Word is useful

Filed under: PC

I just made a full review and correction with the blogs I have written. By the help of Kingsoft Powerword (a dictionary software) and Microsoft Word. I found Word is so useful in writing English articles. It can help you to find and correct nearly every spelling and simple grammar mistakes :)

DIY, Where to go?

Filed under: PC

Today my new PC is coming by which I will continue to write the blog in the next days. It’s a lenovo PC (called legend before) and belongs to business series. The black and silver color make it looks very professional although I’m not very satisfied with it because of its imbalanced configure: a Celeron-D 2.66G CPU(of course not the fastest but enough for me), an 80g hard disk, a DVD-ROM driver, but only has 256m ram. And because its graphic card is integrated into main board so some ram (about 16m to 64m) must be allocated to this. So the actual ram I can use is really poor. You know that my old P3 laptop has 512m and I always felt not enough and think of upgrading to 1G sometimes. Maybe after weeks I should submit an application for ram upgrade :)

The deliver time is ok. In fact it only cost less than 48hours. I don’t know how about dell but can it be more quickly?

The price? I don’t know the exact number but it’s not the most important thing when a company considers buying a new PC. In fact the stabilization, the after service, even the color theme may be more important.
Then, where will DIY (do it yourself) go tomorrow? I think it can only be alive in two areas. One is college just because the price. Yeah, the students are always searching and comparing over the internet and try to use the less money to make the better goods. DIY is a very easy and interesting way for them. After they leave the school and get salary, most of them will just make a call and get a produced PC, for convenience.

The other part is fans. They are always chasing after the top-level hardware and try to make some speed records (or of the world, or of self). Just for the speedup of 1 MHz, they will throw away the classic CPU-cooler and buy a water-cooldown device which is very expensive.

Students and the fans, that’s the only supporter of DIY tomorrow.
