Customised gadgets for this CEO

GIZMOGEEK

For Devita Saraf, carrying a large number of gadgets around comes with the burden of carrying an equivalent number of chargers. As the CEO of Vu Technologies and executive director of Zenith Computers, Saraf has the means to customise her gadgets, like getting a laptop crafted in pink gold.

How many gadgets do you carry?

Around four, that include a Zenith Presidio laptop, BlackBerry Pearl, Apple iPod Nano, MyVu personal video viewer, along with a variety of chargers.

Which is your favourite gadget?

Since customisation is the in thing, my Zenith Director laptop that was created out of pink gold tops the list. It has been customised for me.

Which application would you say is a lifesaver for executives?

A back-up software that can salvage critical database on your laptop or computer.

What gadget is on your must-buy list?

A 52 inch LCD flat panel from my company Vu is on my list. A large view area can be the ultimate indulgence while watching television or movies.

f you could, what kind of dream machine would you build?

A machine that could read people's expressions, something similar to a brain scanner and yet as portable as a card scanner.

Have you been embarrassed while showing off your toys?

It can be a bit awkward fighting spam and pop-ups while you are in the midst of an official presentation.

Which website do you frequent the most?

I see technology-related websites such as www.tomshardware.com. I enjoy shopping online at www.eluxury.com.

Have you ever hacked a machine?

I have tried to guess passwords, but never successfully, so after that, I haven't bothered.
