Chromebook
I recently purchase a Chromebook and to broaden my computer skills and this is what I discovered. As for the price, platform stability, streaming and performance it's worth every penny. In a world were Microsoft rules you just need to find the right extensions and it can work, but nothings perfect.
If everyone would be open minded and take a challenge to new ideas, Chromebook and other OS will succeed eventually. The only problem is that most people are stuck in the Windows world and it's hard to change bad habits.
Windows was never an effect complete operating system, and this can be seen with it's ongoing update fixes. The only reason why this became a Windows world was because of great marketing tactics and the monopoly power it played when it became the big player on the block. And like everything else it controlled on what platform the world was going to follow.
Now-a-days Windows ideas and models are failing short and it's only a matter of time before we say goodbye to the big giant, but in doing so there has to be a replacement. The only way technology can move forward is by creating new ideas. Chromebook is nothing new but the Linux kernal it's been around for a while. The only problem that exist is having developers make software for the OS.
Chromebook is a sweet platform with a battery life that beats all it's competitor. In a mobile world where everyone is going portable, this is going to be a laptop of choice for the future. Don't be surprised when this OS blows up, now it's the time to upgrade your portable devices.

Vulnerabilty Answers
Computers have vulnerability issues and there always is a question on what is it. We can write pages on vulnerabilities and the best answer to it is by saying that it's a software that wasn't finalized when it was produced. Because many software developers have a time frame in mind on getting their software out to the market. Developers don't sit down carefully and review their programming codes. This is why there software's have security flaws and vulnerability always exist in programming. The chances that you'll never find a flaw in a software is slim and for some companies it's just a matter of doing business. So make the best out of any software because there will always be vulnerabilities.

- Go to Network and Sharing Center from the control panel.
- Click change adaptor settings on the left hand side.
- Right click the network adaptor (if you have more than one you may need to do this on all of them).
- Select "Properties" from the list.
- In the "This connection uses the following items:" select "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks".
- Click the "Uninstall" button.
- Click "Yes" when the conformation box appears and wait for it to uninstall ("File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks" will disappear from the "This connection uses the following items:" box once uninstalled).
- Click the "Install" button.
- Select "Service" from the "Click the type of network feature you want to install:" box.
- Select "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks" from the "Network Service" box.

Fake Tech Support Scam
The Fake Tech Support Scan is on high alert lately. Not only are they conning the elderly but anyone who they can convince them to buy into their scam.
The scam starts pretty simple with someone calling you for support claiming to be Microsoft employees. In situations where things don't make sense your best option is to do nothing and get a return number or tell them to send you the information by mail. If they are a legit company they will be able to mail you something or you can easily reach them. Anything else would be questionable. But buyer beware because it's guys like these that are giving real computer technician's a bad name.
