Dell Laptops are the medium range in computing. and as such is priced right in the middle. However, in today's computer market there are a variety of factors that will determine a price of a computer.

How do you wipe everything off a dell inspiron including account information and security code?

Use a tool that allows you to do a low-level format of the hard drive, preferably a drive wipe. This is a bit of software that lets you write over a physical drive with 1's and 0's in a random pattern. Some times it repeats the process several times to ensure data can not be recovered from the device.

I recommend the tool "Ultimate Boot Disk" which is a bootable ISO image that contains a number of tools, some of which can do what you're asking for.

Why wont your mouse pad work and also frozen in the middle of the screen?

I assume you mean why won't the mouse work? The mouse pad is just a pad placed underneath some mouses (or mice) to improve their operation.

If your mouse is not working, it'd help to have some more information on what type of mouse it is. If it plugs into the computer, check it is plugged in correctly and into the correct port (usually a USB port) and ensure the cable is not damaged. If it is wireless, make sure it has new batteries correctly inserted into it (assuming that it uses batteries), etc. Again, it'd help to know what kind of mouse you have before I could help, as there are many different types and each type operates in a different way.

EDIT: Sorry, just noticed this was posted under laptops, and realized you might have meant the touchpad you find on most laptops. If that's what you mean, then I'd guess the problem probably isn't something you could fix yourself - if the problem is that the laptop touchpad isn't working (and you've tried restarting the computer a few times) I'd suggest taking your laptop to a computer technician.

Is dell optiplex is better than dell precision?

The differences between the machines, in actuality, is based on marketing and, as such, different pricing. Under the hood, they are still Dell machines built with lackluster components. Dell has always had excellent marketing and that has led to the appearance that they are machines that anyone should want. Being a professional in the computer sales and service business however, I can tell you that you are better served by buying some other machine with my preferred brands (based on the reliability experienced by my customers) are Acer, HP, Lenovo (formerly IBM until IBM spun off their PC line into a separate company just as they did over 20 years ago with their printers which is how Lexmark was born), and Gigabyte.

Is a sony 8mb memory stick compatible with a dell inspiron 1501?

Not sure off the top of my head--but only a few computers have built-in memory stick readers. You'll probably need a third party device that plugs in through USB or something. As for being able to address 8mb,etc, it should be fine

What is the application of harmonic mean in medicine?

By definition, the harmonic mean of a dataset (x1, x2, ..., xn) is the reciprocal of the arithmetic mean of the dataset's reciprocals.

That is, MeanHarmonic=n/[1/x1+1/x2+...+1/xn]

The harmonic mean applies more accurately to certain situations involving rates. For example, imagine a blood donor fills a 250mL blood bag at 70mL/min on the first visit, and 90mL/min the second visit. What is the average rate at which the donor fills a bag? Let's break it down:

250mL @ 70mL/min = 3.571 mins total

250mL @ 90mL/min = 2.778 mins total

So 500mL total in (3.571+2.778) mins total = 500/6.349 = 78.753 mL/min

So the harmonic mean of 2/[1/70+1/90] = 78.750 gives a more accurate description of average rate, in this example, than the arithmetic mean (80mL/min).

This, however, only applies to rate. If, for example, you wanted to calculate average time to donate it would just be the arithmetic mean (3.571+2.778)/2 = 3.175 mins.
