ABOUT LAPTOPS




Laptop Memory-laptop processor

Laptops are coming with all guns blazing for the destruction of desktop PCs and for the birth of a storm of laptop PCs. Really, they are defeating desktop computers in every aspect. Besides, who would not want a more stylish computer with state-of-the-art technology if it comes in almost the same price? That sounds really irresistible to me, like it sounds to others. However, we should not ignore the role of laptop memories and processors because of which laptops are making a mark these days.
Laptop processors play a significant part in computer systems or laptop computers. They are made use for the amplification of speed of the computer. Also, they are made use for the well-organized processing of the laptop computer. It is a CPU optimized for notebook or laptop computers. The central processing unit is required by all computer devices. One of the many significant characteristics differentiating laptop processors from other CPUs is low power consumption. This is a very important benefit as it really irritates the hell out of you when your laptop power comes to a halt in the middle of some important or exciting work. Laptop processors are on an all time high in the market. This had to happen as it is the medium though other parts such as I/O devices, memory, hard disk etc. get connected. However, in the case of memory, 100-pin SO-DIMMs are equipped with 2 notches, 144-pin SO-DIMMs is equipped with a single notch near the center, and 200-pin SO-DIMMs is equipped with 1 notch next to one side. 200-pin SO-DIMM is equipped with 2 variations for finding out the notch that is closely impossible to differentiate. DDR memory is confirmed when the notch is positioned more outboard. DDR2 is indicated if the notch is positioned towards the center of the board. These two kinds of memory are known to be non-interchangeable and therefore are equipped with somewhat different notch locations that curb cross installation. However, certainly the more memory in a notebook system the better, but there are other concerns regarding memory in notebooks. Notebooks are generally more restricted in the amount of memory that can be installed into a system. Sometimes access to that memory can also be a problem if you plan a future upgrade.

NOKIA E51-CREATING WAVES


Review of Nokia E51

For all those techies, Nokia E51 comes as a new wonder of the Nokia cell phone industry. It came into the market in the mid of September. It is the latest to be offered by Nokia cell phone industry. It does look like a slimmed-down version of the chunky E90 as it is not equipped with the Qwerty Keyboard. But, even with a slim figure, the workhouse is no slump. It can be said as a direct replacement of the E50. The beauty of the design is so good that it can never shudder the way you think as simplicity is the aura of this model. At least, that’s what my opinion is about its pulchritude. It is 12mm thick, making it one of the leaner enterprise devices from the Finnish phone-maker, next to E61i which is only 0.5mm thinner. In short, the design is very safe and reserved. Besides, multiple one-touch dedicated buttons for e-mail, calendar applications and contacts is one of the cool features of NE51. These keys are also customizable for identifying short and long presses. Moreover, the * and 0 buttons also activate the phone’s Bluetooth and Web Browser, respectively. Besides, to mute the calls, a separate dedicated key is available. When it comes to connectivity, with dual band 3G/HSDPA on 850/2100MHz frequencies, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth stereo, infrared, 2.5mm audio jack, mini-USB port and support for different e-mail protocols that comprise of POP3, IMAP4 and SMTP. However, it becomes the victim of a do-it-all connector which obstructs the possibility of multi-tasking. If you want to share some data with the PC, then, the charging and mini-USB port can be juiced up as they are separate components. With Feature Pack 3.1, this amazing gadget is based on the series60 3rd Edition. It will be easy to use for previous Nokia users. That said, it will be a gentle learning experience for novices. Another good thing is that standard applications such as Active NOTES, In-Device Search, Team Suite and Quick office were preinstalled on the review set, thus, saving time which would have been otherwise wasted in downloading the programs. The only gripe is that the installed version is only a view copy. Programs such as Window-Live services that include Live Messenger can be downloaded over-the-air for free. This chic model corroborates with various solutions that include Visto mobile, Mail for Exchange which act as solutions. It has an astounding 130MB of onboard memory which is expandable up to 4 GB accompanied with a microSD card. The card slot will be located under the cover of the battery. This model also extend business value to end users an businesses through its ability to integrate tightly with corporate telephony systems with the support of Nokia Mobile Unified Communications solutions like Nokia Intellisync Call Connect for Cisco and Nokia IntelliSync Call Connect for Alcatel. Desk phone calling features are delivered by these solutions like hold, extension, transfer and conferencing to an individual cell phone. It gives way to a business phone. In addition to functional and business uses, this phone has some good entertainment features too. This stainless, steel device holds some of the personal applications such as FM radio, music and multimedia players. Besides, it is equipped with Nokia browser which serves as a gateway to different types of Internet services that include interoperability with Windows Live, providing mobile access to most popular Windows Live services comprising of Messenger, Hotmail and Spaces that will be on your doorsteps through the Nokia Download application. A number of various personal productivity, travel and entertainment applications can be accessed with the help

