PC Secret Formula Review - Transform Slow PC Into Speed Monster

Having a slow PC can be a pain in the neck, and it certainly takes the fun out of using your computer. But before you throw your sluggish PC out of the windows and go buy a new one, check out an ebook PC Secret Formula first. It could save you some money.

Also, don't call the computer service man and pay him $50 an hour to do some basic things like cleaning up your PC or defragmenting the hard drive because you can do all these by yourself easily even though you know nothing about computer except for switching it on and using Microsoft Excel. PC Secret Formula will show you how to transform your slow PC into a speed monster in minutes.

So don't worry if you're not a technically-challenged type of person, the author of PC Secret Formula has done a great job in making the report and the video tutorials very easy to understand. Anyone who can read or watch a video can follow the steps in PC Secret Formula. There is no complicated jargon, it's all step-by-step and screenshots are provided where needed.

And all the tweaks, tips and techniques presented in PC Secret Formula will NOT harm, erase or damage any aspect of your PC because you are not going to touch any of the files or registries, so please dont worry. You're going to learn advanced PC performance techniques that most people (even the professionals) haven't seen before. After reading the report/ebook and apply some of the tips, you will not only notice immediate improvements in your computer performance but I'm sure you would like to show off your new found skills to impress your friends :-)

Everyone knows that a slow PC is a pain to use. But you can't avoid your PC performance to degrade over time, this is due to the amount of programs we install and uninstall over a period of time. Sometimes we forget how much junks we have installed on our PC. I remember buying products and services that cost me over $200 but they fall short on delivering their promises in improving my PC performance :-(

Here is the sneak peek inside the PC Secret Formula report:

Part 1: The First 5 steps to a Blazing PC.

You'll learn five secret steps used by the author to transform your PC into a speed monster. These are the exact techniques used by the author for his clients and his own computer.

These are high-quality software and they are free (the owner only asks for voluntary donation, so if you love the tools you can donate some money to the owner). I have installed and used the tools, they are safe and very effective. And you know what? There are many websites that are selling similar products for $40. I know this because I bought those products before. Again, simply amazing! PC Secret Formula is perhaps the best deal on the Net that I've come across so far.

Part 6: Speed Up Windows Boot Time.

Have you ever experienced that after switching on your PC, you'll go and make a cup of coffee, and when you come back to your desk, your PC still not finish booting?

Computers and Keeping Track of Your Employees - Book Review

Most people don't realize it, but after the advent of computers and as the cost became less and less, more and more small businesses were able to afford them. Therefore, they were able to keep track of all their employees, their payroll, and they have nice printed out spreadsheets to give them all the information they needed. Prior to this, everybody had to do things the hard way.

For those that were not around before such computer use they probably don't realize how computer systems for personnel and employee matters revolutionized business. If this topic interests you, then I'd sure like to recommend an excellent book to you because in its day, it told of a bright future, and the solution to the paperwork nightmare that most businesses faced. Luckily, the future is bright and these computer systems make doing business all whole lot easier. The book is;

"Planning and Using a Total Personnel System," by Richard A. Kaumeyer Junior, 1982

Perhaps, the author can explain it better than I, and enlighten you to the differences of before and after; that is to say manual systems versus computer systems. When these systems first came out they had many options and features, not everyone thought they needed all the features, today, all the software systems have all the features, you can choose which one you want. However, this author has the chapters on such things as;

Choosing the Types of Reports You NeedTraining Your Personnel and Computerized Training SystemsThe Future of Personnel Systems

Interestingly enough, the author did peg the future correctly, and when you read the book you'll smile because he was absolutely right. Indeed I hope you will please consider this.

My New iPad: A User's Guide Book Review - No Starch Press Book

Wallace Wang, best seller of My New Mac and My New iPhone for the No Starch Press publisher has written a new book detailing everything you need to know about the iPad in a book called "My New iPad: A User's Guide." No Starch Press provided a reviewer's copy of "My New iPad: A User's Guide" for this review.

"My New iPad: A User's Guide" includes seven chapters including: basic training; customizing your iPad; getting on the Internet; sharing data with your iPad; video, music, and eBooks; organizing yourself and additional tips. Each chapter is small and comes in easily consumable chunks of information that can instantly help new users complete a certain task with easy to follow step by step instructions.

The first chapter called "Basic Training" teaches you how to turn on and off the iPad, what the various buttons and slides perform and how to use and customize the virtual keyboard. Apple changed the Screen Location Lock since the book was published so information has changed since the publish date resulting in incorrect information.

"Customizing Your iPad" is the second chapter that details how to customize your home screen, set the date and time, restoring and resetting your iPad and installing and uninstalling iPad apps.

The third chapter called "Getting on the Internet" shows how to use the email client and web browser called Safari including some intermediate information such as how to use bookmarks and automatically fill out forms with Safari.

If you do not know how to transfer content to your iPad, chapter four is perfect for you. "Sharing Data with Your iPad" shows how to synchronize with iTunes to transfer media such as photos, movies, TV shows and even podcasts. The chapter further goes on to show steps to synch your eBooks, Audio Books, Contacts, Appointments, Mail, Notes, Bookmarks and even iTunes University Courses. The book is light on how to actually configure Yahoo! or Google services with your iPad however.

The next chapter focuses on content consumption on the iPad and it titled "Video, Music and eBooks". This chapter shows you how to watch your photos to listen to your music to watching YouTube videos.

