Fit

fit-pc-2-compulabCompuLab is quite well known for producing tinsy-tiny puters.

This mini-marvel measures a mere 4 x 4.5 x 1.05 inches and weighs in at only13 ounces, the fit-PC2i is hailed as the planet’s smallest dual gigabit Ethernet-equipped PC and at the mo I’m willing to believe it.

Don’t be fooled by its small size though.

It aint no toy – this is a real and viable PC.

The fit-PC2i is based around an Intel Z5xx (1.1 to 2 GHz) processor, the fit adds up to 2GB of DDR2 RAM, built-in WiFi and space for a 2.5 inch HDD.

You can hook it up via four USB 2.0 ports, 2 gigabit Ethernet ports, S/PDIF and, confusingly, DVI – surely that space could be used for HDMI?

It supports 1080p video playback, includes an IR receiver and runs Windows 7. This means as a media machine sat next to your huge HDTV it would do a thoroughly decent job methinks.

The rig consists of a 100% aluminium die-cast body, and even at full load it sips just 8 watts of power.

So – add it to Santa’s list, get him to order from the Fit PC site and wait ’til January for it to ship.

Prices range from $245-$499.

Look at its lovliness below :)

Minutes Gym – Wii Fit Without the Wii

by Jay G on March 30, 2009

minutes_gymIf you’re looking to buy Wii just for Wii fit you may want to check out the Minutes Gym Digital Video Trainer from Takara Tomy.

It is easily hooked up to your TV or any display with a composite video input.

From there you enter some basic info and use the integrated body fat sensor to measure your current state of physical fitness (or lack of).

Instead of a scary personal trainer barking at you you are faced with cutsey animated figures that guide you through various fitness regimes; of which there is over 100,000,000 3 minute workouts – that’s over 100 million!!!!

Since this device can measure your body fat, it can monitor your physical progress over a period of 3 months.

It is available from the Japan Trend Shop for $73.

I got this lump of info from Ohgizmo

So, you dutifully check your BMI and age on Wii Fit and things are going the right way (apart from that little speed bump that is Christmas).
You’re looking forward to some more challanges in Wii Fit 2?

Twit or Fit? UK based Hot or Not/Twitter Combo

December 15, 2008 Click to read more →

The UK based Twit Or Fit has now launched!
Think a mash-up of Twitter and Hot Or Not.
Basically you rate the appearance of people displayed on a scale of 1-10.
Why has this happened?  Well, it could be something to do with HotOrNot being sold recently for a rumored $20 million!
TwitOrFit relies on Twitter members and therefore has little inherent intellectual property so [...]

Does Wii Fit Work?

It has been about 6 years since I stopped coaching Lau Gar and I’m getting to the ‘built for comfort and not speed’ zone – it doesn’t help that I’m soon to be 3 years off of being 40!!
Now that my music career is going fairly well my thoughts have started turning to the idea [...]
