lordZOUGA: 27". Alright.
Too big, maybe?
ProgrammingRe: Best Laptops & Desktop Computers For Programmers?? by Seun(mod):
I'm now considering the Dell XPS One 27 Inch All-In-One Desktop.

Advantages:
1) It's a desktop PC. Desktop computers are more comfortable to code on for long periods of time.
2) It so big. This gives it a certain "presence" that even 18 inch gaming laptops cannot hope to match.
3) The screen has a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, which is higher than what you can get on any laptop.
4) The screen is big enough at 27-inches to make the high resolution usable. No DPI scaling is required.

Disadvantages:
1) It's really heavy. You can't easily move it to a colleague's desk to do some pair programming.
2) Unlike laptops, it comes with no built-in UPS, so we may not be able to use it with PHCN.

It still says: Screen Size: 15.6"".. You should copy the specs of the DV7 instead.

InvestmentRe: Investment Ideas For A Pensioner by Seun(mod):
Advice for your uncle: First, put everything in tbills. 1/4 in 91 day tbills, 1/4 in 182 day tbills, and 1/2 in 364 day tbills. Once you invest in tbills, the feeling that you have to invest your money quickly - which can lead to bad investments - will pass away. Then you can start investing in things you really understand very well - real estate, stocks related to your area of expertise, business ventures selling products and services that are in great demand in your area, etc. Any investment you make should be based on your own personal knowledge and full conviction and not someone's advice. Avoid HYIP's, FOREX, or other funky investment ideas that are likely to fail. If you have no good ideas, just stick with tbills.

uche16: The boyfriend is my type of guy,I remember doing the same to my ex after I caught her with a guy,I just pretended nothing happened and affirmed my undying love for her,fast forward 3 months later,I ended the relationship without any reason but she knew I never forgave,she texted,called and begged.she calls this days but I don't pick up,.............moral of the story,you don't want to hurt a sadist cos I enjoyed her pain the way I am enjoying the Op's pain
You spent 3 months in a relationship you had no further interest in. You could have dated better girls during that period, but you were more interested in making someone unhappy than in making yourself happy. That's awful! I feel bad for you.

moonraker: Maybe you can contact one of the foreign importers on this site. You could get a much better deal with good specs at the right price by importing.
I will. Thanks for the suggestion.

@lordZOUGA: I agree with you; 17 inch laptops are not as portable as a regular laptops. They are basically desktop replacement machines.

Even so, they share certain advantages with regular laptops:
- You can use them safely without noisy UPS systems or active power stabilizers.
- You can move them around from desk to desk quite easily if you need to.
- They use up very little space.
- Every laptop requires only one power cable. Most desktop systems require at least two power cables, a keyboard cable, mouse cable, etc.

However, studies seem to show that people are more productive when using big high resolution monitors, so we have chosen 17 inch laptops because they are the biggest size available. Also, due to my personal experience, I feel that the 1080p resolution on a 15-inch windows laptop makes screen elements just a little bit too small. I expect a 1080p display to be just perfect on a 17-inch laptop. We'll see!

I come from a Christian family. All the members of my family are Christians - except for my stubborn self, who left faith after it failed him.
ProgrammingRe: Best Laptops & Desktop Computers For Programmers?? by Seun(mod): 7:53pm On Jun 16, 2013
I checked out the 15" Lenovo Ideapad Y500 (too small!) and 17" Samsung Series 7 Gamer (too expensive!)

Currently thinking of choosing the Sony VAIO E Series SVE1713CCXB, a 17.3-Inch Laptop with a 1080p glossy screen, no external graphics (which web programmers don't need anyway), and a white-backlit full keyboard. It costs just $739.99 on Amazon.com. Upgrading to 16gb of RAM and a 250GB SSD raises the total cost to $1035, which seems rather reasonable.

What you want are the trailers and previews for the first season.
Anything beyond that is a spoiler which will ruin your enjoyment of the show.
