Need to get additional system Laptop or Desktop

I have a Dell 1545 that is having driver issues. I need to take it in to have checked by tech. I have to have a computer as I do call center work. I work off of 2 monitors (1 being an acer and the other the monitor is the laptop) So I am trying to decide price wise, which would be more reasonably priced to buy the tower with a monitor or get another laptop.
Since I just purchased this laptop in January and am having issues, I really do not want to go the dell route. What computer would someone suggest that is affordable and has 64 bit Windows 7 and has set up like the dell 1545?
I have a concussion from head injury and need someone to either take me to the store or order it over the phone to have someone pick up, so I was not sure if a sales person would have time over the phone to discuss this with me.

You can find a fairly cheap quad core desktop with a nice video card. So if you need something that will last a while and not cost too much I would go this route.
If you want a laptop, put yourself in one of these categories: someone who needs high mobility/battery life (14 in screen or smaller), someone who needs high mobility with a big screen (15.4in), or someone who needs a powerful computer with a big screen (17-18.4 in).
Don't worry too much about laptop brands, only a handful of them actually make their own laptops, most of the big brands use the same two or three laptop manufacturers.
Get the most powerful intel processor you can afford, and put either a 9 series nvidia, or an ati radeon 4800 series in, four gb of ram, and a 7200 rpm hard disk.
After that it really comes down to price and personal style, I would stay away from the hp laptops, the brand that they use doesn't do so well making the internal components.
Here are some good picks.
1) ASUS G Series G50VT-X3 (15.4in)
2) Sager 5793 (17in)
3)ASUS N80 Series N80Vn-X5 (14.1in)
Asus actually manufactures their own laptops, and my experience with them has been spectacular. The Sager is a rebranded Clevo, which is one of the brands alienware, falcon northwest, and other high end companies use.

I need to get the system time in Micro second

Hi,
In the java API there is a static method �curentTimeMillis�, but I need
to get the system time in Micro second there is a equivalent method? Or
there exists any suggested solution?
Thanks
Dany

Why do you need such accurate timing ?
I'd be suprised if anyone seriously relies on millisecond timing in
Java, never mind calling through to JNI to get microsecond timing.
If that's even possible in native code.
The garbage collector can cause delays/pauses in a java program and
throw timings off by at least 500 milliseconds, probably more under big loads.
If you just want a more accuruate way to reset a random seed, there's probably other ways...

Owen

Need help choosing the best laptop or desktop for video editing.

Hi guys. I'm a videographer and am in need of upgrading my current Dell Dimension 8300 desktop to either another desktop or a laptop. My current Dell is just too slow. It takes forever to render a video.
Anyhow, what do you guys recommend for video editing? I'd like something with plenty of hard drive space, plenty of memory, and a powerful video card. There are just too many to choose from and was hoping to get some feedback.
Thank you,
Brian

How much Ram do I need? (getting a new laptop, help me please!)

Hi!
So I'm in the market for a new laptop since my current one can't manage at all.
I've found an MSI laptop that I really want :
http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GS70-STEALTH.html#specification
It's a gaming laptop but it's got all the specs I've been looking for and the thiness and lightness of it is just astounding.
The only problem is that it's only able to have 16 GB of RAM, will this be enough?
I mostly use Premiere pro cs6 where I'm confident that 16 GB will be enough, I'm a bit worried about After effects cs6 though. I don't use AE everyday and when I do it's as a hobby but I do still sometimes use it quite a bit, at the same time as running Premiere. And once I get a laptop that can actually handle AE I will probably start using it more.
So what do you think, will 16 GB of Ram be enough?
I am currently using a laptop with only 6 GB (and it's a nightmare, although the other specs of this laptop aren't really worth smiling about either)
I would really appreciate any and all help!

> I just recently realised that the graphic cards in all of the laptops I've been looking at are not supported by neither Premiere pro cs6 nor After effects cs6.
That is not a correct characterization.
The GPUs that you list are supported for use by these applications.
In the case of After Effects, there is one---and only one---feature that doesn't work on the cards that you list... and it's a feature that you don't need to worry about: GPU acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer. That's all.
Put differently:
"IMPORTANT: A common misconception is that After Effects requires CUDA features of one of a specific set of Nvidia GPUs. That is not true. Only the GPU-accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer requires this. The other GPU features work on any GPU that meets certain basic requirements, including AMD and Intel GPUs. See below for details."
(from this page: GPU (CUDA, OpenGL) features in After Effects CS6 and After Effects CC)
The case of Premiere Pro is only somewhat different. You can use all of the features in the application; it's just that some of them will be faster with a certain GPU. Details:
http://blogs.adobe.com/premierepro/2011/02/cuda-mercury-playback-engine-and-adobe-premiere -pro.html
Also, the CC versions of these applications allow you to use any GPU that meets certain requirements for the features described above. It is here that you do enter into "unsupported" territory, because enabling the usage of the GPU for these features can put the system into an untested and unsupported state.

I need help getting my hp laptop to detect my hp wireless printer 3050.

Shouldn't it just pliug in install and my pc should see it out there? Well I had this hooked up at one time and I think something in my settings was changed because now I don't see it out there at all. It detects my printer when it's plugged in by usb. Thats fine. But unplugged, not working. The blue light on the printer is blinking and the report said not connecting. Reset router numerous times. Is there a setting that you know of that I could have changed that would effect this because I was doing something in the homegroup area and could have changed something.

