ASUS EeeBook X205TA - I am loving it

Two weeks before, my laptop was behaving crazy and was displaying all multi-colors. When I took it for repair, it was out of warranty and hence I paid Rs.1000 for service and Rs.5000 for LCD replacement. My battery back-up is also not good these days. It hardly stays for 5 minutes. It has been 2 years I purchased this laptop and it’s time to buy a new one. I researched a lot for these past 2 weeks and found that ASUS EeeBook X205TA is very good and would adopt my lifestyle.

Why ASUS?
As the ASUS company tag line says “Inspiring Innovation. Persistent Perfection”, all the ASUS products like mobile phones, desktops and laptops has innovation in it. The Chinese company are the best in manufacturing the motherboards. Since motherboard is the heart of a computer, it’s much essential to check the quality of the mother board. ASUS being a Chinese company would be best in manufacturing the mother board. And also, ASUS is the world's fifth-largest vendor after HP, Lenovo, Dell and Acer.

Windows 8.1 Operating System with Microsoft Office 365:


ASUS EeeBook X205TA offers the full version of Microsoft Office 365 with one year subscription. It almost covers all the essential things like Word, Excel, Powerpoint and outlook that every software techie would be looking for. Here is the amazing and interesting news - ASUS EeeBook X205TA offers with 1 TB of online cloud storage. 

Asus WebStorage:
At times, I will not be able to carry my laptop, but would be in position to access the files. This Asus WebStorage helps me to sync all my files, so that I can easily access it from anywhere. It offers 2 years of  500 GB web storage absolutely free!!!

Portable and Weight Less:



I am an avid Trekker and love to explore more places. But I face lot of challenges when I go for a 3-4 day trekking. Technology has become so part of my life, that I can’t stay without Gadgets without a day. Though iPod and mobile are good to read at some extent, my eyes get strained while reading it in small screens. That's why I prefer a large screen to read and use. Already I would be carrying heavy luggage like 3 liter of water bottles, tent and back pack, so its a poor idea to carry laptop during travel.

Astonishingly the weight of ASUS EeeBook X205TA is less than 1 KG and only 17.5mm thickness. It’s easy to carry in shoulder bag. Even the power adapter is very compact, that I can carry it in my pocket.

Very Good Back-up:
When I go for trekking in dense forest, there is no option to charge the laptop. Hence, I always look for an excellent backup. The ASUS EeeBook X205TA comes with two cell battery and can provide up to 12 hours of battery life.
Wow!!! That’s more than enough to browse all my emails and files before I got for sleep. It comes with VGA Web Camera, which would help me to connect through skype wtih all my friends and family when I am out of city



Built-in Speakers:
The ASUS EeeBook X205TA has Built-in Speakers and hence it would be helpful in playing music during campfire.

QUAD- CORE processes: 

QUAD Core processor which means it has 4 processing cores in a single chip.In layman terms, it has  four separate processors, which would help a lot during multi-tasking.

Service Centers in over 80 cities:
The service centers are over 80 cities. So no issues, in case of any problems too

Three reasons to choose ASUS EeeBook X205TA. Its versatile, simple and powerful.

A Cute proposal on Valentine's day

A Cute proposal on Valentine's day
February 14th 
12.00 A.M
“Hi Karthick, Good morning. I am damn crazy about you. Can we meet sometime tomorrow?.” I called him anonymously.
I know for his attitude, he never considers even if someone proposes him directly. Is he going to take the blank call seriously?
“Well, thank you, But I have lots of work tomorrow and can’t meet you. Take care bye” He replied.
Beep. Beep. Beep.!!!
The call got disconnected. I am confident that, he will accept my love before the end of Valentine ’s day, because I had planned so well. The next day morning as soon as he got up, I knew he would come straight to the wash-basin to wash his face and brush his teeth. So, I had written “LUV You :) ” with close-up paste on the mirror.

Karthick sister is my close friend and hence staying at his home was an easy task for me. As expected, Karthick ignored the writing on the mirrors concluding that one of his family members is playing pranks with him on Valentine’s day. His parents have gone out to the temple and only his sister and I were at home. I prepared a coffee with a heart art and offered him. He wished good morning, got engrossed into newspaper and started drinking the coffee without observing my coffee art.

