However, quantum dots have been a real deal, and it’s as real as it gets. Samsung has demonstrated a four-inch quantum dot display with full color.

It’s already known that manufacturers of laptop already have chipsets of Sandy Bridge as they’re not affected by the recall of Intel’s Cougar Point chipset, but we never expect it to be so early. Sony has started the first wave of Sandy Bridge notebooks with their latest VAIO CB and CA laptops that seem to be for hipsters. They may also blind you if you’re not careful.

Their latest notebook comes with excessive usage of green and orange neon color. Starting at $800, the 14-inch CA10 and 15.5-inch CB10 will both be available with Intel Sandy Bridge Core i5 processors, AMD Radeon HD 6630 graphics, and Blu-ray drives. Select models will also pack Intel’s WiDi 2.0 which lets you stream 1080p video to your TV.

The laptops will be coming on March 13^th, but you will also have other varieties of color if you don’t want to be blinded by the ‘exclusive’ colors.

Formula One car and races might be boring to some people. I mean, they move so fast that you can barely see them, and they all look the same, and there’s hardly any exchange in paint and overtaking and crashes. But they’re the most expensive racing event in the world. Hopefully this video will show you why it cost so much to develop an F1 car, and motivate you to pay attention in math and science class for a very fun career in F1.

Thus far, Motorola has had the reputation of being rather strict when it comes to their handsets’ bootloader. Every devices of Motorola with Android has been shipping with tightly-locked bootloader, like the Atrix 4G. This makes custom kernels a very frustrating thing to have for Motorola handset owners. Last month the company said that it was working on a solution that’d cater to the developer community, and it looks like the Xoom might be the first to see such signs.

The bootloader of the Xoom can be unlocked and relocked at will. Of course, since the Xoom is running a completely bone-stock build of Android and, as Honeycomb’s launch device, Google might be showing some influence behind the scenes, because both the Nexus One and Nexus S both have unlockable bootloaders. However, this is just pure speculations, but still a good beginning for Motorola.
