“Should I Get a Laptop or a Desktop PC?”~by Blair Wiley of Wiley Computer Works |
|
Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 06/04/2012 01:14 PM
|
Buying a new computer is a bit like buying a new car. The various options, opinions and possibilities may seem fun to some people, but it may seem daunting to others. You can shop to your heart’s content and enjoy the thrill of the search-and-acquisition, or you can ask for expert guidance because rather than fun, it can be confusing – and it most likely is. You can also do both, meaning ask for advice and then go shopping on your own....

Should I get a Mac or a PC?” I get asked this a lot~by Blair Wiley of Wiley Computer Works |
|
Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 05/15/2012 09:07 AM

Let’s examine this from a few different angles, but I think the most important factor is, what do most of the people you collaborate with use? In communication, in collaboration and in mutual support, different isn’t better. “Different” would be like this... You’re on a committee of people who all speak English, but one of the members has such a thick Scottish accent that no one can understand him very easily. Soon the person who is different becomes less and less a part of the work group and ends up .....

Computer Tune Ups – The Reason to Be Thorough (Emptying the Glitch Bucket)~by Blair Wiley of Wiley Computer Works |
|
Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 05/04/2012 09:42 AM
|
When your computer runs slowly, this can be caused by several different things.
1) Even if nothing bad happens to a computer, it will still run more slowly after some time, not because it wears out or runs down, but simply because the world around it changes and these changes work their way into the computer through updates. I’m sure you’ve seen them – LOTS of updates. This is necessary in order for the computer to remain working with the changing world and to protect it from new threats like modern viruses. (This is why, when purchasing a new computer, you might want to consider how “future proof” it is based on the quality of its parts, which affects how long it .....

Free PC Software Top Picks Part 1 of 5 – Anti-Virus Software~By Greg Douglas |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 05/25/2010 07:52 AM
|
| I have always been a proponent of free PC software (freeware), especially Anti-Virus software. I’ve never liked the notion that you have to pay someone just to protect your PC from the vulnerabilities of Viruses and Spyware. Unfortunately, Anti-Virus software is a life necessity, but it doesn’t have to break the bank for good protection. Most new PC’s do come pre-loaded with some form of Anti-Virus software, but usually these are time limited trial versions that will expire within 30-90 days. Once expired, your PC will once again become vulnerable to new threats as the program will no longer update the virus database until you pay for a subscription. PC manufacturers provide these trial versions in the hope that you.... |

This Week on "Tech Talk".....Windows 7. Ready, or not?~With Blair Wiley of Wiley Computer Works |
|
Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 02/13/2010 04:28 PM
|
A couple of weeks ago, I read on Comcast.net an article called The Top Ten Things Not To Buy in 2010. Two of the recommendations had to do with computers. Last time, I talked about the first of these two items: backups. The article said not to buy an external hard drive for backups. I agree with this, but it's an oversimplification in a big subject. I covered the pros and cons of many backup techniques, and explained the set of items that I recommend as a way to protect your data from a hard drive crash and other catastrophes.....

"Tech Talk"~With Blair Wiley of Wiley Computers |

Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 02/01/2010 10:26 AM

The other day, I read on Comcast.net an article entitled 10 Things You Shouldn't Buy in 2010. Two of the items had to do with computers. Since computers have crept into so many people's lives to the point of unanticipated dependence (like the horseless carriage did a century ago), I think it's important to hear opinions about these subjects. Item number 4 on the list was don't buy an external hard drive. (My opinion: Mostly true.) I mostly agree with this because people will rely on it where it's unreliable, which is protecting your data. You shouldn't singularly depend on an external hard drive to back up your important and irreplaceable documents, photos, financial ....

Getting Rid of Your Old Computer~by Mark Kirkendall of Calaveras IT |
|
Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 07/22/2009 09:39 AM

So you just pulled your shiny new computer out of the box, set it up, copied data from your old computer and can't believe how fast the new one is. So now comes the question, what are you going to do with your old computer? Maybe you can give it away or donate it. Maybe it was so messed up you're just going to throw it away. ...
