How should I interpret this set of laptop specifications?
Hi, the
This is not C++, but I think it will get some quick response for my Laptop decision. I expect my notebook doesn't inhibit me from editing digital pictures due to LCD displays. What does the "Maximum Resolution1024x768" and "Max resolution (with max video RAM)2048x1536" mean? If I order this machine with RAM upgraded to 512MB, will I get a resolution of 2048x1536 anyway? Thanks. ------------------------- Display/MonitorExternal display supportedYesSimultaneous external displayYesScreen Type DescriptionTFTViewable Image Size (Diagonal) Inches15.0Screen IlluminationBacklitGrey Shades or Colours Max Built in Screen16777216Maximum Resolution1024x768 Graphics SubsystemDescriptionIntel Extreme Graphics 2TypeXGAVideo RAM typeDVMTMax resolution (with max video RAM)2048x1536 16777216 coloursMaximum Simultaneous Colours16777216Graphics bus interfaceDirect AGPVideo on PlanarYes ----------------------- http://www-605.ibm.com/webapp/wcs/st...y?productId=33 068122&storeId=702&langId=702&categoryId=8655975&d ualCurrId=97&catalogId=-70 2 |

Definitely OT, but I'd assume the first spec is the number of physical
pixels availalbe in the laptop's display whereas the second is the max resolution the laptop's video output could handle if hooked up to a suitable external display if you have purchased the maximum possible video RAM. tim.

If the screen is 1024x768, it will never display anything higher than that on its on screen. It may well be able to display 2048x1536 on its external display, but you need to see how much video RAM it actually has. It's pointless to state that the hardware is capable of more when it doesn't have the RAM. |

You may want to try Radio Shack if there is one in your area. I recommend you not ask this in comp.lang.c++ as it will be completely off topic over there. Get the extra ram anyway if you can afford it, and ask about battery life. Regarding the battery, they have Acpi::Battery on cpan.org, but it's just for Linux. Imagine if something like that could support all platforms? Larry |

Thanks. You will need a 1200x635 screen to see all web formats approved by Microsoft. With such screen you can use the DVD::Play module which allows you to watch cinema-sized movies without a projector. oh yes... and do ask for the soundblaster 16 ASP. -- print <<EOF; Just a noobish Perl hacker EOF |
