What laptop is good for computer games like WoW or the Sims 3?

I want to get a new laptop around the mark of $400-$800 or maybe possible lower(but i doubt it) that can run computer games and is good for other things.
Does anyone know a good laptop i could get?

Hi
If you want to use the notebook for gaming, I recommend purchasing one with an external graphic card. Mean the graphic card should not be a part on Intel CPU (Intel HD GPU) but you should choose the notebook with an ATI graphic chip or nVidia GPU.
Check the Toshiba Product page to get more details about notebooks equipped with such GPUs

    There's a chess game in the Applications folder. Otherwise, search a place such as MacUpdate or the Mac App Store for games you're interested in.

  • I have my home movies on VHS, what devices are good for putting them on iMovie, all the devices I have seen are PC only

    I want to put video from VHS to iMovie what devices work with  a Mac? All the ones I have seen are PC only.

    Hi
    There are many to chose from and at different prices and functions.
    I got an CANOPUS ADVC-300 - now named Grass Valley ADVC-300 - but can only be bought secondhanded as it's discontinued.
    AND - it's Expensive !
    Still to me it's been of 100% value due to it's functions. It can repair broken TimeBase-Code and that means that I can import a LONG VHS tape recorded in EP-mode and with drop-outs.
    Cheaper devices = Import will halt at every drop out frames AND Audio will go out of sync.
    • Tedious Baby-sittings when Importing (and multiple re-starting Import)
    • Audio goes out of sync. Tedious labor to by hand correct this !
    Then my A/D-box also came with some rather advanced Picture Enhancing programs/settings.
    So in all - I Love it.
    BUT Surely there are much cheaper solutions for those that
    • makes short VHS Imports
    • New VHS tape Without any Drop-outs (less than a Year old)
    • Patience of an Angle
    OBSERVE ! - If You talk about BOUGHT VHS-tapes as from Disney - FORGET IT - NO A/D-box can break the CopyProtection. And even a theoretical discussion about this is FORBIDDEN in this Forum - as it is a GLOBAL forum and just the discussion is forbidden in countries as Germany etc.

  • What is C++ good for?

    I think it's kind of weird that Microsoft can't build a class designer that displays manged types in C++. Why is it that C++ always comes last out of all of the languages! I know it isn't the most popular language but still, you begin to feel like Microsoft are trying to shut it off so there are only 2 languages, C# and VB. Over the years I have learned to program in C++ because of the pointer functionality and the sense of control you have over your code. Where as in C# you know less about what pointers and memory are doing and as a result it makes it easier to program in C#.
    But then it begs the question what is C++ really good for at the end of the day. There is less and less functionality for it and it's language with many syntax obstacles compared to the easy and quick ways of writing C# code.
    I would really appreciate different sides of the debate because then it might help me to realize that learning all about C++ wasn't such a waste of time after all.
    Thanks in advance

    What is C++ good for?
    simple answer: it's the only language you can use to write real programs with (= for a computer) ... all other "programming" languages are some kind of scrippting tools in my eyes
    but today they even call html and css a "programming" language ... that's like saying "hey, I'm a chef, I know how to cook water"
    it's true, that we should talk about C/C++ and not about C++ alone and it's also true, that there are things in those language which I would like to change... but far less than in C#, Java and VB... oh and by the way: no, it's not complicated,
    it's powerful ... with C/C++ you can program the machine! you can decide what it should do! and you know if you're talking about a pointer, a variable, and integer or what ever...
    and if somebody is passing a string by value... well, then... this person simply isn't a programmer... that's it ...
    so, again... what is C/C++ good for? it's the only way to write computer programs
    that's what I think...

  • What is Java good for?

    I need to develop a really serious solution for Win2K server, that will handle security data. Now I am thinking of a platform to do it. Can Java really secure the data I will trust to store it? I mean various mulfunctions, program bugs, errors, so on. Microsoft really insists on trusting its programs, not Java's (see the installiation guide for Win2K: 'Java cannot be used for medical, technical (for example handling the nuclear enterprises) ...'), so I don't know what to do. Developing a Java solution will be simplier that doing the same thing with VC.Net, but ... What do you think? What is Java good for?

    Microsoft really insists on trusting its programs, not Java'sDo you trust Microsoft?
    (see the installiation guide for Win2K: 'Java cannot be used for medical, technical (for example handling
    the nuclear enterprises) ...'), so I don't know what to do. The nuclear bit is in the Java license ("You acknowledge that Software is not designed, licensed or intended for use in the design, construction, operation or maintenance of any nuclear facility.") I think it's probably either a result of US law requiring some certification or other for software used in nuclear facilities, or a preemptive move by Sun to forestall possible lawsuits.
    The JVM is stable, probably more so than .NET since it's older, and should be suitable for your use, based on the description so far. The things you need to worry about are primarily personnel and hardware configuration (i.e. disabling virtual mem).

