“On one level, ACMI’s latest exhibition Game Masters is an important step towards video games receiving proper recognition as an important and valid form of art. On another, it’s pretty much THE GREATEST ARCADE EVER.” Time Out Melbourne 

“There’s no doubt that Game Masters is about as good as an exhibition of videogames could presently hope to be. It is among the best—if not the best—of its kind.” Crikey

The ACMI-curated exhibition includes a selection of classic arcade games from the 1970s and 80s acquired especially for the exhibition and playable in their original form. The arcades spotlight the pioneering designers of the era, such as the creators of Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong, Asteroids and Defender. Game Masters celebrates leading contemporary designers such as those behind Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Mario Bros, The Legend of Zelda, METAL GEAR SOLID, Psychonauts, World of Warcraft, SimCity, Populous and Disney’s Epic Mickey. Independent designers are featured too, with games such as PaRappa the Rapper, Minecraft, Machinarium, Braid, Flight Control, Fruit Ninja and Angry Birds on display in the gallery.

A major component of the show is a social gaming area which includes popular music titles such as SingStar, Rock Band and a spectacular multiplayer dance stage for a large-scale version of Dance Central 2, as well as unique experiences such as an immersive 3D version of Tetsuya Mizuguchi’s acclaimed Child of Eden.

The Melbourne Winter Masterpieces exhibition will travel to New Zealand and opens at Wellington’s Te Papa in December.

Looking for a Gaming Edge?

Look no further than the new BenQ RL2450H

Sydney Australia, October 2012:  LED monitor expert, BenQ will unleash its latest assault weapon to Australian Gamers this month with the launch of the RL2450H professional gaming monitor.

The BenQ RL2450H gaming monitor was co-developed by ZOWIE GEAR – an innovative manufacturer of high-end professional gaming gears, along with STARTALE, a world-class StarCraft 2 professional gaming team currently sponsored by BenQ.

Internationally, BenQ’s RL monitors have received recognition in the gaming fraternity for their outstanding design, capabilities and performance targeting gamers who are looking for added viewing flexibility and comfort on top of an unprecedented level of control, accuracy and enjoyment.

Featuring 16:9 Full HD LED screen with 2ms GtG response time, Black eQualizer, RTS Gaming Mode, Display Mode and Smart Scaling, the RL2450H is 24” in size and can accommodate various viewing height and angles thanks to the height Adjustment Stand (HAS) design.

Joining BenQ’s flagship professional gaming monitor, the XL2420T, which has a well-earned reputation the world over as being the supreme monitor – the chosen one – for gamers, it should be noted the RL2450H is not as well featured as the XL, and this is reflected in its price tag of $199.00.

“The collaboration with ZOWIE GEAR and the STARTALE players offered us an elite R&D team with insider perspective on details that were essential to winning the game,” said Chung, “particularly the ability to acquire, assess and respond to information quickly.  This is the key to their success, – the RL2450H is a gaming monitor that meet gamers’ expectations, affordably,” she said.

ACRONIS NOW DELIVERS NEAR-INSTANT RECOVERY OF VMWARE VSPHERE VIRTUAL MACHINES

Latest update to Acronis vmProtect introduces faster, cost effective,

complete disaster recovery from cloud or any storage location

Sydney, 10th October 2012 – Acronis, a leading provider of disaster recovery and data protection solutions for physical, virtual and cloud environments, today announced that it has significantly reduced the time required to recover virtual machines in VMware® virtual environments with the introduction of vmFlashBack™, a new feature included in the latest release of Acronis® vmProtect™. In addition, Acronis has made a secure cloud backup strategy more achievable with the inclusion of multi-destination staging.

The new vmFlashBack™ feature reduces downtime by offering a fast, simple restore option that accelerates recovery times. This new technology copies only those data blocks that have changed, allowing for recovery times of up to 100 times faster than previously achievable.

According to research conducted at World San Francisco 2012, almost 70 per cent of VMware® ESX(i) users have already, or are planning to back up their machines to the cloud*. To address this demand, Acronis has added disk-to-disk-to-cloud staging in this latest release of Acronis® vmProtect™. Administrators can now better protect data and machines by saving backup files to multiple locations – including off-premise private clouds through Acronis Online cloud.