Chapter six focuses on how to use the iPad to keep yourself organized using included iPad apps and is called "Organizing Yourself."

Finally, the last chapter called "Additional Tips" provides some additional miscellaneous tips including how to update the iOS or use foreign languages. This last chapter also includes a section called "Best iPad Apps" which includes some good apps but is dated. To keep up with the best iPad apps, you should watch for articles that continually are updated such as the Gizmos for Geeks Favorite iPad Apps monthly updated list.

I started and finished "My New iPad: A User's Guide" in one afternoon. The book is geared towards new users of not only the iPad device but of Apple's iOS devices including iPod Touch and iPhones and definitely not towards advanced user's of the iOS. For example, this book would be ideal for my parents since they have never used an iOS device, but I found the book way to simplistic to really become engaged.

Doug Felteau enjoys blogging about the latest gadgets and anything technology related and maintains a monthly article on Gizmos for Geeks listing the best iPad apps. An avid iPad user since the device was released, Doug has integrated the device and apps into his everyday life.

Considering on Implementing a Computer System - Some Thoughts on That

If you are a decision maker that will be making recommendations, advising, consulting or even making the final and actual decision on a new computer or IT system then you need to understand the best process. Today's IT systems are costly and understanding this process will keep your organization from making mistakes. Thus, I'd like to recommend a very good book to you:

"Computers for Jumping Profits; Understanding, Selecting, Evaluating and Implementing Computer Systems" by David C. Dykstra; 1983.
This book tells you how to set up a computer system for any small, medium or large business or any organization or government agency. Although the book is older and the technology has changed over the years, the fundamental principles of planning, budgeting, ratios and accounting remain the same.
The author discusses the various folks involved and who their different motivations cause conflict in the implementation phase if a more analytical approach is not taken in the decision making process. For instance the author uses the example of implementing IBM Mainframes and micro-computers and how the advisors and salespeople with different objectives have very different perspectives.
This creates a false reality when doing strategic planning and asset allocations, cost analysis and estimates of return on investment thru productivity and efficiency. The author also discusses employee training costs, temporary slow down until the users are up to speed and other human factors to be considered.
Since this book has to do with IT systems, it also discusses issues with feature creep, challenges with speed, configuration and potential failure. Sometimes IT professionals and definitely their superiors get too caught up in the newest and latest technology and not the reality, functionality or cost.
This book is of value to all those decision makers along the way, the information in it is timeless and it hardly matters the time period or the actual technology involved. It is the decision making process that is important and that is why I highly recommend this book.

Artificial Intelligence Everywhere - A Book Review

Do you ever wonder how our modern day computers came into existence? If you do, then perhaps, you'd like to read some incredible history, and consider all the philosophical debate on artificial intelligence, machine learning, and some of the future perceived uses of this technology. If so, then I'd sure like to recommend an extremely interesting book to you. One that was well ahead of its time, and one that today would still make you think.

Yes, if you are asking, this is a book that's in my personal library. And it is a good book that I'd recommend to you, if this topic interests you. The name of the book is;

"Soft Architecture Machine" by Nicholas Negroponte, MIT Press, MA, 1976, (140 pp), ISBM: 978-02621-4018-8

So, imagine a self creating artificially intelligent CAD CAM software program, which could design buildings, all by itself without a human operator, and these would be buildings that would be more pleasing to humans, than even the buildings that humans build themselves. Now consider artificial intelligence inside your home which constantly manipulates your home for your needs. Sort of like the Bill Gates high-tech home of the future on steroids.

Climate control just happens, it would sense if you were warm or cold or what was needed. Walls would move in, open up as needed, light would be redirected, entire kitchens would fold away, and even the pictures on the wall would change depending on who was walking down the hallway. All that stuff now doesn't seem so exotic, most of it exists, and the rest seems like a very possible future. However this book was written in 1976.

And the folks at MIT were busy figuring out how to design all that back then. Well it's here now, or most of it and the rest will be coming soon. Indeed I hope you will please consider this, and purchase this book if it interests you. Think on it.

Computer Book Review - Microsoft's Next Leap Forward

One of the greatest success stories of all times in the business world is perhaps the story and history of Microsoft. Selling software is a great business because once you create it, you can indeed sell it millions of times. And Microsoft has the advantage because their operating systems run on 95% of all computers in the World. Under the leadership of Bill Gates in all his creating brilliance and genius, he created one of the most dynamic and largest companies on a surface of the planet.

But now that Bill Gates has left the company, many are wondering what comes next. Microsoft is no longer just a software company, as they are involved in the Internet, they run the second largest, and many would agree the best search engine and they are involved in online advertising. Microsoft is also a media company amongst other things. Their research and development departments are on the leading technological edge of just about everything.

Many its software industry analysts wonder what will be the next step for Microsoft. Will Microsoft break off into a spinoff companies? Now that the Federal Trade Commission's unwarranted attacks are completed with Microsoft and the now that Bill Gates has left the company, where will they go today? Indeed, there seems to be a lot of pretty strong opinions and countless predictions on this subject.

One author has some things to say on this issue and whereas, I think she has some very good points, I do not agree with all of her contention, but she brings up some very interesting and philosophical questions. Thus, I'd like to recommend this book to you;

"Microsoft 2.0: How Microsoft plans to Stay Relevant in the Post Gates Era," by Mary Jo Foley, John Wiley and Sons Publishing; 2008.
