Notebook also has some advantages and disadvantages. Here are the advantages possessed by the notebook :
1. Faster performance
Notebook uses Intel Dual Core processor or at least other brands such as AMD Athlon same level or Turion. Speed is also 2.1 GHz or more, allowing users to use a notebook PC as usual to work hard enough as graphic design, video editing and so on. In addition, it can also be used to perform work that is multitasking. That is, you can run more than one or two courses in it and the performance of the notebook will still be able to walk normally.
2. Larger screen sizes
With a larger screen size (14-15 inch) to make laptop users will not get tired when looking at the screen. Details of existing objects on the desktop notebook will be seen more clearly so that the eye is not going to work hard to see it.
3. Peripheral fuller
Striking differences in the availability of peripherals in notebooks and netbooks are the optical drives like DVD-RW in the notebook, while at the netbook does not exist. With the larger size makes the notebook notebook has a place available to put an optical drive so users do not need to use CD / DVD-RW externally. The location of the optical drive is a variety, there are on the right side, left or on the surface parallel to the keyboard, depending on the brand notebook.
4. The keyboard is more spacious
The size of the larger keyboard on the notebook so that the distance between the buttons larger. This will allow users to type so that when fewer typos.
While the disadvantages that the notebook you can note the following explanation :
1. Higher prices
For some people, the price of notebook currently tend to be expensive. Therefore, the reason for the price of a basic factor that makes buying a notebook user carry out the attack. The price of a notebook with a high specification of at least $ 500. Prices are still relatively expensive in the community. The solution is usually to reduce or limit the existing features such as smaller size of the RAM, hard drive size is reduced, or purchase without using the OS (the consequence is the user to install the OS itself).
2. Battery life is not long
Usually the notebook battery does not last long. In general, it usually can use a maximum of 2-3 hours even if the notebook uses a 6 cell battery. This is because the hardware making up the notebook to "eat" a lot of energy like the use of high specification processors such as Intel Dual Core, Intel Core 2 Duo, AMD Athlon, Turion. Another factor is the activity performed on notebooks also "suck" greater energy such as editing photos or video.
3. Greater weight and weight
It comes with a fairly complete hardware like a desktop computer, notebook has a weight heavier than a netbook, especially when compared with iPad / Samsung Galaxy Tab. With the large size of this will require a special bag to carry a notebook to be safe from shock. In addition, the notebook is not practical when taken traveling.
Using the netbook has some advantages and disadvantages. Here are the advantages possessed by the netbook :
A. Longer battery life
They are designed for high mobility, battery on a netbook is a source of energy and become an important component of its existence. If not using the battery, the netbook into a gadget that is not practical to carry anywhere because they have to use the power cord as a source of energy.
In general, netbooks use batteries with a capacity of two types, namely 3 cell and 6 cell. 3 cell battery has a capacity of 2000 mAh, while the 6 cell has a capacity of 6600 mAh. Differences will affect the capacity of battery life when the netbook is being used. With 6 cell battery (5-6 hours) will be able to last longer than the 3 cell (1-3 hours). Battery 6 cell shape is more prominent than the 3 cell because the cell has to contain more energy than the 3 cell.
B. Small size easy to carry anywhere
The screen size for netbooks is actually no fixed rule, but usually ranges measuring between 7 to 10 inch. although with a smaller screen size, it can give a clear and excellent image sharpness. Resolution supported by the netbook is up to 1024 x 600 pixels so that your activity will not be disturbed and the internet web page will appear in their entirety. Another advantage is due to the small size and light weight will allow you to bring to anywhere, let alone those of you who have a high mobility of the use of the netbook will facilitate your activities when the need to access the internet anywhere and anytime.
C. low price
The price of a netbook is generally under $ 400 or even some that cost only $ 200. This is certainly a solution for people who need a portable computer, but have a limited gadget. The low price is certainly related to the specifications of netbooks that are used for light work such as typing in office, email, browsing, chat, play music, videos. Netbooks can not be used for large jobs such as graphic design, video editing.
