Need a new pc for developing windows desktop apps

I'm in need of a new PC for using visual studio on
I'm still learning c# but I'm constantly traveling so i don't get much chance to practice
i was thinking about the surface pro 3 i3 as it seems well suited to traveling and is the cheapest model available only
problem is that even the i3 is quite expensive and id still need to get a type cover with that
are there any ways to get this cheaper or a cheaper alternative (not the surface pro 2 as i hate its kickstand) as i was looking for something within the £400 - £500 price range
didn't know where to ask this
thanks

Even if the question is offtopic. If you want to use your device during your travel (ie. in a train, bus, ...) a Notebook is a better choice instead of a Tablet PC like MS surface. You should find in the 400-500GBP range a lot Notebooks that are good for
developing and mobile usage.
If you want to spend lot of money, get a THinkpad Yoga. But this is a device in the ~1000GBP range, but it is a convertable, small, not very heavy, perfect for traveling with it. But you will also find small Notebooks from Samsung, Toshiba, but at least
if it is an Ultrabook, you are in the upper price range.
Best regards

  • I need a new router for my MacBook Pro, OS 10.9.3

    Need a new router for OS 10.9.3 and found that Linksys E2500 is not compatible. Any suggestions for a moderately priced router that will work for a 2300 square foot home and patio? Thanks!

    It depends on what your idea of moderately priced is... however, I would go with the 6th generation Apple AirPort Extreme -> http://store.apple.com/us/product/ME918LL/A/airport-extreme?fnode=4d.
    It's a joy of a router and so simple to configure with the AirPort Utility. Unlike some routers, where the setup takes a network genius to configure and maintain, you can access all the settings you need through the utility. I've had dozens of routers in my lifetime but the 6th generation AirPort Extreme beats them all, hands down, and is well worth the extra money that it may cost. It's also 'future-proof,' so if you buy a machine that utilizes 802.11ac Wi-Fi technology, you'll be set.
    I can't recommend it highly enough.

  • I need an new Fan for my MacPro

    Hi,
    i need a new Fan for my MacPro only the Fan because with the ball-bearing its something wrong when it's slow rotage (about 500rpm) it makes .klack*..klack...
    I dont won't to send the Mac away for two Weeks only for replace the Fan.
    (i don't have two)
    I think i have warranty beacuse i have bogth it on Nov 10, 2006.
    It's possible that Apple send me only the Fan? It's that behind Memory expansion Slots.
    It will be cheaper and easyer for both sides.

    my only concern is that unless they inspect it themselves, i don't think they'd be willing to just send you a new one, because they don't know that you actually need one. I think they'd be suspicious, possibly thinking that you just want to sell the fan to someone else. However, they may work with you on this. I suggest you call Apple.

  • I need a new screen for my i phone 3 gs how much is it in the uk

    i need a new screen for my i phone 3 gs how much is it in the uk

    Apple does not repair iPhones, but will replace the entire iPhone for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/
    There are independent iPhone repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "iPhone repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPhone serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further warranty will be void.

  • Does the iphone 6 need a new SIM for Apple Pay?

    There appears to be some disagreement on this issue. I activated my AT&T iphone 6 by putting my ip5 sim in the new phone. Everything works normally, but I got a text message from AT&T saying that my phone needed a new sim for all network features to work properly. Some people have been told by AT&T that this has to do with NFC/Apple Pay, that even though Apple Pay is built into the phone itself, it still needs some kind of special secure SIM to authenticate the phone or something. Does anyone have a definitive answer either way? It's not a big deal to just go to an AT&T store and get a new SIM before Apple Pay rolls out, but after experiencing a major activation headache on launch day, I'm reluctant to "fix what ain't broke", so to speak.

    I've read nothing that indicates you'll need a new SIM for Apple Pay. However, it seems as if the easiest thing to do is to wait until it rolls out, and see if the SIM you have works. It's not as if being unable to use Apple Pay for a day or two should be a big problem.

  • HT1688 I need a new battery for my AT&T Apple I 5 phone , I need to make appt for tonite at Destiny Syracuse for 6:30 and I cannot download safari on my computer to make a reservation.

    I need a new battery for my AT&T Carrier, Apple I 5 phone, need to come in 6:30 tonite.  Thanks.  My cell phone dead. SO please write me back to confirm.

    No, maybe you should get one but the reset of us can figure out how to use the internet and complex things like Google.
    What makes you think you need a new battery anyway? It should not be bad on an iPhone 5 and besides which Apple uses batteries from the same manufacturer that other makers do.
    And stop shouting at us you are acting like a spoiled child.

    If you have WiFI which is not something extremely specific, and I believe it is not - you are fine with network, just go and buy you a computer and enjoy.

  • Windows App Certification Toolkit fails on Certification requirements for Windows desktop apps Point 5.5

    Using the latest Version 3.4 of Windows App Certification Toolkit to check Windows 8.1 compatibility our Installer was not approved on:
    Certification requirements for Windows desktop apps
    5.5 Your app installer must create the correct registry entries to allow successful detection and uninstalls
    But all necessary settings are done and after the installation of our application we will find all settings in the registry.
    We use an MSI Installer embedded in a bootstrapper exe. The MSI Installer is made with the WiX Toolset V3.6.
    The same Application Installer got approved on November, 2014.
    We checked this issue against the latest version of MSThreatModelingToolkit installer which also was made with WiX toolset and it fails, too.
    So is there a higher restriction or do we miss anything?

    Hi Wibudev,
    I would suggest you to double check if you have miss something in registry, per documentation mentioned, the installation module must create the following registry entries during installation:
    DisplayName
    InstallLocation
    Publisher
    UninstallString
    VersionMajor or MajorVersion
    VersionMinor or MinorVersion
    WACK 3.4 is the latest version, I don't think there would be any higher restriction but I will recommend you to test with another computer to see if the validate fails again. Sometimes the issue could be on the PC environment.

  • Need a new mothherboard for Equium A60

    I have tried suggestions given in the forum but am still struggling, I think I need a new mothherboard for Equium A60, I have searched the Toshiba site but tere does'nt seem to be any links or place where it says you can buy one from, HELP!

    As far as I know you cannot order notebook parts directly from Toshiba.
    You can do it in some independent electronic store, maybe by Toshiba authorized service provider or on eBay. I recommend you to check eBay. There you can find lot hardware components for different Toshiba notebooks.
    With a little bit luck you can find mainboard for your notebook model too.

  • I need a new battery for my Iphine 4S

    i need a new battery for my Iphine 4S,,i looked on amazon but not apple brand

    Apple only replaces parts through their stores. I reccomend making a genius bar reservation first to see if there is a hardware problem covered under warrenty. If you have applecare and your battery has failed, they will replace it for free, if not it is 79.00. In fact I just went in due to problems with my 5's battery, they replaced it immediatly for no charge. It takes about a half hour at an authorized store.
