  • QuestionIs this laptop ideal for film students, for editing etc.

    Asked by Keni.

    • Answer Hey Keni, Due to the laptop's entry level processing capabilities, it wouldn't be necessarily ideal for film editing. This is because editing software typically demands more in the way of processing speed and memory to run its tasks quickly and simultaneously. We recommend considering a system with a higher tier processor, a Core 5 or i5, along with more memory or RAM (12 or 16GB would be great) for more optimal performance and quicker video project compilation and exporting. This can also vary if the software you wish to use for editing is AI or cloud based, as this can dictate the system requirements that would be best for your use now and in the future.

  • Questionwhat is the s mode

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hey, S mode is a more secure, lighter version of the Windows 11 Operating System that only allows the downloading of applications from the Microsoft Store. If you try to launch or install an executable or .exe file, the system prevents it. Should you desire to switch to Windows 11 Home, here is a link to a Microsoft webpage that shares how to do so: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-and-windows-11-in-s-mode-faq-851057d6-1ee9-b9e5-c30b-93baebeebc85 | Please feel free to reach out to us with any other questions!
