OVERLOAD ELECTRICAL HAZARD TO MONITOR

The computer monitor is one of the hardware that is sensitive to electric voltage. Home electricity usually like up and down and this could affect the health of the monitor. But it can be overcome by using a stabilizer. However, there is a problem that sometimes we do not realize, that when the electricity goes out.

When the computer turns off due to power outages, it can damage the hard drive. However, when the electric flame again, this could damage the monitor. This is because the electric shock flame gives a voltage that can damage the monitor. It is suggested, if the power outage occurs, position the stabilizer on off, or unplug the monitor cable to menghndari shock ignition voltage when the power returned.

These events mostly occur on CRT monitors. Maybe from there you want to add. May be useful.

Acer Aspire S3 Ultrabook

 This was the era of Ultrabook. Immediately changed the world of mobile computing with the presence of this new genre. After notebooks and netbooks, is now present Ultrabook. Acer course to stay ahead by providing one of the world's first Ultrabook, Aspire S3.

Ultrabook is a new genre that would soon flood the market. The idea is to combine the convenience of a tablet with the productivity capabilities of a notebook that is powered. Dimensions are thin, light weight, instant on (directly ready to use when turned on), and battery life in standby condition is desirable from a tablet. However, the lack of productivity capabilities of a tablet makes it less reliable when they are working hard. All these aspects are combined in a Ultrabook.

Basically Ultrabook will have some of the following aspects:

1.      Dimensional thin, under 20 mm thick on the side
2.      mild
3.      Instant on, making it ready to use in a matter of a few seconds after turned on
4.      Using an Intel Core i3, i5, i7 or second generation (Sandy Bridge) type of ULV (Ultra Low Voltage) which makes it have high performance with minimum battery life of 5 hours when used on the move.

 If the standard of a ultrabook already look good, you will be amazed with the Aspire S3. Ultrabook this one has a variety of advantages that make it different from standard Ultrabook, even compared to some Ultrabook that has not been launched.

 

Acer Aspire S3 Ultrabook SPECIFICATIONS:
Processor: 2nd-generation Core i3, i5, i7 ultra-low voltage CPU
Screen: 13.3-inch HD LED, 1366 x 768
Connectors: 2x USB 2.0, HDMI-out port
Storage: 320 GB Hybrid HDD + 20 GB SSD (as a cache drive)
Card reader: support SD Card and MultiMediaCards
Webcam: Integrated Acer Crystal Eye 1.3MP camera and microphone
Connectivity: Acer InviLink Nplify 802.11 b / g / n Wi-Fi CERTIFIED, Bluetooth 4.0 + HSR
Audio: Dolby Home Theater v4, audio combo jack
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
Body: Aluminum Magnesium-alloy chassis and a lid with a fingerprint-free metal finish
Keyboard: Full-size chiclet keyboard Acer FineTip

 

Dimensions and Design

Dimensions Aspire S3 relatively much thinner than a Ultrabook baseline. Aspire S3 has a thickness of only 13mm on the front side and only 17mm thick at the far (back). Weight Ultrabook with screens 13.3 "is also only around 1.35 Kg. This means the Aspire S3 has a similar weight netbook with a 10 "and thicknesses do not vary much with a tablet PC.

Thin and light design at S3 Aspire is not accompanied by downsizing of the input component (pointing device and keyboard). You can still enjoy a normal-sized chiclet keyboard and pointing device (touch pad) with a surface area. Touchpad used on the Aspire S3 is large with a minimalist design. You will not see a button to click the right and left. "Left click" can be done by pressing the touchpad a bit deeper. While the "right click" done by pressing the lower right corner of the touch pad is deeper. An arrangement that allows the surface of the touchpad are large with maximum wear comfort.

Instant-on dan instant connect
Ended the period in which we've always done to save battery notebook shutdown. When using Ultrabook, you do not need to turn off all applications when finished a session of use. You simply close the Ultrabook sleep alone and let the process work. Ultrabook When activated, within a few seconds, Windows was instantly alive and all applications can be used directly.
Instant-on feature on the Aspire S3 will be different with a standard Ultrabook. If Ultrabook generally run the process instant-on when the power button (or other keyboard button) is pressed, the Aspire S3 to life when you open it. The process of instant-on the Aspire S3 takes less than 2 seconds (from sleep states). Practically, when the screen is already open at the desired position, you can directly operate.
After passing through the 8 hours of sleep states, the Aspire S3 will enter the stage of deep sleep to save battery life further. From the condition of deep sleep, the Aspire S3 only takes less than 6 seconds to be operated. This condition is still much faster than the process startup or wake-up a regular notebook, which is fast though.
One more thing that's unique feature instant-on is instant-connect. If before entering the phase of sleep, the Aspire S3 are connected to wifi, at the time of life with instant-on ultrabook directly be connected to wifi as well. So, in addition to life, the direct application ready to use, also have a direct network connectivity can be used.

