Is faster RAM really worth the extra cash ?

When you build computers and purchase the peripherals by yourself you have to make several decisions. Will it be an Intel or AMD cpu for example, which hard drive will you choose from the hundreds available, which video card and which RAM. The newest hardware is normally the fastest but most expensive one and it is always a question if the extra cash that you had to pay for the speed gain is worth the investment.

RAM, Random Access Memory, puzzles a lot of buyers. There is DDR, DDR2 and DDR3 RAM, different clock speeds and those cryptic CL-5-5-12 (random numbers) information. The question if a buyer should go with DDR2-800 or DDR2-1066, DDR3-800 or DDR3-1066 with different CL settings is hard to answer. And that’s why Tom’s Hardware decided to test the available RAM and see how faster RAM affected the performance of a computer.

The results are somewhat disappointing for the faster is better crowd. The fastest RAM tested, the DDR2-1066 4-4-4-12 increased the performance of the system by roughly 10% over the slowest DDR2-667 5-5-5-12 RAM. And that was only in one game, all other tested games saw an increase of only 4%. I think it’s interesting to note that faster RAM is obviously not worth the extra cash.

Microsoft acquires Skype for $8.5 billion

Microsoft Corp and Skype Global S.à r.l today announced that they have entered into an agreement under which Microsoft will acquire Skype, the leading Internet communications company, for $8.5 billion in cash from the investor group led by Silver Lake. The agreement has been approved by the boards of directors of both Microsoft and Skype.

With 170 million connected users and over 207 billion minutes of voice and video conversations in 2010, Skype has been a pioneer in creating rich, meaningful connections among friends, families and business colleagues globally.

Microsoft has a long-standing focus and investment in real-time communications across its various platforms, including Lync (which saw 30 percent revenue growth in Q3), Outlook, Messenger, Hotmail and Xbox LIVE.

Skype will support Microsoft devices like Xbox and Kinect, Windows Phone and a wide array of Windows devices, and Microsoft will connect Skype users with Lync, Outlook, Xbox Live and other communities. Microsoft will continue to invest in and support Skype clients on non-Microsoft platforms.

Skype will become a new business division within Microsoft, and Skype CEO Tony Bates will assume the title of president of the Microsoft Skype Division, reporting directly to Ballmer.

Facebook Reaches 600 Million Users

Facebook, which only a couple of days ago was valued at $50bn (which seems obscene really) has now reached 600 million users worldwide. In fact this website is now so popular that some people are saying ridiculous things about it. Technology Blogger Paul Thurrott recently said on his podcast “I’m tired of Luddites and hold-outs. You need to be on Facebook, now. If you’re not, you do not exist.”

This is a frankly ridiculous statement, that because a lot of people find Facebook interesting that everyone else must jump on board the bandwagon or shut up complaining about the site. Windows LIve for instance now has in excess of 500 million users, but nobody would dream of saying, you must jump ship from GMail.

Let’s put things into perspective. I’m on Facebook as are all my friends, but the only reason we’re all there, and there’s broad agreement with us on this, is because there’s currently nowhere else like it for us to be. Facebook will eventually have it’s day in the same way that Friends Reunited did, it’s just going to take much longer for them as they have a far better business model, and Friends Reunited didn’t predict (who could) the social networking explosion, and they weren’t ready for it.

600 million users is a massive number, indeed it’s 10% of the total population of the planet. But if we currently have around 4 billion people with access to the Internet somehow, that leaves an enormous number off Facebook. For these people its personal choice (China aside obviously).

Facebook launched in February 2004 and has seen enormous success while at the same time being slammed repeatedly over privacy. It’s the golden child of the Internet though and like your own small children in that you can shout at it daily but you’d shoot anyone who tried to take it away from you!

It’s predicted that Facebook will reach 1 billion users by 2012 which is also great for the company. I genuinely believe though that if people decide that Facebook is not for them they should be left to get on with it and not spoken about in derogatory terms.

European Mobile Charger Agreement Comes into Force Today

A voluntary agreement by all the major mobile phone manufacturers comes into force today in the EU, and because of the way phones are manufactured these days it’s bound to very quickly have positive repercussions around the world.

Under the agreement, all new phones announced from today for sale in the EU will have a standard micro-USB socket for charging the device.

