Q. I purchased a small dell notebook computer almot two years ago. It sucks. Is it possible to remove the oerating system and replace it with a dfferent operating system? Say an android os or MAC os? I want to do something cool with the hardware.
A. "Jailbreak" would not be the correct term, but you can certainly replace the operating system.
As for loading a unique operating system onto it, such as MAC OS, you might want to check this out: http://www.hackintosh.com/ , although it does require some technical knowledge (e.g. the hardware in your computer) and ethics come into question, though if you're fine with jailbreaking chances are you'll be fine with this.

I want a tablet with a Digitizer pen and keyboard. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Q. When I was in college the IT Center allowed the students to borrow a tablet PC and I fell in love with it. It had a keyboard and Digitizer pen. I have been going crazy searching for something similar with no luck. Someone recommended the HP TouchSmart tm2-2150us Notebook PC. I want a tablet with a Digitizer pen and keyboard. Does anyone have any further recommendation?
A. I have had mine for a week. Typing on it now. After removing a lot of the hp junk put on the computer, and getting the running processes down to about 60 from over 100 it is a pretty fast machine. Figure you will need a few days to get the settings to your liking and optimize windows 7. . If you are not tech savvy it would help to have someone who is help you to set it up to run well for your needs. Before fixing it up it was slower than my older laptop. I used the hp installed software and did a reinstall of the operating system using the choice for installing windows 7 and minimal hp software, then removed some more and stopped useless background processes. Other people feel reinstalling wndows is better.
As a student or teacher you should join hpa (hp academy) You can get it for 750 plus tax delivered, or a bit less if you put it in your cart to hold, then wait a few days till they send you some discount coupons Otherwise think it runs about 50 more. Do not think there is anything comparable in the price range. You get a full pc for a little more than the cost of a good tablet.
good sound quality, not bad speakers for a laptop, for some reason better when in tablet mode.
The digitizer pen works very well to navigate, draw or write.
The touchscreen works, but does not seem to be nearly as accurate as an ipad or high quality android device.Definitely usable with calibration and some practice.
Keyboard rocks, screen is nice but very glossy.
Seems to be very well built for a hp laptop.
easy to manipulate,
I find it light and easy to carry but I am a 6 foot guy. Is a bit thick.
Good battery life, seems to be 5 or more hours with average use.
are a few odd things that do not work perfectly, software conflicts with some drawing apps like sketchbook, turning screen and other things. They all have easy work arounds.
HP support has only been good for their standard protocols, other than that they are nice, but do not seem to really get it.

What is the advantages and disadvantages of iPad?
Q. Is it good to browse in the Internet with multiples sites? Can iPad replace the notebook, if you already have other computer?
P.S: I'm Brazilian... Is my English good?
P.S: I'm Brazilian... Is my English good?
A. Advantages of iPad:
big screen, nice user interface, and 300,000 apps available through iTunes store
Disadvantages of iPad:
it's too big to be really mobile, the screen is highly reflective and is very bad for reading/viewing in many lighting conditions, doesn't have USB port, only Apple-approved apps.
I would recommend instead Nook Color from Barnes & Noble which is a hybrid Android eReader/tablet device and has USB port (unlike iPad). Nook Color has a new generation screen which is anti-glare coated and is better performing in sunlight and for reducing eye strain than iPad's. The screen is one of the best and sharpest on the market and it's viewable at wide angles. It is great for PDF's, much better than Kindle. From the cost side, you can buy two Nook Color's for the price of one iPad.
