Save money on buying lower specification laptops

The price of laptops has dropped considerably over the past few years. Some of the top manufacturers are selling laptops at under $500, with specifications suitable for most users. But that doesn't mean you must buy it at that price, actually, you can still save some money on buying lower specification laptops.
If you purchase a lower spec laptop, there are cost-effective ways you can increase the performance yourself in the future. Memory upgrades are cheaper these days, with a 2GB memory (RAM) module available for under $50. Installing the memory yourself is fairly straight forward, and can greatly improve the performance of the laptop.
Laptop hard drives are very reasonably priced, they are also reasonably easy to install. The size of the hard drive you will need will depend on your particular requirements, if you don't wish to upgrade the existing laptop hard drive, you can always purchase an external hard drive which can be connected via USB.
Laptop processors can be very tricky to upgrade and involve opening your laptop's casing, voiding any warranty. For this reason when choosing your laptop, pay attention to the speed of the processor rather than the size of the hard drive or the amount of memory (RAM) installed (although always check the maximum amount of memory (RAM) that can be installed).
So if you are looking for a cheap laptop, why not take this advice into consideration?

Apple's New ads 'Get a Mac'

Apple released four new Get a Mac ads Monday, continuing its nearly 3-year-old campaign tweaking Windows PCs weeks after Microsoft began firing back at Apple. The new ads are available on Apple's Web site, and will no doubt flood the airwaves in due course. Apple is following its old playbook with the new spots, tweaking PC guy as played by John Hodgman as virus-prone, unstable, and difficult to use.
Apple makes a brief reference to that line of thinking in the "Stacks" ad, in which Mac guy (Justin Long) responds to PC guy's observation that the facial-recognition technology in the new iPhoto must be expensive by noting that it comes free with every new Mac. But otherwise it's the same old strategy of pushing the Mac as an easier-to-use and more reliable computer, with few references to price. One new twist is that a controversy has already sprung up over some of the claims in the "Legal Copy" ad.
Apple inserts a few slams at difficult-to-understand Windows components such as registry keys and virus-protection procedures, but also implies that some basic maintenance tips that apply to any computer, such as emptying the trash and downloading driver updates, are unique to the PC.
Still, the campaign's message seems to have had an impact over the past three years. While there's definitely something to be said for the "ain't broke, don't fix it" strategy, at some point Apple will need fresh ideas if Microsoft continues to hammer away with its own anti-Mac campaign.
The sad thing is, people who choose Mac actually care about their computer. No matter how many PCs running Windows I've seen, I've never seen anyone show any kind of emotion for it. Like Linux is for me, when a person uses OS X, the appreciation for it doesn't die after a day or two. I can't say the same about a Windows computer.

Ruby Red Acer Aspire Netbook Review

Did you noticed that Acer has just released a new netbook, it is AOD150-1920 10.1-Inch Netbook, and it is ruby red. If you didn't noticed that, let me give you some brief review.
One of the best features of this tiny little machine is its design. You may only waited this long to get your hands on a netbook because most of the netbooks in the market before the Acer Aspire One looks like a toy more like a laptop. The sleek design and professional looks of the Acer Aspire One AOD150 netbook has finally given me the nudge I needed to get onto the netbook bandwagon. I choose the Ruby Red model as I was looking for something edgy and load. This netbook is also available in shades of black, blue and white.
Then you must want to know the laptop battery, because it is so important for a laptop user. The laptop battery lifespan of the regular 4400 battery is about 4 hours. The new 6-cell 5800 mh battery that can last up to 8 hours of extended use on a single charge. With the longer laptop battery lifespan, you can use the netbook to watch movies when traveling and carry it with me on the good without the need to bring the charger along.
The next must be the Windows XP home, this little notebook may seems to be much faster than many current laptops. It runs on a 1.6GHz Intel Atom processor and has 1GB of RAM. The Windows XP on the netbook is a skimmed version of the original operating system. Many bells and whistles have been removed, creating a speedy performance.
Now it comes to hard drive space. With over 160GB of hard drive space, there is more than enough storage for the average laptop user. The Acer Aspire One AOD150 netbook is also wi-fi enabled (802.11b/g) and has a in built webcam for video conferences.
No matter the design, the laptop battery, the Windows XP home or the hard drive space, there is no reason for you not choose this type of netbook, why not take action now? Are you just looking for laptop accessories? Just visit here, I'll recommend you some type of it:

Looking for a Laptop? Consider These Things First

Manufacturers are discovering that many users don’t care. Sales are up, and the category’s hot, with companies tripping over themselves to introduce new netbook models. Why? Many users seek simple devices they can use to access the Internet, send and receive e-mail, and edit basic office documents and spreadsheets. That’s it. They don’t need expensive features they’ll never really need or use. They just want access to the much heralded “cloud.”However, not every netbook is right for every user. So before you look for a netbook, pay attention to the following things:
Display size: Netbooks are designed to be small, lightweight, and portable. One significant tradeoff is screen size. Many of the most popular models feature only seven- or nine-inch screens. Your best bet, before committing to a purchase, is to test using a sample or evaluation unit at a local retailer. Otherwise, you may be underwhelmed when such a small box arrives in the mail.
laptop battery life: Netbooks grew from initiatives to build simple laptops that could be used by children in developing countries. As a result, these systems have an energy-conscious heritage, which is doubly important considering most netbooks are used away from homes and offices.
Due to differences in batteries, CPUs, hard disks (solid state versus traditional hard disk drives), and display technologies, battery life varies widely by manufacturer and model. For example, Asus Eee PC 1000HE users can receive as many as five hours of service from a single charge, whereas Wired tests found the HP Mini 2140 lasted only 2.5 hours.
laptop keyboard and pointer buttons: Small is the resounding netbook theme, and that applies to keyboards and track pad options, too. Don’t expect systems with 8.9-inch displays to include full-size keyboards. Keys can actually prove alarmingly small (yet another reason you should test a potential new purchase before buying).
Storage space: Many users are accustomed to 80GB, 160GB, or even 250GB notebook hard drives these days. With such vast storage capacity, they haven’t had to limit the number of songs, graphic files, and videos they store on their personal computers. But netbooks are different. Some leading styles include only 16GB solid state drives that, once Windows is loaded, don’t leave acres of space for file storage. Consider your needs and plan accordingly.
Weight: Portability is the key with netbooks. Many of the most popular 8.9-inch display models weigh only two-and-a-half pounds or so. But some may sneak up on you. Rethink machines weighing more than three pounds — too many sub three-pound options are available for you to settle for needless deadweight.

