Vintage Apple PC sells for over $200k!!!

Its processor works 1000 times slower than the Apple iPad, but the first ever Apple computer has sold for 425 times the price.

The Apple I, one of only 200 such models ever made, was sold on Tuesday at Christie's auction house in central London for £133,250 (AU$215,092). It came with its original packaging and a signed sales letter from Steve Jobs the current CEO and co-founder of Apple.

When the Apple I was introduced in 1976, it was the only personal computer to come with a fully assembled motherboard, making it ready to use straight from the box, provided the user supplied a keyboard, power supply and display, Christie's said.

It sold for US$666.66 and was available until it was discontinued in 1977.

DISPOSABLE PHONES!!!

We have disposable spoons, disposable plates, disposable bags and a lot of other disposable suffs for our own convenience. Who would have thought of disposable phones? Have you? Well, there’s a lot of disposable phones- an imitation phone coming from china or the so called CHINA PHONES. IT may be cheaper but will usually last for 6 months and has LOW QUALITY, NO WARRANTY, NO AVAILABLE PARTS, NO SERVICE CENTERS. You have to frustratingly deal with these phones when you found out factory damage, and dispose it when damage occur, thus making it really a disposable phone. Not only did these phones are DISPOSABLE but an imitation phone in other words it’s FAKE, so it is illegally sold. Why settle for less, when you can buy the ORIGINAL , there are so many original phones in the market everywhere. BUY THE ORIGINAL!

Can you consume 32 Gigabytes?

What you think? Can you? I notice that 32 gig is now the trend with the new phones but I think 32 gig is such a huge memory to consume, it takes a lot of downloading transferring of files.  Bear in mind that the cost of the phone depends also on how much gigabytes available, the bigger the higher the cost.  The phone which has bigger memory is more expensive.  So, if you think you can't consume that huge memory, it's always a smart decision to acquire phones with lesser memory card but with the same features with these 32 gig memory card phones. In that way, you can afford and save more but not compromising the features you want for a phone.

QUICK TIPS on WHAT PHONE TO BUY:

Some may opt to buy what is popular, and commercialized on TV and other media outlets. Yeah, it is usually right because  these products are really edgy, but there are practical things to consider on what phone to buy. Basically there are three things to consider: PRICE, QUALITY and FEATURES. The new platform of phones today are software base like the computer, there is the built in and pre installed applications (including games) which you can avail outright when you buy it but aside from that,  you can also download and install more softwares.  NOTE: You can enhance it's Features by adding more softwares which is  supported by  it's platform and operating system, in other words you are not limited by what the built in and pre installed applications has to offer for you.  GENERAL CATEGORIES: 1.BUSINESS ORIENTED PHONE 2.ENTERTAINMENT ORIENTED PHONE 3.WEB ORIENTED PHONE   4 Quick Tips on what  mobile PHONE to buy:  NOTE: Check the specifications(SPECS) of the phone.  First, you have to find out the Processor and the speed – higher speed means the phone runs faster, it processes faster, and responds faster to any actions you want with your phone. Like my phone, the Processor is ARM 11 – 369 MHz maximum speed, but there are higher speed available.  Second, choose an Operating System of a phone, which supports a lot of software available for your phone so that you can download and install software that you need and want to for your phone. By having a Phone which supports a lot of software available in the web gives you an edge in enhancing your phone features by adding more applications on your phone and transform your phone just like the popular and expensive phone has to offer. Just like my Symbian S60 (Operating system) mobile phone. Third, Check the Upload 9 (UL) and Download (DL) speed, for faster internet uploads and downloads Fourth, Check the battery standby time, having more software features of the phone which consumes more battery power than just the basic use of phone, so you really need a longer battery time. RECOMMENDATION: You don’t really have to buy those phones which are popular and expensive, especially if you don’t have enough budget or you want to SAVE money, but still you can enjoy the same features with those expensive phones have by just being a SMART buyer and following my tips above. Ain’t that cool to know that with not too expensive phones but still you can enjoy those that an expensive phones has to offer by just adding on those softwares that expensive phone have.

Why PHONE MEMORY becomes lesser even you are saving your files in the memory card?

