As technology advances, and now functions on a laptop more and more dazzling variety of new equipment so that consumers do not know how to select, only the blind pursuit of more, newer and better. It is undeniable that the function laptop does better, but do not forget the cost of these features are all blindly seek more novelty will not only allow you to spend more money wasted, but also counter to bring you much inconvenience. Do you know which notebook is the most useless feature? Do you know what equipment is dispensable do? See the following list of the most useless feature.
The first: There is no saddle horse - Express Card
Express Card interface is nowadays the most popular form of high-tech equipment, has been a lot of dealers blowing incredible, it seems that there is no Express Card will simply not be called a new generation of notebooks.Dell inspiron 1300 battery Express Card, with the SONOMA system and the 915-series chipsets with the introduction of a new generation of interfaces, this interface also supports USB 2.0 and PCI EXPRESS interface, that point can be understood as the popular PCI EXPRESS version of the PCMCIA interface can also be understood as a the expansion of PCI EXPRESS bus. Compared with the previous PCMCIA interface, Express Card interface, with a smaller, faster transmission speeds, lower power, more suitable for mobile systems, and many other advantages.
The interface is so important why behind the top of it useless feature? The fundamental reason is fundamentally to not Express Card devices available, so it seems Express Card interface is simply a bust. Second, the current Express Card standard is continually revised in the future a large number of popular Express Card device is compatible with current standards, whether they can still a question mark, calling such the current Express Card interface, just over the program only. In addition even if the Express Card large-scale market, starting in 2012 the price will definitely not be cheap, wait until we can afford to Express Card can be used may be set when the laptop is eliminated. Even worse, because the PCMCIA and Express Card's heads are not small, so very few notebooks at the same time with two kinds of excuses, ranging from number of new models using only a laptop Express Card interface, PCMCIA interface, with no reservation, causing the user simply can not use the GPRS Modem , external wireless card, external drives and other devices.
Express Card will be gradually replaced PCIMCIA interface is an indisputable fact, but the present situation also have at least one or two years of the generalization phase. Xiao Bian recommend that you do not have to consider whether the machine has a Express Card interface, the anti to the need to avoid those that only Express Card interface, PCMCIA interface, not models.
The second: It seems cool! With them on the stupid - Fingerprint Recognition
Because of fingerprint identification has not forged, the only, non-cracking and other properties, very suitable for doing encryption, so many pairs of high security degree of sensitive business notebooks are designed to the fingerprint identification system, as long as a designated finger can be achieved boot , landing systems, and even secret file encryption solution instead of a password, and many other features. This function is very convenient and cool looking, even if the built-in fingerprint recognition laptop than other models with the configuration of your lot, but still a lot of their followers, and even many consumers hesitate to spend a few thousand dollars more to buy with a fingerprint models.
You are the FBI do? You are the staff of the National Security Agency? If you do not have to use encryption system to call a special worker, then there is no need to use the fingerprint identification system. Because the current fingerprint identification technology is also less reliable, so most of the use of fingerprint encryption software also has a password feature, which is not the confidentiality of the password than the traditional approach much higher, at best, that is, not have to go back passwords. Another notebook fingerprint recognition rate is very low, 10 designated nine phenomena have occurred, however, there is no security to speak of, so most users rarely used after the early adopters. Xiao Bian has encountered a consumer because it is too believe that fingerprint identification, it did not set a password when you write it down, the results of the machine turn against a loss caused by large amounts of data, customer service failed to save back to the data.
Fingerprint
There is no security, no sense of security, have been shut out at any time, in fact, is still only a fingerprint is used to Baiku equipment, not like the movie to use as convenience and safety. Although the effect of this system very well, but the price does not come cheap, the hardware support for at least 200 yuan, is simply to spend money trouble.
Third: no avail - Digital TV Receiver
Digital TV is a very hot topic nowadays can look at digital television laptop naturally become the focus of many domestic consumers, especially in the World Cup can be said to be the next westerly red purple. Be able to watch TV for the notebook(laptop battery ) does bring a lot of fun to your life, but be sure to distinguish between purchase notebook support digital TV or ordinary TV, because the digital TV function of your notebook is simply a non-essential equipment .
Digital TV Receiver
Notebook with digital TV reception is good, but the problem is simply not in the current digital TV to watch digital TV receiver module is tantamount to a high-tech furnishings. Now the domestic digital television channels is still in the experimental stage, CCTV and a number of large cities only a few pilot channel, the basic no formal program to watch, but do not expect to use this ballpark to see movies. Second, digital TV format war is not over, there might even be within a year or two were identified for it, so now notebooks digital TV receiver module will later be used, or a problem. In addition to support digital TV does not mean that is compatible with analog TV, the majority of support for digital TV simply not compatible with current notebook analog TV, it is not normal to watch regular TV programs, do not be confused with the concept of business.
Digital TV reception fees
Present notebook(Dell inspiron 1520 battery) to watch digital TV is only a dream for the ordinary consumers do not need to order may never be a dream to spend the extra silver. Finally once again remind you that the notebook can see digital television does not necessarily watching analog TV, two TV features and standard interfaces are not the same. If you want to watch TV in a notebook, it is honestly the purchase of products that support both analog television bar.
