Acer Aspire L5100 Refurbished Desktop PC
This Acer Veriton small desktop computer comes loaded with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ processor running at 2.2GHz and with 1MB of cache. It also has 3GB of DDR2 SODIMM memory, a 320GB SATA hard drive, gigabit LAN, and integrated ATI Radeon X1250 graphics with DVI, HDMI, and DVI-VGA adapter. You also get a DVD and CD burner that can burn DVD-RAM discs. All these features run on an AMD 690G chipset motherboard with S/PDIF connector. All running with security and stability with an Microsoft's Windows Vista Home Premium. A multimedia keyboard and mouse and a set of speakers complete this package.
AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core Processor
Frustrated by staring at the hourglass icon as soon as you try to work on more than three programs at once, especially when you’re working with digital media? Increase your performance with the AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual core processor. Work or play with multiple programs without any stalling or waiting. Dual-core technology is like having two processors, and two working together is better and faster than one working alone. Do more in less time with the AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual-core processor.
Ultra Compact Desktop Computer.
This ultra-compact system has a physical volume of just over three quarts (three liters), about one-tenth the size of typical tower desktops. The almost-silent operation of the Acer Veriton (26 decibels, better than the industry standard) is conducive to a productive work environment. In addition, its low power consumption prolongs component life and reduces long-term costs. Measuring just 9.8" (W) x 7.8" (D) x 2.4" (H), the Acer Veriton PC occupies less space than an letter-sized sheet of paper allowing it to be easily integrated into any office environment and adapt as your business expands. With its ultra compact form, the Acer Veriton is more than ten times smaller than modern tower PCs for a cleaner and quieter work area.

| The desktop itself is just fine! Very small size, very good looking. I love it. The only thing I was not impressed is the missing wireless mouse in the box (there was wire mouse instead). Also the DVI-to-VGA adaptor was missing. I've contacted with TigerDirect support (which itself is very good) and they send me another wireless mouse and keyboard for free, however the quality of this new set is very poor and unfortunately the connectior type for the keyboard and mouse is PS/2 and this model has only USB ports. |

| Has been a problem ever since I got it. First the keyboard and mouse that came with it did not work, so I had to go get a usb keyboard and mouse, then It worked great for one day, The second day it would not play Dvd's then the thrid day it would turn on, but no signal to the monitor... even hooked the monitor up to another computer to make sure It wasnt on my end. And I made a back up disk, just like they tell you to, that was the first thing i did, and it didnt work... because It wouldnt read any dvds. Because it is referbished you cant send it back, you have to go threw acer. Just keep that in mind when ordering. |

| Received as described, on time. This tiny machine will make you think it cost a fortune. All around good performer, good speed, great value. Only issue was that the wrong power cord was sent out packaged with unit and VGA to HDMI adapter not in box as decribed. BEWARE. A little over 2 weeks later, we are up and running.
This machine is hooked up to Acer's 22'' MONSTROUS lcd which looks phenomenal. Highly recommended. |

Even The Best Hard Drives Die.
Do You Back Up?
Businesses of all sizes
are witnessing an explosion in the volume of data they hold. Whether it is
the result of the Internet, email, or increasingly heavy and media-rich
application software, there is a massive growth in the volume of data all
around. Conservative estimates place data growth at approximately 80% per
year. Data is increasingly being recognized as one of the real assets of a
company, and losing this data would cause severe damage to any organization.
Data loss can be very costly, particularly for
organizations in the small and medium business (SMB) market where the
difference between survival and closure can rest on the ability to recover
from a disaster. At the very least, critical data loss will have a financial
impact on companies of all sizes:
|
Data type |
Time to re-create 20 MB |
Cost |
|
Sales and marketing |
19 days |
$17,000 |
|
Accounting |
21 days |
$19,000 |
|
Engineering |
42 days |
$98,000 |
The financial impact on a company is a combination
of loss of business, low productivity, legal action, and the cost of
re-creating data. A study showed that the cost of re-creating just 20 MB of
data can be extensive!
Your best solution, is an external drive as a
backup. You can have multiple drives, and it is much easier restore
from a portable external drive, as opposed to CDs or DVDs.

