Is a really simple extension of virtualization and I think this is going to be the basis on which storage and technology will develop. Abstracting the physical has always been of particular interest to me, so, this will be maintained. I’m also not giving up on core products. Related articles by Zemanta. June 30, 2009.

Nexus 10 Impressions (Video). November 16, 2012. I just ripped through some brief interface shots here and compiled it all together.