This automated process in Acronis vmProtect allows for different schedules at different destinations, without user intervention, to more efficiently meet policy compliance and optimize the use of available bandwidth. Combined with the ability to remotely recover files from a cloud backup location through a web-based interface, Acronis vmProtect can offer the “anywhere-access” benefit of a cloud-based backup strategy to enterprises of all sizes.

“Virtual environments are at risk,” commented Dmitri Joukovski, vice president of product management at Acronis. “As the use of virtual environments to support business critical applications, and cloud-based models for delivery and collaboration expands, more businesses are playing roulette with their critical data. Acronis can support the accelerated pace of change within organizations, with the most comprehensive host and server protection for VMware environments. ”

International Paris-based fashion house Gerald Darel, recently chose Acronis vmProtect as a comprehensive virtual backup and recovery solution after a rigorous testing process. Samuel Chemouni, technical director at Gerard Darel explained: “During the testing of Acronis vmProtect, we found that the backup process only took a few clicks and was completed in less than five minutes. This was without any prior training of the team or any contact with Acronis for support. Compared to its competitors, Acronis vmProtect proved to be the easiest to use, the fastest for recovery and the most efficient solution.”

With unlimited seamless migration of workloads between virtual and physical environments, Acronis® vmProtect™ 8 represents a comprehensive host and machine backup, data migration and disaster recovery solution for the expanding number of businesses moving to a VMware® vSphere™ environment. It allows. Customers who have purchased Acronis® vmProtect™ 7 with maintenance are entitled to a free upgrade to Acronis® vmProtect™ 8.

*Survey of attendees at VMworld San Francisco, 2012 conducted Aug 26-28, 2012 by Acronis. Sample size of in person and online respondents = 279.

Lenovo Statement on PC Industry Rankings

Today, IDC reported that Lenovo has narrowed the gap with HP in the global PC industry share rankings to 0.2%, while Gartner reported Lenovo has now taken the lead in worldwide PC sales by a margin of 0.2%. The difference between IDC and Gartner numbers is largely based on how the two firms calculate numbers for certain products (specifically the inclusion of workstations).

The preliminary IDC data shows Lenovo achieving record market share of approximately 15.7% and record quarterly shipment volume of approximately 13.8 million units, while Gartner’s also preliminary reported Lenovo had a market share of 15.7% and shipments of 13.8 million units, ahead of HP who came in at 15.5%. This represents 10.2% year on year growth for Lenovo by IDC’s estimates and 9.8% year on year growth, according to Gartner. Following 3 years as the fastest-growing PC maker among the world’s top vendors and 14 quarters outpacing the overall market (according to IDC), the data demonstrates continued momentum for Lenovo.

The following statement is attributable to Lenovo Chairman and CEO Yuanqing Yang:

“Analyst figures released today reaffirm that Lenovo has continued momentum in the marketplace and that our formula for success – a clear strategy, innovative products, great execution and a strong, diverse global team – continues to work.  We know the PC market is highly competitive, but also firmly believe there is room for continued profitable growth in this space.

Becoming the clear leader in global PC share of course remains one of Lenovo’s aspirations, but it also only represents one more milestone in our journey as a company and our mission to become the leader in the PC+ era.  This includes PCs, tablets, smart phone, smart TV, cloud and enterprise computing.  Our goal is to make Lenovo not only a leading PC+ brand, but also one of the most respected companies in the world.

We are setting our sights on delivering long term, profitable growth, while leading the way forward into the PC+ era. To achieve this, we have a clear strategy and we are step by step building a company that is both globally connected and fully localised. We are establishing even deeper roots in each major market around the world. In addition to localised sales and distribution teams in major markets, we are establishing an even stronger manufacturing footprint; investing in R&D; and ensuring that top local talents are in place to build a strong competitive advantage and a winning business. This global reach with local excellence sees us creating a “global local” company and positions us to more deeply implement our Protect and Attack strategy, the foundation for our long term success.

Today’s numbers are of course encouraging, and Lenovo will continue to execute our strategy, deliver great new products, and grow our business around the world so we can achieve all of our goals over time.”