Why Do I Have
Less Drive Space?
Your hard drive may show less space than the published specifications due to
a number of reasons.
- The way size is calculated and
displayed.
- Any "Partitions" on the disk will
change the total in a specific partition.
- Hidden files and folders decrease
available space.
- Compression increases the apparent
size, but not the physical size.
- Drives larger than the OS or Drivers
natively supports.
 First, the definition of a megabytes
(or gigabytes) is a unit of data storage capacity measured in 1,048,576
bytes (or 1024KB). The larger the numbers, the more apparent the size
difference will be when listing the size as megabytes (or gigabytes) versus
bytes. Actually, both numbers are correct. The noticeable difference is due
to the 1024KB definition of a megabyte. This is why a 95.3GB hard drive can
also be listed as having 102 billion bytes of total space. Just think
of it as "round off" In the screen shot at right:
The first number is the total number of bytes,
the second number is based on the number of megabytes or gigabytes.
Second, some computers have a
non-DOS hard drive partition that is used for features such as Save to Disk,
Hibernation, or Recovery. This partition is not normally reported by the
operating system, although it can be viewed using a disk partition utility.
This is very common on desktops and laptops. NOTE:
Partition information will be created or
formatted automatically during initial system setup and a system recovery.
Third, by default, all system files
are hidden and cannot be seen. This may adversely affect the reporting of
available hard drive space. You can set your Folder Options so you view
system and hidden files and folders, but do be careful as changes to system
files can adversely affect your system.
Fourth, if you turn on Compression
for a drive, it will increase reported free space and used space, but since
compression is based upon the actual contents, this number is not fixed, but
will change as files are added or changed.
Fifth, older operating systems did
not support some of today's larger drives, so the total space reported may
be much smaller than the drive specifications.
It is also worth noting that bad sectors
are corrected by your operating system and can change the total drive space,
free space, or used space as well.
So as long as a drive is reporting a value
approximately close to the specification value, you can be comfortable that
you received the right drive and that you are getting to correct data
storage. Of course, tuning of your drive's partitions and options can
yield optimal values, but this is not something for the average user to
explore. |

Got Enough
Memory? Bet You'll Need More!
Windows Vista and today's software
applications make much greater demands on your system's memory. Adding
peripherals, like webcams, USB hard drives, and complex Internet pages, all
take memory. Watching DVD movies, or watching videos on the web, or
playing PC based games demand increased memory. So take full
advantage of your system's potential, your operating system's enhancement
and entertainment capabilities, and your software's productivity by expanding
your system memory!The best time to
add more memory is when you buy your system! Get the memory that's
right for your computer, whether laptop, desktop, or All-In-One.

Shared
Memory? Or Where Did My Memory Go?
Your computer uses memory to run your
Operating System, applications, peripherals, and to generate and display
graphics on your computer monitor. Video memory is a form of RAM, and is
either built into your motherboard; or on a graphics card (video card).
Depending on the motherboard's configuration, and that of the video card (if
separate or built-in to the motherboard), your computer may have to draw on
its own RAM memory to meet its video memory needs. This creates shared
memory, where your computer’s RAM will be shared between its own Processor
(CPU) and its graphics chip.
The result is that some systems will have
shared memory, some will not. If you have 2GB (for example) of system
memory installed, you may notice that your system reports significantly less
memory. This is because your system is using shared memory for your
video.
What can you do about this?
You can actually configure this shared memory through your computer’s BIOS
settings. However, this is a setting best left alone, since it is
typically optimized for display performance, and making changes may impact
display resolutions, and other video capabilities.
The simplest solution is usually to either:
increase your system memory; or to upgrade the video hardware. By
upgrading to a new video card with built-in video memory, then turning off
shared memory, you will free your system to use it's maximum potential
memory, and provide your system with much more robust video features.

How Much
Memory Do You Really Have?
When you look at the specifications for a computer, it will display the
installed memory, and typically the maximum memory that can be installed.
However, while these are real values, they represent a potential useable
memory. The actual useable memory may be different from these values.
The reason is simply that a computer may configured to use shared memory,
which reduces the amount of RAM that is available to the CPU by using
some of it for other purposes, such as for video memory. In some
cases, you can control the maximum useable memory through system settings,
and by upgrading to a video card that has internal onboard video memory.
But always
remember, that the amount of memory that your system reports, is not always
the amount of actual installed memory. If you find that you need more
memory, we suggest expanding your system memory, since this is the most
effective performance increase, and the one that is easiest to perform .
