WITI (Women in Technology International) is the premiere global organization empowering women in business and technology to achieve unimagined possibilities and transformation through technology, leadership and economic prosperity. WITI has powerful programs and partnerships that provide connections, resources, and opportunities. Since 1989, WITI has delivered value to individuals, small businesses, and corporations. www.witi.com. Build. Empower. Inspire.
The producers of Lunch at Piero’s celebrate women’s contribution to innovation by partnering with WITI and look forward to introducing the media to members of this important organization.

Anthony Verducci of Popular Science’s online Instructables.com has taken the VIA ARTiGO and breathed new life into a piece of technonostalgia that many of us still have in our attics, the Super Nintendo.  (For you Millennials, the SNES was a much beloved 16-bit gaming system from the early 1990′s.)  Anthony inserted the tiny ARTiGO into the Super Nintendo housing, having  removed a few of the Nintendo bits and pieces with some Dremel tool deftness.  He built in a DVD drive and gave it a slot for outside access, slapped a Nintendo emulator on it, gave it lights, power and voila, a PC that’s also a Super Nintendo that plays Xvid movies!

The VIA ARTiGO and of course the newest VIA Nano processor will be on display January 8 and 9 at Lunch@Piero’s, the working press and innovator lunch during CES in Las Vegas.