The companies who have signed up to the measure, which is intended to reduce the number of chargers sold and discarded in Europe include Apple, Nokia, Qualcomm, HTC, RIM, LG, Motorola and Samsung.

It will be interesting to see how this impacts on Apple’s next iPhone as these phones have always carried proprietary hardware interfaces. Will the next iPhone switch entirely to micro-USB, will it have a micro-USB socket alongside the standard iPhone connector and will any change only affect handsets sold in the EU?

The move was initialised a year ago by the EU to try to reduce the overall carbon footprint and the amount of waste produced by the electronics industry and very quickly all the major manufacturers signed up. It means that within a year or two mobile phone companies will begin to sell phones without chargers, instead expecting consumers to either buy one separately or use the existing charger that came with their previous handset.

Some manufacturers including HTC have already been using micro-USB sockets for charging their handsets for a couple of years, indeed I’m now on my second HTC phone with such a socket and charger.

How this is taken by consumers who may resent having to buy a separate charger, or who may went to sell or give away their old phone and charger remains to be seen. The move is being broadly welcomed by governments across Europe however.

4 simple ways to extend your notebook’s life

Most notebook users only think about what their notebooks can do for them, not about what they can do for their notebooks. But if you treat it as you would your pet dog – don’t “overfeed” it but don’t let it go hungry between feedings, don’t leave it in a hot car, keep it clean, and be gentle with it – it will love you back for years to come.

1. Take care of your battery
Your notebook battery capacity will decrease with time, wear and tear, but there are things you can do to maximise its lifespan. For example, it is best to recharge batteries when they get to 10–20 percent charge, as regularly letting the battery fully discharge to 0 percent is not good for it. While short discharges and recharges won’t actually damage a battery, they can decrease the accuracy of the battery gauge; this can be remedied by doing a deliberate full discharge every 30 charges. When you’re not using the battery for a prolonged time, you can preserve its life by removing it at 40 percent charge and storing it in a cool, dry place. The worst thing you can do is leave a fully charged battery at high heat – which leads us to our next point …

2. Avoid excessive heat
Notebooks generate a lot of heat. When they get too hot, they shut themselves down or cause damage to your notebook battery, hardware or electronic components. Because notebook operations are responsible for creating internal heat, you can avoid problems by changing settings and reducing processor speeds and screen brightness. You can also install freeware utilities that monitor the temperature of your notebook and automatically speed up the fan or decrease power usage. Turn off your computer before putting it in a notebook case or any confined space where heat can build up. And remember to avoid high-heat environments, like a hot car. Another way to ensure your notebook doesn’t overheat is to ...

3. Let air vents breathe
Overheating can quickly result if your notebook’s air vents are blocked. So don’t put it on a soft surface like a bed, where the blankets and pillows can squash up against the air vents, preventing air from circulating. Even on hard surfaces, some notebooks can have a hard time “breathing”. If this is the case with your notebook and you see that it is getting too hot, you can elevate the back of the computer by propping it up using household objects or getting a laptop stand that allows air to flow freely. Notebook coolers or “chill pads” work similarly but include external fans. Another way that air vents and ports can get blocked is with dust. Use a can of compressed air to clear them. Speaking of cleaning …

4. Be careful with LCD screens, the most expensive part of the notebook
When cleaning your screen, be very careful. Minerals in tap water can leave spots, so only use distilled water, and don’t use any solvents or alcohol, like household glass cleaner, or paper towels, which contain wood fibre and cause scratches. Best of all is to use a lint-free dry microfibre cloth to gently remove dust from your screen. In general, avoid touching the screen, as it can leave fingerprints and cause permanent marks if too much pressure is applied. Fractures in the LCD display, though you might not be able to see them, create lines, patterns, spots or bleeding around the edges of the screen, which may only get worse.

Pay some attention to your notebook, you can help ensure it has a long and happy life.

Palm shareholders approve HP takeover plans

Palm stockholders at a special meeting on Friday approved plans for the company's acquisition by HP, according to an SEC filing.

The transaction is expected to close on 1 July, according to the filing.

The companies announced in April that computer giant HP would buy the struggling smartphone maker for $1.2bn (£788m). The deal then had already been approved by both companies' boards of directors.

HP has long touted Palm's appealing IP portfolio and says it has plans to put Palm's WebOS on tablets, smartphones, web-connected PCs.
