Tips for buying Laptops


Laptops have become a necessity these days. Used laptops are seen as a viable option to own a laptop at a very affordable price. These are the laptops that have been used by a person for sometime and sold for some reasons. Even if the laptop is used for a single day, it is called as a used laptop.


The reasons for purchasing used laptops are many. The main reason is that, it is available at a cheaper rate than the retail price of any new laptop. The availability of used laptops has increased owing to the recycling legislation that makes discarding of old PCs very expensive. Also used monitors are used for photo editing as the CRT monitors provides ultimate color purity than the LCD monitors for editing colors.


When purchasing a used laptop it should both serve functionally and at the same time save money. Doing a little amount of research by comparing and weighing various options from different kinds of sources will help in achieving the aim to buy used laptops at the best possible price. The price of the used laptop should coincide with the features. Internet serves as a good source for searching used laptops.


The working condition of the used laptop is of utmost importance. Normally it is not recommended to buy a laptop, which is more than three years old, for the reasons that either the system would have become outdated, or the user may not be able to run the latest applications and soft wares on it.


The features on the used laptops are the next important thing to be taken into consideration. The speed of the used laptop needs to be checked as used laptops run at a lower speed than the normal desktops with the same processor. Used laptop with less than 128 MB memory is not at all recommended for buying. The screen size, resolution and definition are other important factors in a laptop. Portability of used laptops is also taken into consideration. Laptops these days are getting slimmer and lighter. The weight of the backpack and, accessories should be kept in mind along with the weight of the used laptop to see if it is comfortable to carry. It is wise to purchase an extra battery while buying used laptops as the battery life of any laptop can be only for two years time.


While buying used laptops, checking should be done if it has a wireless connectivity, if not at least should have an external wireless card, since connectivity to the internet and intranet is very common these days. Select the one with a longer range and greater speed. Check for a USB ports as older laptops may not have them. The more the USB ports the more convenient it is. Also the hard drive of the used laptop needs to be more than 20 GB. The higher hard drive space of the used laptop purchased depends on the budget of the buyer. These days, songs and movies are stored in the laptops requiring larger hard disk space. The most important thing is to buy a used laptop from a reputed dealer so that the purchaser can get a warranty on it.

the history of Laptops





An ultraportable IBM X31 with 12" screen on an IBM T43 Thin & Light laptop with a 14" screen

HCL's $329 miniature notebooks with 6" TFT touchscreens launched in India on January 29, 2008.

A laptop computer, or simply laptop (also notebook computer, notebook and notepad) is a small mobile computer, which usually weighs 2-18 pounds (around 1 to 8 kilograms), depending on size, materials, and other factors.

Laptops usually run on a single main battery or from an external AC/DC adapter that charges the battery while also supplying power to the computer itself. Many computers also have a 3 volt cell to run the clock and other processes in the event of a power failure.

Laptops contain components that are similar to their desktop counterparts and perform the same functions, but are miniaturized and optimized for mobile use and efficient power consumption, although typically less powerful for the same price. Laptops usually have liquid crystal displays and most of them use different memory modules for their random access memory (RAM), for instance, SO-DIMM in lieu of the larger DIMMs. In addition to a built-in keyboard, they may utilize a touchpad (also known as a trackpad) or a pointing stick for input, though an external keyboard or mouse can usually be attached.

testimonials

I bought a second hand IBM Thinkpad from Rajubhai about 3 years ago
No problems till date

Then suddenly there was sparking from the adapter and my screen went blank
Next day I took the laptop to Rajubhai for repair

He sent it up for diagnosis
Report: The power cord needs to be changed
He changed the power cord and it was as good as new now

He did not charge

what u must know

the majority of computer repair shops are staffed with either incompetents or out-right crooks. (See: PC-World). Much like the old T.V. repair business or some auto repair places that are run by folks that know little more than you about TVs or cars, or if they are technically inclined, they may realize their customers are easily fooled into paying for repairs they don't need.

As PC-World found out in their recent undercover study of both nationwide computer service centers and small "Mom and Pop" computer shops, that somewhere around 80 or 90 percent of them either couldn't fix the problem or sold them hundreds of dollars of unneeded parts. That's eight or nine out of ten!

In my opinion, incompetents should get out of the business and the crooks should be drawn and quartered. After spending over 25 years designing, building and servicing all types of computer systems, I have absolutely NO respect for those who would degrade my profession. See: Watch Out! for a sad but so typical story.