E-COMMERCE-CHANGING BUSINESS WAYS


E-Commerce-In Vogue
E-commerce can be more than a technology, and if used and implemented as a strategic tool, it can provide organizational gains.
E-commerce is one of the most exciting economic and technological trends of recent years. It provides a new marketplace, more opportunities to sell and market the product, and greater competitive advantages. E-commerce if used as a strategic tool can provide organization benefits through gains in productivity, market share or even bottom line profitability.
On generic conditions, e-commerce refers to any process of delivery of information, products, services or payments via telephone lines, computer networks or any other means. To this definition, we can also add any support for business transactions provided over a digital interface because most firms use the web as a format to work through intranets and extranets. E-commerce is not just a new technology but a new way of doing business.
The “E” word, as someone put it recently, has overshadowed all other letters of the alphabet in the world of business.
A manufacturing company, say an automotive accessory unit, can adopt e-commerce as a way of linking itself forwards and backwards into its supply chain. At its simplest level, this means being electronically available to vendors, dealers and end-users 24 hours a day. An email connection is a good place to start. It can be developed into a route for electronic data interchange as a next step. The most important and frequently wanted information for any manufacturer or dealer is the order status. When the next supply can be expected with certainty is the question uppermost in the minds of any downstream partner in the supply chain relationship.
The impact of e-business on the working of organizations extends far beyond the traditional definition of commerce, although the impact on different sectors and firms is bound to be varied.
The most fundamental and the first is the change in attitudes towards sharing information. To work really well, e-commerce demands information literally at your fingertips. At the click of a mouse, for example, the automobile manufacturer should be able to find out sources, prices and delivery schedules of all sorts of components. For this to happen, his production schedules and plans must be transparent to the vendors. Their production capabilities should be similarly transparent to the car or truck maker. This is just one example.
The key to reducing transaction costs is reduction of time to access, compare bargain and finalize contracts for selling and buying. The machine provides access and incredible speed with ease, and equally to all those who acquire it. How well it is exploited depends on the parties to the transaction appreciating the value of time and prompt information to both sides. This is precisely where the Government influenced sectors will have a significant advantage.

