New site? Maybe some day.

Really, this is the first lappy I have ever bought. HP had a 33% off deal. This is another reason that web access failed while trying to do RTTP this week. Here are the details:

I ran my image processing software on 212 - 16 mega pixel pictures:
$10K server at work: 1.2 minutes
work laptop (i5-2520): 3.5 minutes
new laptop: 2.14 minutes
Then I took out the 1TB and put in a 240GB SSD
new laptop (SSD): 1.3 minutes
So I will be happy with this camera I guess. |

oh and thank you to my new sponsor AMEX for this purchase. |
|
ITT: my large donation to tips@rttp.us gets used |
|
heh, thanks. I actually thought that alex made a fake account. |
|
Honestly, had I not recently moved and had more money, I would've donated a lot more due to the damage I've caused to the forum over the years. |
|
nice, get rid of the crapware and that's a nice desktop replacement |
|
Wil donate more soon. Send me your old laptop. |
|
rock those adobe elements |
|
that SSD performance increase is no joke. |
|
I have been meaning to get a SSD for my laptop too. |
|
I've never bought a laptop before. My "old" laptop is my work laptop and it sit at work. The whole reason for that is cause our source control at work over VPN takes 45 minutes to check in 5 files. Now, I leave the laptop at work and remote desktop into it to develop and it's soooo much better.
This laptop can drive the primary display + 2 other connected displays and one other display over dlna. I haven't tried the network display yet. And I need a displayport to hdmi converter.
Right now, I'm using 2x23" monitors pushed together to one giant display that is something like 2200x2048 |
|
Solid State Disk? Fool. Tube disks are better. |
|
Do the rumors about SSD's burning out after being written to so many times have any validity? That was what kept me from upgrading to them all along. Ark, that link looks very informative but I don't have time to read it all. |
|
I'm going to fap to ark's article later. I've had a 120GB SSD in 2 different servers over 4 years or so. In that time, I've had more than 8 hd die and no SSD's die. |
|
meh, i don't know. i haven't heard those rumors. i've been running 2 in raid0 on my desktop as my OS drive for almost 2 years and no problems at all. basically SSDs do a lot of work to make itself almost transparent to the system between the drive and RAM. |
|
and at work we've had zero problems in laptops, we don't use them in servers yet. |
|
It might have been when SSD's were coming into the retail stream that I heard that rumor. Thanks for clarifying, I know what my next OS drive will be. |
|
I gotta invest in a new one soon. Mine's several years old and getting sloooow. I use it for work, so I guess I gotta suck it up, but it totally digs into the firearms/ammo/tackle budget. |
|
hm.. I thought I got this laptop in 2011 not 2012. |
|
The year is 2015 and I love my ssd. |
|
I put an SSD in this laptop (and all my laptops) |
