linux or windows

Image
Windows vs Linux:   Linux was developed to manage servers and was designed for use by technical experts.  Windows was also developed as a GUI operating system by Microsoft to replace its older command line managed operating system MSDOS. For Windows: Windows is probably the most commonly available operating system. There is usually at least some technical support available for Windows and there are a lot of publications and websites available on how to use Windows. Windows usually comes pre-installed on brand-name computers although the versions of Windows on locally produced computers in developing countries are often pirated versions.

What is an IP Address?

Image
" IP " stands for Internet Protocol, so an IP address is an Internet Protocol address. What does that mean? An Internet Protocol is a set of rules that govern Internet activity and facilitate completion of a variety of actions on the World Wide Web. Therefore an Internet Protocol address is part of the systematically laid out interconnected grid that governs online communication by identifying both initiating devices and various Internet destinations, thereby making two-way communication possible.   An IP address consists of four numbers, each of which contains one to three digits, with a single dot (.) separating each number or set of digits. Each of the four numbers can range from 0 to 255. Here's an example of what an IP address might look like: 78.125.0.209. This innocuous-looking group of four numbers is the key that empowers you and me to send and retrieve data over our Internet connections, ensuring that our messages, as well as our requests for data and the da...

Image

When it was an independent company, its headquarters was in  Mountain View, California . Netscape's web browser was once dominant in terms of  usage share , but lost most of that share to  Internet Explorer  during the so-called  first browser war . The usage share of Netscape had fallen from over 90 percent in the mid-1990s to less than one percent by the end of 2006.                                                    ( A screenshot of Netscape 1.2 on Windows 3.1) Microsoft released version 1.0 of  Internet Explorer  as a part of the  Windows 95   Plus Pack...

ubuntu vs windows 8 (apps)

Image
 Apps Whereas Windows 8 Pro  comes bundled  with Microsoft's Internet Explorer 10 browser, Ubuntu comes with a wide assortment of open-source software packages such as Firefox, Thunderbird,  LibreOffice , and more, offering both individual and business users a pretty full suite of functionality. Beyond those bundled programs, both Ubuntu and Windows 8 offer app stores to help users find the additional software they need. Dating back to 2009, the Ubuntu Software Center now houses more than 40,000 apps, ranging from games to productivity tools to educational resources. In addition, by usingWine or CodeWeaver's CrossOver, you can run Windows programs on top of Linux. The Windows Store just launched with Windows 8, and at the time of its debut it included just over 9000 apps. Microsoft execs have said that they hope to provide 100,000 apps in the Windows Store within 90 days of the Windows launch. Operating system binaries and drivers, however, ...

things you should knew about rooting (android)

Image
What is Rooting? “Rooting” your device means obtaining “superuser” rights and permissions to your Android’ssoftware. With these  elevated  user  privileges , you gain the ability to load custom software (ROM’s), install custom themes, increase performance, increase battery life, and the ability to install softwarethat would otherwise cost extra money (ex: WiFi tethering). Rooting is essentially “hacking” your Android device. In the iPhone world, this would be the equivalent to “Jailbreaking” your phone. Why is it called Rooting? The term “root” comes from the Unix/Linux world and is used to describe a user who has “superuser” rights or permissions to all the files and programs in the software OS (Operating System).  What are the Advantages of Rooting? Custom Software (ROM’s) You may have heard of people loading custom “ROM’s” on their devices. A “ROM” is the  software that runs your device. It is stored in...

installing linux (ubantu) on your computer

Image
There are a few different methods for installing Linux on your computer, but generally, the most popular way is by downloading and burning a live CD . The Live CD Method You'll have to get your live CD from the net, so head to your distribution's home page (like  Ubuntu's )and look for a downloads section. Most will make it pretty easy to find. In addition, many sites will even host BitTorrent downloads of their distribution too, which will be a little faster—so if you see a link for "alternative downloads", check that out. Otherwise you can probably download it directly from the site. You'll probably have a few different choices when you download. For example, some distributions have netbook-optimized versions, while others (like Ubuntu) will offer different versions based on the  desktop environment  they come with. And, most will have 32- and 64-bit versions available as well . Once your .ISO file is done downloading, open up your favorit...