  • What is -Xms good for?

    The java option "-Xms" specifies the initial size, in bytes, of the memory allocation pool. But what is it good for, other than the additional memory may be get a little more quickly when
    default size < required size < initial size set with -Xms
    If an application requires more memory, the JVM allocates more memory up to -Xmx.

    okay, but what if i can't predict, how much memory is
    needed? (in my case, the application generates PDF
    files based on dynamic XSL/XML content that could get
    arbitrary big.)
    another point is, that the application should not
    behave "intrusive" by claiming all memory it can get.
    instead it should only claim what it really needs.These are some of the reasons why the JVM, by default, adapts its
    memory usage. If you go and change its behaviour by specifying
    memory usage options then you are of course able to make the JVM
    play unfairly with the available system resources.

  • Exam 70-483 what is it good for?

    what is it good for taking the exam?
    if you have a CS degree and c# experience, yet can you benefit from passing the exam?

    Hey Lemon Sky,
    Degree is very important, but there are businesses that require certificates from Microsoft (this is essential if they are business partners of Microsoft they have several employees with valid certification).
    You explain the title of most logic and the practical aspect based on Microsoft systems, to take the exam should know the system and in a practical and not just theoretical. So it can add a lot.
    This test is part of the third Test categories: MCSD: Windows Store Apps Using C#
    https://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcsd-windows-store-apps-certification.aspx
    If you pass this test, there are 2 more tests you upgrade the current certification
    70-484 -  Essentials of Developing Windows Store Apps Using C#
    70-485 -  Advanced Windows Store App Development Using C#
    Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue

  • What is reflection good for?

    i heard people use reflection with rmi, but what it is good for?
    if i use reflection to figure out what methods etc a class has, how do i know what they do?

    Oh cool, you just gave me an idea!
    Storing bean class names in a db and upon retrieval of any name, a single utility can construct an entire GUI editor panel for any variety of java bean conforming to the Java Bean specifications. This way, if ever I want to add a new Panel to an application for a new module or set of features, all I would hypothetically have to do is create the bean and add the name to the db and load up my app without even having to create the new GUI interface for editing it.
    thanks!
    Oh and one other additional thing reflection is good for, is interfacing with XML config files using the attribute names as identifiers for locating the setters (E.g., Spring Framework) as well as a bunch of other related XML things.
    Your imagination is your only limit. I would excercise caution in where and how you use it though. Usually best to use in initialization routines rather than runtime functions or during exhaustive processes.

  • Is the ipod shuffle or nano good for exercise if you just use the clip on the unit, and connect to your shorts?  if so, does it feel like it's too loose, might fall off?

    is the ipod shuffle or nano good for exercise if you just use the clip on the unit, and connect to your shorts?  if so, does it feel like it's too loose, might fall off?

    I often use my shuffle while exercising, cleaning, and just generally going about my day. Never once has it come unclipped exept for when I got the earbud cord caught on something and got said earbuds yanked out of my ears. I have permanently solved that problem by simply running the cord under my shirt. Works like a charm! I can't answer you about the nano, though I'd say it has a higher likelihood of coming off as it is a bit heavier.

    Open Accounts preferences. Create a new user account with the name and username of your choosing as well as your own password. Be sure to give the new account Admin status. Log out of the old account and log into your new account. Now, delete the old account.

    I changed out my old cell phone for a Motorola zoom and now the zoom has my old phone number associated with it's sim card. I just purchased a Samsung Android cell phone and would like to trade the sim from my new to cell to the zoom so I can have my old cell phone number back. The problem is the sim cards are different sizes. Is this something I can take to a store and get switched out?

    SRCLARK,
    Great question! You can go to the store and get a replacement SIM card at the store. Any corporate store will be more than happy to help replacing your card. http://bit.ly/3SdsA

  • HT4623 Now that iOS is consistently being updated.  Will the 1st Generation IPad be stuck with IOS 5?  Eventually my IPad will be good for nothing as Apps start requiring the updated software.

    Now that iOS is consistently being updated.  Will the 1st Generation IPad be stuck with IOS 5?  Eventually my IPad will be good for nothing as Apps start requiring the updated software.

    The iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1. This is unlikely to change.
    The apps you have will continue to work and there are still many apps which run on iOS 5 (or even earlier iOS levels).