How Can I Tell the GoodFrom the Bad?
That's the sixty-four-thousand dollar question! Just because a computer shop looks sharp and well-organized does not insure they are competent and honest. Conversely a dark messy shop doesn't necessarily indicate any lack of talent or skills.

One of the best ways to find quality computer service is to ask around, and one of the best places to ask is the local ISP "Internet Service Provider". ISPs deal with hundreds of service needs, from their customers, each year. Ask the local ISP if they sell or service computers! If they do, their advice may be somewhat suspect. If they don't, you can bet they know the best computer repair places around. If you are a customer of a local ISP give them a call, if not, check your yellow pages and call two or three local Internet Service Providers.

A few more things that may help you find a competent technician to entrust with your computer:
Ask them how long they have been in business. 10 years is a good start!
Check with the Better Business Bureau about a particular computer business.
Make sure you receive ALL your old parts back.
You may even want to put a distinctive mark on some of the more expensive components inside your computer, such as; the hard drive, the main board, memory, video card, etc. (Please note: Before you open your computer see
Under the Hood).

Ask for a written statement about how they will treat your computer and it's data. (See our following policy statement, as an example.)

Chip Level Repair







CHIP LEVEL REPAIR TECHNOLOGY IN IT INDUSTRIES
Every year thousands of Desktop PCs, Servers, Printers, Laptops etc are being sold and these Electronics Products becomes faulty/defective during warranty as well as after warranty. As it is well known that in the First World Countries, the MNC Companies have monopoly on their products and as such they have tried to dominate the Concept of USE and Throw, secondly the cost of manpower in repairing the faulty devices are so high that the Chip Level Repair Technology can not be justified.
As a result these MNC companies who are the manufacturers of Computer Systems and its Peripherals have never favoured the development of the Components Level Repair so that they can sell a complete PCB Assembly of any peripherals at high price.But in the developing and third world countries like India, the scenario is totally different due to low manpower cost and economical status. People have a tendency to get the Electronics peripherals repaired as long as possible.AVJ has been in Repair Technology of IT Peripherals at Components Level since eleven years. It took a long dedicated Research and Development to make Repair Technology feasible in India. The whole repairing can be done at 80% less cost then Card level. So the scope of Component Level Repairing is increasing day by day.Thousands of Hardware Training Institute have come up in these two decade to produce hardware Engineers for Card Level roubleshooting the faulty systems.
Presently there are more than 2 lakhs Hardware Engineers working in Eastern India. But very few or rather none have come up in the field of Chip Level Repair Technology.

ADVANTAGE OF CHIP LEVEL ENGINEER OVER CARD LEVEL HARDWARE ENGINEER

The advantages of chip Level Engineer over Card Level Engineer will always be there because of better troubleshooting knowledge by understanding the measurements of parameters of ICs and discrete components of which each peripherals are made of.For example, a DMP printer's have logic card problem, which will cost about Rs. 3000/- for a new Logic Card in order to Service it, so a Card Level Engineer will suggest to the customers to buy a new printer's logic card where as a Chip Level Engineer will suggest to repair the faulty logic card at approx. Rs. 500/- and bill at Rs. 1500/- to the customer. Therefore the demand for the Chip Level Repairing is there all over India.

REMUNERATION OF CHIP LEVEL REPAIR ENGINEER
A Chip Level Repair Engineer will get highest salary in any firm a compared to Card Level Hardware Engineer. So those who know the Chip Level Repair Technology are the prestigious and elite ones. Generally any Hardware Engineer who after learning Chip Level Repair Technology should get an increment of about 25%-30% on his salary.

Laptop fundamentals

A laptop computer, or simply laptop (also notebook computer or notebook), is a small mobile computer, which usually weighs 2-18 pounds (1-6 kilograms), depending on size, materials, and other factors.

A laptop computer is much smaller than a desktop. Laptops usually run on a single main
battery or from an external AC/DC adapter which can charge the battery while also supplying power to the computer itself. Many computers also have a 3 volt cell to run the clock and other processes in the event of a power failure.

As personal computers, laptops are capable of the same tasks as a
desktop computer, although they are typically less powerful for the same price. They contain components that are similar to their desktop counterparts and perform the same functions, but are miniaturized and optimized for mobile use and efficient power consumption. Laptops usually have liquid crystal displays and most of them use different memory modules for their random access memory (RAM), for instance, SO-DIMM in lieu of the larger DIMMs. In addition to a built-in keyboard, they may utilize a touchpad (also known as a trackpad) or a pointing stick for input, though an external keyboard or mouse can usually be attached.
