MSI GS70 gaming laptop is thinnest and lightest yet


msi-gs70
Gaming laptops tend to tread on thin ice, as they are normally large and bulky in order to accommodate the parts within which require more space than a “normal” working-class laptop. And as physics would dictate, the larger an object is, generally speaking, it would be heavier. Not only that, the performance that you are able to coax out of a gaming laptop would still fall short of your home’s souped up gaming rig most of the time. Well, MSI intends to turn things upside down with the introduction of the MSI GS70 gaming laptop. For starters, the MSI GS70 gaming laptop is a definitely looker, coming in such a svelte body that you might mistake it for an Ultrabook of sorts. After all, we are talking about an ultra-thin and light brush aluminum chassis that measures less than an inch thin, tipping the scales at a respectable 5.7 lbs, clearly making this the thinnest and lightest 17” gaming laptop in the world. I guess MSI has succeeded in achieving the balance between portability and power on the go.
Just what kind of parts will you be able to find underneath the hood? For starters, the MSI GS70 would come with the latest 4th generation Intel Core i7 processor running proceedings from within, and it is accompanied by the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M. You will also find a Killer DoubleShot NIC, a SteelSeries full color backlit keyboard with Anti-Ghosting keys, a 17” Full HD anti-reflective display at 1,920 × 1,080 resolution, a 2.1 speaker system with integrated sub-woofer featuring Sound Blaster Cinema, 16GB RAM, a quartet of USB 3.0 ports, a trio of audio jacks, and a 720p HD webcam.
Not only that, the MSI GS70 prides itself in being the first dual fan laptop with a special thermal solution design which will pull heat from the top side of the laptop, dissipating it instead at a 45 degree upward angle to deliver superior performance and a cool gaming experience even if you have cranked all the detail levels in the game to the maximum to work the MSI GS70. The asking price would start from $1,799.99, with two configurations to choose from.

Zipboard Roll-Up Travel Whiteboard

zipboard
The idea of a flexible display is an enthralling one, but right now, the technology is not quite viable for mass production just yet, so you will just have to be happy with the phablets that are flooding the market at the moment. For those who tend to do a whole lot of traveling to deliver presentations, surely a whiteboard is an essential tool to have at the venue, especially with your collection of markers to write down your thoughts and ideas for the audience to mull over. Do not leave things to chance when you can carry the $29.99 Zipboard Roll-Up Travel Whiteboard around with you. Yes sir, this is one whiteboard that you can take with you anywhere you go, without having to be bogged down by bulk, and it is even small enough to be carried on a plane as hand carry luggage! The whiteboard will retract in the same manner of a scroll for supreme portability, and best of all is, the whiteboard surface would become rigid when it is extended. Each purchase will come with dry erase marker that are located in the base, while there is also an integrated eraser located on the back. Even better is, nothing will be erased even when it retracts, allowing you to “save” whatever you have jotted down for another presentation to a different set of audience at a later date.

Rain Boots with a Bluetooth Speaker

bloom fm boots Rain Boots with a Bluetooth Speaker
Continuing on with today’s theme of “things with a speaker in them” we present to you these Bloom FM Bluetooth Wellies. Or in less elegantly spoken American English: Speaker Rain Boots. Of course the American name doesn’t really matter since these limited edition (of 10 pairs!) boots are made in conjunction with UK based Bloom.fm. Although, you could ship a pair across the pond if you wanted. Look inside, there’s a pouch for your smartphone:

Each pair of boots has a speaker attached to one of the legs. It connects wirelessly to your device via Bluetooth and can put out 80db with a 5 hour playback time. You can really strut around to your own beat. I’m guessing these boots would draw some extra scrutiny if you tried to bring them past airport security.

Ball Returning Soccer Trainer

ball-returning-trainer
So, I am quite sure that many of us who follow the world of football (soccer for those living in the US) in the current summer transfer window would be twiddling their fingers anxiously, wondering whether Gareth Bale would actually make the jump to Real Madrid for what would possibly be a new world record transfer fee of 100 million Euros. Well, as you dream about your kid making it big on the world soccer stage so that you can be his manager and start living a jet-setting lifestyle, perhaps providing him with the right tools to practice consistently would be a good idea. Enter the $99.95 Ball Returning Soccer Trainer, which is a two-in-one soccer net that allows a player spend more time perfecting his or her game, instead of using the bulk of that time to retrieve balls. The Ball Returning Soccer Trainer comes with a sturdy steel frame that has been shaped like an X, where one side of it has been draped with a curved net. Whenever you kick a ball into this area, it will naturally follow an upward arc, before it rebounds with spin and height. This would mean one has to trap and control the ball before taking the next kick, inadvertently developing the fancy skills that are required of a professional. On the reverse side of the trainer, you will find that it comes covered with a taut, vertical net which is capable of absorbing most of the ball’s impact before returning it, so that you have an ideal surface to practice your shots on goal as well as one-touch heading and passing drills.

This Universal Docking Station brings some simplicity to your gadgets


We live in an age of mobile technology. Many of us can’t seem to get by without carrying at least one or two gadgets with us at all times. When you’ve got a phone in your pocket, a tablet and a laptop in your bag, and maybe a handheld console, things can start to look pretty hairy around your outlets at home. When this starts to happen, sometimes what you need is a low-tech solution to your cabling mess.

There are plenty of cable organizers on the market, but I really like the simple and pleasing design of this Universal Dock and Charging Station. While our gadgets are all metal, plastic and glass, this dock is nothing more than wood. Oak, to be specific. There are no special features to be found here. No wireless connectivity, no buttons to push. Just plain and simple wood.
The charging station provides room for eight different charging cables, and uses curved slots to help keep the cables in place, when not being used. If you need something simple and natural to keep track of all of your cords at home, then this $24 accessory might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

It’s no secret how much I love to take pictures. I just got back from a weeklong vacation, and I’m sure that I mad everyone crazy with all the photography. Funny thing is, while I had my entire arsenal of picture taking equipment with me, most of the fun shots were captured with my iPhone. It’s true, I left the Nikon behind on many occasions, not wanting to lug the sucker around. That being said, some of the shots I got could have been better… much better.
Check out the brand new Olloclip Telephoto + CPL, a nifty, quick connecting lens for your iPhone or iPod Touch that gets you twice as close to the action, and fits in the palm of your hand! Perhaps conditions require you to reduce or remove glare, or maybe you’d like the blue of the ocean to really stand out. You simply need to switch sides, and the circular polarizing lens will have what you need.
Forget about missing the shot, or wishing you could have just a tiny bit more creative control, the new Olloclip Telephoto actually allows you to set depth of field, and tinker with subject focus and, this highly portable accessory can also be used with the separately purchased 3 in 1 lens that includes fisheye, macro, and wide angle options.
Sure, there are times when only a professional camera will capture the images you desire, but for fun family pics with a minimum of fuss, Olloclip can give you the extra oomph you need for spectacular pictures and still leave your hands free to get in on the fun. You can pre-order the new Olloclip Telephoto at olloclip.com or get 3 in 1 lenses for under 70 bucks at amazon.com. Say Cheese!
