Apple Touchscreen Netbook to Launch in October at $800?
Taiwanese news site InfoTimes reports [translation] that Apple is slated to debut its long-rumored netbook this October. Taiwanese companies Foxconn, Wintek, and Dynapack have reportedly received orders from Apple related to the manufacturing of the new device.
The report notes that Apple is looking to adopt a 9.7-inch touchscreen for the new netbook, slightly smaller than the 10.1- or 10.2-inch screens typically used at the large end of the netbook range.
...
Exact pricing remains unknown at this time, but the inclusion of a touchscreen and Apple's history of refusing to compete at the lowest price points suggest that the netbook may be priced at around $800.
Power Supply Calculator
For when you're building your own computer and need to know how big a power supply to get.
Question: about, oh 2 hours ago, while running the installation for McAfee I got a message that said, "Please ait while Windows configures McAfee VirusScan Enterprise" and the time remaining said 30 seconds.
Do I need to re-install since it's been hanging for 2 hours?
Try ctrl-shift-esc to bring up the Task Manager and see if it is still running any processes?
I mean - when I check processes - there are many that are running (55).
Anything specific to McAfee? There may be a lot of processes listed, but probably few that are very active, using much % of system resources.
Under the applications tab, is the McAfee installer showing as "not responding," or at all?
You might want to Ctl-Tab through your application, in case there's an open dialog box (that you have to answer) under something.
It finally cleared out. Whew.
I don't know what it was waiting for.
