Both companies have been producing CPUs and other computer components for decades, with Intel being the current market leader. Key differences are that AMD offers lower-cost alternatives that provide similar performance to Intel's more expensive offerings, though Intel CPUs may have a slight advantage for gaming. The best choice depends on your specific needs and budget.
This document provides information about laptop computers. It discusses the components and history of laptops. Some key points:
- Laptops have similar components to desktops but are miniaturized into a portable form factor with a screen, keyboard, trackpad, and battery power.
- Early portable computers were large and heavy. Alan Kay first envisioned portable personal computers in 1968. The IBM 5100 in 1975 was one of the first commercially available portable computers.
- Modern laptops come in different sizes from large full-size laptops to smaller netbooks and tablets. They can also have different features like touchscreens or ruggedized designs.
- Components are smaller versions of desktop parts like CPUs,
Laptop computers have evolved significantly since their inception in the 1980s. Early laptops like the Osborne 1 had 5-inch screens and floppy disk drives. By the late 1980s, laptops were becoming popular for business users and models like the NEC UltraLite weighed only 2 kg. Today, there are several types of laptops including desktop docking stations, laptops, notebooks, subnotebooks, and tablet PCs. Key differences are in screen size, weight, and included features such as disk drives and connectivity options.
Are you willing to know complete details about Dell company? If yes, then here I have complete information about its origin, its features, and its laptop series.

Computer: Definition
A computer is a machine that can be programmed to manipulate symbols. Its principal characteristics are:
It responds to a specific set of instructions in a well-defined manner.
It can execute a prerecorded list of instructions (a program).
It can quickly store and retrieve large amounts of data.
Therefore computers can perform complex and repetitive procedures quickly, precisely and reliably. Modern computers are electronic and digital. The actual machinery (wires, transistors, and circuits) is called hardware; the instructions and data are called software. All general-purpose computers require the following hardware components:
Central processing unit (CPU): The heart of the computer, this is the component that actually executes instructions organized in programs ("software") which tell the computer what to do.
Memory (fast, expensive, short-term memory): Enables a computer to store, at least temporarily, data, programs, and intermediate results.
Mass storage device (slower, cheaper, long-term memory): Allows a computer to permanently retain large amounts of data and programs between jobs. Common mass storage devices include disk drives and tape drives.
Input device: Usually a keyboard and mouse, the input device is the conduit through which data and instructions enter a computer.
Output device: A display screen, printer, or other device that lets you see what the computer has accomplished.
In addition to these components, many others make it possible for the basic components to work together efficiently. For example, every computer requires a bus that transmits data from one part of the computer to another.
Laptop shopping is difficult for many and stressful for others. That’s crazy to me; I love computers and browsing for good deals. The different parts all combine to make different laptops for different people. Having specialized or general machines is a great industry trend that I hope continues.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
ScyllaDB is making a major architecture shift.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.

1. Buying Guide For You: Top Laptop
Brands With Models
By: Umar Farooq Chaudhry (SEO Specialist)
Are you in the market to buy a new laptop? Do you want to know about the top laptop brand
you should choose? Are you considering Dell, HP, Apple, or Lenovo? Well, today I am
going to give you a breakdown of the top laptop brands so that it’s easier for you to make an
informed decision. I will list the best model from each brand together with the Pros and
Cons for each brand. The first and most important thing is to understand for what purpose
will you use your laptop. Will you use it for gaming, business, academic work, heavy
software usage, or just for internet navigation? This information will let you decide on the
top brand and specs for your model.
What makes a laptop brand better than the other? It’s all about the different models and
different price ranges. Other main factors include a warranty, customer service, quality of
parts, battery life, availability, design, quality of display, processing power, and portability.
Also, be aware that some brands specialize in different departments like business, gaming,
general-use, music, or photography.
2. Battery:
Laptop technology has come a long way since its beginning in 1981. Battery, CPU, Display,
Hard Drive, Motherboard, and Weight can all tell a different story. Battery life is one of the
main factors that lead to laptop generation. According to Wikipedia: “the heavy lead-acid
batteries were replaced with lighter and more efficient technologies, first nickel-cadmium or
NiCd, then nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) and then Lithium-ion battery and lithium polymer”.
