华硕笔记本再登珠峰
2007年5月24日早晨7点,华硕笔记本随珠峰业余登山队登顶珠峰,成为世界上第一台登顶珠峰的笔记本电脑。
2008年4月,奥运圣火将第一次登上珠峰,华硕将继续为中国登山队提供全程IT技术支持。
"在珠峰上用笔记本,这本本的质量可够好的呀!"——这是我(或许还有不少人)的第一反应。珠峰太高了,封顶的最低气温常年在零下三四十摄氏度。山上一些地方常年积雪不化,冰川、冰坡、冰塔林到处可见。在这样的低温条件,本本能受得了吗?
首先是本本的液晶屏幕。很多材料在低温环境下都会变得很脆,容易损坏。液晶也不例外。温度太低,液晶冷却成为晶体,液晶屏就变成黑屏。都黑屏了,本子还能正常使用吗?
再次是本子的电池。电池能供电,靠得就是里面的电化学反应。温度低了,反应就慢了,离子也跑不动了,电量就不足了。启动慢,屏幕暗,这些问题也就来了。
电池的待机时间也是个问题,在户外充电是不方便的吧。
然后是本子的抗震性。登山时有太多不确定性因素,身体可不像平常走路时那么平稳,偶尔摔跤也是正常的。笔记本这样晃荡来晃荡去,硬盘等部件是很容易损伤的。
最后,笔记本在低温环境使用后,放入包包里面,会不会产生水汽。如果有水汽,发生短路,烧坏笔记本也是有可能的。
上面是从物理、化学、机械振动方面,分析了笔记本在珠峰这样恶劣的环境下会碰到的一些问题。这让我想起了SMT方面的一些知识,都快全忘了。
华硕笔记本确实不错,能在这样恶劣的环境测试通过,肯定花费了很多工程师的不少心血。
我的习惯性观念是:在这种环境还能正常工作的笔记本,在平常环境下的表现肯定很稳定,甚至更出色。
以上只是我的观点,朋友们请自辩!

Pete Wentz Mercedes Blunder
After popping into a local Rite Aid today, Fall Out Boy frontman Pete Wentz had a little luxury mix-up.
Pete tried to get into a big black shiny Mercedes before realizing it wasn't his!
Apparently, the car was a Mercedes S550 (*scoff*). Pete quickly headed over to his nearly identical Mercedes S600 (aaaaah, that's better), smiling and laughing the whole thing off before heading out.
Who hasn't been there? Except with us, we mistook a wood-paneled Dodge Caravan for our wood-paneled Chrysler Town & Country. Wow. That was embarrassing.

Eric Dane Brings the Steam to 3rd Street
Eric Dane lived up to his Grey's Anatomy nickname today by looking totally swoon-worthy (or, steamy, if you prefer) while grabbing lunch with friends at celebrity stomach-filler, Joan's on Third.
Is it just us, or does Dane look strikingly like Brad Pitt in the (above) photo on the left? Like, circa Cool World minus 3 vertical inches of hair?
Eric must be a fan of Joan's. We spotted him and his Porsche there not so long ago. At least he wasn't eating a bowl of JOS's finest nacho cheese like this guy.
