Laptop Buying Guide 2007-05-16 12:00:00 PriceLaptop
prices have come down dramatically in the last few years. I just purchased a top-notch travel notebook for $1600. That's a far cry from the middle of the road laptop-brick that I scraped to buy five years ago for $2300.There are budget machines well below the $1000 mark. Acer, HP, Apple and Toshiba all make a budget line of laptops that can do the trick for portability at a price. Student DiscountsIf you are a college student, be sure to check your bookstore for the student discount; usually around 15%. You might consider buying your software from a deeply discounted education site like journeyed.com. Also browse the student or education section on a computer manufacturer's website. You may have to prove you are actually enrolled, but for 15%, it's worth showing your student ID. I suggest starting at HP's education program or Apple's Education program.SizeSize is a huge factor in the purchase of a laptop. If you are a road-warrior, you probably want a light-weight mach Read more:Buying

Two Considerations when Buying a New Camera 2007-05-16 11:31:00 Planning on buying a new digital camera? Among the many choices you have to make including megapixels, image quality, and zoom capability, here are two more things you should consider:Media Type: There are lots of media types available for cameras, such as CompactFlash, SecureMedia, etc. Because of my previous purchases of CompactFlash cards that I used in older cameras, if upgrading, I would not want to purchase a camera that used a different type of memory unless its other features far outweighed those of competing cameras. Memory prices are going down, but cards are still not cheap and I don't want to 'throw away' this media investment when upgrading.Some cameras are realizing that not everyone wants to use their manufacturer's proprietary media format. For example, the upcoming (at the time of this tip's writing) Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 uses Sony's Memory Stick format, but this digital camera also supports CompactFlash and MicroDrives.Battery Type: If you currently use recha Read more:Buying

How Do I Speed XP's Shutdown? 2007-05-16 04:53:00 Tips for getting out of Windows more quickly.You could hard-boil an egg in the time it takes some Windows XP systems to shut down. If your PC doesn't know how to say good night, Gracie, try these tips.Don't Shut Down, HibernateThere are only two reasons to shut down Windows: to save electricity, and to reset the operating system when it starts acting goofy. If nothing really bad is happening and the stars have aligned correctly, XP can run reliably for days or even weeks between boots. So instead of shutting down your system, tell it to go to sleep.Putting Windows into Hibernate mode copies the contents of your machine's RAM to your hard disk, then powers everything down, which saves just as much electricity as shutting it down--from the hardware point of view, the two actions are identical. Hibernating XP and waking it out of hibernation take much less time than closing it and rebooting. For more information, read the "Enable Hibernation" section in my September 2002 Answer Line.Cl Read more:Speed

's boldest attempt to conquer new technology markets since the company launched the original iPod in October 2001.The phone, which will cost $500 and be available initially to only AT&T Wireless customers, signifies how strongly Apple believes it needs to diversify from its core Macintosh computer line and turn itself into an all-inclusive media-device company.Apple unveiled the iPhone in early January. The new touch-screen phone will be able to play music, surf the Internet and take pictures, among other functions.

It will also have a 3.5-inch diagonal screen and be 11.6 millimeters thick. Apple said that the phone will have a 2-megapixel camera, instant text-messaging capacity, iTunes s Read more:Month
Best-Selling Gadget Ever 2007-05-17 16:47:00 You must be surprised that this item was mentioned as the best selling gadget in an article in Yahoo.

It doesn't have a color screen, music player, or digital camera. However, it does allow texting, houses a flashlight, alarm, and digital clock.

Nokia-developed Cell Phone to warn against Lightning Strikes 2007-05-24 22:11:00 Scientists at Nokia
have developed software that transforms a mobile phone into a signal receiver and warns the user of an approaching lightning strike.Basically, a lightning bolt is an electric current that emits radio waves, which each bolt producing frequencies between 10 hertz and 5 gigahertz. However, the distribution of these signals depends on how far away the lightning is.According to the scientists at Nokia, the multiple receivers in a phone, such as Bluetooth, FM, tri-band GSM, Wi-Fi and RFID, can be tuned to pick up these signals.The newly developed software then interprets them, works out the distance to the lightning, and tells the user if the lightning strikes are getting closer.Since lightning can be a major risk to people taking part in outdoor activities such as golfing, jogging etc., the software could become an indispensable safety device for outdoor enthusiasts.As of now, Nokia has filed a patent (US patent application 2007/0085525) in the United States (US) for the Read more:against

New PlayStation 3 version 1.80 software gives console new capabilities 2007-05-23 22:43:00 Word from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe indicates that the PlayStation
3 will be receiving a significant firmware update on May 24, 2007. New for firmware version
1.80: upscaling of original PlayStation and PlayStation 2 games to 1080p when viewed on a compatible HD TV set. With the announcement coming from the offices of Sony Europe, it’s still unknown if the upscaling of older PlayStation software is a result of the revised hardware’ssoftware emulation, meaning that the feature could be exclusive to the Euro-spec PS3. Currently, North American and Japanese PlayStation 3 utilize dedicated PS2 chips for the backwards compatibility of previous-generation titles. Also on the upscaling front, the new 1.80 update will enable the PS3 to upscale DVD movies up to full 1080p as well. This feature was promised by Phil Harrison back in March, and now gives the PlayStation 3 similar DVD playback capabilities as most other standalone Blu-ray players. Version 1.80 will finally

Touch Screen in a Table Is the Latest Wrinkle in Computers 2007-05-30 02:20:00 Having just tried its hand at developing a digital music player, Microsoft is working on something new: digital furniture. The company plans to unveil a computing device today called Microsoft Surface, featuring a 30-inch screen embedded in an acrylic tabletop. The device’s electronic guts are hidden in the low-slung table’s thick pedestal. At first glance, Surface is reminiscent of an old-fashioned arcade game table around which patrons played Pac-Man. But there is no joystick here, and no mouse or keyboard either. The device is controlled by touching the tabletop display. Microsoft says this touch screen will allow people to “interact with digital content the same way they have interacted with everyday items such as photos, paintbrushes and music their entire life: with hands, with gestures and by putting real-world objects on the surface.”For example, when a digital camera with Wi-Fi capabilities is placed on the display, the table recognizes the camera and, at a touch Read more:Table

Apple MacBook Pros Get LED Screen 2007-06-07 01:11:00 Apple announced that their new MacBook
Pro laptop will include LED screens. The new laptop line will also pack in Intel's latest processors and chip set, as well as 2GB of memory itself. This is an attempt by Apple to pick up the laptop line and to keep them as some of the most powerful laptops on the market. The 15-inch MacBook Pros are the first to have LED-backlit displays which reduce the trace mercury previously found in LCD displays. They also run on lower levels of power reducing power consumption and raising the batter life. “With Intel Core 2 Duo performance, more memory and state-of-the-art graphics, this MacBook Pro is a portable powerhouse for creative and professional users,” Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of global product marketing, stated. Apple has set up the MacBook Pros to retain their slot at the top of the food chain, especially with the addition of the brand new LED screens and it should be interesting to see how many companies follow suit.