You may be wondering why that happens and when you check it with your file manager, you can’t see what files consumed your phone memory.  It is normal that it gets lesser, because every time you use your phone especially when you are surfing the net, all the caches and some text files and unreadable files from your downloads are automatically saved in the phone memory and most of these files are hidden, files which cannot be seen in your built in file manager.  So, in order to locate and see those hidden files is to download and install a File browser. These file browser can delete all unnecessary and useless hidden files to keep your phone memory up. RECOMMENDATION: You can install X-plore at lonelycatgames.com or  Y-browser at symbian-freak.com. 

Does your Smartphone crash, hang & restart?

  Most smartphones still have a less RAM memory which is the major reason why your phone crash, hang or restart in the middle of using some applications, especially surfing the net. Every time you open an application with your mobile phone the lesser your RAM memory it becomes, so the more applications you open the more your RAM memory gets lesser and when it really becomes lesser, shall we say the RAM is under 5% out of it’s total memory by running more applications makes the phone normally crash, hang and even restart.  Normally an average smartphones has 60 to 80 available RAM memory left depending on how many applications are installed in your phone which consist of the built in applications, applications you installed(games included) and hidden applications(aps you may not see it in your normal file browsers) every time you turn it on.  Because the home screen, menu screen and  the notification apps automatically runs and that also consumes your RAM memory. That is why your phone is left with at least 60 to 80% of it’s total RAM memory depending also on  the built in RAM of your phone.

   
   I said especially surfing the net because internet browsers as an application consumes more RAM memory because of the contents of some sites really demands more RAM memory. RECOMMENDATION: Avoid running several applications at one time to keep more RAM Memory available and also you can download and install RAM Memory applications which keeps the  Memory UP and prevent your phone from hanging, crashing or restarting.  Also you install a software wherein it let’s you monitor how much RAM Memory left to keep you aware when your phone is running out of RAM.  To keep you aware of how many applications running in the background, and lets you end some applications running. Here are the softwares which I am using with my phone, Memory up, RAMblow also you can try Swiss manager to augment your protection from crashing, hanging and restarting. NOTE:   If there are really times wherein you were not able to monitor the RAM Memory and it reaches already to a low memory and did make your phone stop responding, by that time you need to really manually restart your phone to let your phone recover from low RAM memory.  But constantly restarting your phone will wear down the battery life, thus you really have to follow my Recommendations above, which is based on my personal encounter with Smartphones.

Dropping my Phone makes it even better!!!

Some smartphone users wanted to have a  restart feature on their smartphones to make the restarting process more quick, just like on the PC it has a restart feature, but in my case I was able to have that restart feature on my smartphone  after I accidentally drop my phone with the head where power key is located was headed first on the hard floor, and after a few days I just found out that I already have that restart feature on my phone wherein I can restart my phone by just one click on the power key button, it will restart automatically. A quicker way to restart my phone instead of clicking the power key button twice, turn it off and then turn it on in order to restart the phone, unless it’s being prompted to restart after installing some software which needs to restart to take effect. But in my case whether it’s not being prompted to restart, I can restart anytime by just one click. What a great new feature that I acquire after dropping accidentally my phone without installing any restart software, but the only thing is that I can’t turn off my phone anymore, unless the battery is totally drained.  But I think having this restart feature on my phone through accidental dropping is better than the normal feature(before I drop). Anyway smartphones are built to stay on for real time purposes. Well, if you have enough courage and well prepared with whatever the outcome of your phone, you can try to emulate what I accidentally did with my phone, who knows you can be lucky like me, to have that restart feature with my phone and not obtaining more hardware damage than that, a damage that I can consider a welcome accident for me. Hehe..  You may emulate what I accidentally did with my phone but the gamble is, can your phone withstand that kind of fall? Or it can be worst that will happen to your phone.  WARNING: Pls. don’t try it with your smartphone, knowing that these phones are not like the basic phones that is built to withstand several fall, these may cause severe damage to your phone.  My experience just shows how weak the hardwares of these newer kind of phones from dropping and shaking.  RECOMMENDATION: Always tie your phone at your wrist to avoid accidental dropping, because dropping these kind phones may damage the hardware easily.
