Laptop power supplies are usually the only thing plugged into a laptop at most times, and as such is prone to accidents and mishaps. A very common incident that happens to them is tripping over the cable. Apple uses an ingenious solution for that very issue, their DC jack is modified in a way that it’s not actually plugged into the computer, but a set of magnets hold it in…

The HDD or Hard Disk Drive is the part of any computer that is usually used as the main file and data storage. It uses magnetic polarisation to hold information on a coated metal plate, which is later read and written by a detector moving above these spinning platters. Laptop hard drives are the same in this manner, the only way they differ from their desktop counterparts is their size…

A laptop keyboard is a delicate instrument on its own and uses quite a few tricks to get its job done. All the keys are designed to be as flat as possible and have as little space in between each other as they can without seriously hindering typing performance. Underneath each button is a scissor like spring that ensures that the user always experience the same force needed to push…

Intel atom dual core is a processor made for people with a bit higher performance expectations than those who accept the sluggish and often disappointing single core. Unfortunately these procesors are not interchangable, which means they’re soldered on the atom motherboard by the manufacturer.

The Intel Atom processor is not a new thing, these chips have been around for three years now and with little modifications you are still using the same piece of design produced in 2007. There are three different models used in low-end netbooks, and a few others in higher price category models. They are different in clock speed and power usage, L2 cache and other bits but the general result is fairly unified; not so powerful.

Atom CPU is a central processing unit from the model range of Intel’s Atom architecture. These processors are made for light-weight notebooks catering for price-sensitive market, but during recession they made their way into the main stream. Now that economy is on its way back to where it was it’s a valid question if we still need Atom processors. We do.

An atom computer is a computer installed with an Intel Atom processor. These processors come in different shapes and sizes (clock speeds and rated power consumption) but the general result is about the same for all of them. These computers are designed for media consumption, browsing online content and watching videos. Fortunately, they’re good for many more things than that.

Intel Atom N270 is a fairly strong processor in its own category. Don’t think that this means you’ll be able to play the latest titles of video games and high definition movies on a netbook fit with it, but for the price and power it uses it’s a fairly good construction.
