Steve Jobs and His Dad He Never Met


Back in 2005, a man named Mr. Abdulfattah Jandali found out that his son was the most prestigous businessman in the world; Steve Jobs. Besides a couple of e-mails and an iPhone 4, he has nothing to remember his son by. The short series of e-mails that Mr. Jandali had sent to him were nothing more than saying "Happy Birthday" or "I hope your health gets better". Mr. Jandali says all he got in return was one single e-mail saying "Thank You". That's all the communication that was ever between them. There are rumors that they were suposed to meet but they never got to. In my own personal opinion, this is very sad but at least Mr. Jandali tried to reach out to Steve Jobs. I didn't seem like Steve wanted anything to do with him. Who would have thought that a general manager of a casion in Reno can give birth to a billion dollar business man.

Tech Time with Royce Taylor

Hey everybody, this is Royce here giving you a bit of a history lesson. Now, if you didn’t already know HD television sets appeared on the scene in 1998, however, there was no medium with the storage required to either record or play HD video. After a joint venture between multiple companies, Blu-ray was born. Using a short wavelength blue laser to read and write data, this laser allows for over five times the data capacity on a single layer than a DVD. This allows a single layer Blu-ray disc to allow room for 25GB of information. Furthermore, continuing advancement allows for up to 400GB of information with work underway on a Blu-ray disc that can store up to a terabyte of data. The huge storage capabilities and major film studio support allowed Blu-ray to surpass HD DVD in the format ware. As the only HD optimal disc available after HD DVD’s demise, it is no question that Blu-ray will be around for a long time. In conclusion, engineers’ ability to continually increase the Blu-ray discs storage ability will allow Blu-ray to have an unpredictably long life.
