Think IBM-Lenovo


All of you must be aware that IBM has given itz "Thinkpad" and "Thinkcenter" brands to Lenovo.....
IBM says in itz website
IBM:::Lenovo has the leading position in the fastest growing market in the world. Their acquisition of IBM's PC business makes them the third largest PC supplier in the world. In addition, the people of ThinkPad notebooks and ThinkCentre desktops are now part of the Lenovo team -- the award-winning engineers, the manufacturing teams, the sales representatives, the business partners. In short, the people you know. The ones you count on.

So wht does it mean? May be Lenovo has become the third largest PC supplier in the world, however acquisition of IBM's PC by Lenovo may hit IBM in the long term.....

So How?

People who believed in the brand of PCs by IBM will move to some other brands like HP Compaq or Toshiba or Dell......This will in turn decrease the consumer base of IBM and also Lenovo.....Since the consumers have a percetion that since Lenovo is a Chinese Brand it may decrease the quality of the products of PC parts to maximise on the profit......this aquisition may hit other IBM & Lenovo products as the consumers may stop believing in IBM and may not trust Lenovo completely....

The final outcome of the aquisition of IBM by Lenovo can only written with conviction after one or two fiscal years......

A girl asked a guy if he thought she was pretty. He said, "No." She asked him if he would want to be with her forever, and he said, "No." She then asked him if she were to leave would he cry, and once again he replied, "No." She had heard enough. As she walked away, tears streaming down her face the boy grabbed her arm and said, "You're not pretty you're beautiful. I don't want to be with you forever, I NEED to be with you forever. And I wouldn't cry if you walked away -- I would die."

Two Species of Human Beings


There are two species of Human Beings according to a recent survey.

You don't believe this right? Well the species are--Simple Human Beings and the Terrorists.....Simple Human beings is the Species who like peace and harmony and strive to make gud to this world and the Other Species Terrorists gets enjoyment from the Blood of the Other half of the Genre....

The recent attack at the Sankat Mochan Temple at Varanasi,India shows how much they enjoy the blood of the innocent people..... How on the earth they can kill other people to show their own stupid useless anger.....

The Terrorists have been killing innocents to prove their point time and again...if u remember the serial bOMb blasts in delhi before diwali is a burning example.......wht do the terrorists think they will achieve in killing people.....These are the acts of coward people disguised as braveness(stupid thinking)......

The modus operandi of the terrorists has always been luring young people who want fast money or they have some kind of grievences against their own Govt.

well Before writing more about this newly Discovered Species I will do a bit of research(not tht Hi-Fi) one and post in my upcoming articles

New Marketing Strategy


Can u seethe Hoarding?

Marketing- The Buzz world in the corporate world. You must have seen all types of Marketing Strategies being used by different companies to attract the consumer base and also to market their products.

The Marketing Department of a particular organization mainly use the Mass Media for their marketing strategies.

However, today as i was coming from the office i saw a new Marketing Strategy. It was a hoarding on the back of an elephant in the city like Delhi. Can u Imagine? Though very interesting. I will try to use the same if it doesn't look funny in my organisation. Check out the picture for that.

But does these type pf marketing helps.Surely it helps in a big City like delhi where it is really hard to see an elephant on the road.

So how does it help?....when people see such a huge animal on the road they get to see the Hoarding though not intentionally,and they come to know about the particular product.It helps the elephant also as it gets free food from the people surrounding it.

Good or Evil



In black you can read the word GOOD, in white the word EVIL (inside each black letter is a white letter). It's all very filosophical too, because it visualises the concept that good can't exist whithout evil (or the absence of good is evil ).

BUDGET-2006 DEMYSTIFIED


I am not a economist or The Finance Minister who can find out all the Flaws or analyse the complete structure of India’s Economic Budget-2006. Well in this article, I will write down the ups and downs of the budget for me.

Every year the Budget is awaited for with lots of anticipation. This year Finance Minister P.Chidambaram declared the budget for India for the Fiscal Year 2006-07. Though this budget is an average budget with a high anticipation to take India’s GDP growth to 10%, it makes a hole in the pockets of the Common Man or the Middle Class to some extent.

1) The Service Tax has been increased from 10% to 12%--- Well that directly means whatever services I am going to take, I will have to pay extra. The Biggest downside is that I will have to shell out more money to recharge my cell phone. When BSNL is launching IndiaOne plan this is a bolt from the blue for the middle class. I was rejoicing that I will be able to call all my relatives at just Rs1 per min but alas. Now even I go to watch a movie in my fav theatre PVR I will have to spend more for a single ticket, and keeping in mind the cost of the ticket is already sky-rocketing with a single ticket costing Rs.150. And also I have to pay more to withdraw from an ATM other than my Bank. Thanks FM!!!!!

2) All important Finished goods to cost more----Well I was planning to by an I-Pod. Now even if I go ahead to buy that I think I have to pay around Rs1500 more which will take the cost to around Rs16000. Even the cost of imported cell-phones will increase and thanks now I can sell out my phone and I will get a better price however again I have to shell out more money to buy a new one. Oh!!! A Vicious Circle again.

3) Duty on Packaged Software Increased----If I want to buy some Good software now then I have to search Pallika Bazaar or Nehru Place for the Pirated ones, coz the prices of Original software are already high and adding increased Duty on it will make them beyond reach.
