A little while ago my old laptop needed replacing, it was over 3 years old and the battery had a 10 little fee life and the charger was needing to be replaced. A quick visit to eBay and for less than 0 Australian a new Toshiba laptop was delivered.
About the same time I visited a friend who had spent over ,500 Australian on a laptop from a large electrical retailer. My friend in general uses the laptop to check emails and originate simple word documents, I was thinking that maybe a ,500 laptop was extravagant to their needs.
As a web page designer and narrative writer I feel that my 0 laptop completes my tasks with complete ease.
Most visitors to my manufacture Website Blog are beginning their studying path, my blog covers data in regards to content, domain names, web hosting and Seo. I though why shouldn't computer hardware and software be covered to, after all it is what is use to browse, establish and submit our work.
As you can see I don't think bigger is better, the 0 laptop has Vista as the operating system, 2Gb of ram, 160Gb of Hard Drive and the Cpu is a Celeron 2.2Ghz. The tasks that this laptop needs to undertake are, web browsing of course, simple photo editing (cropping, resizing and compressing for the web), text editing and when I just want to be slack, my favourite game.
Now you know what hardware I use for my web design, I will now run through of my list principal software;
- Web browsers - Ie8, Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari. So we can check that the page views Ok over a variety of platforms.
- Gimp - For my photo editing.
- Dreamweaver Mx 2004 - in general used in text editing mode, and I like the site manager.
- Xampp - Xampp creates a server on my Pc so I can originate a full working page so it can be tested before I upload
- Fireftp - A Firefox plugin to change files.
- And the last an most used software is windows notepad - I am using it now as I am writing this article. My Blog and EzineArticles have a feature where I can copy and paste text in to the "new post" form.
The above are my choices for hardware and software, some of you may like to use a desktop motor and would prefer to use a graphical interface to originate your pages. I would like to know, and I assume that some the readers of my blog would be concerned what you use.
