Ganesh Guruswamy, Country Manager and Director, Freescale Semiconductor India reveals his technology habits.

What's in your pocket?

A super-sleek Motorola-RAZR V3. The ideal companion, it's close to my heart since our design team worked on the baseband that powers it!

First crush?

Definitely the x86 microprocessor. I fell in love with this piece of architecture during my stint at AMD where I was part of the Microprocessor Development Group for x86 processors.

Latest squeeze?

The MXC chip - a revolutionary technology, this chip is the size of a postage stamp that will create 3G phones that are sleeker, more feature-rich, less expensive and finally power efficient.

What makes you mad?

Incompatibility of devices make me mad. I dream of the day where we'd be able to use a sleek looking, all-in-one, power-efficient, feature-rich smart device!

What would you most love to see?

World Peace! But seriously, I would love to see people using their mobiles for all their day-to-day activities without having to worry about battery consumption.

Your biggest tech disaster?

None till now! I am happy that I have not had a first hand experience till date.

If money was no object?

Money was never an object, but yes, a sleek all-in-one device would be my dream gadget. Something that's close to convergence of voice, data technologies.

PC or MAC?

PC. I like the simpler interfaces and of course, now, it's a habit.

Linux or Windows?

Whatever suits the applicationÂ… each has its own strengths!

Google or not?

Google always and forever. Not only does it offer an easy interface, its search results are accurate, and the engine offers a whole lot of other search options.

How wrong have you been?

Haven't so far and hopefully never!
