Please note that there are more netbook computers now on the market and that Consumer Reports probably doesn't have the exact same opinion as you do. Also, you may have specific needs for your laptop, such as a larger screen or long-lasting battery, which are not as emphasized in this rating as they are to you. I recommend checking a few out at Best Buy, borrowing some of your friends', and/or buying this magazine to help you choose which netbook computer is best for you and your needs.
Can you play runescape on MacBook?

How do you clean your keyboard?
Turn off your computer (so you won't hurt anything). Then, run your rag over keyboard. Use rag to get in between cracks. You can also use Clorox bleach clothes to keep your keys and mouse clean and disinfected.
Turn the Keyboard over and support it at an angle and pond on the back side. You will be amazed at what comes out.
Department stores such as Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and K-Mart, sell air cans. They have a thin straw that you can attach to the nozzle to get out any dust that you may have in your keyboard. The can looks like an aerosol can.
How do you watch movies on a school laptop?

How do you locate the CMOS battery in a laptop?
I don't have experience with that exact model, but I have disassembled and repaired a few Sony laptops. From my experience the CMOS battery is usually located towards the back (if you were facing the screen in a normal situation) under the keyboard. Before starting you should have a good #0 and #00 Phillips screwdriver with a magnetized tip. To access the keyboard screws, you must first remove the top panel. Usually it's one screw on the side, then slide the panel to the side and lift up. Be careful of the ribbon cables for the speakers and power button. You should be able to see the keyboard screws. You may have to remove some shielding to get to the battery. Usually the "=>" marked screws. If the battery is not a button cell type like the typical CR2032, look for a two wire lead (red/black). Some cooling fan wires look similar to the CMOS battery leads. The pigtail type batteries are usually stuck to the main-board with foam double sided tape or Velcro The next step is trying to find the replacement battery without paying an arm and a leg.
Can you replace LCD laptop screen with LED screen?
That would likely not be a good idea. Presumably you would be using "contact paper." The problem with that is that it would reduce your visibility. In addition, you might not get all the air bubbles out. If you have to remove this plastic layer, you would likely leave adhesive behind. What might be a better idea would be to use a large enough, clear acetate sheet and fasten it to the case of the monitor and not the screen.
A makeshift solution may be to put a bag over the monitor when not in use. You would still have to clean it, but it would be protected when not in use.
Try going into your display options or monitor, and check to see if you can select the VGA as the primary monitor. I had this problem once before when trying to hook up an external monitor to my laptop.
How do you turn on built in webcam on my vaio laptop?
To turn on an HP webcam:
1. Go to QuickPlay (press the blue-lighted button above the F3 key (or next to the power button)).
2. When QuickPlay shows up, there is a row of six icons across the bottom of the screen: click on the second one from the left (the one with the photo-movie_reel-music_notes).
3. A window with three 'frames' shows up. On the left frame there are six items: the fifth one should say 'HP Webcam'. Click on it.
4. The webcam's blue LED light should now be turned on. There should be a rectangle with dimensions of ratio 1:2 which should show what the camera is sensing.
5. There is a row of seven buttons above that rectangle: the seventh is for taking snapshots and the sixth for recording videos.
6. Videos and pictures are saved at:
Pictures -- C:\Users\Public\Public Pictures\My Snapshots
Videos -- C:\Users\Public\Public Videos\HP Webcam

It is on the right-top of ur keyboard, beside the "F12" button. Maybe named "Pr Scrn".
If u wanna capture anything on the screen, i think the print screen button couldnot help u. Press this button, u only get the full screen capture. So i recommend u try PCHand Screen Caputre. It could help u capture anything. Im using it, it is easy to use, even for a novice. I think it is pretty good. Hope it could help.

How can you use your television set as computer monitor?
You should be able to purchase an adapter at your local Radio Shack or equal. The problem you will run into is the pixels(amount of dots per inch)in a computer monitor are double that of a TV. Due to this fact, the text will appear fuzzy.OK for games though. Good luck.
get a device called a "scan converter"

Look at your electronics store for a 'TV-out' card. This will probably be a PCI card which you will need to install inside in your computer. You can then hook up your TV's cable to the back of the card.
How do i fix the volume of my laptop?
The Dell Inspirion 1525 comes with an Sigma Tel Audio chip, integrated into the motherboard. While playing some sort of sound, clicking on the volume in the clock/taskbar area reveals that the volume has a green indicator bar, but there may also be a shadow bar that is much higher.
The reason for this is the Sigma Tel device driver/software has a volume for the headphone jacks and the speaker volume. To adjust/increase the volume on the Dell, you will need to check the following areas:
1. Volume Mixer - This is pretty standard, going back to Windows 98, simply click on the volume icon once and then click the mixer link; or, if this doesn't do anything, just right-click the volume icon and select Open Volume Mixer (I have Rhapsody and find that if it's open and playing, I have to open the mixer, by right-clicking the volume icon).
2. Playback Properties for the Sigma Tel device - This is easily accessed by right-clicking on the volume icon in the clock/taskbar area and selecting Playback Devices. A dialog box will open and you will see tabs for Playback - Recording - Sounds. On the Playback tab, click on the speakers/headphones device (if you have sound playing, you'll see an equalizer-looking volume bar that is moving), next click properties. The Speakers/Headphones Properties box will open and you'll see tabs labled General - Custom - Levels - Enhancements and Advanced. Click on the Levels taband you will notice there is a volume control for speakers and headphones, I have my settings at 100% for the speakers and 50% for headphones. This seems to work out well. You can also try adjusting the settings on the Advanced tab, if you don't like the outcome, you can just click the Restore Defaults button.
Hope this helps and happy listening!!!
