Zonbu, A New Computing Approach or Magic


Last October Popular Mechanics had a blurb on the $99.00 computer with a monthly fee of $13.00 per month. I looked up Zonbu today to see how they were faring. They appear to be operating under a bit different scenario now.

Zonbu is both an operating system and a concept. You can get Zonbu (a linux OS) for free along with upto 250mb of online storage. You can download it to your computer and run their online (cloud) applications. Their premier service gives you 50GB of online service for $15.00 per month. They provide the OS, the applications and the storage. They claim you now avoid all the hassles of upgrading (which can be a trial). They claim you can avoid viruses which target Windows OS. You have online data storage which is supposedly impervious to data loss. You can access your data from any online source. It is an interesting concept. You can buy computers from them with the OS preinstalled. I have reservations but you may want to check out their site, it makes for interesting reading. Zonbu This was not a paid blog.

The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
