Lenovo's IdealPad Yoga 13 and Yoga 11


Yoga is not only for the health conscious world wide, it is also coming to a nearby PC Store.
Lenovo unvieled the latest of their products to hit the US Consumers anytime soon. They are (http://www.eweek.com/mobile/lenovo-tablets-ultrabooks-laptops-are-all-about-windows-8/),
  • The IdeaPad Yoga 13 (Windows 8 Pro)
  • Yoga 11 (Windows RT)
  • ThinkPad Twist
  • IdeaLab Lynx
The Yoga products 11 and 13 can open 360 degrees, Here is a copied schematic picture of the possible openings from the eWeek site(http://www.eweek.com/mobile/lenovos-windows-8-lineup-could-help-it-reach-top-pc-spot/). Is it 360 degs or a little less, I wonder.


The touch-centric Windows 8 a game changer is behind all these new products. Wall Street talking heads say Microsoft's Windows 8 will not help the bottom line because of PC problems. We just have to wait and see.

I close this post with a prayer to Patanajali who placed Yoga on an easy to access format.

Yogena cittasya padena vacam |
malam sarirasya ca vaidyakena |
yopakarottam pravaram muninam |
patanjalim pranajaliranato'smi|
Om Shanti,Shanti, Shantihi.
