Intel Core i7 Processor i7-930 2.80GHz 8 MB LGA1366 CPU

2010-05-04T23:27:00.001-07:00

The i7 family is Intel's flagship processor, and for good reason.

With the i7 family, Intel engineers invented a revolutionary new style of microarchitecture.

They replaced the front side bus--a longtime staple of processor design--with a new technology called QuickPath Interconnect (QPI).

Using QPI, the Intel Core i7-930 processor achieves unprecedented levels of bandwidth, and can use its four computing cores to their maximum potential.

To put it simply, users will enjoy faster and more streamlined processing than ever before.

Your computer will handle multiple projects and applications without the slowdown you'd experience with a lesser processor.

Extremely intensive programs like high-definition media editors will run more smoothly and responsively. And you'll be able to experience next-generation games without frame-rate hiccups and slowdowns.

Whether editing high-definition videos, touching up family photos, or splicing up music, the Intel Core i7-960 processor provides the processing power needed.

The processor's four cores are optimized to keep up with the most advanced digital editing software.

It also accelerates DVD encoding and compression, allowing you to easily share your HD home videos with everyone.

With the advent of next-generation games, PC gaming is more immersive than ever.

The latest games take advantage of multi-threaded programming, allowing for more realistic graphics, physics, and artificial intelligence (AI).

But you need more than just a good graphics card with high GPU output to fully experience all these effects.

Underlying the visual realism and advanced AI scripts are thousands of high-speed calculations that your CPU must process.

Fortunately, the Intel Core i7-930 processor is specifically designed to handle these calculations.

Using multi-thread architecture, it has the ability to process thousands of graphical characteristics at once, resulting in a smooth and lag-free experience.

Intel worked closely with CryTek -- the developers of the advanced game engine behind such games as Crysis and Far Cry -- to guarantee that gamers have an immersive and lifelike experience.

The Intel Core i7-930 processor is backed by a three-year limited warranty.

Apple MacBook Pro MC374LL/A 13.3-Inch Laptop

2010-05-03T18:34:00.001-07:00

The new 13-inch MacBook Pro features advanced NVIDIA integrated graphics technology along with a faster Intel Core 2 Duo processor.

That makes for the ultimate combination of performance, portability, and battery life--up to 10 hours--without adding an ounce to the slimmest, lightest MacBook Pro.

With the 1066 MHz frontside bus and 3 MB of shared L2 cache of the Intel Core 2 Duo processor, all your applications will run faster and more efficiently than you thought possible.

The 13-inch MacBook Pro also features the new NVIDIA GeForce 320M integrated graphics processor with 48 processing cores--three times as many as before.

This results in a huge difference when using 3D games and graphics-intensive applications. And when you're not, you'll benefit from a new energy-efficient architecture that uses up to 40 percent less power for everyday tasks like writing email and surfing the web.

Combining advanced NVIDIA integrated graphics technology along with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, the 13-inch Apple MacBook Pro is faster than ever and will keep you working longer away from power cords with an enhanced battery life of up to 10 hours of battery life.

As with previous models, the new MacBook Pro features a precision unibody enclosure crafted from a single block of aluminum, creating a thin and light mobile computing workhorse (less than 1 inch thin and just 4.5 pounds) that's also highly durable. And it includes a 13.3-inch, LED-backlit glass display (instead of an LCD panel) as well as a glass trackpad that doesn't include a button (for larger tracking area) that features Apple's Multi-Touch technology.

The new energy-efficient architecture in the 13-inch MacBook Pro gives you up to 10 hours of battery life on a single charge.

With 4 GB of memory and a 250 GB hard drive now standard, this is the most powerful 13-inch MacBook Pro yet.

It also comes pre-loaded with Apple's Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard operating system--an operating system custom-designed for the advanced technology inside--and it also comes with the iLife '09 suite of applications, including iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, and iTunes.

Computer Software

Computer Software

In general, there are two types of computer software: system software and application software.

System software or operating system is a set of instructions used to control the computer hardware. The most popular computer operating system is Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X and Linux.

Application software is a type of software running on the operating system and used to run a variety of everyday things. There are many different applications software, including:

educational software
business software
modeling software
game software
medical software
database software
word processing software
image processing software

Some software company are Microsoft, Adobe Systems, Corel and Symantec.

The leading non-profit software organizations are Free Software Foundation, GNU Project and the Mozilla Foundation.

Computer Hardware

Computer Hardware

Basically, all computers have the same types of computer hardware: central processing unit, memory, storage, input/output devices, and some type of telecommunication device.

The central processing unit (CPU) is the part of a computer where all computations are performed.

Memory is the part of a computer where instructions and data are held while being worked on.

Most computers use a magnetic device called hard drive for storage.

Input/output (I/O) devices enable communication between a computer and the person using it. Input device include the keyboard, mouse, and scanner. Output device include the monitor, printer, and speaker.

Telecommunication devices enable computer users exchange information with one another. The telecommunication devices include regular telephone modems, cable modems, wireless modems, and DSL (digital subscriber line) telephone modems.

How Computers Work

How Computers Work

In everyday life, we use decimal number system. The decimal number system use ten digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. However, computers use different number system.

The computers represent information using the binary number system. The binary (or base-two) number system use only two digits: 0 and 1. In computer terms, binary digits are called bits.

Who is Grace Murray Hopper

2009-10-26T07:15:00.000-07:00

Who is Grace Murray Hopper?

Grace Murray Hopper was an American computer scientist, born on December 9, 1906.

In 1928, Hopper graduated with a bachelor's degree in mathematics and physics from Vassar College. In 1930, she received a Master's degree in mathematics and physics from Yale University. In 1934, she earned a Ph.D in mathematics from Yale University.

During World War II, Hopper became a junior naval officer. She was assigned to the Bureau of Ship Computation Project at Harvard University. She worked on the Mark I computer, an early "giant calculator" that would change her life and lead to her work on the first electrical computer.

In the early 1950s, Grace Hopper developed the first compiler for a computer programming language. The compiler was known as the A compiler.

What is Computer

2009-10-25T06:14:00.000-07:00

What is Computer?

Once, the word computer meant a person who did computations.

Now, the word computer almost always refers to automated electronic devices.

Today, computer can do much more than calculate. Most people use computers to write reports. Some people use computer to draw, create digital images. Through Internet, computers are used to send messages and to buy stuff online.

Computer size

Computers come in different sizes and various shapes. Some computers are small enough to fit into a wristwatch and a digital camera. These small computers can be powered by a watch battery.
