In terms of value for money and quality, the ASUS eee pad transformer is considered the best, with a price of about £350 (without keyboard dock) and a Nvidia Tegra 2 chip, it is a decent tablet to have. It has very good tech specs and the opportunity to have a keyboard dock.
In terms of pure power, probably the soon to come ASUS eee pad transformer Prime. It is not released yet, but it has the same functions as the transformer, but with a quad core processor, rather than a dual core one. It is thinner and lighter, with higher specks. For the moment though, most of the high end tablets have dual core technology, so any of them will be fine. The main ones being the samsung galaxy tab 10.1, motorola xoom, LG optimus pad and the Transformer. They are all pretty much the same.
What is the input device used for rapidly reading large quantities of information?
You could get a microphone and a program like speech to text to convert it, or, if you already have a file typed up on a different computer, you could transfer it using a flash drive.
What is the difference between a computer and calculator when performing calculations?
In the math world, calculators perform operations one at a time, while computers can process a sequence of operations using provided instructions. A typical calculator requires many interactions to perform a computation, while a computer takes a set of instructions.
Since the advent of the information age, the term computer has been corrupted. It is most commonly used to refer to laptops and desktops, but can also describe any device with a digital processor and memory (such as a smart phone, a game console, or an MP3 player). These "computers" can perform mathematical computations, but are also used to process data (such as text, sound, and images) with logical operations. Strict mathematical computers lack this functionality.
Modern calculators, such as the TI-86, are implemented with calculator software that runs on "computer" hardware. These "computer" calculators only use their logic processing capabilities to present simple menus and dialogs to the user (unless special programs, like games, are installed and ran).
Electronic components that interprets the instructions that operate the computer?
The BIOS basic input output system is responsible for operation of a computer the first thing bios does is POST power on self test to make sure all hardware is powered and communicatiing before booting up
Why would you want to study IT?
To obtain certificates that may lead to a job, or simply out of interest to improve personal computing skills. Studying Information Technology can prove just as important for job prospects, or simply for studying as a hobby.
How do you retrieve a computer administrator account that no longer appears?
Computer Administrator will only show on the welcome screen when there are no other users defined. Once you create a user, Administrator will become hidden. Only way to retrieve this ( without a registry hack ) is to disable your welcome screen and fast user switching from the User Accounts option in the Control Panel. This will affect you in two major ways. . .
1) You will need to type out all of your Usernames when you log on. ( Including Administrator )
2) You will no longer be able to switch between users while staying logged on. You will need to log off completely.
What sizes do HP tablet computers come in?

What is the other name of internal memory?
It's used to access data in a random order in different places.
The more, and faster RAM the quicker it will find what the user ask for and the more amout of data it can handle at a time. It's used because a Hard Disk can only find data in a specific order since it have mechanical parts(exception is SSD).
When you boot up a program all it's data will transfer to the RAM so it can be accessed quickly. When you shut off the computer the RAM will empty itself.
Also for further research on how a computer use memory and data storage on running applications: "cache".
What are the main stages of solving problems by computer?
There are seven main steps to follow when trying to solve a problem. These steps are as follows:
- Define and Identify the Problem
- Analyze the Problem
- Identifying Possible Solutions
- Selecting the Best Solutions
- Evaluating Solutions
- Develop an Action Plan
- Implement the Solution
1. This first step is critical. It is essential for each group member to clearly understand the problem so that all energy will be focused in the same direction. A good way to define the problem is to write down a concise statement which summarizes the problem, and then write down where you want to be after the problem has been resolved. The objective is to get as much information about the problem as possible. It may be helpful to divide the symptoms of the problem into hard and soft data
2. In this stage of problem solving, questions should be asked and information gathered and sifted. Do not make the mistake of assuming you know what is causing the problem without an effort to fully investigate the problem you have defined. Try to view the problem from a variety of viewpoints, not just how it affects you. Think about how the issue affects others. It is essential to spend some time researching the problem. Go to the library or develop a survey to gather the necessary information.
3. Identifying possible solutions to the problem is sometimes referred to as finding "Optional Solutions" because the goal is to complete a list of all conceivable alternatives to the problem. Using a variety of creative techniques, group participants create an extensive list of possible solutions. Asking each group member for input ensures that all viewpoints will be considered. When the group agrees that every course of action on the list will be considered, they will feel some direct ownership in the decision making process. This may help put the group in the mood of generating consensus later in the decision making process.
