Which linux distro would best take advantage of my new pcs many resources?

Posted by: admin  :  Category: pcs desktops

I just finished building a 6 core (amd) desktop pc, with 4 gigs of ram, and an ati radeon hd 5770 videocard. I have been planning on using ubuntu, but I thought maybe since my computer has so much power, I should use a more demanding kde desktop. Which distro would you reccomend for the best experience? (I have strong tech knowledge). Thanks!

Considering you put the emphasis on your PC power – select Debian, Ubuntu or LinuxMint and install the KDE environment that makes sense.

But there are other things to consider in choosing a Linux distro you’ll like (64-bits or 32, community help, ease of configuration, security, package available, updates frequency etc …)

How do i connect the internet to 2 Desktop PCs?

Posted by: admin  :  Category: pcs desktops

I have a broadband connection in my room, and a wireless router lying in the cupboard. My sister also has a PC in her room, but no internet. How would i go about connecting/sharing my internet connection to her computer?

You have to either run an Ethernet cable to both computers or buy a wireless PCI card to use on one of the computers and set up wireless internet in your house.

Do they sell power buttons for Desktop PCs?

Posted by: admin  :  Category: pcs desktops

I’m not liking my computer case, so I tried to modify it. Are there any websites that sell such a thing? Maybe something that comes fits in a drive bay?

Nope, you’ll have to buy a new case.

Just want to know where you can get desktops from somewhere else and not PC World.

craigslist, lots of good dealios there if you keep searching.

Do USB wifi adapters work on desktop PCs?

Posted by: admin  :  Category: pcs desktops

Whats the best model to buy?
I dont know if different models have different internet speeds from one another?
Are they as good as, say a Linksys wireless adapter?
Are they fast enough to use internet sites, chat live, play computer games and stream movies?

Of course, any USB wi-fi adapter will work in any PC with a USB slot to put it in. However, most people don’t use USB adapters on desktops because they’re both more expensive and have a harder time picking up signals that are far away. It’s better to use a PCI wi-fi adapter in a desktop computer.

Any brand of adapter will work fine, with D-Link and Linksys being the most common.

For anything besides gaming, a wireless connection will be sufficient. It’s not recommended for gaming because of the slight "lag" (delay between the router and your PC) that a wireless connection implies, so if you’re gaming, it’s best to plug it in.

How do I write to my PCs desktop from my laptop browser?

Posted by: admin  :  Category: pcs desktops

my desktop is Win XP and my laptop is Win 7.. I’m already able to browse the C drive but can’t go into desktop folder, (permission denied). I’ve tried adding my laptop user name as an administrator to desktop

You need to go to the Desktop folder, Right Click, choose Permissions, and allow other users access to the folder. Also, make sure both computers are in the same Workgroup.

Posted by: admin  :  Category: pcs desktops

Hello, I am planning to buy a new pc desktop and I live in Belgium. Newegg doesn’t ship internationally and tigerdirect and ewiz ask too much money for transportation from U.S.A to Europe. So could you tell me some online stores that will ship to my country. Thank you !

EAD em ritmo de forte alta no Brasil

Posted by: admin  :  Category: pcs desktops

 

Com o aumento do número de computadores pessoais , a quantidade de pessoas que estão estudando ou sendo treinadas pela web não para de crescer. Segundo a Associação Brasileira da Indústria Elétrica e Eletrônica (Abinne) , os brasileiros estão comprando um computador a cada três segundos e a venda de desktops e notebooks chegará a 13 milhões de aparelhos no fim deste ano, somos o quinto maior mercado de PCs do mundo, perdendo em vendas apenas para Estados Unidos, China, Japão e Inglaterra.

O computador conectado a Internet está mudando o padrão de vida educacional e cultural e por isso fomenta esse mercado que ainda é incipiente no País, porém muito promissor. Vejamos alguns dados :

De acordo com o anuário (AbraEAD/2008) , mais de 2,54 milhões de brasileiros estudaram por educação à distância em 2007, por meio de cursos credenciados pelo Ministério da Educação ou de grandes projetos nacionais com cursos livres.

Segundo o mesmo anuário, os investimentos das empresas em métodos de educação a distância tendem a ser cada vez maiores para os próximos anos enquanto que os investimentos em métodos presenciais , tendem a ser cada vez menores.

 

De acordo com o Censo da Educação Brasileira, feito pelo Inep (Instituto Nacional de Estudos e Pesquisas Educacinais) e pelo MEC, havia 21.873 inscritos em 2003, número que passou para 430.229 em 2006. Com isso, a EAD (Educação a Distância) cresceu quase 20 vezes (1.867%) no Brasil, entre 2003 e 2006.

 

Para se ter sucesso nesse mercado , é fundamental entender de educação , tecnologia e não ficar na “vala comum” , é preciso ter um diferencial. Só assim, será possível assegurar sobrevida.