Sony patented the lithium-ion battery in 1991, and it has since powered just about every
consumer-oriented portable device. Based on a Forbes article, the future of laptop batteries
could be Aluminum-Ion Battery, which charges up to 60 times faster than lithium-ion cells.
CPU
The most famous and best CPU company is Intel and their latest CPU is the i9 with 18
cores and 3.7 GHz. The best PC and even the best Macbooks have the i9 processors. Just
for comparison the best AMD processor is the Ryzen 9 5900X and is also 3.7 GHz. Mac
does have its own processor line called the M1 with 8 cores and based
on Wikipedia “Apple claims that it has the world’s fastest CPU core ‘in low power silicon’
and the world’s best CPU performance per watt”. Based on the recent benchmark the i9
outperforms the M1.
LCD:
Every laptop uses LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) and has two types of light sources – LED or
CCFL. CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lamps) is a lighting technology used to project an
image on the LCD. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) also emit light but in a different way than a
CCFL screen. Modern laptops are 1080p, which means 1920 x 1080 pixels (2k) but now
there are laptop screens that are 4k (3840×2160 pixels) and even 8k (7,680 by 4,320).
The standard screen size for laptops is 13 inches but it can range from 11 inches to 17
inches. Touchscreen laptops have outstanding brightness and color fidelity, better color
accuracy, and reproduction than conventional laptops. Also, most models with this feature
have displays with higher resolution.
3. Mac has its own screen type called Retina Display and is a brand name used by Apple for
its series of IPS LCD and OLED displays that have a higher pixel density than traditional
Apple displays.
Hard Drives:
SSD or Solid State Hard Drive are slowly replacing HDD or Hard Drive Disk. SSDs are often
used in laptops because they’re non-mechanical. Solid-state drives consume less power
and have longer battery life than traditional hard drives. While lower-cost laptops still include
conventional hard drives (as one way to reduce expenses), most mid-range to high-end
PCs now come with an SSD. SSD is more efficient, faster, and less likely to fail than the
conventional HDD. But SDD is more expensive than HDD. SSD or HDD both have storage
space these days between 128 GB to 2 TB but you should aim for between 500 GB to 1 TB
for your laptop.
Motherboard:
The motherboard is more a consideration for a desktop rather than a laptop. The
motherboard can be easily replaced on a desktop but not on a laptop. For a laptop, you
should have at least 2 USB ports, 1 RJ-45 Port, SD Card Reader, HDMI Port, and 3.5mm
Audio Jack.
Laptops come in a variety of sizes and weights. They range from roughly 2 pounds to 8
pounds. Ultrabook/Chromebook (2 – 3 pounds), Ultraportable (2 – 5 lbs), Thin and Light (3
– 6 lbs), Desktop Replacement (4 lbs), and Luggables (8 lbs). It will depend on how many
times you will have to travel with your laptop. The more you will travel with it means you
should get a lighter laptop. Today’s big-screen laptops are considerably more transportable
than they were in the past. This is owing to improved technology and creative design, both
of which result in a thin body and less bezel size.
Top Laptop Brands:
Apple
4.
First, we have Apple which is known for its design, durability, and performance. Also,
Customer support, build quality, user-friendly, power, and display are the top five categories
for Apple. Apple laptops are considered a luxury because they are very expensive starting
from $999. Apple’s biggest plus point is that their OS can’t be infected by viruses and have
minimal errors. There are only 2 models of Mac Laptop i.e. Macbook Air and Macbook Pro.
MacBook Air is Apple’s thinnest, lightest laptop with a starting price of $999. MacBook Pro
is Apple’s top-of-the-line laptop that offers the best in performance and displays quality with
a $1299 starting price. Now it’s well known that Mac has better battery life than pc laptops
but few know the reason behind it. The real reason is that first, the OSX is more efficient
than windows and also because macs have larger than average batteries for their size
class.
