Macbook air apple laptop

Great go anywhere laptop,

I’ve owned a few Apple portable computers over the years, starting with the PowerBook 100 through the MacBook Pro 15″. The MacBook Air with the SSD option is great.

I love the thin profile, light weight and speed of this computer. In the 2 weeks since it arrived from Amazon, I’ve been streaming my iMac’s iTunes library (music and video) to the Air, watching YouTube, general Internet use, email, gaming (Quake III and Pangea Arcade.)

The system is very responsive and doesn’t really heat up much unless I’m playing a game or watching video (iTunes or YouTube) for a while. The fan is pretty quiet and quickly ramps down when the processor idles back. The LED-backlit screen is great as is the backlit keyboard. Typing is a pleasure with this keyboard and I thought I wouldn’t like it from the pictures.

As many have pointed out, it would be nice to have easier access to the USB port. I happen to have an extension USB cable that I use to connect a 32GB thumb drive. The thumb drive casing is too large to fit the port otherwise. I’m planning on getting the Air Superdrive soon. However, using Remote Disc from my iMac was super easy and trouble free.

Battery life seems fine, as I’m getting about 4 to 5 hours if I’m conservative with the backlight. This is with WiFi on and Bluetooth off. We have an Airport Extreme (dual network) base station and I’m getting full network connectivity throughout the house.

I do wish the vents on the back/underside were a bit different, as they appear to be prone to getting covered up if not on a flat surface. I’ll be getting iWork and Photoshop Elements 8 in a few days and will see how those apps work. I haven’t connected my Canon EOS 40D camera yet, but expect the Air to be a great traveling companion to the camera.

All in all, I’m a very satisfied owner of the MacBook Air. Amazon was a pleasure to order from as usual.  More Information….

Hp 2140

Hp 2140

I bought this HP Mini 2140 for traveling .. carrying a 17inch laptop on cars, planes and trains is just too much for my old shoulders and hands!
This computer is a little gem .. she does absolutely everything that a bigger computer can do and she fits in my purse! No more wheeling a computer bag to security checkpoints and hoisting it into the overhead compartment. The 92% size keyboard is fine for my hands, I do not find it to be cramped at all. It runs Windows Vista and Internet Explorer 8 and all of the Windows Office products with no difficulty whatsoever. I definately would recommend this little computer to everyone.

Netbook acer 11.6

Netbook acer 11.6

I have been using lot of laptops and desktops. This got added as most recent netbook to my collection. Z520 processor feels like bit on the slower side, but if you uninstall Anti-virus and MSOffice Student ver and etc and have AVG anti-virus installed. It runs pretty smooth. I didn’t face any issue with youtube or by playing DivX videos through VLC Media player. If you know how to keep your laptop optimized, I bet you don’t feel performance degradation.

Worth for the money. Only thing I missed in this is Bluetooth. but I have Bluetooth Dongle (again a cheap priced one) plugged in one of the USB port permanently.

Battery life is also awesome.  Recommanded friends to buy.