4. Define and Identify The Problem
The starting point in any conscious attempt at rational decision making must be the recognition that a problem exists. While effective meetings are essential to getting work done, most meetings leave us still looking for a decision. A good group meeting should bring the group members together. It should facilitate decision making, assist others in taking responsibility, and contribute to building team effort within the group.
The group begins with defining the problem. The group members only discuss the definition of terms and how the problem relates to other issues. Identifying the problem is very crucial. It is important to not define a problem so broadly that it generates never-ending questions.
5. Evaluating SolutionsThere are several ways to evaluate the chosen solutions, and writing them all down will help the group to choose the best solution to the problem.
Making a T-Chart to Weigh the Pros and Cons of Each Idea
It is often helpful to make a T-chart and ask members of the group to name the pros and cons of each solution. This method will visually illustrate the strengths and weaknesses of each solution. Develop and Assign Weights to Criteria
The key to avoiding possible deadlock in the decision making process is to put all criteria people are thinking about on the table. This way, all group members are clear as to what criteria others are using.
Prioritize the Criteria
The next step is for the group to agree on how important these criteria are in relation to each other. For example, is cost the most important criterion, or low resistance by others, etc. The criteria should then be rated in terms of importance. Assign a number to each criterion so that all criteria together total 100.
Rate Proposed Solutions Using Criteria
Using the four to six possible solutions, score (on a scale of 1 to 10) each solution against each criteria. Repeat this for each criterion. Multiply this score to the weighting, then add the weighted scores for each solution. This exercise will help you to compare alternatives objectively.
6. Develop an Action Plan An action plan is a chart that lists the tasks that need to be done and identifies who will be responsible for each, when and what action is necessary, where to start, and how.
Divide the Solution Into Sequential Tasks
Looking at your solution as one task may seem too great an undertaking. It is much more productive to divide it into sequential tasks which act as measurable steps toward the solution. When dividing the solution into tasks, be sure to include a timeline, what is to be done, and who will do it.
7. Implement the Solution Sometimes the groups who choose the solution are not the ones who will implement it. If this is the case, members who select the solution should clearly explain why they selected it to the ones who will implement it. Showing that the problem solving process was an organized and orderly process will convince others that the solution is valid.
What computer does an it technician use?

Why are some websites good and some bad?
Dear Friend,
It depends on what you think is good and bad. People think that sex and porn is okay.... but is it really? People think that the Bible, and Jesus are just made up creatures, but are they/ it really? You see, we have to first of all know what is good and bad to define what the real good and bad essentially means.
Why is our culture so morally wrong? Why are girls as young as 13-16 having sex, and ending up taking care of the kind or aborting it? What is the point of our culture if we can change it.
Why are the men out there watching porn, and naked ladies strip and laughing? Why are people so about "ME"? Why is our culture so totally focused on us. why are dad's not caring about their daughters and letting them wear bikini's all of the time? Why? Why are we/ you changing the world?
I know a girl who had a boyfriend had sex at 16. You know... the girl is in 7th grade at age 16. She has been to JD (juvenile detention). Just the other day she told me that her boyfriend left her for another women/ girl. Now this girl is about to have a set of twins which are going to be her 4th and 5th kids. She already has one set of twins (who are boys) then she has 2 girls, now she is expecting another set of girls (which are twins). Is this a right picture? Is this what we want our culture to have?
Jesus is the only hope that we can have. (What can wash away my sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus) God, the holy father sent his one and only son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. -John 3: 16. Look, I don't know who is reading this or who wrote this post that I am answering too but Jesus is the only one who can tell us what is right an wrong. Ask him to help you, and Read the BIBLE!! Please pray the prayer below to believe in him today!
Romans 10: 9
"If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."
This is one of the most important verses in the entire Bible -- It tells us the requirements to be saved!
Luke 6:46 Why do you call me, `Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?
There are no 'magic words' to become a Christian. Remember -- praying is talking to God, not just saying words. I suggest you pray this prayer:
Father God, I come to You right now, in the name of your most Holy Son, Jesus Christ, asking You to accept me as a Christian.
You say in Your word that if I confess my sins and ask forgiveness, You are faithful and will forgive my sins and remember them no more. You will not hold them against me and You will give me everlasting life.
Father, I confess that I have sinned against You. I have not followed Your commandments and I have broken Your laws. I repent of my sins and ask for Your forgiveness.
Father, I believe that Jesus Christ, Your only Son, came to Earth and was born, that He lived among us, and that He was crucified to pay for our sins and for my sins. I believe that You raised Him from the dead and gave Him power over all creation.