Netbook for $ 200 are usually not equipped with OS (Operating System) specific. If there is, usually using the open source OS such as Linux with various variants distronya. As for the netbook for $ 300, it usually comes with the OS like Windows XP or Windows 7 version of the beginner. For netbook is priced at $ 400 or more, usually equipped with the latest OS like Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate editions.
While the disadvantages that the netbook is as follows :
A. incomplete peripheral
With the cheaper price, small size and light weight, has its own consequences, namely the availability of notebook peripherals are not as complete. Such as lack of DVD-RW, because the small size of netbooks makes no place for DVD-RW to be placed in it
Since there is no DVD-RW This resulted in users not able to transfer data into CDs or DVDs. As a solution, netbooks provide more than one USB port for an external DVD-RW if it will burn data to CD or DVD. Consequently, the user must pay extra to buy an external DVD-RW. In addition, the user must provide a special place when traveling if you want the data transfer process can be done.
B. Slower pace
In general, netbook intel atom processor with a speed of between 1:33 to 1.66 GHz. Processors of this type are not energy efficient and fast heat, but the drawback is slower performance than the processor used in notebook. Because of this delay, the netbook can not work optimally for the type of work multitasking. Also impact on jobs that require large energy such as graphic design. If you use such force to the graphic design then the netbook would work harder so that their power will be quickly exhausted, and its implications netbook will not last long and wear down more quickly.
C. The size of a small screen and keyboard
Small size of netbooks that will affect the size of a small screen anyway. Small screen size will certainly force the eyes to look at existing content on the desktop to the more carefully so that lead the eye to be more tired.
In addition, the size of a small netbook also has an effect on the size of a small keyboard. On netbook keyboards are not as wide as the existing keyboard on a notebook or desktop computer. The buttons on netbooks will likely take more dense than a notebook. It is certainly not convenient, especially for those of you who have a large size fingers. Perhaps the process of typing can be difficult and likely to happen any type will be even greater. The size of a small screen and keyboard can be one of the basic reasons why the user does not choose a variant of this portable computer.
To overcome this, the user can use a desktop computer keyboard that plugs into the netbook using a USB port. Consequently, again you have to pay extra to buy a keyboard.
Most of the would have understood by the term notebook. Then how about a netbook or a tablet PC? Although for some functions of the three have in common, but there are several things that distinguish between the three gadgets are, among others :
Size and Weight
The size of a fundamental thing that distinguishes among the three gadgets. Tablet PC has a size smaller than most notebook and netbook. In general, the netbook has a screen size of between 7 to 10 inches, while the notebook has a screen size of more than 10 inches. This will affect the weight of each gadget, netbook has a weight of less than 1 kg, while the netbook has a weight of more than 1 kg.
ipad which is one of the popular tablet PC has a length of 24.3 cm and width 19 cm or slightly smaller than A4 size paper with 1.3 cm thick and weighs 680 grams. Instead, Samsung Galaxy Tab has a smaller size, with a length of 19 cm and 12 cm wide and 1.2 cm thick and weighing 380 grams or about half the weight ipad.
ipad has a wide screen at 9.7 inches with a resolution of 768 x 1024 pixels image. Meanwhile, Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 inch screen size and resolution is only 600 x 1024 pixels image. screen size and resolution of a larger way, ipad really spoil the eye to watch movies when compared to the Samsung Galaxy Tab.
hardware
Netbooks typically use the intel atom processor that is energy efficient. Netbook is also equipped with RAM starting with a capacity of 512 to 1 GB. Equipment shall be available on netbooks is Wi-Fi is used for internet access. Storage media using a SSD (Solid State Drive) are more energy efficient than the usual hard drive.
Notebooks use a more powerful processor than the netbook, such as Dual Core, Core 2 Duo, Turion, or the latest variant of Core i. RAM memory is also larger in size ranging from 1 to 2 GB so as to produce better performance than netbooks.
