Acer Aspire V3 coming to Japan for $1,100 with right processor, wrong ppi
Want a 2.1GHz Ivy Bridge Core i7 in your next media laptop? Mmm, yes please. And a 1080p LED backlit display to devour movies on? Well, of course. Then keep looking, because the Acer Aspire V3 maxes out at just 1366 x 768 -- despite being equipped with a Blu-ray spinner and Dolby Theater v4, and also despite the eye-popping competition. Then again, at 15.6-inches that resolution might not be a total deal-breaker, plus our hands-on taster at CeBIT (before we even knew about the Ivy Bridge internals) wasn't totally unpleasant. The HD 4000 graphics should give you the odd gaming snack, even if not a full meal, while a 750GB HDD, up to 8GB RAM and a ton of I/O options take care of the back room. The V3 will hit Japanese shelves on April 29th for around $1,100 -- but watch out for a 17-incher too (which will do 1080p) plus cheaper Core i5 variants coming later.

Business-minded HP 'Slate 8' tablet surfaces in leaked image
This one is still very much unconfirmed, but a "trusted source" recently provided Neowin.net with the image you see above, which purports to be a mockup of a forthcoming business-minded tablet from HP dubbed the Slate 8. That's obviously a Windows 8 tablet and, if the details are to be believed, you can expect a 10.1-inch display, eight to ten hours of battery life, optional pen-based input, a docking station of some sort, an outdoor viewing option and a number of business-friendly security measures -- all in a package that's 9.2mm thick and about 1.5 pounds. Adding some weight to leak is ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley, who hasn't been able to confirm it outright, but says that after a bit of investigation she is "inclined to believe this is a real mock-up and is part of HP's line up of business desktops and laptops it will be touting this year."

Octomom Offered Free Blowouts From Hairdresser Amid Welfare Backlash
Brazilian Blowout, the company behind the hairstyling Octomom recently spent hundreds of dollars on while on welfare, is apparently as mortified by her antics as everyone else, and offering to make it right with free blowouts from now on.
The company wants to reimburse Nadya Suleman the entire cost of her recent blowouts - plus other hair treatments - that she spent $520 on.
While under investigation by DCFS for horrific living conditions, natch.
Such reckless spending and inability to earn enough money to take care of her offspring has some wondering if Octomom should lose her kids.
With that in mind, Brazilian Blowout wants to help a girl out.
CEO Mike Brady says, "We want to make sure California taxpayers' money is not going to anything other than taking care of [Nadya Suleman's] kids. We don't want to see those children miss out on anything at the cost of a Brazilian Blowout."
BB also wants to give Octomom free blowouts and cover the cost of a sitter while the mother of 14 is gets primped. They feel so bad about taking her money, they're even offering to fix her toilet, which might allow her kids to drop a D inside.
The stuff of dreams, right there.
Should Octo lose her kids?
