Are laptop computers as good as standard ones?
Sep 21st
I never had a laptop but somehow I feel the screens are smaller than standard computers. Do people that own laptops like them better than standard computers or is it the convenience of taking the laptop where they want?
Why were computers given the ability to flip the display?
Sep 20th
If you don’t know what I mean press and hold CTRL + ALT and then press the arrow keys and the display will flip in accordance with whichever arrow key you press.
Anyway, what was that invented for? Since on most computers you cannot use them any other way than upright.
Cheers. Yeah but you can’t mount a laptop sideways.

How popular were computers when you were in high school? And what year did you graduate?
Sep 11th
I graduated in 2009. Nuff said. Obviously, computers were popular when I was in high school.
Social networking (MySpace) was just becoming popular at the beginning of high school. By the end of high school, facebook was the big thing.
The funny thing is, though, computers are so popular now and we’ve come a long way since 2005 (when I started high school). So in a way, 2005 is old-fashioned compared to now.

Why does this webpage display differently on my home computer than other computers?
Sep 10th
When I check my e-mail at home the log in page has a light blue colored boarder around a white background and an other wise white page. However, when I go to the page anywhere else the colors are a darker blue boarder that is more noticeable. I’ve checked it on several computers and the imagine appears much darker and more profound on them vs how it appears on my home computer. No other webpage seems to have this issue I just don’t get it.
If I have two computers running Skype on the same network, transferring a file, does it use bandwidth?
Sep 6th
I have two computers at home. Computer A and Computer B are on the same wireless network. If both are running Skype, and I transfer a file (collection of pictures = 4-5 gigs) from one computer to another using Skype, does the first computer upload the content to a Skype server and the second computer downloads it from the Skype server?
Or, does Skype just use the router in place to transfer the file?
Thanks in advanced!
How to deauthorize computers for iTunes?
Aug 27th
I have apparently maxed out my authorized computers for iTunes. I have no idea which computers I have authorized in the past to go back and deauthorize them individually. I have considered “deauthorizing all computers” but I fear this will screw with my purchased music (if not, correct me). Is there a way to deauthorize other computers from the computer that I currently use? What is the best way to fix my problem? I need to authorize the computer that I just had restored.
