HP Pavilion g6 Review

This laptop is great for its price. When searching for a new laptop, all the choices were pretty overwhelming. So many options, features, models and brands.. After some googling and asking around, I narrowed down my search to simply a computer with Intel Core i3 at thee cheapest price, with the maximum RAM possible. In the end based on availability and time issues, my best option was the HP g6.

Top 10 Android Apps you Should Have


1. Security App

My Pick: Lookout Mobile Security (Free/ $29.99 per yr)
This should be your first app to download after purchasing your new android device and I can not stress enough, how great an app this is. Not only does it provide basic security against viruses, malware & spyware lurking around on the web and in the android market (as reported). It also helps recover your phone from thieves and your forgetful self. It does this by locating your phone on a map, once you've logged onto your lookout account on the web. You can also
remotely lock & wipe all the data from your phone.

But what about when you've lost it at home and calling it is no use because your phone is on silent?or the ringer vol. too low?? A map won't help. Once again by logging onto your Lookout account you can set an alarm to go off at the highest volume possible. I've used this feature more times than I can count.

Ubuntu 11.10 was released on October 13th, and that very day I promptly received a notification from the update manager asking if I would like to update. Two hours later, the downloading and installation was complete. Once I opened it up I found that the user interface had changed completely. 
Below I've listed what really stood out:
