The ExoPC Slate had created a lot of buzz around itself most of which was due to the unique ExoPC UI Layer that was specially made to undo many of the Windows 7 operating system’s touchscreen woes. What it offers are a series of circular rows a gentle tap on each of which will be enough to launch an application, something that can be termed a grand evolution over an operating system that is believed to be more comfortable dealing with the conventional double clicks. And the good thing is, the Slate is now under the FCC scanner, which can be an indication of it entering the US retail scene sometime soon.

With a keen interest in tech, I make it a point to keep myself updated on the latest developments in technology and gadgets. That includes smartphones or tablet devices but stretches to even AI and self-driven automobiles, the latter being my latest fad. Besides writing, I like watching videos, reading, listening to music, or experimenting with different recipes. The motion picture is another aspect that interests me a lot, and I'll likely make a film sometime in the future.
