Also Coke Zero costs more money than regular Coca Cola in China (since sugar is cheaper) which probably hurts sales too.
Anyways combined with the fact that ASUS is based in Taiwan the Coke Zeros seen here are almost assuredly Taiwanese Coke Zero.]]>Sep 12th 2009 7:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/Sep 12th 2009 10:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/
Actually, how soft drinks like Coke and Pepsi taste in different countries does vary, because depending on what's most cost effective in the region each plant is, it's quite common to use different mixes to make the "same" drink. Some plants use high-fructose corn syrup (U.S. in particular), while others use cane sugar glucose or fructose (Mexico and Canada).]]>Sep 13th 2009 3:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/Sep 13th 2009 12:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/Sep 14th 2009 9:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/Sep 12th 2009 3:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/Automated backups of desktop and laptop computers - Install the WHS connector software, and every night your computer will wake and backup
Easy restore of a computer - trash your computer? Insert a CD and reboot, select the image to restore, and your computer will be restored to that backup.
UPNP sharing of media - Load your music onto your WHS, and WMP finds all your music automatically
Able to share documents and media files remotely - I log onto my WHS server from music through a web page, and listen to my music from work
Easy to expand storage - Add a USB drive, click a button, and you have inscreased your storage for backups, and data files
Duplication of data - Duplicate data on seperate hard drives, if one goes down, you have the data duplicated.

So yes, you could probably setup a seperate computer and purchase seperate software to do all this, or you can purchase a small, more energy efficient computer shuch as a WHS with all the software setup for you. You may be able to setup a computer to do all this, but would my parents be able to (they were able to setup a WHS)?]]>Sep 12th 2009 4:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/Sep 12th 2009 4:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/

I just bought a HP home server last week (for $460), and have had one pleasant surprise after another. I highly recommend it.]]>Sep 12th 2009 8:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/
Example: My roommates wired our apartment for ethernet. :-) We have lots of digital media, and 2 xbox's running xbmc. I have a TB drive in my desktop, but that draws a couple hundred watts of electricity, and I don't want it to run all the time.

Solution: Building a NAS off of an atom 330 & Asus AT3GC-I (combo deal newegg). Putting the TB in the NAS, and letting it run 24/7 while drawing all of maybe 30 watts on peak writing.

There are only about another billion or so reasons to get a home server / NAS of sorts, just find one that applies to you.]]>Sep 13th 2009 2:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/

In case I'm wrong, it's called a size reference.
You place a common object in a photo, so that anyone can easily understand exactly how big the subject of the photo is.



As far as Taiwan != China, most Taiwanese would agree, most Chinese would disagree, and nobody else gives a shit. ]]>Sep 12th 2009 4:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/Sep 12th 2009 8:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/12/asus-ts-mini-home-server-makes-its-blurrycam-debut/
That said, as long as the US has Taiwan's back, and as long as the PRC's economy is dependent on the US economy, my point remains valid.

Nobody gives a shit.
