While not an exact science, a cable internet connection can reach up to 8.0 Mbps. Doesn’t seem very fast in terms of numbers, does it?

But, compare the above speed to the standard 1.5 Mbps average speed of a standard DSL connection, or the very low maximum speed of just 56 Kbps of dial up connections.

Still, most cable modems are able to deliver around 5.0 Mbps on average, to keep things fair. Read the rest of this entry →

Lenovo IdeaPad S10e is a netbook basically consist of all the essential components of a netbook.

Powered with an Intel Atom processor, built with a 10.1 inches screen, 160GB hard disk space, basic connecting devices like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, Lenovo’s IdeaPad has yet another unique feature – an instant-on Linux OS.

It is called the Lenovo QuickStart because a small component was embedded into the BIOS making it boot faster – almost around 5 seconds.

The Linux OS offers a web browser, a photo gallery, instant messenger, Skype chat and a music player.

However, various reviews have noted that even thou the Lenovo QuickStart provides a very fast boot into the Linux OS, the time used to load the web browser takes almost 40 seconds.

This clearly defeats the purpose of creating a fast boot BIOS. The time spent on loading the Linux OS and a web browser almost equal the time spent to load Windows itself.

Besides this, other applications like the music player, photo viewer and instant messengers function well in term of speed.

Users had also complained about the level of sensitivity of the touchpad. The highly sensitive touchpad could not be adjusted and users can only try to get use to it.

The design of Lenovo IdeaPad S10e is pretty simple, and it comes in black, red and white versions. Users have given good comments about the keyboards and its good quality plastic used as the notebook’s corpus.

However, the not standardized design of how the keys are situated on the keyboard had annoyed most of the users, mainly due to the weird placing of the right shift key and the function key which is more lateral than the control key.

The battery life of this notebook is 2.5 hours. Because of this, the weight of the notebook could be maintain around the range of 1.14 kg.

The term cable Internet access (or simply cable) refers to the delivery of Internet service over a cable television infrastructure.

What this means is that instead of using the standard telephone line to transfer data, a standard cable line is used in its place.

Not only does using a cable Internet connection free up your telephone line for incoming calls, but, it also provides much higher transfer rates compared with what is capable through a standard telephone line.

The reason why a cable connection can accomplish this is due to the type of lines used to deliver the internet content to your home computer.

While standard Dial Up connections use a small telephone line, which constricts the amount of usable bandwidth available at any one given time, a coaxial cable line has enough bandwidth available through just one line to deliver any of your cable television channels and your internet content.
