  2. We live in a technology-driven world today with computers at the center of it.   Computers have become the technology device of almost everyday use for individuals of every age. The only variation in people’s acquisition and use of computers is that some people prefer PCs or desktops while others stick with laptops. This essentially depends on whether one is buying a computer for simple home use or for business.

  3. Whether it’s a PC or laptop you need, here are some Important Things to look for and what to ask when purchasing a new computer: Image via techshout.com

  4. Take a used or refurbished computer.  A refurbished computer is one that has been returned to the company, checked out as good but cannot be sold again as new. All major computer manufacturers have a refurbished section showing all their available refurbished products. Buying one of these computers instead of a new computer can save you hundreds of dollars.

  5. Consider the size.  If portability is your main concern, then you need to consider a notebook that has a smallish screen and a light weight. Any laptop marketed as an Ultrabook should fit your bill here since this is designed to be slim and light.  Look for a laptop with a screen that’s 12.5-13.3 inches in size, and a weight that is from 1-1.5kg.

  6. Look at the screen quality. You’ll be staring at your laptop for many hours every day, so you want to make sure you get a screen that is comfortable to look at. Many laptops these days also have touch screens, which means they are glossy. Glossy screens lead to reflections, so consider a laptop that doesn’t have a touch screen. Image via ecw.com

  7. Look at the resolution.  A 1920x1080-pixel resolution (aka Full HD) should be considered if you want plenty of space to line up windows and keep things in view.  Also, the viewing angles are extremely important.  A laptop screen that touts IPS (in-plane switching) technology offers the widest viewing angles and the best user comfort. If possible, go into a store and see the screen for yourself. Otherwise, rely on multiple reviews to get a good overview of the product.

  8. See the keyboard quality.  For long typing sessions, you must get a laptop that has a comfortable keyboard. You don’t want to get a keyboard that packs in every key under the sun (think keyboards that have squished in number pads) because that can translate to a poor overall user experience when hunting for keys like the arrows. You want a keyboard that has a comfortable layout with full-sized keys and some space around the arrow keys. The keys should have adequate travel on the downstroke and snappy responsiveness when you let them go. Make sure the keyboard is also backlit, so that you can type with an easier view on the keys in dimly lit environments. Image via apcmag.com

  9. Get an all-purpose computer. If you want to do a little bit of everything or plan to share your laptop amongst family members, you can consider anything from an inexpensive 15-incher that mostly stays in your living room to a lightweight 11- or 13-inch system you carry around the house. Whether you’re a traveling executive or a student, your main goal is writing and editing text, manipulating spreadsheets and creating presentations. So you’ll want a laptop with a good keyboard, durable design and sharp screen.

  10. If you play high-end games, go for a laptop with an equally high-end Core i7 processor, top-of-the-line discrete graphics (perhaps even dual cards), a high-res screen and strong speakers.  If you edit video, photos or illustrations for a living, you need a laptop with a powerful processor, discrete graphics, a Solid State Drive (SSD) and a large and high-res display.  If you plan to give your laptop to the kids or use it as an adjunct to your main PC, you can go with a low-cost laptop or a Chromebook that runs Google’s browser-centric OS.

  11. You have to figure out just how portable you need your laptop to be. Laptops are usually categorized by their display sizes. Contact ourBusiness IT Support to get more information and details forPC and Laptop Sales. Please visit www.mscs.com.au
