Although there are a ton of things out there on the internet that will seriously damage your computer, there is something a lot more dangerous than a typical virus out there these days. I’m talking about Ransomware. This isn’t just a really bad virus. It is a tool that criminals are now using to lock you out of your own computer, steal every bit of information you ever had on it, INCLUDING access to all of your online accounts, and holding it for ransom. Unless you pay them the amount of money they are asking for, your computer is absolutely useless, and your information isRead More →

Earlier this year Sony sold off its Vaio PC business to an investment firm in order to concentrate more on their smartphone and tablet business. Many Vaio lovers were very upset with the news. But since then, Sony’s Vaio computers have popped back up, just under new management. Japan Industrial Partners officially put out a new line of Vaio laptops. The only downside is that for right now, these laptops are only available in the Japanese market. There might be some hope for a new U.S. release though. When Japan Industrial Partners bought the company in February, they said that they would begin selling VaioRead More →

Even though most people are saying that the Ultrabook market is dead (man, that was fast) that hasn’t stopped Sony from working hard on producing a slim, ultraportable laptop that is rumored to run Google’s Chrome operating system. That is, if recent documents filed with the FCC are to be believed. That would mark Sony’s first Chromebook, the device that Google unsuccessfully tried to launch not too long ago. Google struck a deal with both Acer and Samsung almost a year ago to sell Chromebooks, which the company described as instant-on “browser-in-a-box” devices, similar to netbooks. The difference in Chromebooks was that they were more affordableRead More →

So Sony has decided to dive somewhat into the tablet industry but not completely. The Dash has a tablet-like appearance and many of the same functions, but it is not exactly as portable as tablets like the iPad. The Sony Dash has a pretty basic structure. It features a seven-inch touchscreen, stereo speakers, a snooze bar/menu button, volume buttons, a USB port, a headphone jack, and of course the power connection cord. The case that encompasses the Dash is made of a rubber-like material that allows you to get a good, secure grip on the device. The biggest problem that I see with the DashRead More →
