Replacement rubber feet for an Acer Aspire One Netbook. Does anyone know where to buy them?

Try contacting the manufacturer of the computer. Usually they have every replacement part for sale.

Thanks for the attempt to help, but Acer customer support is totally useless. 2 emails went unanswered and a phone call was a waste of time. The rep, who barely spoke English but refused to transfer me to someone else, said, after a 15 minute ordeal, that I have to find someone locally because they don't have "ruver fees". BTW, I spelled "rubber feet" very slowly for her 4 times because she didn't know what I was saying.

Another story:

I managed to speak with someone at Acer tech support which fully understood what I was talking about, but they informed me that they have no part number for the rubber feet, therefore they are unable to place an order to have them sent to me. BUT, if I were to send my AAO in for repairs, they could stick new feet on it.

SOLUTION:

Go to ebay. I see three vendors in Hong Kong selling generic Acer Aspire One rubber feet for less than 5 euro including postage to Europe/US.

How do you make lg viewty louder?

Have a general idea. Have you tried the jog wheel around camera? If not try that. If you have tried that there is a more complicated way but I'm not sure exactly how. I know you dial 3845#*990# then into Device test, Scroll down to sound. From here I'm not sure. I think it could be Audio CAL tool, Then Sound Calibration, Change sound DB but not sure. Sorry

What is a suitable operating systems for the following activities 1 Distributed Computing 2 Multimedia Development 3 Database Management?

Distributed computing:

Following are the proper operating systems for implementing distributed computing.

Multiprocessor systems: A multiprocessor system is simply a computer that has more than one CPU on its motherboard. If the operating system is built to take advantage of this, it can run different processes (or different threads belonging to the same process) on different CPUs. Over the years, many different multiprocessing options have been explored for use in distributed computing. Intel CPUs from the late Pentium 4 era (Northwood and Prescott cores) employed a technology called Hyperthreading that allowed more than one thread (usually two) to run on the same CPU. The most recent Sun UltraSPARC T1, AMD Athlog 64 X2, AMD Athlon FX, Intel Pentium D and Intel Conroe processors feature multiple processor cores to also increase the number of concurrent threads they can run.

Multicomputer Systems: A multicomputer system is a system made up of several independent computers interconnected by a telecommunications network. Multicomputer systems can be homogeneous or heterogeneous: A homogeneous distributed system is one where all CPUs are similar and are connected by a single type of network. They are often used for parallel computing. A heterogeneous distributed system is made up of different kinds of computers, possibly with vastly differing memory sizes, processing power and even basic underlying architecture. They are in widespread use today, with many companies adopting this architecture due to the speed with which hardware goes obsolete and the cost of upgrading a whole system simultaneously.

Multimedia Development:

Multimedia development requires powerful development platforms running with operating systems that are suited to the development task. Macintosh OS is the suitable for multimedia development. On the Macintosh side, Apple's absolute control results in greater ease for users who must integrate additional functionality into this environment. On the downside, a smaller installed base has given rise to fewer hardware and software options that often bring higher prices than are usually seen on PC-compatible products.

Database management:

Database management system is easily operable with most of the OS. Database management is supported for windows, Linux, Unix platform etc. Several operating system services are examined with a view toward their applicability to support of database management, and interprocess communication; and consistency control. Most of the OS meets with above all services. So database management can be done with most of the OS.

What is a good laptop for solidworks?

CAM programs require a lot of memory on the graphics end, as well as a overall powerful system. Currently (Q3 2009), you're limited to Quadro, FireGL and FirePro graphics cards for dependable performance.

AnswerIf your assemblies are large 250+(prts) then don't use laptop for SW.... Currently I'm using an $6,000 (8 gig ram) system and it still crashes on occasion... good luck.. PJ

PS.. i hate dell's service but products are ok...investigate their portable products

AnswerIt all depends on what are the MINIMUM Systems Requirement of SolidWorks Software ...

Find out what processor and meomory your Laptop has ? on desk top screen RIGHT-CLICK mouse button on "My Computer" Icon and go to 'Properties" in the list @ the bottom.

that shows that Processor and Memory that Laptop has ? then compare the Systems Requirement of SolidWorks Software ... Its that simple :)

==No, it's not that simple. The pull of resources in SW is correlated with the geometry of the parts you're designing. I have a supercomputer that I could crash with SW if I really wanted to; try knurling a simple part, actually knurling the model, to see what I mean. -Siress==

How do you make a laptop into a gaming laptop?

Very complicated since you cant give a laptop a new graphics card but possibly some new RAM. Look/ask a person at a local computer store and say where are the gaming laptops. Usually they cost like $1,000 but its for everything already put in there. The best website to do this from is compusa.com some laptops and even spare parts!

(optional idea) Heres my gaming story i thought about a gaming laptop it turns out they cost more than a desktop gaming so try to get some good stock computer. Mine was a stock HP Pavillion with 3 slots for graphics cards so that means future cards could work, any Nividia Card then do a Triple SLI. So i found a super saleat compusa.com i got a 8600GT for $80 compared to the $100-$160 i saw. Right there you save! Then i got some Kingston 16 GB RAM 2 cards 8 GB RAM each for $50 compared to the $80-$100 i saw. I needed RAM for my Supreme Commdander Forged Alliance (aka SupComFA) to run super battles of 1000+ units. Otherwise get RAM if you think you need to or you get a error message saying more RAM needed. No im not a geek i studied this for a while since it was the summer and i wanted to make my gaming computer better.

Additionally you will probably need to get a cooling pad for a laptop when you use it for gaming because they do get very hot, much more so than desktops. These are very cheap ($15) and just plug into the usb port of a laptop.

What is the recommended PSU for my PC with Core i5 2500 4GB 1333Mhz Memory DVD RW 24 Monitor Nvidia 460 SE 1GB GPU 1TB 7200 rpm HDD 64 bit Windows 7 professional any advice would be great?

Well without knowing how many sticks of ram or how many case fans you'd have, my answer could differ slightly but 500w would be adequate, full load would likely only use up to 465w.

Monitor would be powered from a separate plug so that doesn't come into it :)

Get a good brand psu though like antic or ocz for example, cheaper brands can be a bit unstable.

Cost of a computer?

That varies greatly. If someone gives you one, then it cost nothing but the electricity, any upgrades and repairs, and the software. You might find a computer in a thrift store for $50 or less, while you may be able to find a new one somewhere anywhere from $200 on up. To have a top of the line mainstream computer would be about $1000 to $1500, while the best possible gamer system will run much more. So the question is how much computer do you want?
