Intel Solid-State Drives Now Available Intel Corporation announced that its award-winning Intel® Solid-State Drives (SSDs) are now available in 800 Best Buy stores across the country and on the BestBuy website. SSDs can replace or complement a traditional hard drive in a notebook or desktop PC and deliver noticeably faster computer performance when booting up, opening files and running software applications. With no moving parts, these SSDs deliver greater reliability and consume less power than conventional hard disk drives (HDDs).During the past decade, HDD speed has only improved 1.3 times, while Intel’s processor speeds have improved more than 200 times*. This has caused a system bottleneck that SSDs can help solve. HDDs use a mechanical arm and spinning platter, which can sometimes result in a hard disk crash. An SSD uses flash memory chips and is 100 percent solid state with no moving parts. This makes an SSD extremely rugged, reliable and energy efficient. The biggest benefit is in performance, where an Intel SSD delivers up to 56 percent improvement in system responsiveness for gamers, multimedia enthusiasts or anyone desiring to get more performance out of their new or existing notebook or desktop computer...

REVIEW: Windows 7: The Missing Manual I can honestly say that Windows 7 is Microsoft's best version of Windows to date. It provides an excellent PC experience with speed and simplicity, but it also includes plenty of advanced features as well. And unbelievably, more new functionality has been added. As with past versions, Windows includes a comprehensive Help facility, complete with an Internet-supported knowledgebase, but not one piece of printed documentation is included. If you're like me, you like to have an actual printed manual to hold in your hands and leaf through at your leisure. Reading through Help files is boring and tedious, unless you're looking for a very specific topic. I like to have an actual book that I can read from cover to cover and then later refer to as a reference.
