Dell Inspiron 1525 Review

It’s time to comment out about my laptop after using for around 2 months of time.

Pros:

• Extreme level of customization in product configuration
• Decent slim and low weight in this price range laptops
• Very good price tag, Dell has come down lot in fixing price margin to attract more consumer, a win-win strategy. Sony Vaio has to learn from this.
• Solid performance and features
• Sleek keyboard and enou options for further expansion
• Touch sensitive media control buttons
• Integrated SIM slot for mobile broadband. Hop still lot more guys are not aware of that, You can find this mobile like SIM slot right behind the laptop battery. just remove the battery and insert your GPRS activated SIM into it and follow the procedures given by your network service provider to surf net.

Cons:

• First and foremost, Speaker. I’m very much disappointed with speakers. One needs to think of alternative choice who will be listening to music as you do your work. I’m damn sure, Sony Ericsson mobile speakers will eat this, yep really.
• Heat, I’m absorbing enou heat in my lap.
• Mouse pad, it is getting stuck up but very rarely.
• Then off course, Graphics card; a small piece is missing out here. Despite you do not feel lagging graphics in normal mode, definitely you would while going for Vista Aero theme or while playing games

But over all I am very much happy with this laptop and its rocking performance. A great value for money.

Next revolution of Web browser

In a recent days I could see huge transitions from Microsoft’s Internet Explorer(IE) to Mozilla’s Firefox web browser as they are keep coming up with innovative features. Despite IE had rival at every period of time from a way back 1990s, this time the level of domination and garbing attention has become drastic.

Firefox has been steadily eroding Internet Explorer’s claim of superiority by its distinct ways listed below,

• Open source and Free to use
• More transparent and secure
• Huge number of cool add-ons(extensions)
• Lot of innovative features
• Highly customizable and extendable
• Much faster

and I would also tell that IE itself has burnt its finger by,

• Releasing IE 7 with Microsoft’s Genuine Advantage Validation(later they made it optional)
• Not enough proactive on adding features
• No major changes in its newer version while comparing with its competitors

Both are getting ready with their new releases, will wait and see that who is going to win this battle. Anyway at the end of the day, they are keep taking up our online experience to new heights.

Even you can try firefox once, still if you are not. Lots of cool add-ons!

Sony Erricssion mobile secret codes to access internal system:

1. Sony Ericsson Secret Menu: -> * <- <- * means press joystick, arrow keys to the right and <- means left.) We can see phone model, software info, IMEI, configuration info, sim lock status, REAL time clock, total call time and text labels. You can also test your phones services and hardware from this menu (main display, camera, LED/illumination, Flash LED, keyboard, earphone, speaker, microphone, radio and vibrator tests)

2. IMEI Number: *#06# -For checking the International Mobile Equipment Identity.

3. Lockstatus: <- * * <- -SIM lock – Do not lock your phone if you don’t know the unlock code. This is another good check before you buy any phone, especially second hand ones. If phone is SIM locked, you may not be able to switch to other GSM operators.

4. Shortcut to last dialed numbers: 0#

5. Shortcut to sim numbers: On main menu type a number and press #

6. If you change the language from default to any other language, then it may be difficult to switch to default language. The shortcut is very simple. Just press . stands for right arrow button or joystick.

Note: Try these codes at your own risk! I don’t accept any complaints. Some of these codes may not work.
