A little over two weeks ago HP sent me an AIO 200 PC to check out and when I got it I was super excited! I would of posted about getting it sooner but I was busy with finals. But schools over and now I have more time to play. So this post is just to let you know I received it and will have a review on it soon.
The AIO stands for All-in-One, which means the computer and monitor are combined and what’s even cooler is that its thin and doesn’t take up a lot of room. It fits perfectly in any corner. The keyboard and mouse are also wireless so you can put them away in a drawer if you aren’t using them. I am sorta using the AIO 200 as a PC/TV and watch movies on it using NetFlix and the HP MediaSmart software.

I love shopping. I don’t think I can ever get enough of it, and as the world of technology is allowing me to ‘hustle’ the system more and more, and making sales for accessible to me – I doubt my career in shopping will end anytime soon…
I received an amazing email today from HP – one of the many companies going all out on their Memorial Day weekend sales and I just had to share it with all of you…first of all – understand that this is one of the best weekends to shop…it is…especially if you know someone in the armed forces – some places give you an extra 10& or 15% with valid ID.

Last Friday I had the opportunity to check out HP’s latest and greatest endeavor in NYC.
As many of you already know the upcoming Sex and the City 2 movie showcased many of HP’s hottest products – the TouchSmart, Vivienne Tam edition mini, (my favorite) TM2, plus others.
HP is exhibiting these products during the month of May, on Thursday and Fridays between noon and 5pm, at the J&R Store on 15 Park Row (by Wall St). If you’re interested in learning more about the products that will be seen in the movie or just want to walk down their cool Sex and the city runway, then head on down and check them out.

Project Runway – Lifetime’s hit TV show hosted by Heidi Klum – had a nice surprise tonight. Tonight contestants were challenged with creating fabrics using HP’s TouchSmart PC. The challenge was a first of its kind and was complemented with the divine presence of the oh-so-beautiful Vivienne Tam – who works closely with HP and their beautifully designed minis (I want oneeeeeeeee). She also uses HP’s TouchSmart PC when designing her own fashion line.
Having used HP’s TouchSmart last summer, I can say that it definitely allows you to ‘do’ more in every single sense imaginable. You can squeeze, slide, pinch, fling – pretty much anything and everything. Imagine how much you could do if you tried creating your own clothes?? The patterns designed by the contestants were the basis behind their looks tonight.

I went to the Plastiki press event in Sausalito last Friday. I was truly intrigued by their initiative to sail a boat made with recycled plastic bottles and how they would power their technology so we could track them on their journey to Sydney using HP products. The room was jam packed with media internationally plus local San Francisco press. Mayor Gavin Newsom walked on stage and introduced the crew lead by David de Rothschild’s vision. Continue Reading…

This year was my first year at Macworld as a cutegeek blogger and of course Apple didn’t even have a booth…however that didn’t stop the masses to attend the show. When I first told my friends I was going I got the immediate question; “Why are you going since Apple won’t be there?” Another friend sarcastically said “What is MacWorld without Apple…just World?” I had no idea what to expect after all my pals banter…What was MacWorld without Apple? And where is Mr. Job’s?
My questions were answered as soon as I walked into the masses…Software, Games, and Accessories!

I am quite the loyal gal; in fact it took me years to bow down to HP products after bleeding the Dell blue for so long. My first gaming system back in the 80′s was the first Nintendo (yeah I saved the princess in Mario brother’s, ran my ass off on Track and Field, and vastly improved my shooting aim from Duck hunt).
I had played Wii Sports a year ago plus again at my cousins place recently and for the first time ever I got over 150 on bowling (now I am up to 200), kicked booty on virtual tennis and can box anyone out of my virtual boxing ring. After realizing I rock at the game I made it a goal to get it at some point. After 1.5 years of owning a PS3 I got a Wii as a second gaming console. It has become quite the addiction.

Hi CuteGeeks!
We are starting the new year off strong and hope you all are too! We want to introduce our first brilliant woman in technology – Ann Finnie. I met Ann Finnie through blogging, and since then she has truly become an inspiration. She is an amazing woman, who loves her job and her passion can be seen in everything that she does. She is the Worldwide Public Relations Manager for Consumer PCs and Office of the CTO, in the Personal Systems Group, for HP – and we are honored to have her featured as one of our Brilliant Women in Technology! Check out her interview!
-Can you tell us a little about yourself and your background?
I was born and raised in the heart of Silicon Valley, Sunnyvale, CA. Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak actually went to my high school, although they’re a bit older than me so I didn’t know them at that time. In fact, we’ve had several successful graduates from my high school (Homestead High School in Cupertino). Danny Gordon (think Gordon-Biersch beer) was in the marching band at the same time as me. He played the trombone and I played the trumpet.
I attended De Anza College and I graduated from the school of business at San Jose State.