Disconnect the USB cable. Get the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page. Install the software and when it asks, choose Network or Wireless installation type.
It will ask you at some point to plug in the USB cable temporarily. Don't do so until it asks then remove it when it asks.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

What licenses do I need to get a virtual desktop environment up and running?

I’m trying to figure out what licenses I need to get a full Windows Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) up and running with the Remote Desktop Service (RDS) roles.
I have Win.Server 2012 running Hyper-V, which has about 10 different virtual machines (VM) with either Win.7 or Win.8 installed on it. These VMs will act as virtual desktops (VD) for about 200 people to remotely access and use.
My question is, what licenses do I need to support this scenario?
So far, I’m planning to purchase a few Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition with 10 Client Access Licenses ( $1414.19 each). I’m assuming that’s 1 license for the server and 10 Client Access Licenses (CAL) for users who will access the VDs. I’m also planning
to buy about 200 RDS CALs ($149 each) for the rest of the users to access the VDs. Do I need to buy additional licenses for each VM image I create (the 10 images I mentioned earlier)? These VMs are in a pooled virtual desktop collection, so they reset themselves
when users disconnect from them. If I have personal desktop collections which give unique desktops to each user and saves their settings, will my license have to change if I have that too?
At first I thought just buying the RDS CALs will allow me to install windows where ever I want, how many times I want and all I have to worry about is paying for the client access, but do I need to pay for the OS as well? So essentially I’m doubling the
license?
A side question not really related is, if I have Windows Thin PC, (which was said to come free if I have SA with another product) and bought the Windows Server license, does that come with SA and I can install Windows Thin PC as many times as I want
on which ever desktop I have that will connect to this VDI system?

The 10 server licenses are fine, but they don't help you with VDI or remote desktops. I you want to install the Remote Desktop Session Host (formerly known as Terminal Server) role on all your servers und provide remote desktops for your 200 users, 200 RDS
CALs are the right choice (per user or per device).
But if your 200 users have access to virtual desktops, you need 200 VDI licenses. It doesn't matter if you only have 10 virtual desktops if potentially all your 200 users have access to them. VDI licensing is not based on a concurrent model, so every client
that can connect to a VM needs its own license. If Windows 8 Enterprise with SA is on all your client devices, you're set because SA gives users access rights to up to 4 Win8 or Win7 VMs concurrently (local or remote). In addition
it gives them a so-called companion subscription license for personally owned, non-primary devices.
For those primary corporate devices that are without SA, you'll need to purchase a single VDA license for each device that connects to any number of your Win7 or Win8 VMs. The same applies to personally owned devices of users who don't have a primary
corporate device with SA. In other words, BYOD is supported if your primary device is under SA.
For neither VDI/SA nor VDA it does matter if users are connecting to different VM images or only one. Typically, they cannot connect to more than 4 VMs at the same time in order to stay within the licensing limits.

Hard drive died. Cannot uninstall CS3 to remove copy registration. Need to reinstall on new laptop with windows 7 64 bit system, Need to get activation code for CS3 Web Premium.

Thank you Bob.
Just to clarify - in terms of backing up one set of these, would that just be so I had it on disk and didn't need to re-download from Adobe if the installation got corrupted somehow? Or do I need a backup for some other reason?
Thanks

MacBook Pro is a notebook. It is not a laptop
You can get replacement System Discs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and serial number of your Mac available.
If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those -

I downloaded the new 9.? version told my PC to run it. It said to restart my system to take effect. I did. Every time I try to get on line it gives me the message that I need to restart my system. What should I do?

Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

I got a new laptop (Macbook Pro) and my IPhone is synced with my previous laptop. I've recorded dozens of very long (un-emailable) Voice Memos over the last few weeks and need to get them from my IPhone onto my new laptop. How do I do this?

I got a new laptop (Macbook Pro) and my IPhone is synced with my previous laptop (which I no longer have). I've recorded dozens of very long (un-emailable) Voice Memos over the last few weeks and need to get them from my IPhone onto my new laptop.
How do I do this?
(when I click on the Sync option I get the warning: "Are you sure you want to sync music? All existing songs and playlists on the iPhone will be replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library." I fear that if I click this I will lose all of my important Voice Memos as well)

Just to add to what ChrisJ4203 said. You can sync them to your new computer using iTunes by selecting to Include Voice Memos on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing. However, you still need to re-establish syncing with the new computer without iTunes erasing all the iTunes media from your phone (as the warning mentioned).
If you copy your entire iTunes folder (not just your music) from your old computer to your new one, along with other non-iTunes media you may be syncing with iTunes (such as contacts, calendars and any photos synced to your phone from your old computer) by using migration assistant of following one of these methods: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527, then when you sync again with your new computer it will recognize your phone and sync as it did before. You will still have to authorize the new computer for any Apple IDs used to purchase from the iTunes and App stores (in iTunes>Store>Authorize this computer).
After that you can sync your voice memos to your computer as mentioned earlier.
If you want to archive your voice memos before you do anything with iTunes, you can use a 3rd party program such as PhoneView or Touch Copy.
