AMD or Intel laptops
While the Netbook offers ever-smaller PCs for those for whom size is an issue, it has left the laptop manufacturers free to concentrate on functionality, performance and processor speed. The major battle is between the two giants of processors - AMD and Intel.
Intel - ahead of the game
The big news for 2010 is the introduction of Intel's new ‘Arrandale' chip, the mobile version of the dual-core 32nm Westmere line. This chip has the usual dual core processing facilities, but with the added advantage that it supports hyperthreading and that it will have both the 32nm processor die and a 45nm graphics die on the same chip. By integrating more features onto a single chip, Intel is going head to head with AMD's existing integrated chips, and the ones who will really benefit from this battle of the processors is the consumer as laptops become better able to support multiple functionality and integrated graphics processing.
With AMD, the big change will be the introduction of quad-core mobile processors and a new integrated graphics chip. This shows the trend for both manufacturers, who are both gearing up for 2011 which is when the current processor technology takes a big jump forward. They are both preparing the marketplace for the introduction of combined processor and graphics cores to form a single die from each company. The real winners here will be gamers and those who use their laptops for graphics packages such as CAD, with accelerated processing speeds, higher resolution and faster graphics download times.
In the meantime…
But all of that is in the future, so what about now? With so much advancement taking place at such a rapid pace, how do customers know whether to go for AMD or Intel? Intel has always had a much higher public profile (almost anyone into technology knows the Intel ‘theme tune', thanks to an aggressive marketing campaign), whereas AMD has always been more of a ‘backroom' boy. Although the two processors are comparable, it is Intel that gets all the press coverage and its Centrino range of processors are standard in almost any laptop of note. But AMD are fighting back, and trying to raise their profile with a public that thinks processors begins and ends with Intel. Where Intel has the edge is in Wi-Fi technology. Their most recent chips feature the latest version of Wi-Fi, known as 802.11n, and the even more up to date WiMax gives laptops a Wi-Fi signal of over several miles.
AMD has concentrated on graphics capability. Laptops have traditionally used low-end graphics chips that piggyback off other components. But now more than a quarter have stand-alone graphics chips, and it is here that AMD is making inroads. AMD has become better known amongst the gaming community, with its graphics chips delivering super-fast processing and exceptional quality and resolution, making AMD-installed laptops ideal for gaming or other graphics based applications.
Each has its own strengths, but to date, Intel has the lion's share of the laptop market. Which one to go for entirely depends upon the type of application you want to use your laptop for. What will be interesting to see is, with the advent of combined processor/graphics chips on the horizon, whether AMD will be able to take back some of a market that to date has been dominated by Intel.

Laptop vs Desktop
The development of laptops revolutionised the way we use technology. No longer tied to the desktop PC and thanks to the invention of Wi-Fi, we now have the ability to surf the Internet wherever we roam, the tethers of cords and plugs no longer a problem. While there is still a place for the desktop PC, does the advent of more powerful, faster and more feature-rich laptops make the old ‘box under the desk' redundant?
Logistics, logins and leads
A laptop is great - you can wander around the house and even work in the garden if the mood takes you. But a laptop is only good as long as the battery has some life in it. Once that ‘low battery' symbol starts to flash, you're back to leads and cables to juice up your hardware. With a desktop, the power's constant, you don't have to worry about a low battery suddenly wiping out six hours worth of work (if you haven't got into the habit of hitting ‘save' regularly, that can send you into a snarling rage) and unless you suffer from powercuts on a regular basis, nothing should interrupt you as you work at your desk.
Laptops take up much less space than a desktop PC. Because a laptop is a self-contained unit, there's no CPU, monitor, keyboard, mouse and all the paraphernalia that goes into connecting the various components into one, working PC. While this may seem to be much more convenient, the extra space that a tower unit has inside its outer casing means that desktop PCs can be upgraded, added to and ‘pimped' up - particularly useful if you're a serious gamer, want to add some memory or are into high-tech gadgetry. The companies also take this into account, and most of the real cutting edge technology such as new processors, liquid-cooled chips and high-resolution graphics boards are designed for desktop PCs rather than laptops.
Price - you get what you pay for
Unless you're seriously into upgrading, a desktop PC is still cheaper than a laptop. And with so many people opting for the laptop, there are plenty of exceptionally good, second-hand desktop PCs for sale at a fraction of the cost of a top of the range laptop. Another major advantage of the desktop PC is that if one of the peripherals such as the keyboard or mouse fails, it is easy, quick and cheap to replace. Old, bulky monitors can be replaced by sleek, LCD screens and if you have a particular aversion to cables, wireless keyboards and mice can declutter your desk considerably.
All of this favours the desktop PC over the laptop, but if you're highly mobile, use a computer for work and spend much of your working day travelling between meetings, the laptop is head and shoulders above the desktop PC for convenience. Board any commuter train during rush hour and you'll see plenty of people making the most of their journey time by spending it working at their laptops. So for the go-getting businessman or woman, a laptop is the obvious choice. Once again, price is a factor, and laptops can range between a £150 bargain from Ebay right through to a top of the range AppleMac weighing in at just shy of £1000. It all depends on what you want your PC to do, where you want to do it and how deep your pocket is.
Despite the all-conquering laptop taking the lion's share of the PC market, there is still a place for the desktop PC, and it is doubtful that the laptop will ever completely replace the desktop unit. Rather, the two work in synergy with each other, with each having its own pros and cons. If you want to cover all the bases, have your desktop PC at home and invest in a laptop as well to cover you when you're away from your ‘basestation'. That way, you can have the best of both worlds!

