Think the Apple tablet sounds cool? Check out this laptop design by Orkin.

The future is here…well, not yet. But Rolltop is a pretty sweet concept, functioning as a mini-notebook, a 13″ graphics tablet, and 17″ flat screen monitor, all rolled up and ready to go.

    but will it get damaged if I try to do sun salutations on it? Kidding. Nifty. Would love to see something softer and more human-scaled than a laptop.

    I practice Yoga at home mainly for the purpose of having a relax mind and body. Stress is really high on our workplace and yoga helps me relax.

    Many yoga classes are out there, and you may be turned off if you pick one that does not suit your personality and state of physical fitness. For most beginners, a hatha or vinyasa class will be most appropriate, depending on whether you want a slow or fast-paced class. These are basic styles, and you can always try something fancier later.

    it is easy to learn Yoga although it seems difficult at first try. I practice Yoga mainly for relaxation and for improving my blood circulation.