NO SMOKING B/C IT AIN'T KEWL GUYZ


Stop smoking

It is not a new discovery or something that smoking is injurious to health. But, then too people do not realize the consequences that have to be faced or get addicted to smoking. Most people just start smoking by taking a puff just to give it a try. But, later on, they discover that they have gone addicted to it and cannot do anything about it.
As the nervous system and brain activities are quickened for a few minutes by the stimulation generated by a puff, one gets induces to smoking. Also, the blood pressure and heart beat rate amplifies. Body’s end points also do not get enough blood flow as it is reduced which becomes the cause of numbness to the areas such as fingers and toes. Taste, olfactory senses and hunger are diluted. Also, in many cases, dizziness is experienced by the smokers. Even if the smokers enjoy the short term effects, they should keep the long term effects in mind. No matter if the person quits smoking in the later years of his life, the risk of suffering from diseases which are life threatening still sustains and goes on increasing. Also, even if a person has smoked at least five years of his life, then too he is bound to have a devastating permanent effect on the hearts, lungs, eyes and throat. Besides, there is going to be a permanent effect on the urinary tract, sex organs, men’s sperm production, digestive organs, bones and joints etc. Also, lips and skin get the blow too. The nicotine which is a drug in it is very harmful. Mostly, people start smoking when they are young because of peer pressure or a longing to taste the puff. The blood at this young is hot which leads to the consequences being overlooked by this section of society. But, then if one has a determination to quit smoking, he could. It will require a lot of extravagant human qualities to take birth such as patience, control, dedication, willpower, relaxation etc. One has to go to the quit smoking programs and attend it regularly. Also, while on the verge of attending the programs, negative thoughts such as “I won’t be able to smoke for my whole life or I couldn’t live without smoking” are bound to come. Nevertheless, you should bite they bullet to subdue your temptation. And these temptations are only natural as it is a fact that two-third of our thoughts in the whole day are negative. Only things we should know are to control. Also, follow the program accurately. Many things will be there including diet which has to be maintained according to the program. Moreover, do not allow yourself to be over stresses while going through the program. Also, as far as possible, try to abnegate yourself from your friends who induce you into smoking. If possible, it will be better if you find a friend who is like you and wants to quit smoking. This will give both of you the support needed for each other.
So, if done a little bit of elbow grease, one can quit smoking and set an example for others.

CHOCOLATE-A LOKHANDWALA TREASURE



Chocolate-Hub for voguish clothes

Lokhandwala Complex, being a shopping commercial hub is equipped with a myriad of places for fashionable and trendy clothes. In the company of all those shops or places, there exists a shop named Chocolate which is according to my view, incomparably best than all its counterparts. Having said that, I hold gravity of my words i.e. ‘incomparably best’ used for this shop. There are so many factors which attribute to this cause.
With the trendiest clothes hung across the crown of the glass door entrance and the mannequin posing the hottest attire, one could easily be charmed by the attractiveness of the plush external appeal. However, just walk into the store and you will know that the interior design is pretty good and contemporary, but not the best or in match with the exterior razzmatazz as per my honest opinion. On the inside, you will find pile of clothes shelved systematically into different sections and gleaming lamps filling the shop with its illuminating light. Moreover, you will be grooving to some of the popular bollywood numbers as you enter the shop, thus, making the ambience rocking and modish while setting the perfect mood for the occasion. As you enter, the staff will keep you at complete ease with their courteous service. From smart casuals to trendy wear, you will be catered to clothes for any occasion. Be it party wear, office wear, denim wear, daily wear, sports wear or casual wear, you will be definitely be catered for any occasion. Besides, you will even stumble upon branded clothes for affordable prices. If not branded, you will be flagrantly delighted and surprised to view the finest first copies of branded clothes available which almost appear branded for half of the prices. Keeping the most-up-to-date clothes in its den, it really does not fail to keep up with the expectations of the fashion conscious youngsters. Needless to say, clothes really form the USP of the shop due to its eclectic range in such easy on the pocket prices, thus promising to tug the heart strings of many customers regularly.