Battery Life
Battery life on the Aspire S3 sleep and deep sleep state is also quite long. When entering the sleep state (30 minutes of inactivity) Aspire S3 is able to maintain power in the battery up to 30 days. While in a state of deep sleep (after 480 minutes of inactivity), the Aspire S3 is able to maintain battery power up to 50 days.
Unibody design of the Aspire S3 does not allow you to replace your own battery. However, with the battery life is very good (up to 6 hours for the version of the hard drive and 7 hours for the SSD version), it seems you are not going to need a battery backup. Keep in mind, because it uses a method of instant-on, you do not need to do a shut-down process. You simply close this ultrabook and let it enter into the phase of sleep that will preserve battery power to tens of days.
The process of instant-on also will save battery usage, because the system does not need to go through the startup process of a long and draining power. Meanwhile, the method of charging batteries in Acer notebook famous effective and friendly to the batteries is also implemented on the Aspire S3. This is to ensure the integrity of the battery in the long term.

Processor and performance
Aspire S3 processors used is the Intel Core i3, i5, i7 Ultra Low Voltage or second generation (Sandy Bridge). Performance it offers not much different than the Core i3, i5, or second-generation i7 mobile version (for notebooks). This is due to the fabrication process and 32nm Sandy Bridge architecture that has been very efficient in presenting high performance. In addition, the availability of the latest HD VGA Intel in the processor will make it able to run Full HD movies (and even some movies at the same time) with ease. In fact, some mainstream 3D games can be played with this VGA system.


Storage: 2 Smart Choice
Storage facilities (storage) S3 Aspire was quite unique. There are two options available: SSD or hard drive. For the SSD version, of course, high performance and the instant-on into something quite natural. For hard drive version (320GB), the Aspire S3 actually use 20GB SSD that is used to improve overall storage performance. Instant-on becomes very fast in the presence of this additional SSD. Meanwhile, the overall system performance, is also increased because the SSD is used for the primary cache in read-write process. The same method has been implemented on a desktop system based Sandy bridge with the latest chipset, which results in improved storage performance significantly.
With the above method, the Aspire S3 (hard disk version) combines the performance of an SSD with a large capacity SSD, without sacrificing price. It is a very interesting and rarely encountered in other ultrabook.
 
Performance Multimedia: Audio and Video
 
Play video FullHD our fixed ujikan, even with the use HD3000 on Intel processors, the Aspire S3 should not be experiencing significant problems. In testing, but we can see that video FullHD (1080p) can be rotated easily, processor usage was relatively very low.
Youtube is one of the most popular source for entertainment in the form of video streaming. Running a high-quality videos from Youtube often creates problems for some types of old notebooks and netbooks of course. Acer Aspire S3 can easily stream high-definition video from Youtube, without any problems with the performance of its hardware. Of course, to do this you must also be supported with Internet connectivity that is qualified.
Notebooks usually have tiny little speakers. The effect, let alone talk about sound quality, to listen to the sound produced is quite difficult because it is less loud speakers. It is not found at the Aspire S3. Dolby sound has completed its sound system. Kelantangan speakers could only be rivaled some of the large-sized notebook PCs. In essence, the Aspire S3 users will not need a portable speaker to boost volume his speakers.

Gaming performance

For the game, though Ultrabook not designed for gaming, we still try. Some mainstream 3D games such as FIFA, PES, and starcraft can still be played with quite smoothly with this Ultrabook. Encouraging results, considering notebooks with small dimensions seldom exist that are designed to be used to play games.
Of course, with the Aspire S3 You can also play social games such as those available on facebook and even games that exist in appup.com. So, if you want to fill spare time while waiting for friends or clients at a café, just point the browser to facebook and continue your adventure with the Aspire S3.




So, if you want the ease and convenience of a tablet with the performance of a top class notebook, the Aspire Ultrabook S3 is the most appropriate choice. You no longer need to carry a notebook and tablet PCs to obtain the advantages of both. Moreover, the Aspire S3 comes with a large data storage capacity, without sacrificing performance and the price was still affordable.