While the tablet PC, the processor used, among others, from intel with intel mobile processors. The first was released in January 2006 with the Napa platform (Centrino Duo), which is the third generation of the Centrino platform. Then in July 2007, launched the fourth generation Centrino platform (Santa Rosa platform). Later in the month of January 2010, the sixth generation of the Centrino platform, Calpella platform is launched, the support of the QuickPath Interconnect (integrated memory controller), DDR3-1600 RAM.
Other peripherals
Another difference is the presence of peripheral fittings provided. Peripherals in the notebook are generally more complete than the netbook and ipad. On netbooks usually do not come with optical drives such as DVD-RW, so if you want to burn a CD or DVD, must use an external DVD-RW which can be plugged into the netbook via a USB port is provided.
While on ipad, not equipped with an optical drive so you can not run a CD or burning a CD in it.
battery
One important factor for a portable computer is the use of a battery in it. Because it is used anywhere and at any time, of energy-efficient battery usage is required.
Netbook battery can be used for longer between 3 to 6 hours, while the notebook battery to full capacity can be used up to about 4 hours.
Apple claims that the iPad can be worn for 10 hours nonstop, while Samsung claims that the Galaxy Tab can be used for 7 hours straight.
price
Netbook prices tend to be cheaper when compared to the notebook or tablet PC. Netbook prices range from less than $ 400, while the notebook can be above $ 400 or even up to $ 1000. On a tablet PC, iPad has priced between $ 500 to $ 800 and Samsung Galaxy Tab around $ 700.
What is a notebook?
One gadget that is widely used today is the notebook or the community often refer to the term "Laptop". Actually, both terms are the same. Notebook as desktop computers, but it is portable or easily carried to other places.
Notebook has a screen size of 10 inch and above, the average is 14 inch. The processor used is a dual core intel classmate until the latest one is intel core i3, i5, i7, and is equipped with a DVD / CD ROM. Notebook can be used just like ordinary desktop computers, among others, for editing images using Photoshop or CorelDRAW, video editing with Ulead Studio, create documentation with Camtasia Studio videos, watch movies, office documents and business processes, and so forth.
What is a netbook?
of his name which adopted the term "Net", a gadget that is designed for users to surf is fun anywhere. Netbooks have a small display, the screen size from 7-10 inches, and with battery life up to 5-9 hours (one charging). Most netbooks intel atom processor uses the same class (eg, intel atom N270, N280) that require less power than the processor intel core class. This makes the netbook has a battery life long enough. feature on a netbook is devoted to those users who need internet access anytime and anywhere. Also, it can be used for word processing such as typing reports, papers, papers, and so forth. Because it uses intel atom processor that in fact has less power than the intel processor class core, this gadget is less appropriate when used to run applications or programs that are quite heavy.
Onslaught of netbook users, began when Asus launched the Eee PC in late 2007. Its a tempting when it is accompanied with a very affordable price for the community, making users willing to queue to get the gadget. After that, Asus launched the Eee PC family of different versions, followed by another vendor who issued the other netbook manufacturers.
What is a Tablet PC?
Tablet PC is one gadget that is shaped like a book, by adopting a touch screen that allows users to use such a pen or digital pen or stylus that functions much like a mouse or keyboard on the computer desktop.
The screen on any tablet PC that can be rotated up and down so that the position of the keyboard can be ground or in your lap facing you and the screen position to sleep face up. In addition, it can also play like a motion to move the shoulder, up to 360 degrees.
Now this, which is quite popular among users is ipad issued by Apple, and Samsung Galaxy Tab issued by Samsung.

Slow computer boot process usually occurs because of the many programs installed and runs automatically when Windows starts up. although it can see what applications or programs are running, but you do not know how long it takes.
There are a few tips to shorten boot times, namely:
- Delete some unneeded programs, especially those consuming large memory.
- You delay some programs are not important on windows startup.
- Remove spyware and viruses that are infecting your PC.
If the third way is still felt his slow boot times, you need to consider how the four, that is by installing a software application called Startup Delayer.
This program, you can download for free on the site: http://www.r2.com.au/page/products/show/startdelay.
This program serves to delay the program to run at startup list. If you have many programs in the startup list, you can set the time of execution of the program so that it will speed up boot time windows.
