Here ’s a funny video I stumble upon for those who are still thinking why should they get a notebook computer.

No offence to anyone …….. Just enjoy the funny ad …

Well though it seems like a silly question, I believe they are minority of them wanting to upgrade.

Well Microsoft Vista is a good OS; though as much I prefer Windows XP for customizability.

I think it is important that I share these facts so as nobody would make the wrong move before moving to the “Vista ship”. Here are some important facts which you need to take note before upgrading your current Operating System of your notebook to Windows Vista.

Truth to this, I think most visitors to this site might be saying “Why is Part 2 taking so long to be posted?”

Well I would like to apologize to those loyal readers out there but my health wasn’t up to par for the posting of the Part 2. Kinda had a flu bug attack which has kept me bedridden for about a week (it’s ultra difficult then) but I’m better now and this post will kinda serve a useful purpose.

There are actually 10 things to look at a notebook and I’m going to share them with you.

It comes to wonder to me that when a newbie is getting his/her very first laptop, he/she might not get the real deal.

I am sadden by the fact that the salesperson whom I’ve met doesn’t actually knows about the notebook itself, yet baffling the customer with a lot of lies which is what I usually observed. The most sadden part is customer actually bought the idea of the sales person!

I’m not blaming the sales person, on the other hand, his or her rice bowl actually depends on the sales.

One way or another there’s no one to blame actually.

My tips on this post should be a guide for newbies who want to get a notebook, especially with the festivities and sales going on soon enough…..

Apple will be hitting stores with their new operating system …. The Leopard OSX.

The fifth edition will be hitting stores come October 26 and with the operating system a compatible with the Intel Core Duo 2 processors, my bet is that we are going to see a number of migrants out there, especially from the notebook community.

Don’t get me wrong, Microsoft Windows is still the majority’s choice but with the Microsoft putting Vista in so many editions …. (Home, Home Premium, Business, Ultimate editions), The Leopard is the one and only edition release.

To keep it simple, anyone who bought the Leopard OSX will receive the same software bundled in…. no more, no less. That’s what I like personally like about Apple . They always put one “Standardised” product in the market and it doesn’t confuse people too much.

Although I’ve not tried any of the Apple softwares myself, I personally have the urge to try one since my Lenovo notebook which was integrated with Windows Vista is not giving me the “Ride Of My Life” at the moment.

Some might even wonder….. am I a Microsoft rebel?

When come to Linux in particular, most people tend to stay away from the predicament that it might not be able to be installed on a notebook.

Though most people are quite satisfied with their ultra buggy Microsoft Windows operating system, this post could be a breakaway for the who want feel the new life without Windows.

Alexander Grim has complied great videos and I’ll be sharing them to you via this post in getting yourself started with the installation of Ubuntu Linux on a Dell Inspirion notebook.

As what the title says yes now you can.

And even better you can have it installed in your notebook …. and watch free satellite tv.
