review

Cnet had rated this monitor with 3 star 24″ LCD encased in a black bezel makes a stunning impression, it automatically resizes pictures to 1280×760 to save space.The subtle curves, silky-smooth finish and conveniently positioned controls complete the polished look of the Acer® D240H photo-frame monitor.The D240H includes two USB ports, a Compact Flash reader, and a SD card reader; none of which the H243H has. Both monitors include not only DVI, VGA, and HDMI, but also have the required cables for each connection.This LCD is equipped with a card reader, making it easy to transfer files directly from a camera or mobile device. The 1GB internal storage capacity allows you to save photos to the monitor, and you can connect an external storage device directly via the USB port.Superb picture quality with a very high contrast ratio of 80000:1 via Acer Adaptive Contrast Management, which analyzes and adjusts images frame by frame to optimize contrast.The rapid 2ms gray-to-gray response time delivers high-quality, fast-moving visuals without ghosting for a more enjoyable viewing experience.

u6v Bamboo – a touch of environment in laptop

The main feature of this laptop is its design.It has got wooden panels which are really impressive in looking.It also feels good to the touch, and, most importantly, doesn’t compromise the usability of the laptop. When you touch the surface of this laptop then you will fell like you are touching a wooden furniture.Bamboo is also capable of regenerating itself upon harvesting without necessitating replanting, making it possibly the perfect renewable resource.The company is touting its green credentials with this laptop, as bamboo is a plentiful, renewable and recyclable material.The display is LED backlit, is thinner and lighter than the traditional LCD panel and features a 1280 x 800 resolution. An optical drive is included and you will be running on Windows Vista® Business.

| Laptops refurbished - refurbished notebooks,used hardware, Uncategorized | April 6, 2010



List Price: $0.00 USD
New From: $635.05 In Stock

* 6-cell battery

Its surface is smooth matte and is quite good.15.6-inch screen was matte, not glossy, which makes it a bit less brightness and color but makes the screen easy to viewCnet rated it 4.5 which is quite good rating.While laptop mag pins out the displaying misfits as – ” Our review unit came with the matte screen that produced sharp images, but colors were muted, and viewing angles were poor. Even from 45 degrees, colors washed out significantly. ”

But they also state that ” You can comfortably watch a movie on the SL510. Video was smooth, visual noise was minimal, and colors were true”

this lappy comes with VoIP-optimized features.Company had provided full assortment of USB ports spread across the sides and even the rear of the ThinkPad SL510 though according to laptopmag -”two of the USB ports are located in a compartment with very little vertical clearance. If you have a thick USB device, such as a USB broadband modem, it may not fit into either of the ports on the right side.”

It has Faster Bootup and Shut Down – up to 56% faster and 40% faster shutdown process.ThinkPad SL510 ran for 3 hours and 37 minutes on cnet’s test for battery life with six cell battery

Asus G50 VT Review

| Laptops refurbished - refurbished notebooks,used hardware, Uncategorized | April 1, 2010



List Price: $1,899.00 USD


well you can say it as a “affordable” gaming notebook.It comes with bigger screen of 15.6″ inches and there is no delay in response,graphic effects are sharper with no ghosting and shadows.
for performance check digitaltrends team had tried it on with BioShock,this method uses DirectX 10 to create detailed bump-mapping on surface and atmospheric effects like shimmering water.But this notebook proved to be worthy.Double Sata disk Drive for more space (up to 640GB) which helps you to do more.LifeFrame, SmartLogon and Virtual Camera are also offered with this pack.Contrast and black levels were lacking, with black showing up as a washed out grey.Full-size keyboard was comfortable to type on and also gave you a full numpad off to the side.It is easy to type on and a separate number pad.

General Specs

* Intel Core 2 Duo Processor P8400 (2.26GHz, 1066MHz FSB, 3MB L2 cache)
* NVIDIA GeForce 9800M GS with 512MB of GDDR3 discrete video memory
* 15.6” WXGA Glossy LCD (1366×768)
* Genuine Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit) SP1
* 4GB (4096MB) DDR2 Memory (2 x 2048MB modules)
* 320GB 7200RPM Seagate HD
* 8x Multi-Format Dual Layer DVDRW with LightScribeTechnology
* Integrated 1.3 Megapixel Web Cam
* 6-Cell 11.1v 4800mAh battery, 120w power supply
* Size: 15.4″ x 10.5 x 1.4-1.7″
* Weight: 7lbs 1oz
* Warranty: 1 Year

What we conclude

Bad :
Battery life (45 min to 1 hr)
Bulky
Sound Quality

Good
Performance
Price is quite good
Stellar connectivity