ANTIMATTER-A LIFE-CHANGING TRUTH


Antimatter sounds like the stuff of science fiction, and it is. But it's also very real. Antimatter is created and annihilated in stars every day. Here on Earth it's harnessed for medical brain scans.
"Antimatter is around us each day, although there isn't very much of it," says Gerald Share of the Naval Research Laboratory. "It is not something that can be found by itself in a jar on a table."
So Share went looking for evidence of some in the Sun, a veritable antimatter factory, leading to new results that provide limited fresh insight into these still-mysterious particles.
Simply put, antimatter is a fundamental particle of regular matter with its electrical charge reversed. The common proton has an antimatter counterpart called the antiproton. It has the same mass but an opposite charge. The electron's counterpart is called a positron.
Antimatter particles are created in ultra high-speed collisions.
One example is when a high-energy proton in a solar flare collides with carbon, Share explained in an e-mail interview. "It can form a type of nitrogen that has too many protons relative to its number of neutrons." This makes its nucleus unstable, and a positron is emitted to stabilize the situation.
But positrons don't last long. When they hit an electron, they annihilate and produce energy.
"So the cycle is complete, and for this reason there is so little antimatter around at a given time," Share said.
The antimatter wars
To better understand the elusive nature of antimatter, we must back up to the beginning of time.
In the first seconds after the Big Bang, there was no matter, scientists suspect. Just energy. As the universe expanded and cooled, particles of regular matter and antimatter were formed in almost equal amounts.
But, theory holds, a slightly higher percentage of regular matter developed -- perhaps just one part in a million -- for unknown reasons. That was all the edge needed for regular matter to win the longest running war in the cosmos.
"When the matter and antimatter came into contact they annihilated, and only the residual amount of matter was left to form our current universe," Share says.
Antimatter was first theorized based on work done in 1928 by the physicist
Paul Dirack. The positron was discovered in 1932. Science fiction writers latched onto the concept and wrote of antiworlds and antiuniverses.
Potential power
Antimatter has tremendous energy potential, if it could ever be harnessed. A solar flare in July 2002 created about a pound of antimatter, or half a kilo, according to new NASA-led research. That's enough to power the United States for two days.
Laboratory particle accelerators can produce high-energy antimatter particles, too, but only in tiny quantities. Something on the order of a billionth of a gram or less is produced every year.
Nonetheless, sci-fi writers long ago devised schemes using antimatter to power space travelers beyond light-speed. Antimatter didnt get a bad name, but it sunk into the collective consciousness as a purely fictional concept. Given some remarkable physics breakthrough, antimatter could in theory power a spacecraft. But NASA researchers say it's nothing that will happen in the foreseeable future.
Meanwhile, antimatter has proved vitally useful for medical purposes. The fleeting particles of antimatter are also created by the decay of radioactive material, which can be injected into a patient in order to perform Positron Emission Tomography, or PET scan of the brain. Here's what happens:
A positron that's produced by decay almost immediately finds an electron and annihilates into two gamma rays, Share explains. These gamma rays move in opposite directions, and by recording several of their origin points an image is produced.
Looking at the Sun
In the Sun, flares of matter accelerate already fast-moving particles, which collide with slower particles in the Sun's atmosphere, producing antimatter. Scientists had expected these collisions to happen in relatively dense regions of the solar atmosphere. If that were the case, the density would cause the antimatter to annihilate almost immediately.
Share's team examined gamma rays emitted by antimatter annihilation, as observed by NASA's RHESSI spacecraft in work led by Robert Lin of the University of California, Berkeley.
The research suggests the antimatter perhaps shuffles around, being created in one spot and destroyed in another, contrary to what scientists expect for the ephemeral particles. But the results are unclear. They could also mean antimatter is created in regions where extremely high temperatures make the particle density 1,000 times lower than what scientists expected was conducive to the process.
Details of the work will be published in Astrophysical Journal Letters on Oct. 1.
Unknowns remain
Though scientists like to see antimatter as a natural thing, much about it remains highly mysterious. Even some of the fictional portrayals of mirror-image objects have not been proven totally out of this world.
"We cannot rule out the possibility that some antimatter star or galaxy exists somewhere," Share says. "Generally it would look the same as a matter star or galaxy to most of our instruments."
Theory argues that antimatter would behave identical to regular matter gravitationally.
"However, there must be some boundary where antimatter atoms from the antimatter galaxies or stars will come into contact with normal atoms," Share notes. "When that happens a large amount of energy in the form of gamma rays would be produced. To date we have not detected these gamma rays even though there have been very sensitive instruments in space to observe them."