How to Burn ISOs in Windows 7

if you want to burn ISO to a disk then the process  is as simple as: 1-Double-click the ISO file (or right-click and select Burn disc image. 2-click burn Not too difficult now, was it?

In the meantime, you can still mount disk images for free with one of the  many   disk   mounting   tools    like:   daemon tools  to mount the images good luck.

Installing Software on Linux

One of the most difficult things to get used to in the Linux world is installing new software packages. In the world of Windows, every program comes with a  Setup.exe  program that asks you some very easy questions and takes care of the job for you. While Linux software can be almost that easy to install, you will sometimes find software that seems to fight every step of the way. I can’t cover all the problems you might run into, but I’ll try to give you the basics and a few pointers to help get you over the rough spots. Software tends to come in “packages”. In the Windows world a package is a  Setup.exe  or a program.zip  file. On a Mac a package is a  program.dmg  or a  program.sit  file. In the Linux world, there are several kinds of packages, and each distribution has its own preferred package format. The standard Linux package format (according to the  Linux Standard Base ) is  RPM . RPM is a packaging system originally...

World's Fastest Supercomputer

Image
The fastest and most powerful computer in the world is still in China and it still is the Tianhe-2 supercomputer. The Top500 Organization ranks the 500 fastest computers in the world and updates its list twice a year. It has placed the Tianhe-2 in the top spot for the fourth time in a row. In the latest Top500 compilation released by the group on Nov. 17, the Tianhe-2 managed to retain its position as the fastest system in the world. The supercomputer, which is based in China's National University of Defense Technology (NUDT), can perform 33.86 quadrillion floating point operations, or FLOPS, in one second. A floating point operation refers to a math problem involving fractional number that when measured in quadrillions is referred to as petaflop. Apple's Mac Pro, one of the most powerful commercially available computers today, can be configured to top out approximately seven trillion FLOPS but with Tianhe-2, whose name means "Milky Way," performing at...

what is the apple watch

Image
What it does, what it is Much like most other smart watches, the Apple Watch isn't a standalone device -- it's a phone accessory.Android Wear, Samsung Gear, Pebble and others work the same way. But here, you must own an iPhone 5 or later to use the Watch. A few Apple Watch functions work away from the phone, but the watch primarily works alongside the phone as an extension, a second screen and basically another part of your iOS experience. It's a symbiote. Communication, fitness, information, time: these are the core Apple Watch functions, but the Watch is incredibly ambitious, packed with many, many features and apps. In scope, it reminds me of Samsung's ambitious Gear smartwatches, but more fully realized. Apple Watch receives messages from friends, send texts and lets you dictate messages, make speakerphone calls, ping people with animated emoji, give love taps long-distance or send your heartbeat as a sort of long-distance hug. It tracks your steps, ...

ipad 3 quick review

Image
iPad 3 - Introduction Apple's iPad line is the best-selling tablet range of all time and when it came out the iPad 2 set some pretty high expectations for the market, so to say that most people were excited about the potential of the iPad 3 – officially called the “new iPad”, which is ridiculously confusing - is a bit of an understatement. Key Features : 9.7in, 2,048 x 1,536 Retina Display; Apple A5X dual-core CPU; 16-64GB storage; 30-pin dock connector; Bluetooth 4 and Optional 4G Manufacturer: Apple The iPad 3 was Apple's first Retina screen iPad. The quality of the screen is mesmerizing and still stands the test of time by looking great two years after launch. It's also well-designed and robust, with users happy with the way it looks. One of the primary problems with the iPad 3 is its size and weight. Android tablets have been getting better and better and now compete with the iPad. Apple has rectified this with the iPad Air , which will m...
