RAM 1GB 400MHz DDR Non-ECC CL3 PC3200 Memory

I have a Dell Dimension 2400 and it had (dare I admit it?) only 256 MB of RAM. When I bought it a couple of years ago, the speed seemed great; but it began to seem sluggish compared to my "work" computers. When I realized how little RAM I had, I went looking for a RAM upgrade. By using a large commercial search engine whose name begins with "G," I found out what types would fit my computer with 2 clicks (including the one on "G" telling it to "go.")

I had never done anything "under the hood" of a computer before (even though I am an engineer -- mechanical type!). Putting in the memory board was a snap. When I plugged the computer back in and started it up, no action was required -- it just recognized and began using the additional RAM. The difference in speed was immediate and dramatic. Programs run much faster, it's very noticeable.

No problem with shipping. Shipped from Amazon, came quickly, no damage.

I couldn't be happier with this product.

Microsoft LifeCam NX-6000 Webcam

Labels: accessories nobook

I needed to buy a webcam to do videoconferencing with relatives in Italy. I decided to buy a Microsoft product because I could be sure it would be the most conventional, mainstream webcam available. I decided to get this model because it appears to be the top-of-the-line for Microsoft, with a 2 Megapixel video resolution (as well as a 7+ Megapixel still camera built-in).

This particular model is designed to attach to the top of a laptop. It does not fit securely on the top of a flat panel display, but with a little tape it is quite usable. I am very impressed by the quality of the picture, and the ease of use of the hardware and software. What most impressed me however was the noise cancellation done by the software, so that the camera's microphone does not create feedback from the PC's speakers (something that telephones do that most of us just take for granted).

It worked like a charm for our internet videoconference with my in-laws in Italy. Really great. I have already ordered a second one to give as a gift.

Note: this model is really designed to use with a laptop. I had to use tape to attach it to the top of my flat panel display and I had to use a USB extension cord to reach the PC under my desk.

Classic Electric Pencil Sharpener,

Posted on 6:13 AM No Comments
Labels: accessories nobook

I had originally purchased a cheap electric pencil sharpener and was frustrated with its lack of performance. I finally "bit the bullet" and spent the big bucks for one that received excellent reviews. I couldn't believe a simple pencil sharpener could be worth that much money, but I am soooo happy with it that I don't begrudge the cost any longer. It sharpens quickly, perfectly every time. It doesn't stop when sharpening is completed, but you can hear the sound change and know it's done. I highly recommend this product and would definitely purchase it again. I can't believe I got so excited over how well a pencil sharpener works! Few things today seem to have superior performance, so our expectations and standards are lower. Not so with the Panasonic pencil sharpener; it's a great product.

Hi All. I am comparing this camera to a Flip Mino HD....while it may not be fair, it is the only way I could give an accurate review to this product. Box Includes: Camera, removable battery, mini hdmi to hdmi cable (wow), usb extension cable, rubber/silicon skin, and documentation. So it starts....the battery comes pretty charged and thus it was easy to install and get the unit running. The first set of options you are presented with are the setup for date, time, country. Here is where the first issue begins....the buttons (scroll arrows up, down, right, left) are WAY too sensitive and thus you are moving around even if you dont want to. So I start to set the date...without paying attention....and I quickly notice that the format for the date is dd/mm/yy which is primarily how the eastern part of the world uses the date. I finally figure out that my mind is lacking without coffee and I get the date and time set.... Lets move on. The camera notifies you that you can hit the play/pause and trash buttons simultaneously to get back to the setup options. Works perfectly. In the setup menu you are presented with the following options: Time/Date Video Quality Instant Record Anti-Flicker Tv System Language Most of these are self explanatory. The ones with options are as follows: Video Quality: HD+, HD, VGA Instant Record: On / Off Anti-Flicker: 50hz/60hz TV System: NTSC/PAL Language: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portugese, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Bahasa (Indonesia), Turkish, and Arabic The main screen shows you what mode you are in (record, ready, etc), the available recording time, the mode (hd+, hd, vga), and a battery meter...these are at the top of the lcd screen. The bottom of the screen shows the date (dd/mm/year) and the current time. When looking at the LCD the mini hdmi port is on the left hand side of the unit and the right hand side has a power button for on and off. The usb connector is at the bottom....folded into the body with a tab sticking out so you can pull the connector out. There is also a standard tripod hole. The shooting begins....I tried taking small clips of things inside the home as well as outdoors (although with the weather up here its not worth standing outside more then 4-5 minutes :-) ). I shot completely in HD+ mode as there are a lot of units this size that do regular vga and hd.... The image quality on the lcd screen was superb...even when outside under the sun I was able to see what I was shooting. This I like. My issue still remains that the rocker buttons are way too sensitive and it was driving me nuts for a while until I was able to mentally adjust the pressure I was applying to them. The viewing begins... I plugged the mini hdmi to hdmi cable from the camera into our 46" Sharp Aquos 1080p LCD Panel. The playback was indeed 720p/1080i as the unit should do. It was flawless and the quality of the video stunned me. I loved it. It was comprable to the Flip Mino HD. Of course, I need help with my stability...since I noticed that movement was apparent...but hey this is no image stabilization camera... HAHA! All that being said, Creative has created a great HD Pocket Camcorder. What I liked: Removable Battery 8gb Storage Build Quality Included accessories (cables, silicon skin) What I diskliked (which is why its 4/5): The buttons (right left up down) are way too sensitive for my needs. Computer Connectivity: MAC OS X Leopard: No drivers needed. Showed up as a usb Volume immediately. iPhoto automatically detected camera and came up with import options. Video Played in Quicktime. Awesome! Was also able to browse to the camera and manually open AVI file. Windows Vista and Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit operating systems tested) Drivers installed automatically. I did not need the Creative software on the device. I was able to browse (windows explorer) to the Vado and open the AVI file in Windows Media Player. I love this functionality. I dont like cluttered software on my machine if I dont need it. In case you are wondering...I am a cross platform user and thus I can review gadgets like the Vado and give accurate reviews. This unit would have earned a 5/5 but I am not quite there on the rocker buttons... I hope that the review above is informative and helps you make the right decision in this category.

