Beating the Flu Virus

We are currently being affected by the Fall strain of Swine Flu.  The virus is in the system and we are all trying to beat the flu virus.  I am washing my hands regularly and taking a naturopathic remedy called Thymuline to ward off the virus.  At Heights, we are cleaning surfaces regularly to prevent any flu virus germs from being passed onto someone else.  Hopefully we are all doing our best to ward off the H1N1 virus.

How are you beating the H1N1 Swine Flu virus?

If you would like any more information on the flu virus, read the following website:

Write your own paragraph about the H1N1 virus and what you are doing to prevent getting the flu this season.

The Ultimate Computer

If you won the computer of your choice, which one would you get? Include 3 specific features (other than ones covered so far) that you feel would be beneficial to you. Think about quality on the screen.

I would pick the HP Pavilion DV3-1075ca Notebook PC because it has an ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics processor for intense graphics on the screen, a Super Multi 8x DVD Double Layer burner and a brilliant 13.3-inch WXGA high-definition widescreen. I feel that all of these features would perform very well with some of my high intensity games and movies.

First Week

On Wednesday, we took a tour of the equipment in C107. We discussed how the computer is like the brain, how it thinks and stores information in its memory.  Think about that information when you answer this question on your own blog.

To make your blog organized and make answering the question easier, copy the question (below in red) to your blog and answer it below the question.

Good luck!

If you were going to buy a new, fast computer, what 3 things would be most important for speed? (We talked about 2 things specifically, this week) Explain why you would pick each of the 3 things.
