Guys,

The 7" Asus Eee Pc can run sketchup! - http://asuseeehacks.blogspot.com/200...us-eee-pc.html

Hello Designers! I'm calling you!

Do you want to study 3D modeling and rendering for free? Well... Here is your chance to learn! We need 3-5 guys who are interested in this field. Willing to learn so that they could stretch their experience in different things such as 3D design and rendering. You can add this to your skillsets.

So who? Just interested people who want to learn 3D!
Where exactly can we meet? Will be posted soon since that depends on your location and that of the instructors.

When do we meet for class? Every Saturday!
What time? Will be posted soon as well...
How much? ITS FREE!

Dont miss this chance of learning new stuff...

So are you in?

For details, PM architect

Ask ko lang kung meron pa ulit nitong 3D Lessons...Im very much interested. Thanks

*jsalcedo,

Drey is the one coordinating the sessions with the instructor. If there are enough interested students, I don't see any reason why sessions can't be held.

Just pm drey.

Gusto ko sanang matuto din... kaya lang nandito pa ako sa labas eh... Marunong ako ng CAD pero mas gusto ko ng 3D.... gumagamit din ba kayo ng ProE?

gamit po namin is 3dsmax9. as of now, yun pa lang po ang gamit parin namin. medyo madalang na po yung classes namin since nagsimula ang sembreak.

In due time, like anything electronic, price will definitely go down. But for now, it is in short supply because of the flash shortage.

Also, the Eee PC uses an old Celeron M ULV processor that Intel has reportedly stopped manufacturing. In fact, Asus has already announced next generation models using newer Intel chips. However the caveat is that these newer Intel chips might not be ready until the 2nd half of 2008, notwithstanding Asus' announcement that the new models will be available Apr 2008. It has previously announced the Eee PC back in June this year and repeatedly postponed the actual launch until mid-October.

Since Asus has an established bestsellers on their hands, with projected sales for next year reaching as high as six million units, it may yet continue to manufacture the same models as long as Intel can produce the CPU. After all, Intel would find it difficult to turn down an order for six million processors.

But generally, the advice for notebooks/PCs is buy when you need. There will always be a better, faster, more powerful unit available within a week's time. That, or the same model will be become cheaper within a month or so.

That said, Everex is due to release its subnotebook early next month. It is currently being sold under the Packard Bell brand in Europe.

*Zdre-Wulf, just pm drey to find out if there are any scheduled lessons.

I know this might not help in upgrading your skills in 3D Modelling but in case the need arises and you need your 3D Models in a jiffy and/or you need to recreate legacy parts from older car models reverse engineering is the way to go. Anyway, you can still tweak the resulting model in 3DSMax to suit your needs and bring out your creativity. The latest version of this software is ver. 10 but I'm sure it would be suitable enough for most basic rapid prototyping needs. Furthermore, it doesn't have a steep learning curve so you can easily get up to speed.

Since this forum was also created to support the growth of our industries in mind I suggest that those of you planning to buy a laptop/notebook computer visit one locally grown company building and designing their own laptops. They might have a model that would suit your needs. IMO, if there really isn't much of a gap between the price and quality/features of our locally made products vis-a-vis imported ones, I'd rather buy our own to create more employment for our countrymen, upgrade our engineering capability and to help the growth of our economy Here's the company's website