Toshiba 320 GB USB 2.0 Portable External Hard Drive HDDR320E03X

Posted on 5:55 AM No Comments
Labels: accessories nobook

I bought this item a month ago as a backup storage for a Dell desktop running Windows XP Home and a Macbook Air. It works great for both Win and Mac. No problem getting power from the USB ports of the two machines. I especially like such portability of this item that I can bring it to my office on weekdays and take backups. It provides enough storage for my office PC and two home computers. It's shipped with Fat32 and I needed to reformat it with NTFS so that large backup files, say, 40GB, can be saved. For Macbook Air, I spared a partition and formatted it with HFS. I don't keep it connected to one of the two machines as I don't run daily backups. Instead, I connect it to one of them once in a while, say, once in two weeks and run Windows Backup manually. As for the Air, Time Machine is smart enough to start backup automatically when the Air recognizes the drive. For safety, I also use the bundled NTI Shadow to backup music files and pictures from my digital camera. File based backups are quite simple and convenient and easy to restore in case of emergency. This is one of the reasons I bought this item when you could choose Western Digital's Passport. I read some reviews claiming that the software shipped with Passport doesn't work. NTI Shadow works fine and as I mentioned above, it's file based backup and I'm 100% sure that the backup files can be restored as I can open them from this drive! If you use different backup software, you could go for Western Digital's and save a few bucks. But I also liked the design of Toshiba's better than WD's. In short, I'm very satisfied with this item.

The ultra-portable notebook mouse

Simplify life on the road.

The ultra-portable Logitech® VX Nano Cordless Laser Mouse for Notebooks is always ready for use, thanks to the plug-and-forget nano-receiver, the world's smallest USB receiver*. Plug it into your notebook's USB port just once and forget about it.

The Plug-and-Forget Nano-Receiver - plug it once and for all!

		Go very small: Logitech introduces the nano-receiver, the world's smallest USB receiver. When compared with other 27 MHz USB receivers for notebook mice commercially available as of March 1, 2007

		Plug it in once and forget it: Barely larger than the USB port to which it connects, the nano-receiver is so tiny that you can plug it into your notebook just one time and forget about it. Out of sight - and out of mind: Once plugged in, the nano-receiver can stay in your notebook. Wherever you are, open your notebook and start using your mouse immediately, without rummaging around for the receiver or constantly replacing it when moving from place to place. Your notebook slides safely into its bag with the receiver still attached. You don’t have to worry about losing it or breaking it

		Hyper-fast Scrolling: Fly through long documents with the MicroGear™ Precision scroll wheel. A new concept in PC navigation, this revolutionary alloy scroll wheel operates in two distinct modes: Free-spin Mode for hyper-fast, nearly frictionless scrolling, or Click-to-click Mode for detailed navigation using an ultra-precise ratchet-scrolling mechanism. Fly through hundreds of pages — or move line-by-line — with more precision than ever before.
