Windows 10 is fine, once you kill that bh Cortana.. Get it with Win 10 Pro, 
not Home. You have better options at dumping Cortana, the biggest slowdown in 
the system. You can search the net for Windows 10 slow, but I have all the 
notes here. I printed them out because if C gets back in the system, you cannot 
find anything. 
If you need notes on that, I have copious ones that I found on the net when my 
ASUS P550LA i7 with 8 Gb of RAM took over two minutes to bring up the Task 
Manager.

mercifully removing it. The millennials might have liked it…but then, they 
believe the Government should pay for everything including a house, a car, a

RE: Re[2]: [RBASE-L] - OT - new laptop - last question

2016-09-22 Thread Javier Valencia
SSD is a solid state drive, no platter, no moving parts and very fast. You 
simple remove the standard drive, plug in the new drive and the software will 
clone the old drive into the new one, you can always use the old drive in an 
enclosure with a USB port for backups.. I replaced my 700 GB standard drive 
with the 500 GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD and my laptop flies. Startup used to take a 
couple of minutes and not it takes 15 seconds, the nightly anti-virus deep scan 
(very hard drive intensive) used to take ~220 minutes and now it takes  ~30 
minutes. The hard drive portion of the Windows Experience index now maxes out 
at 7.9; I imagine it would be great for databases although I have not done any 
tests. Wherever you buy it can probably install it for you for a nominal cost 
or you can negotiate with them to install an SSD drive and upgrade Windows at a 
discount. More and more laptops now come with SSDs, touch screens and Win10 Pro 
standard; best if you can find one already configured.

Thanks for the response, Javier.  You know how much your opinion means to me, 
old friend!   Both Best Buy and OfficeMax have stopped carrying Toshiba 
laptops...  wonder if that means anything.   If I switched, I thought Dell is 
how I would go.  
 
SSD is a software upgrade to a hard drive?  How is that not a totally different 
piece of hardware?

A little late but here I go…
I used Toshiba computers exclusively for a long time but I quit while back as 
the quality went down and the price went up. I just finished fixing a Toshiba 
laptop screen with broken mounts for a friend. The quality is now terrible and 
whoever designed that particular laptop did a lousy job and there are tons of 
web sites with complaints. IMHO, Toshiba is now overrated and overpriced when 
compared to other brands such as Dell, Lenovo and Acer..
I use now Dells and I have really good luck with them…just be sure to take the 
3 year plan otherwise be ready to pay for support after one year.
You can update any laptop to SSD with no problems as the SSD software that 
comes with the drive clones the old drive. I upgraded my Core I-7 based laptop 
to a SSD drive and it works so much faster now and will extend the life of my 
laptop by at least a couple of years.
As I understand all versions of Windows (Home, Pro) are installed in all 
computers but only one version is activated, so, upgrading from one version to 
the other is very quick and painless. Having said that, might as well start 
with the PRO version and you will not need to worry about it in the future and 
it will save you money.
I am slowly moving to WIN 10 and I regret not upgrading most of my computers 
when it was free; I will not use any of the WIN 8 versions as they appears to 
be buggy.

Windows 10 is fine, once you kill that bh Cortana.. Get it with Win 10 Pro, 
not Home. You have better options at dumping Cortana, the biggest slowdown in 
the system. You can search the net for Windows 10 slow, but I have all the 
notes here. I printed them out because if C gets back in the system, you cannot 
find anything. 

If you need notes on that, I have copious ones that I found on the net when my 
ASUS P550LA i7 with 8 Gb of RAM took over two minutes to bring up the Task 
Manager.

I would suggest upgrading to Pro. You can do more with pro. I would also 
suggest upgrading and applying all patches before loading any programs.  Just 
makes life a little easier.

I used Toshiba computers exclusively for a long time but I quit while back as 
the quality went down and the price went up. I just finished fixing a Toshiba 
laptop screen with broken mounts for a friend. The quality is now terrible and 
whoever designed that particular laptop did a lousy job and there are tons of 
web sites with complaints. IMHO, Toshiba is now overrated and overpriced when 
compared to other brands such as Dell, Lenovo and Acer..

I use now Dells and I have really good luck with them…just be sure to take the 
3 year plan otherwise be ready to pay for support after one year.

You can update any laptop to SSD with no problems as the SSD software that 
comes with the drive clones the old drive. I upgraded my Core I-7 based laptop 
to a SSD drive and it works so much faster now and will extend the life of my 
laptop by at least a couple of years.

As I understand all versions of Windows (Home, Pro) are installed in all 
computers but only one version is activated, so, upgrading from one version to 
the other is very quick and painless. Having said that, might as well start 
with the PRO version and you will not need to worry about it in the future and 
it will save you money.

I am slowly moving to WIN 10 and I regret not upgrading most of my computers 
when it was free; I will not use any of the WIN 8 versions as they appears to 
be buggy.

So my question is, knowing that RBase is my primary concern, am I okay buying 
windows 10?  And comment on brands?

Re[4]: [RBASE-L] - OT - new laptop

2016-09-22 Thread Bruce Chitiea

Warranty stories fall into four categories:

1. Never had one, never needed one;

2. Had one, didn't need it;

3. Had one, sure glad I did;

3. Didn't have one, sure wish I did.

Applies to trucks and RVs, too.

Re: [RBASE-L] - OT - new laptop

As for open boxes or new ones I always get a 3 year warranty. It is well worth 
it.

Admin: feel free to delete if this is not appropriate.

My laptop (my only computer) just died, rats.  It was a 2012 Toshiba Satellite 
with windows 8.  Boy I am scared to get windows 10.  I always bought at Best 
Buy, but they no longer carry Toshiba, and until now Toshibas have been so 
reliable for me.  They do carry Dell, Lenova, Acer.

So my question is, knowing that RBase is my primary concern, am I okay buying 
windows 10?  And comment on brands?

I am using Windows 10 with rbase. No problems.

As for specs I prefer Dell with a SSD drive. SSD makes your PC fly!
