives. There is a definite lack of structure to encourage students to explore their creativity and expand their experience with computer programming and modeling which is proving to be an important skill in the demands of today’s computer based innovation industry.

The Microsoft Surface + Windows 8

The most radical redesign of Windows since 1995, Windows 8 erases the distinction between tablets and full-fledged PCs. The new operating system embraces touchscreen gesture control while retaining mouse and keyboard inputs. The default presentation looks like a mobile interface: Tiles displaying snippets of information replace icons, and the static desktop becomes a moving flow of websites and apps. (Users can access a traditional desktop if they prefer.) This reinvention of the OS is a platform for a reinvention of the PC as well. Microsoft’s new Surface series of tablets have keyboards built into their protective covers, and the Pro model offers the full versatility of a laptop.

It was thought that 3D printing would be just a passing fad where the novelty of being able to design a product and have it printed immediately would diminish after a while but advancement in 3D machining today definitely proves otherwise. Many manufacturers already use 3D printing to make prototypes of parts, because it is cheaper and more flexible than tooling up to produce just one or two items. But the technology is now good enough for it to be used to make production items too. GE Aviation buying into Morris Technologies is definitely one to watch out due to the highly specialized nature of 3D machining and it is clear that GE plans to use these 3D components in real world applications. This could be the start of a truly revolutionary process.