Fourth place: flashy - Operating System
The importance of the operating system Xiaobian not waste any more words here, there is no operating system at best, even if a high-end laptop desk lamp. Because of genuine operating systems are not cheap, so laptop is pre-installed genuine operating system is the focus of many consumers to consider more cost several hundred dollars you can buy a thousand dollars the value of genuine operating systems are very cost-effective. In fact this laptop pre-installed with the operating system is not as useful as propaganda, most operating systems have become randomly bring furnishings or simply disappear completely from the laptop.
Does anyone stood genuine operating systems do not have to use pirated? The question seems difficult to understand, but in reality it is. First
Notebook PCs are pre-installed operating system, but does not provide a complete operating system CD-ROM, provides a generous point of recovery discs or, worse, simply to be a hidden partition on your hard drive the system image file on the inside. This is a factory pre-installed operating system customized specifically for each model, its stability is very good nature, but because also a lot of software pre-installed so the system is very slow, IBM R51 pre-installed XP system starts rolling article went so far as to be referred to for more than 20 laps to see the XP interface to speed up its use can be imagined. Another notebook factory is only one partition the hard disk, if they can easily modify the partition results in hidden partition is lost, a few hundred dollars bought the operating system it is so inexplicable disappeared.
If you are an individual user, then you do not need to be too concerned about the operating system problems, at least within a few years is also "free" to use Microsoft's operating system. Judging from the current situation in the domestic software copyright point of view, this pre-installed operating system only for business users some value, because business users have been unable to re-use the free operating system.
Fifth place: convenient but not easy to use - no boot CD Player
Do not start listening to CD feature allows the notebook turned off while playing CD discs, HP's QuickPlay, which do not start listening to CD an upgraded version of the system will not start even in the case of playing VCD, DVD video discs, this feature quick and easy, has become a Notebook ability to measure whether they have an important criterion for entertainment. In fact, do not start listening to CD function is also dispensable for the design, there is no need to use this feature to measure the laptop good or bad.
Play CD does not boot
This feature is ease and convenience of use is unquestionable, but this feature can be use to very few people. In today's MP3 is king of this era have been rarely used CD disc, and a few use the CD disc of music fans will not be satisfied with the sound quality notebooks, resulting in less than people who can use, can be used to the people will not use. If you use this feature plays MP3, VCD, DVD and other media formats, and that the advantages of its low power consumption and simple does not exist, and play into the system, compared with no difference, and even video playback is not as good in the system.
Play CD does not boot
Do not start listening to CD function is dispensable, it seems convenient but practicality is not high and therefore there is no need to spend more for this feature silver, but there is no need to use this function to measure the laptop good or bad.
Sixth: Only a small number of people belonging to the special equipment - IEEE 1394
Many consumers think that the latest IEEE 1394 is a digital device interface, in fact, as early as 1987, Apple released the first complete specifications, formally established in 1995, the standard IEEE 1394. This interface works with the USB is almost, but the speed should be much faster than the USB port, but also occupy very little system overhead, but unfortunately it is the realization of higher cost, so they should only be used DV that require high-speed, real-time service. Recently, DV, etc. With the 1394 adoption of the popularity of digital devices, more and more I began to built-in notebook this interface, as if there is no lack of IEEE1394 interface is called scalability.
IEEE 1394
In fact, for ordinary consumers, there is no need in a notebook built-in IEEE1394 interface. This interface is currently mainly used in digital cameras, so if you do not have digital cameras, it is almost not used to this interface opportunities. Also among the USB2.0 and IEEE 1394 have been difficult to decide who will win the war, most of the new camera models are two kinds of both USB2.0 and IEEE1394 interface, so even if you plan to buy a video camera(laptop batteries) may not necessarily be used IEEE1394 interface.
IEEE 1394
In addition to the digital enthusiasts, other ordinary users there is no need to consider this interface, let alone the extra cost for this interface, silver, which is only a small number of people belonging to the hardware equipment.
Seventh place: Built-in 300 yuan, 50 yuan plug-in - Bluetooth
Bluetooth is no longer what the high-tech terminology, there are now a growing number of mobile phones and Pocket PC devices using this for short-range communication radio technology. Bluetooth work in the 2.4GHz band, the bandwidth of 1Mb / s, can include mobile phones, PDA, wireless headsets, laptop computers and related peripherals, and many other wireless information exchange between devices, electronic devices to each other via Bluetooth and link, eliminating the need for conventional wires. Laptop built-in Bluetooth technology is a development direction, but in fact this device is also a trivial thing.
Bluetooth devices currently used is only limited to PDA, cell phone, so you if there is no support for Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones and PDA that will never use Bluetooth devices, Moreover, even if your phone supports Bluetooth probably do not need to use every day, so there is no notebook built-in necessary.(Dell inspiron 1525 battery) Also, to add a built-in Bluetooth laptops at least have to spend 200-300 yuan, while the market in the cheapest USB Bluetooth device as long as 50 yuan or so, so I chose a very low cost-effective built-in Bluetooth.
If you are a digital enthusiasts, and that built-in Bluetooth functionality will bring you a lot of convenience. However, if you do not for digital equipment, fever, and that there is no need to spend these few hundred dollars more in the future will need to purchase a USB Bluetooth on it.
