The best way to search for a Laptop or Desktop Computer

The best way to search for a Laptop or Desktop Computer medium to high priced for a purpose eg Software & Web Development or another item is just to create something for this in a related channel, like a YouTube video, blog article, Presentation, Excel Info/List, an Infographics, or other…

Try to Create something RELEVANT
YouTube video mp4 or/and // eg “best laptops for software development in every budget”
Presentation Pptx or/and
Excel sheet/list xlsx or/and
Blog articles WordPress or/and
?…or another item, just create something in relation to this item, its category, or its usage…

This is also the case in case you read a textbook/book especially in Programming
After finishing reading a chapter or section, practice examples, do exercises in code by typing scripts, and run code in IDE, Emulator, Browser, etc
In addition, you will get embedded in your head, more what you have read by implementing an App with related programming as the chapter you read or write a guide how-to in programming related in your blog, …

I learn this by creating a YouTube video & Blog post & Presentation [these] for my blog, about buying a laptop for specific needs [particularly Software Development] in different budgets, I learned a lot about the laptops market – even the laptop market local or online is huge… like many hidden secret models of laptops – were in the market but un-noticed… to me!!!

PC to VM converter

PC to VM converter

=======================

I recently converted a Windows 7 Home OS [old Dell Laptop] to vmdk Virtual Machine (VM)…

I will describe here the important points of the procedure.

http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2005129 – This video discusses and demonstrates how to convert a physical machine into a virtual machine that will run on VMware Fusion, Workstation or Player.

 

Points to keep in mind

Set in resulting VM Network all 3 types of NAT, Host-Only, Bridge so as the VM has Connection to the internet.

RAM will be Ram of the converter PC… for me was 3.8GB so after finished Prior run VM round it to 4GB and after because the total RAM in my host PC is 32GB I increase it to 8GB exactly.

Follow the instructions in the tutorial & article above… VMWare converter server service must get started prior to starting the converting procedure. In my case, the software prompted me to START THIS SERVICE in Windows 7 Home.

Notes:

  1. I have read my MB manual. Nevertheless I recommend at start read some different MB (same vendor) manuals to get the idea/some experience, and because manuals may show different guidelines eg my MB not indicate Ram chip insert priority – 4 slots one Ram chip – also not show how adapt head sink & CPU Fan in the MB. In contrast some other Asus MB manuals show this info, and also I have registered the motherboard in Asus Site and contacted Asus Support pertinent to all my Questions. My MB manual shows only how adapt processor in its slot in MB.
  2. I prefer Intel Processors as only these support Hackintosh Build Systems or Mac OS in Virtual Machines in hypervisors like Vmware Workstation Player or Oracle VirtualBox
