Facing new challenges everyday

Today I checked some charting solutions that works with JSF after read this post on Brazilian JSF UG, one of then is iLog charts, this chart solution is very cool, but I need more time to know if this solution can be used on the project that I’m working right now.
Actually I’m working on another chart solution called ChartCreator, I’m very happy this component, I could implement many features in this component and solve many issues on costumers applications.
A set o examples can be found here. Click and enjoy!

My current notebook doesn’t fit my needs anymore, now I’m trying to find a cheap notebook that can help me in my development tasks, like create application frontends for FAST ESP or databases using Eclipse and JSF.

Unfortunately, the most powerful notebooks are very expensive in Brazil since most notebooks needs to be imported from US and other countries, the final price of each notebook is increased a lot, a US$ 1.999 notebook in US cost R$ 6.000 in Brazil, sad but true.

In the meantime, I’ll try to keep studying RoR, JSF and all .NET related stuff in my old and slow notebook.