PLAN 2 FAILED!!!
But I had another chance, I have written “LUV You :) ” at the bottom of the cup. Plan 3 too got failed, since he left a few of the coffee drops in the cup :(
I am sure Plan 4 will succeed. He got ready to office and walked towards his bike. He observed a greeting card and a gift box placed on his bike seat. He opened the gift box and saw 2 platinum rings. A person who is playing pranks will not be spending so much. He felt something was serious and called his sister to enquire about the parcel. We both acted, as if we are unaware of it.

If Karthick gets doubt on me, I would consider myself lucky. But its human tendency to ignore the things which is near to us, and search something that don’t exist. Karthick did the same, he did not doubt me. He took out his mobile and scrutinized his call logs. I called him from a private number, how would he find the details of the call that he received at 12.00. With puzzled look, he kick started his bike and rushed to the office.

Before 6 Years.
“Hey Deeps, our seniors are looking for one person who is very good at dancing and I suggested your name since you were one among the top 10 contestants in the "Dance Machi Dance" show,” Evelyn said.
I gave her a bright close-up smile and went to my college auditorium, where they were practicing. A group of 3 guys and 2 girls were doing warm-up exercises. All of a sudden I was little nervous because all of them were my super-seniors. I snail paced towards the stage and among the three, one guy's dance style glued my eyes. I was immersed in his movements and did not realise the steps. My legs fumbled, slipped and fell on the floor. That’s is when I caught my seniors' attention and they came towards me for help.
After the help, Karthick (yeah, the guy whom I admired a lot) came straight to the point, “We have inter-College Cultural Fest in 10 days. With this leg, will you be able to dance.”
I was shocked, yet loved his attitude. On hearing my yes, he requested other to start the practice and narrated his conditions to me, “Well, we would be practicing day and night. I need your complete dedication for these ten days. Day scholar or hostel?” He did not wait for my answer. But continued, “If day’s scholar, please get a permission from our chairman to stay in the hostel for these 10 days. Past 3 years, we bag the prize for dance competitions and this year I want the same to happen”. 
I shook my head and then he played a song and requested me to choreograph and dance for it immediately. When my mind struck that he was keeping an audition for me, I told him, “I have been the top 10 in Dance Machi Dance show”
“So what? You did not win the title right? Every dance has its own style, and I want to check whether you are able to perform this dance style” 
What an attitude!!! I cleared the audition, but without my mind's knowledge my heart started developing a crush on him. He was my pair in the dance and I was pampered a lot, since I was the only junior in their gang.It was for a fusion of 5 songs and one of the song was for “Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega” 

Karthick started liking after seeing my dance styles and dedication. He was in the final year and hence in 4 months, he would be completing the college. I thought of proposing on the last day but I felt I was too young to do. May be I must finish college. I told myself. After that Kartick left the city for his higher education and no contacts between us.

I willingly became friend with Karthick’s sister. Every month Karthick’s mom used to travel to Tiruvannamalai temple (which is 250 kms from Chennai) to circumnavigate. I followed her 2 months and for the 3rd visit, she invited me and thus I become one of the family members.

I know Karthick would be expecting a call from me(that anonymous call) and hence I called him once he reached office.
“Hi Karthick, it’s me again. Hope, you are ready to meet now?”
“Hmm, tell me where I should meet you”
“VGP Golden beach. Please come before the Sunset.”

5.00 P.M,
VGP Golden beach,

As soon as he reached the beach, a guys of 15 people started to perform flash mob. After 5 minutes, the song "Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega" played and I entered with the same dance slow and romantic movements which I danced with Karthick before many years in our college. The sun was about to set and the song was about to get over. I observed karthick going down with a bent knee and he took my hand and slid a ring on my finger and asked, “Will you marry me?”

Before I could recover from the shock, he continued, “I was in love with you, the moment I saw you for the first time in the college. And after that, it was all my plan. I willingly excluded one of my seniors from the dance so that I can include you in my dance group. Rest all you know.”
“So, you know that I am following you for past 6 years.” He smiled sheepishly and said, “And I enjoyed every bit of it”
“You” I took my hand to give him a punch and he pulled me closer. Romance Filled the air
