Transform into a super-netbook
By
Use the netbook home bring huge advantages: weight and small footprint allow the bone to take it with him in every room, without losing connectivity with Wi-Fi at home.
The other side of the coin is made from the user interface: the size, screen resolution, keyboard and trackpad are uncomfortable to use for a long time.
The latest netbooks using screens from 10 inches with a resolution of 1024 x 600 while older models or even smaller portable mount display (8.9 inches or even 7) with a maximum resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels.
Then connect an external monitor to netbooks. This step is important as we move towards the displays with VGA interface, as the netbook does not yet provide the HDMI output. If you do not want to undermine the graphic portion of the Netbook, in and of itself is not particularly powerful, it is preferable to choose screens with diagonal not exceeding 19 inches and resolutions between 1280 x 1024 and 1440 x 900 pixels.
Even better, would choose an LCD monitor with integrated speakers so as not to add additional clutter on the desk. If you think that the external speakers are a prerequisite for your domestic installation, a solution might be to buy microcar stereo + subwoofer small.
Another Achilles heel of the netbook is the keyboard and trackpad inconvenience. There are kits on the market of wireless keyboards and mouse can be connected to any computer via the USB interface. The fundamental principle for which you choose a desktop set is the ‘ergonomics.
You can think also buy a keyboard with extra keys (activate special functions of the operating system) and external USB ports (saving space and power of a hub).If you have a main computer and do not want to buy a second monitor, keyboard and mouse, there are special switches called KVM (Keyboard Video Mouse) can connect the same device to multiple computers and switch between them by speaking with a button . If the netbook serves as a “main computer” home, still need to buy an external drive and a CD burner.
For the external hard drive you can ‘think of a USB disk, 2.5 inch, easy to carry outside the home, or a disk 3.5 “and perhaps more capacious type NAS.
As for the external recorder USB versions are tabletop or transport (powered USB) versions from transport have the advantage of being used while on the move, but provide performance and speed much lower than the models table.
If the netbook finally have a card type network 802.11 b / g, you get more performance out of your home wireless network by buying a stick of RIPO “n” so long that even the modem router is the same type.
The netbook travelers
Who uses the netbook to move or to travel, ergonomics and connectivity needs. The key element in order to connect mobile is to have a HSDPA modem that can connect to the Internet from any place covered by the cellular network.
To use an HSDPA modem must first enter into a contract with the operator. Often at a monthly fee plus extra costs if you exceed the amount of data received or the time of connection.
It ‘also needed a power supply network and / or cigarette lighter socket for not ever running short of electricity.
Could also be a key to communicate with Bluetooth mobile phone headsets.
Everything listed should be put into a padded bag, lightweight and sturdy.
A common problem of almost all the netbook is autonomy not very high, due to the use of a battery of limited capacity.
The autonomy of a battery is directly proportional to the number of cells. The greater the number of cells, the higher the autonomy.
Purchase a battery with more cells, has a cost and footprint to the detriment of the original netbook.
In addition to the official parts, you can find batteries (produced by third parties) are compatible with popular netbook market.
