Z68, Newer Better Faster


Not only does the Z68 platform combine the advantages both the P67 and H67 platform together into one, GIGABYTE has also included some unique Z68 only features on our motherboards including Intel Smart Response (enabled by GIGABYTE’s EZ Smart Response and onboard mSATA slot options) Lucid Virtue Switchable Graphics and TouchBIOS that truly make it a step above P67 and H67.

Attack of the Clones

Not content in just copying a feature we launched several months ago, one of our competitors couldn't even be bothered to do their own marketing materials for the feature they copied. 

Notice a difference between these 2 charts?








I seriously wonder what is taught in marketing classes here in Taiwan. I think you can get a marketing degree for taking one 5 minute class entitled, "See Something  Successful, Just Copy It"

Eat or Be Eaten




This caterpillar was having a really bad day. A giant wasp was eating chunks out of it's side as it was trying to crawl away on the sidewalk in front of my office.

Brands Matter

Working for a Taiwanese tech company, I am constantly reminded of the importance of branding. In Asia, copying a sucessful brand is an excepted practice, with none of the same legal rammifications as in the West. In fact, you know you are a market leader when your competitors start copying your branding efforts.

Creepy Baby

Not quite sure why this baby on this MRT ad freaks me out. It just does.

The Glove


Saw this ad on the MRT today. It's a maxi pad ad with a woman about to go to bed with a white baseball glove. I guess it's for those really heavy flo nights.