Monochrome Laser Printer
A Monochrome laser printer is best, if your printing needs do not involve color. A monochrome printer offers sharper and cleaner print outs. Moreover, a monochrome laser multifunction printer is faster and cost-efficient to operate compared to inkjet printers.
Compared to color printers, the basic mechanics of a monochrome printer are simpler, because the latter uses a single laser. This printer uses a single laser pass a across a photosensitive receptor.
The printer takes a digital document, making one pass across it surface, and creating a rasterized version of its content. The single laser makes a charge on a rotating photoreceptive drum. This drum transfers the charge to an output page.
As this happens, it causes the fine granular powder of black pigment and plastic to stick to their respective surfaces. The charged page then passes through a certain fuser that melts the plastic in the toner, which cause this to stick to the page to create the final printed image.
The quality of a monochrome laser printer is varied according to its manufacturer. Laser printer reviews are surely helpful in determining the best monochrome laser multifunction printer.
According to laser printer reviews published by PC magazine, the B4100 can print impressive text with neat and crisp outlines. However, its toner appears to be grayer than black, which robs the text characters of their full impact. It is best for personal use.
The monochrome brother HL-2170W printer is cost-effective when it comes to the cost of consumables such as toner cartridges, according to the PC magazines. It also comes with built-in Wi-Fi networking connectivity.
Brother HL-5280DW printer is best for small office laser printing needs. It has built-in Wi-Fi networking and LCD panel. Its printing quality is good and fast. It is also durable.
On the negative side, this monochrome laser printer model is neither fit for heavy office use nor good for duplex printing. It does not produce good photo quality.
The Samsung laser printers are also competitive. The Samsung ML-2851ND is the best monochrome printer for small offices. It is regarded to have excellent print quality. It is also known for its good paper handling and speed. Besides being small and lightweight, it is also light on your pocket because of it low cost per page.
Its drawbacks include being expensive, uneconomical for occasional use and the graphics quality is mediocre. Even the photos are not impressive.
Samsung SCX-4500 is a speedy printer. It has a built-in scanner, and is user-friendly. Its scanning options are flexible. Its advantages include not having an output tray, grainy printout and low quality of printouts at finer point sizes.
The HP manufacturer is also known to produce a good monochrome laser printer. The Hp laser jet P3015d is a fast printer fit for office use. It also has good graphics speed. On the negative side, it does not have Ethernet port. The photo it produces is grainy. On top of it, this model is quite expensive to operate.
Finally, the HP LaserJet P2055x monochrome laser printer is built for speed and volume. It is impressively fast and has automatic duplexer. The paper capacity is higher than the standard. However, its toner is quite expensive and the graphics quality is rough-looking.

Getting Rid Of Viruses
Pen drives have created a world of free travel of files and documents from one location to another. They can give the user the flexibility of a portable durable device with lots of storage space. What they can also give the user is a nasty virus that can infect not only the files on the pen drive but also the files on their computer.
It may not be commonly thought of, but plugging your pen drive into one computer after another, can potentially load it with a virus. These viruses can be contacted by using a public computer, a work computer or even a home computer if it catches a virus and you`re unaware.
Viruses in pen drives spread quickly because many people are unaware until it`s too late, that their pen drive even has a virus. And because they are always being plugged in somewhere, they are easy targets for virus scams and duplication.
If your device becomes infected with a virus you might notice the following things happen; loss of files, new files added and others being deleted simultaneously, or can`t access files or folders... Pen drives are the easiest carrier of viruses.
As soon as you plug it into a USB cable and double click on the icon, the virus can infect your device and can copy the virus right onto your computer. It happens fast and easy and usually you have no idea for a while.
To fix the virus issue you need to disable the auto run on pen drive. You will need to open to start and run then type `gpedit. msc` and press enter. You`re going to click onto administration templates and turn off auto play.
The next step in the process is scanning your data recovery device. You can scan with antivirus software before opening contents into Window. You can also try using freecommender. Just download the program and then open everything using your pen drive. You can check for unusual files and delete them safely.
If you need to back up data to ensure that it is safe you can try inserting the device into a USB connector. Then open the contents by typing the drive letter. Copy the important files from it and close the window. You can format the device later.
To become virus free in your data recovery device there are some steps to take. You should insert the pen drive and double click the computer icon and select tools and then click on the menu bar and click radio button, unclick the boxes to hide protected operating systems. Once it is selected click ok to save changes made.

It may not be commonly thought of, but plugging your pen drive into one computer after another, can potentially load it with a virus. These viruses can be contacted by using a public computer, a work computer or even a home computer if it catches a virus and you`re unaware.
Viruses in pen drives spread quickly because many people are unaware until it`s too late, that their pen drive even has a virus. And because they are always being plugged in somewhere, they are easy targets for virus scams and duplication.
If your device becomes infected with a virus you might notice the following things happen; loss of files, new files added and others being deleted simultaneously, or can`t access files or folders... Pen drives are the easiest carrier of viruses.
As soon as you plug it into a USB cable and double click on the icon, the virus can infect your device and can copy the virus right onto your computer. It happens fast and easy and usually you have no idea for a while.
To fix the virus issue you need to disable the auto run on pen drive. You will need to open to start and run then type `gpedit. msc` and press enter. You`re going to click onto administration templates and turn off auto play.
The next step in the process is scanning your data recovery device. You can scan with antivirus software before opening contents into Window. You can also try using freecommender. Just download the program and then open everything using your pen drive. You can check for unusual files and delete them safely.
If you need to back up data to ensure that it is safe you can try inserting the device into a USB connector. Then open the contents by typing the drive letter. Copy the important files from it and close the window. You can format the device later.
To become virus free in your data recovery device there are some steps to take. You should insert the pen drive and double click the computer icon and select tools and then click on the menu bar and click radio button, unclick the boxes to hide protected operating systems. Once it is selected click ok to save changes made.
