    High end notebook suggestions

    Is their customer service department different from consumer to business line models? What about forums? Their CS guys do not know anything about troubleshooting. Queries on their forum are not properly addressed either. When I upgraded to WIN7 (upgrade disc provided by Lenovo), the battery...

    High end notebook suggestions

    Thanks to all, esp. Fox5. I'm going to further check those options to see what, if not equals, comes close to Apple quality/performance. I do not need something as thin a profile as macbook air. Macbook profile is fine. The macbook with dualboot might be a good option. This however means I...

    High end notebook suggestions

    Thanks for responses. 1, 000 or less budget. If I'm paying substantially more for small gain not interested in the higher cost model.

    High end notebook suggestions

    Almost 5 years since I've been on here. Used to be an IT guy got into a different industry but still appreciate good performance. I have been using a Lenovo Y550 and ABSOLUTELY HATE IT. POS, cheap quality construction (broken hinges, speaker grill fell off). This is what I get for ordering...

    Internet Video Surveillance/Monitoring/Webcam

    Zstream: From what I understand I think you're right about this system not being very dependent on the video cameras, but rather the setup and the server configuration. I'm going to PM you because I think the server setup you described might work well... thanks

    Internet Video Surveillance/Monitoring/Webcam

    Aeros, Thanks, I did read that before as well [that it supports 8 users] but was wondering in reality how well it can handle that (I hope it does not get too slow). Since this will be used in a commercial application [in a daycare] parents will want it to perform well, all the time, and there...

    Hi, I am looking for advice/leads on a suggested setup for use in a daycare center. A camera will be equipped in each classroom, and we would like to set it up whereby multiple logons would be supported so that parents will be able to view their child's classroom from the internet...

    Need reccomendations on computers for pre-school

    Is #1 a good deal or okay deal you think? I called Dell to ask them what happened to their $299 desktop+flat panel deals, and they said that those are no longer available. Im just a bit disappointed that my starting price is now $169 MORE than those days...

    Need reccomendations on computers for pre-school

    LOL. I agree with you, but these days, parents almost expect it. But there is a lot of learning software that the kids use (reader rabbit, madeline, mathblaster, etc.) Of course the older 5+ kids will benefit more.
