HP LaserJet 1200 Review

Tue, Nov 11, 2008

0 Comments

HP LaserJet 1200, a BW laser printer with a 1200 x 1200 dpi and the best point is that it can really work. The laserjet 1200 printer by HP is making the right kind of waves since its launch. It works for a 1200n Ethernet connection and comes with the facility of scan extension.

If you have to print a lot of letters, manuals and documentation, this is the right choice for you. Also, the price quoted by HP is way too reasonable. The bottleneck is that the printer works extremely slow when made to churn out sophisticated graphics. We are talking of the PostScript mode. It works perfectly though in the PCL mode. Hence it is advisable to use it with the Ghostscript driver like the pxlmono or hpjis.

“1200” uses PostScript effectively for all the fundamental printing purpose whereas HPLIP driver is paramount for advanced functions. The paper tray is very robust and allows easy insertion.

Also parallel port connection seems to work best for it. Using it with a USB connection device seems to be a lost idea.

A typical Linux user will always boast how the printer is an able ally in tackling high-volume documentation if the texts are simple.

Luck By Chance Hindi Movie Preview

Tue, Nov 11, 2008

0 Comments

Two industry heavyweights are joining a single frame. Hrithik Roshan and Shahrukh Khan are busy shooting for a project that is bound to bring a lot of cheers from the crowd. Rekindling “Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham” flames, the industry stalwarts are all geared up shooting for “Luck by chance“. The movie Luck by chance, is being produced by Zoya Akhtar and Farhan Akhtar will be playing a lead. Zoya is looking forward to an Om Shanti Om, where she would pull a large number of stars for a song.

While Shahrukh will be playing himself, Hrithik will be portraying an actor-aspirant desperately seeking a break in the industry. Karan Johar will be taking the director’s mantle.

After “Rock On” which was released in august, “Luck by Chance” will be the second acting venture of Farhan. Unlike the image we had in mind, Farhan seems to be well adept at emoting and the various other branches of thespian-hood.

Kareena Kapoor, Rani Mukherjee, Juhi Chawla and Konkana Sen Sharma will be among the major chunk of stars proudly walking along the other industry behemoths for the experimental song.

Hrithik Roshan has already made it clear that the audience would see less of the dancer in him.

Luck by chance also seems a re-invitational to the world of Karan Johar- Shahrukh Khan combination. In fact, the masala associated with these two might just be even more pronounced as Shahrukh is playing himself.

Here is wishing that “Luck By Chance” is not deserted by luck at the box office by any chance.

Main Aur Mrs. Khanna Hindi Movie Preview

Tue, Nov 11, 2008

0 Comments

Main aur Mrs. Khanna plans to bring few industry behemoths into a single frame. The movie is being much raved about and rightly so. After all, Salman Khan is still a great crowd puller and Kareena Kapoor can add a different dimension to audience- inflow.

The movie is expected to release coming February 20, 2009 and it is going to be produced by Ronnie Screwvala in tandem with Sohail Khan. It would be produced under the banner of UTV pictures.

Salman Khan will be playing the role of Mr. Khanna and Kareena will be playing her spouse. (This would be the first time that they would essay this particular chemistry). Preity Zinta will be seen in an item number.

Though sources have simply abstained from revealing much till now, grapevine is abuzz with reports that Shahrukh khan, Priyanka Chopra and Deepika padukone will be seen in delightful cameos.

March 19th 2008, was chosen as the auspicious day for beginning the shooting. The Movie was initially shot at Film city and later the crew packed off for the picturesque locales of Australia. Melbourne and Sydney have ruled the roost as shooting venue and a scene accorded to the climax was even shot at the Sydney Airport.

A year ago, Sohail Khan had typically announced how she had chosen Lara Dutta for the role of the female protagonist. This was changed later owing to date problems and hence Kareena jumped into the film. Its amazing how the lesser known heroines have date crunches and the queen bees find time for the projects.

Blue Hindi Movie Preview - Akshay Kumar Katrina Kaif

Mon, Nov 10, 2008

0 Comments

Akshay Kumar is surely giving Shahrukh a run for his money. Just when all thought there could never be a soul within sniffing distance of Khanbhai, Akshay has come close to the crown prince’s tag.

Akshay Kumar is coming all out for his next project Blue. The movie Blue, will also be starring Sanjay Dutt, Lara Dutta, Zayed Khan, and Katrina Kaif. Each of them is shooting fairly strenuously as the project has already been floored.

The movie will be based on the theme of Shipwreck and treasure, thus most of the shooting will take place under water. All the actors have been methodically trained in scuba diving in Bangkok.

Lara Dutta is working out to push through the flab meter. She is reportedly working extremely hard for this venture and will sport a bikini. Now, the last statement must have let the oglers begin to weave a lot of imagination. For all those who remember her sporting a bikini earlier, this will be an all new avatar. Lara has also learnt all the swimming tricks, something that she was hardly acquainted with earlier.

Aarav is the reel name which Akshaye will be keeping in the movie; this is quite a departure from the garish Bacchhan Pande.

Akshay kumar is an attested deep sea diver. His list of injuries continues though. He had been given a shot where he was to be at a depth of 75 feet and was to be infested by 30 sharks. Unfortunately he got stuck with the shipwreck and began to bleed.

A.R. Rehman will be directing the music for the movie.
