So I discovered something this weekend in my testing. The new Samsung Series 9 had a pathetic battery life, below average. I was seeing over 6 hours out of the ASUS and near 7. On the Samsung was only seeing around 4 and half. They say its supposed to be closer to 7 hours...but they are way off.

Asus Zenbook or Samsung Series 9 (2012) -
Asus Zenbook or Samsung Series 9 (2012)That is actually incorrect the ASUS UX31 is non-upgradeable, unless you have a soldering iron :) Which I would imagine voids the warranty.

Asus Zenbook or Samsung Series 9 (2012)Ya so that is interesting thing, I have discovered so far... The ASUS UX31 doesnt support 5Ghz Wireless N, it only supports the 2.4Ghz version. Where as the Samsung Series 9 (2012) version does. But I also heard that the due to the case they are having Wireless problems.

Asus Zenbook or Samsung Series 9 (2012)Interesting thought for sure. I wonder if wpf will run on 1.4k of ram. And just think we were never to go beyond 640kb of Ram.

Asus Zenbook or Samsung Series 9 (2012)So I bought a UX31e Zenbook that has an i7, 256GB Drive but only 4GB of Ram. It makes me wonder is 4GB of ram really enough? While in the return period I started to look at the new 2012 version of the Samsung Series 9. You can upgrade it to 8GB of RAM but limited to an i5 with 128GB drive...has some other nice specs. Has the same resolution as the Zenbook. So what are other folks thoughts on the two?

Satellites collide in spaceMaybe they should contact that company Waste Management...and better yet why aren't there any environmental groups in an uproar because of space junk... sorta like save the planet, but instead save space... ooo the government can come up with a committee spend billions... but in reality, it was probably a Russian satellite that was trying to take out an American spy satellite.
