Laptop Info Today : 2007 In Review
Well it’s in this year that Laptop Info Today is actually born.
Though this site is about only 3 months old, I’ve learn a lot in getting this site done which includes wordpress installation, getting the info for my visitors …. etc.
I’ve to thank everyone who have supported me to get this site going and making it possible …. eventhough I’m kinda slacken at times.
Anyway this review is what goes on the notebook world in general and my site as in 2007.
Check It Out…….
Laptop Note : MS Windows And MS Office
This is the confusing part whenever a newbie approaches me for advice on getting a new notebook.
Though most of you understand the difference between a Microsoft Windows operating system and Microsoft Office, there are still a minority which still finds this rather misleading.
How come?
I was approached recently by a friend of mine who wanted to buy a new Dell Inspirion notebook computer. As per normal, he asked me for my opinions on the notebook and other technical stuffs like battery life, etc.
But what surprised me is that, he keep mentioning MS Excel, Words and Powerpoint when I looked at the bundled offer there isn’t any. Microsoft Works was not even in the bundled!
After a while I understand that he was confused about the Windows and Office products.
Seems both are products by Microsoft, there are a few users whom may think it is always a bundled.
Microsoft has separated Windows (Operating System) and Office (document, spreadsheet and presentation) and this ain’t something new.
I believed Dell might have include a 30 day trial in the package, though it is not written in the newspaper article showed to me by my friend.
Anyway for new users out there whom might still be getting a new notebook for the coming new year always remember that Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office are two different products completely.
Your notebook computer manufacturer will always (most of the time) bundled you with the operating system but not necessarily the Office applications software.
But if you want a free and open source version of Office, you can always download OpenOffice.org .

Laptop LCD … The Evolution Of XGA
When you hop around any computer stores this coming weekend, you will see the great graphic displays on the notebook computer these days that weren’t there yet a few years ago.
Now with the technology of XGA (Crystal Graphics Adapter), users can experience clear and sharp images from their notebooks.
Not at my time ….. when I purchased my first notebook ….. the Twinhead Efio 12KT.
It is built on TFT LCD (64 Mb Shared) which is not color rich as the current XGA screens.
One thing to note that some these XGA graphics require more shared RAM.
What does these means to the average users?
