12 W Adapter Charges Your iPad And iPhone Much Faster

Apple

               On the product page for the new 12W USB charger, Apple confirmed it would indeed ship with Retina iPads. With the new fourth-gen replacing the third-gen iPad—that would essentially cover just the iPad 4. It is, however, selling the adapter by itself for $19 online and listing compatibility with iPad 2, iPhone 4S, and iPod touch fifth-gen and up.

 Apple said, “We don’t have an exact percentage of how much faster it would charge but you should see an increase in speed.”

This is good news to iPad third generation owners who were disappointed with the slow charge times from the original 10W adapter.

Customers who want to turbocharge their device can buy the new 12W USB power adapter for $19 from Apple’s online store.

Microsoft Surface For $19.99 At Amazon Mistakenly

                           Amazon had the price of the Microsoft Surface Touch at $19.99 on Friday! Actually.the  online retailer had a listing for the Microsoft Surface Touch Cover. This is the 3mm thick cover for Microsoft's new slate that also doubles as a touch sensitive QWERTY keyboard. Normally listed on sale for $119.99, Amazon had posted a price of $19.99 for the Touch Cover. The product was out of stock, but Amazon was still accepting orders for those who don't mind waiting for the retailer's inventory to be replenished. With the $19.99 price believed to be a typo, it is unclear whether or not Amazon will honor the orders placed at the lower price.



                  The Microsoft Surface has a virtual QWERT keyboard, but the Touch Cover and the Type Cover are both available as accessories. Both connect to the tablet with the use of a magnetic dock. Even though most people are used to the style of the keyboard on the Type Cover, many are saying that the typing experience is superior on the cheaper Touch Cover.

                   
Later on Friday, Amazon took down the price of the listing, replacing it with a message that it would notify those who leave their email address when the cover is back in stock.

Judge Crabb Unhappy With Apple

The Apple-Motorola Mobility FRAND patent trial will begin on Monday at 1pm, Judge Barbara Crabb didn't like Apple's stated willingness to enter into a licensing agreement with Motorola Mobility for the right to use the latter's standards-essential patents, only if it didn't have to pay more than $1 per Apple iPhone.

The judge noted her thoughts in an "Opinion and Order" entered with the court on Friday. Judge
Crabb does not want to order Motorola to make an offer to Apple if the Cupertino based firm is going to use that offer as a negotiating tool, and she now "believes it would be inappropriate to grant Apple's
clarified request for specific performance".

Judge Crabb is not happy with Apple

She added that if ordering Motorola to make an offer to Apple would end all of the patent litigation or  extended negotiations, she would have granted Apple's request for specific performance, but "it is now clear that specific performance would not resolve those concerns". Apple didn't help its cause by using a 'blackmail' type approach to the $1 rate it tried to force on Motorola and the court. Apple should have guessed that judges don't like being forced into doing anything. We recommend that Apple's attorneys watch a few episodes of Judge Judy to learn that. A similar statement was made in the Microsoft-Motorola Mobility FRAND case which is going to trial on November 13th. In that case, Judge James Robart told both sides to stop using the court "as a pawn in a global, industry-wide business negotiation".

What Is Memory Leak And How To Fix It

                          Does your PC often hang?Often it happens that this occurs due to unavailable free memory.But this can also occur if you are running just one application,maybe a browser?How do you account for that?Well,the answer is memory leak.A memory leak is a particular type of unintentional memory consumption by a computer program when that program fails to release memory when no longer needed. This condition is normally the result of a bug in a program that prevents it from freeing up memory that it no longer needs.In this case,memory is allocated to a program, and that program subsequently loses the ability to access it due to program logic flaws.
Memory leak can sometimes be extremely fatal and hence it is necessary to detect memory leak and rectify it.

How to detect memory leak?

Sometimes it may happen that you are just going on running program after program when suddenly you notice that the PC starts to slow down.Once you close those apps the PC returns to its normal state.That slowing down is not due to memory leak but due to unavailability of free RAM.
             

                 Whenever you feel that the machine is slowing down and you have just one or two programs open then it is better to use the task manager.Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to open it.There you can check the amount of memory being used by each process.


                       If your browser is using too much memory ,according to you then it may be a case of memory leak.But always check for viruses .They are notorious for slowing down your PC substantially and you can't even detect with the task manager.

How To Fix It?

Okay so now you know what a memory leak is and how to detect it.But how do you fix it?Here are the steps.

1.Download Process Explorer and set it as the default task manager.This application is very useful and can provide much more information than the built in one.

2. Download FreeRAM XP Pro

8.Restart your apps.If it was a browser then you can easily restore the opened tabs.
