Women like Macs. I gave my wife a Mac and it's great because she's technically clueless so it's a perfect machine. It's totally maintenance free, I never have to mess with it, it always works, never gets a virus, and it's stylish looking.
My dad got a Mac for my mom also. They are both...
Batteries deteriorate rapidly after about two years and they vary in quality and capacity. There are so many factors that go into battery life it's not something you can determine unless you actually test the machine in the exact configuration you're using. Vista uses more power than XP, XP...
Why do you think you need a notebook cooler? Are you running it in an usually hot environment or overclocking it? As long as you set the notebook on a flat smooth surface at room temperature it will be fine. If it's overheating you should clean the notebook to remove dust buildup.
The fact...
Yeah the Toshiba definitely has the better specs. Dedicated graphics and a larger hard drive. It's got a larger screen also but that doesn't mean much since they are both low resolution 1280x800 so you might prefer the smaller size of the HP.
They both seem to have the same processor but...
It's not that the mini is so small. It's because it's sitting on that Behemoth!
Seriously though, my notebook is a Behemoth and I'm thinking about getting one of these little things to supplement it. They're pretty cool for most things as long as you don't try to play Crysis on it.
If you want a high powered notebook there is nothing more high powered than the Sager NP9262. You can configure it with any modern Core 2 Duo desktop CPU all the way up to the QUAD Q9650 3.0GHz w/ 12MB L2 Cache on a 1333MHz FSB and it will be faster in just about everything than any other...
You must reboot to enter BIOS. You cannot enter BIOS without shutting down. If you change a setting in BIOS it will stay that way until you change it again but you must still reboot to get to it. You can hibernate also. It doesn't matter anyway because the way Dell is with their BIOS it's...
That's a little much. You will generally get better performance than that. Keep in mind the fact that notebooks typically use much slower processors which often brings down benchmark scores when comparing to desktops.
I have a 9800M GT running on an E8500 (desktop CPU) at 3.16GHz and get...
What about using Device Manager? You can disable it from there. Not very convenient but certainly faster than rebooting to BIOS.
That's why I love my Sager (Clevo). There's a keyboard switch for just about everything you might not need...trackpad, wireless, bluetooth, camera, speakers...
I bought a Sager with a 9800M GT and it appears to be just a 8800GTX. Same core (G92 M), same specs, same features. They are probably just a BIOS flash away from the 8800M.
I think he means FSB 1600 allowing his DDR running 1:1 at 800. You'd have to run your CPU at 7.5x or 8.0x multiplier giving you 3.1GHz or 3.2GHz respectively. Either a slight overclock or a slight underclock.
Increasing your FSB and running your RAM at 1:1 while lowering your CPU multiplier...
Macintosh PowerPC 7500
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Macintosh_7500
It came with a 100MHz PowerPC 601 and 16MB RAM, and a 500MB SCSI hard drive
During the many years I operated it I upgraded it to a 300MHz PowerPC 604 and over 400MB of RAM and a Voodoo II video card. And dual 10GB...
Exactly. It's the increase in heat that is the primary cause of increased wear and tear on the electronic components. Also the cycling of heat or rapid changes in heat cause wear and tear that can lead to eventual failure.
The fact is, if you put a massive heat sink on your CPU, increase...
I don't think so, I think paying off your balance in full every month may have a worse effect because credit card companies don't make as much money that way.
I think the things that hurt your credit are unpaid dept and a high dept to income ratio. Also, too many open accounts with high...
I'm just starting to sell on eBay for the first time and am concerned about the new direction they're taking as outlined in this article by the NYTimes.

I'm wondering if I'm wasting my time now since eBay is clearly moving away from...