Will Tax-free Online shopping Really Ended

If a little-known but influential alliance of state politicians, large retailers, and tax collectors have their way, the days of tax-free Internet shopping may be nearly over. A bill expected to be introduced in the U.S. Congress as early as Monday would rewrite the ground rules for mail order and Internet sales by eliminating what its supporters view as a "loophole" that, in many cases, allows Americans to shop over the Internet without paying sales taxes.
Currently, Americans who shop over the Internet from out-of-state vendors aren't always required to pay sales taxes at the time of purchase. Californians buying books from Amazon.com or cameras from Manhattan's B&H Photo, for example, won't pay sales taxes at checkout time that they would if shopping at a local mall. "
We will have the bill ready for introduction by next Monday," said Neal Osten of the National Conference of State Legislatures. "We finalized the language and now we're working out the remaining issues and adding some new provisions at the request of various stakeholders."
The final legislation is expected to be introduced by Sen. Mike Enzi, a Wyoming Republican, and Rep. Bill Delahunt, a Massachusetts Democrat, who have championed similar proposals in the past. Delahunt's office on Wednesday confirmed he was interested; Enzi's did not respond.
On the other side are the Direct Marketing Association, the Electronic Retailing Association, and companies including eBay. One of their biggest objections to the idea of collecting sales taxes on out-of-state shipments is the dizzying complexity of state laws.
Since 2003, more than 20 states have signed on, either wholly or partially, to the agreement, meaning they agree to simplify their tax codes and make them uniform. If enough states participate, proponents believe it will be easier to convince Congress to make sales collection mandatory for out-of-state retailers.
"You'll see governors from states who are active participants pushing the Hill to move the issue forward--Kansas has been a long-standing leader. North Dakota, Iowa, Oklahoma, those are some with members on the governing board," said David Quam, director of the office of federal regulations at the National Governors Association. "The states have done the heavy lifting of coming up with a voluntary system that makes sense. Now it's Congress' turn to grant states the authority to collect this."
Representatives of the Streamlined Sales Tax Project are gathering in Washington, D.C. next month for a three-day governing board meeting, including a "lobbying day" that's scheduled for May 13.
Anyone who has visited high sales tax states like Maine and New York know how devastated the retail environment in these jurisdictions is, outside a few economically privileged urban areas.
Now the same political hacks will direct their incompetence on the one element of the economy that has eluded them-the internet. I'm sure they'll do everything they can to turn the internet into the same bleak wasteland they've created in so many of the Main Streets of their own states.
As for the "brick and mortar" retailers, they should be doing everything they can to lower sales taxes in their home states, not rob the consumer of their ability to shop either the internet or their local store.

Dell handset Is Coming

What's known about Dell's product? What if, for instance, it's a wide-reception WIFI-enabled VOIP phone that simply undermines the wireless business model? That would explain why carriers don't like it but Dell still has a degree of confidence going to market. Dell's usually a pretty shrewd operator. A few years ago its Axim devices were among the best pure PDAs, and at the best pricepoint as well.

According to an analyst report Monday,Whenever Dell does unveil its much-hinted-about new handset, it will apparently be taking a nontraditional route to the market.

Dell has decided to sell its new product through retailers only, Ashok Kumar of Collins Stewart said. While that's certainly interesting, and in line with Dell's recent record of testing new ways of approaching the market with its products, the reason Kumar gives is far more tantalizing: he says U.S. and European carriers were none too impressed with Dell's effort when the company tried to sign up some wireless partners during a meeting at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona last month.

Dell hasn't responded to a request for comment. But if Kumar's claims are true, this presents serious problems for Dell. The company already has relationships with some of the major carriers, including AT&T and Verizon Wireless, to sell wireless-service plans for its notebooks and Netbooks in the United States and in Europe. Rejecting what will, by its very nature, be a high-profile product from a current business partner doesn't speak very well of the product's competitiveness.

Having been rejected from the major carriers will also handicap the device from the start, since U.S. consumers are conditioned to buying subsidized phones and may balk at paying a full price. But the bigger problem is that there's just not that much market share left to grab, especially without the marketing might of large carriers behind it. Another report on Monday says Dell is in talks with China Mobile to develop a partnership for its device in China. If a partnership pans out, Dell's phone could launch in China by the end of the year, according to Zhang Jun, an analyst at research firm Wedge MKI. In such a scenario, Dell's device would use Open Mobile System, China Mobile's operating system, which is based on Google's Android, he wrote.

Dell has been targeting the Chinese market heavily in the past year with its PC products. The country is now Dell's second-largest market overall. On a recent trip through Asia, company founder and Chief Executive Michael Dell addressed rumors of an upcoming handheld product, saying, "It wouldn't be unreasonable to expect that we would have smaller mobile Internet devices or smartphones in the future."

Companies should concentrate on what theyre good at. Dell keep making reasonably priced-high quality PC's. Leave that to others unless you have a product that is new to the market.