Lord, right now I accept Your Son Jesus as my Savior and as the Lord of my life. Send the Holy Spirit to guide me, protect me, lead me and counsel me. Send Your angels to gather around me and protect me. Protect me from Satan and his evil forces. Help me grow in wisdom, knowledge and love for You and Your ways. Give me the strength and courage to change my ways and resist the Devil and avoid sin in the future.
Lord, I thank You for sending Your only Son to die so that I can live.
Jesus, I thank You in that You died for me while I was still a sinner and had not yet accepted You. I thank You for forgiving my sins and for bringing me to a saving knowledge of You. Please bless me and protect me. Teach me to pray. Guide me. Increase my faith, and make me sure in the knowledge that I can rely on You, no matter what may come. Lead me to a good church where I can learn Your word and the Father's will, where I can fellowship with Christians and grow in my knowledge of You.
I ask these things in Your most holy and precious name, and I thank You for making me a Christian.
Amen!
May God bless you!
~YOUR SIS IN CHRIST!! :) God bless you my friend

Why is an ergonomically correct setup for computer system essential?
- One of the first considerations in an ergonomically safe environment is a comfortable chair.
- a chair with five legs and wheels for easy movement will ensure stability
- adjustable height of 15-21 inches off the floor to accommodate most people - a sitting position of 90 degrees, feet flat on the ground will reduce stress on lower back
- 90 degree angle at the elbows for typing
- backrest offer firm support
- armrest should not restrict worker's ability to get close to the desk
A desk at the proper height is also very important for an ergonomically safe environment
- hold keyboard at height so that the user doesn't have to reach to type
- desk must be ideal for pen and paper writing aswell
- a keyboard support surface that is 580 to 710 mm off the ground will accommodate most users
A mouse that requires no tension.
Low lighting that causes you to strain your eyes.
Would a surge protector keep your computer from harm even with a direct hit to your house?
When the lights go out, any number of incidents may have occurred. Storms may knock out power or a 1500-watt hair dryer may have popped a circuit breaker. When this happens, there is the possibility of a power surge occurring when power is restored. An unchecked surge can cause permanent damage to delicate electronics like a desktop or plugged-in laptop PC. There are ways to avoid this, as well as ways to correct the problem even after a surge occurs.
How do you fast computer speed?
Are you using xp?
Xp has very cool features, however it demands lot of memory from your PC...try disabling some features to use less memory...like using the classic desktop instead of the colorful one...you can do that on PC settings and task bar menu...
Also go to the settings and hit on System...there go to the advance tab and click on performance settings, there uncheck all option you think won't affect your computer and that will help faster up a little...

To speed up your computer and free up space and memory for free:
Go to the Start Menu> Run
Type in "appwiz.cpl"
Uninstall whatever you don't need.
Next, go to Start> Run and type in "msconfig".
Go to the Startup Tab and uncheck everything you don't want to startup. If you want, you can uncheck everything, and your anti-virus will still restart itself when you log on.
Now go to My Computer> Hard Drive> Documents and Settings> [USER NAME]> Local Settings> and delete everything inside the Temp Folder. (This is a hidden folder so you will need to have "show hidden files and folders" checked in Folder Options) All the files in this folder are just temporary files that your Internet stored that for certain websites.
Then go to My Computer> Hard Drive> Windows> Prefetch and delete everything inside it. This folder is like an cache for programs and should be emptied about once a month.
Next, you should install CCleaner, it will get rid of a lot of temporary files on your computer. It also has a registry repair system, which is easily the best free one available on the Internet:
http://www.ccleaner.com/download
Another option is to try defragmenting your computer.
Go to the Start Menu and go to All Programs
Go to Accessories and System Tools.
Choose Disk Defragmenter and when it loads click defragment.
Next, go to Device Manger (Start> Right Click My Computer> Properties> Hardware Tab> Device Manager) and update all drivers.
Another thing I would say is to compress your files if you already haven't.
Open My Computer and right click on your hard drive
Check the Compress Drive button and let it do its thing.
Finally, make sure your Hard Drive doesn't have any bad sectors. Go to My Computer> Right Click Hard Drive> Properties> Tools Tab> Check Now> Check both boxes and Start. It will ask you to reboot, so reboot. This will clear out any bad sectors on your Hard Drive.
These are short-term solutions however. The easiest way is to just upgrade the RAM on your system, but at least the ways above are free.
