Hardware - July 2007

I'm going away to college to NYU, (I live at Long Island) and I'm buying a laptop for college. So which one is perfect for me a 12.1 or a 13.3 inch laptop? I intend on commuting back home at least once a month, so I don't know which one to get. What are the pros and cons of each?

My better half wants me to purchase her an Apple MacBook laptop. I may need to use that laptop for business for a few months if we buy it (for seldom trips out of town). My question is whether I can access my company's remote web access, incl. outlook and desktop access, on the MacBook (on Windows Small Business Server 2003). All help appreciated. Thanks.

Is it better if I leave my laptop pluged in all the time (when on), or unplug it and work off the battery.
Thanks!

I'm looking into getting a Macbook (not pro) and I'm curious as to what games could be run with that card. Unreal Tournament (04-ish) mainly.
Thanks in advance

Is this card any good/decent? Its the only card I could find that works with my 300W power supply, and no way am i upgrading that too. My current card is ATI Radeon Express 200 so i guess anything beats it. Also i found this one:

Can you please tell me what are the latest desktop microprocessors released by (1)Intel, (2)AMD, (3)Motorola? And include prices and specs (or even just the name can work, I'll look for the prices myself). Can you also tell me what those three companies are planning to release next (desktop microprocessors). Thanks so much!

My Dad recently wanted to format his PC and reinstall the OS (xp pro) and backed up all his media to a DVD, unfortunately the DVD became corrupted or damaged and hence he's now lost all the media which contained precious family photos and videos, all his tax information etc etc

Now he told me he did this last night, and I’ve told him not to install anything else.

Can anyone advise me the best way to attempt to recover any of these files as I don’t have the first clue what to do or program to use. (I'm willing to pay to recover this so any file recovery software license fees ill pay)

All comments much appreciated.

I sat down at our computer, and moved the mouse to wake it up. When the display came on it came on white and then faded in to simply just lines of color, no display whatsoever. I've restarted computer after letting it sit overnight and still same problem. is this just the monitor or something with the computer? Yikes... Help!

I recently purchased this board and had decided to try to use two NVIDIA g-cards in SLI but it seems as though the package doesnt contain a bridge or connector. I looked at the manual and there is no mention of a bridge being included. I was under the impression that all SLI motherboards came with a bridge. Am i wrong? if so what is the best solution for me? Does this board run sli nividia cards?
