2 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks7 years agoE-book reader buying advice, E-ink reader preferably?
Hello,
I was need of a device for reading on the go and was thinking of getting a budget tablet then i came across e-ink readers(All-New Kindle Paperwhite). I also read that its more convenient for the eye reading on e-ink compared to LCD tablets plus they seem cheaper than even budget tablets.
I had few questions regarding the Kindle:-
1)Can it handle books with 800-900 pages?
2)Can it display tables and correctly display content inside the boxes? also what happens to boxes and arrows like flow chart?
3)Can i pinch zoom, use it in landscape, adjust text size?
4)Can i read magazines which are 60-70 MegaByte sizes and have pictures?
5)We are able to transfer pdf via usb right?
My main use is to read pdf files, i get most of my study materials in pdf, it does have tables & diagrams with arrows and boxes.
I also sometimes get magazines which i was hoping to read on it.
Will the E-ink reader do the above? if No which of the above?
Also is the kindle due for some major hardware upgrade? as in better screen or larger storage,etc.
If yes then when would it be a good idea to get one?
Thank you in advance for your time and help.
1 AnswerBooks & Authors8 years agoWhat do I need to learn to make a website?
Hello!
I am a management student and i want to learn how to make a website, but the problem is i have no clue on where to start? I do know the basics on using computer as i'm asking here but nothing more.
I was hoping some guidelines on where to start, what to learn. I do have a small saving and don't mind taking up paid classes from professionals.
I am actually thinking of taking up classes but where i live there are many small institutes which might not be of good quality, so i was hoping to know what to ask from the institute.
Thank you in advance for you time and help.
P.S.- I saw that someone had asked a similar question but the person who asked seemed to have more knowledge on computers than me and also the answer was too advanced for my understanding.
4 AnswersProgramming & Design8 years agoAlternative GPU to AMD HD 6450/6570?
I had earlier asked for a GPU to run a 1080p monitor and 720p TV, my requirements were:-
1.Use both displays simultaneously
2. HDMI out for TV 720p and DVI for monitor 1080p.(Movies{1080p & 720p}, web browsing, music, mail, MS Office)
I was suggested HD 6450/6570, but couldn't find a single place which sold either or any other AMD card.
Was only able to find: -
1.MSI GT210 1GB DDR3 ($52)
2.MSI GT 440 1GB DDR3($80)
3.MSI GT640 to GTX Titan(which was completely out of my budget's reach)
The specs of my system:- i3 2130, H61M-P20-G3, 4GB DDR3 RAM, DVDRW, 350W PSU
Which of the above two would meet my needs?
1 AnswerDesktops8 years agoperformance of HD 6450 for movies?
My Current Setup: -
CPU - i3 2130
RAM - 4GB
Motherboard - MSI H61M-P20 (G3) (Doesn't have HDMI, only DVI and VGA)
Monitor - Compaq Presario Q2210s (1920 by 1080) (Connected by DVI)
TV - Sharp LED TV 32-Inch 32LE340M (1366 by 768) ( Connected by VGA)
I was earlier looking for a cheap graphics card and someone had suggested me a ASUS HD 6450, since i only watch movies, surf web, torrents, mail, youtube but "NO" gaming whatsoever.
My problem is, the colours on the TV via VGA are really bad comparison to that on the monitor(the colours look really unrealistic whitish...pale), would using the graphics card's HDMI solve my problems? Isn't the TV's panel supposed to have better colour reproduction, nicer quality....especially considering when i paid 6 times of what i paid for the monitor.
2 AnswersDesktops8 years agoSuper Cheap Graphics card for Dual Display?
My desktop computer and TV are on side by side table, I use my PC to watch movies on TV via VGA and DVI cable to connect to my monitor to work on it. A friend of mine told me that if i were to connect the TV via HDMI the video quality would be much better and also no hassle of extra cable for audio.
My mother board is this- http://www.msi.com/product/mb/H61M-P20--G3-.html
My TV supports max resolution of 1366by768
I do no gaming whatsoever, but the graphics card should be able to play 1080p MKV movies and it'd be great if it'd play BLU-RAY(future proofing)
thank you for the reply.
