Question by joelius24: What is the best site for ordering computer hardware online in Europe? Specifically in Berlin, Germany?
I am looking for a DVD burner for a laptop, and they don’t seem to sell them in stores here. Newegg only ships to the U.S., and Ebay doesn’t have the security to return it if it doesn’t work.

Before you give up hope I suggest you try Saturn or MediaMarkt. They are sort of like the “Best Buy” of Germany. 
(Actual stores, not web sites.) I have a lot fo friends who live in Germany and order DVDs and the such from Amazon.com. I just did a quick search there and they sell DVD burners. So that may also be a viable option for you. I believe they ship globally.

Question by nutella-gal: What notebook do you use for CAD, specifically Solidworks ?
I’m trying to find a decent and reliable, yet affordable notebook that can be used for CAD (specifically) Solidworks. If you’re doing CAD, what is your notebook and how do you like it? And does it really need 3.0 GHz processor?
Thank you for your help.

Can you use regular printer paper in a laser printer, or do you specifically have to use laser printer paper?
Posted by postmaster in - Hardware Answer on July 15, 2010
I notice that some printer paper is called laser printer paper, and other kinds are just called printer paper. Do you have to use the kind that specifically says it’s for laser printers, or can just regular printer paper be used? What’s the difference?
I am looking to tap the brain of a computer hardware person specifically the power supply area.?
Posted by postmaster in - Hardware Answer on July 7, 2010
As it seems to happen to all equipment, I powered off my computer system last night before bed. I woke up this morning and of course went directly to my computer and turn it on. It did not power up. I tried several times with the hope of a sucess but no power up. It is a Sony Vaio RB50 – 2005 model. The only thing I did notice was that there is a green LED indicator on the back of the power supply. It usally stayed on during regular working time. In my case, it just continues to blink now.
Is there any hope for this system? Please don’t tell me the power supply is shot. What is the purpose of the green indicator?
