HP Mini 110 Series 110-3733TU Review


Typing, handling and the physicality are great on this one from the HP Mini stable in the 110 series. Well, what else are you looking for? It's a netbook and means and works exactly as what the primary specifications say.



Speed

Processor remains the same - Intel Atom Dual Core 1.66 GHz, but the 2GB RAM with a upped 1333MHz one, so easily outperforms others in the class. Not that you should make it your primary PC or depend on it for all your computing needs.

Let's not touch on the specification, they are everywhere on the Internet. I'll just write what I came across while using the HP 110-3733TU.

If I buy it, the first thing I'll do is get rid of the nursery standard OS and get something which is easy on the resources. Read on, I'll tell you why.

For those of who would want, as a result of budget constraint, to make the netbook do your photo-editing jobs or the DSLR slingers, here's the verdict. You won't be able to run the latest Photoshop suites. The minimum screen resolution requirement is 1024 x 800, and the resolution you get in netbooks is just 1024 x 600 pixels. The said software won't even install properly.

So, what's the way out? The easiest option is to go Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. However, there's another word of caution here - DO NOT GO FOR BATCH PROCESSING if you wish to resize photos. Do it the old school way - one by one.

I also tried some video-editing on it. For home videos, it's okay. Nothing more than that. Alternatively, you can dump the entire stuff online and edit it directly on Youtube.

For most purposes, the HP 110-3733TU would suffice, but if you belong to the over-enthusiastic lot, go for a low-end 14" laptop.

Supply Chain Management: All You Need to Know

  Supply Chain for the Common Man The COVID-19 pandemic not only brought infections of unprecedented proportions, but it also brought to fore some business functions that we were blissfully unaware of, until now. Supply Chain — exactly what many people have been asking and looking up on search engines. The answer had to be something that people can relate. But let me ask a question instead — Is there something you wanted to buy, but can’t find it in the market? The answer every time would be a resounding “yes.” Supply chains are what brings a product from the point of assembly or manufacturing to the end user. And what happens from start to end is what supply chain management is all about. Examples Where Supply Chain Management is Utilized You are not here for bookish definitions. True. Neither is supply chain management contained anymore in simple computer programs or on-premise legacy ERP software. Supply chains have been through evolutionary changes in the past few years. ...

High megapixel point-and-shoot camera vs. low-end DSLR

Fully automatic sounds too good. Just hit the shutter release and you are done. Your point-and-shoot camera does it all for you. The best thing about these cameras is also their weak point. It takes all the control off your hands. The output is controlled by the camera. DSLRs on the other hand give you all the control you want. You are in charge of the output as well. However, set the control to AUTO and hand it to your 10-year old. The job is still done.  So, which one's better?  Technically, DSLRs are the best. You can customize the easy-to-use buttons and focus where you want to. Change the lens to meet your requirement, and you call it an upgrade. Point-and-shoot cameras have a fixed lens and they really are no match for the optically superior DSLR lenses.  Are all point-and-shoot cameras really bad?   That isn't true either! When photgraphy skills are questionable, point-and-shoot cameras come in really handy. They offer speed to the user. Ease of use. Easy to...
