    i need help

    First thing, you might want to get a lawyer, and then you might want to consider how your going to payback Microsoft for the $1M Trademark Infringement that will be taken out of ANY paycheck, tax rebate, etc. until the penalty is paid back. No you can NOT create a "2D version of game Halo 2"...

    Google is your friend. Simply type in the computer name, like the ACER and you will find reviews and other stuff on it. In this case AMAZON's page say "Up to 7-Hours Battery Life" https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Predator-Helios-GeForce-G3-571-77QK/dp/B06Y4GZS9C So yes the better specs make it a...

    any free or low-cost alternative to Google doc?

    Any ONLINE solutions will always be slower than a program run locally on your hard drive. There is not 'alternative' way 'online'. If your real goal is just 'sharing' or always having ONLINE access to the documents (not editing online) then use Google Drive, OneDrive, etc. out there to always...

    I have 2 laptops same model but model number is written different

    If your talking one has a lower case "t" and the other has a upper case "T" as you wrote them, that still makes them the SAME. There isn't a 'upper case' verses 'lower case' model differences.

    Do Torrents Continue to Seed even when you turn off your PC?

    No power, then nothing is on, how can it be 'doing' anything? Now if you just turn off the monitor (not the PC itself) then the computer itself is still on and thus will still 'do' stuff.

    Cannot type with keyboard

    Then plug in a external keyboard and see if that works. Sounds like someone may have spilled something on the keyboard and now your keyboard is fried. No it isn't cost effective to 'replace' the keyboard (if this is a generic low cost dell), and depending how OLD this laptop is.

    What laptop can i best buy for a course gamedevelopment and a good gaming experience ?

    Well I would suggest a few things. If your doing rendering for gaming (Game development) then your looking for a machine with a Nvidia Quadro, which renders the graphics elements (the actual model, texture, space of the scene, etc.) but poorly performs on gaming. If you want a Gaming laptop then...

    Solved! Curious about unlocked Samsung Galaxy S8+

    Having two different brands and provider phones sitting in front of me, I can tell you what it depends on is how the phone is 'unlocked' per se. I.e. did you purchase it from Samsung (which you can) unlocked OR are you going to "a few resell sites" which claim to unlock the phone by 'hacking'...

    Best game & video streaming laptops for your buck (Powerhouses wanted)

    1) TH does not support in anyway any illegal activity nor support to help you 'access' those without being infected or such. Only way is NOT TO DO IT. 2) If you bothered to look at the link I provided it gave you all the information about laptops for 2017 for gaming, INCLUDING a similiar one...

    I have a Dell inspiron 15 5567 with the i5 processor. But i would like to know if i could upgrade to an i7 and how

    Laptops as a 'rule of thumb' are not 'upgradeable' that way for 'off the shelf' systems, unless you buy into a special model series that has 'some' upgradable parts. CPU is NOT one of them, because they are actually SOLDERED to the Motherboard. Secondly ANY change to the CPU or Motherboard...
