Notebook para estudiar

sí, hace totalmente la diferencia, pero yo te diría que te enfoques en comprar un notebook para oficina, es decir, ligero, con una pantalla hecha para leer documentos, es mucho más cómodo trabajar en una pantalla 3:2, se siente más grande, espacioso y aprovechado el espacio, que en una pantalla +16:

New Surface devices leaked: Surface Pro 12 and Surface Laptop 13

Even Adobe is getting better. I use Photoshop (native) and Lightroom Classic (x64 emulated) and both work really well on my SL7. LrC is actually faster on my laptop than on my wife's SL5 (Intel 12th gen). Currently Illustrator, inDesign, and Premiere Pro are all in "beta" on Arm (x64 emulated). Have

Surface Laptop 5: Replace Alcantara with Metal?

I've done it on a 13" SL3. It was a piece of cake. Take off the feet (you'll likely need to replace these--Microsoft sells them, or you can use just about any stick-on feet), unscrew the four mounting screws hidden under the feet, then gently remove the keyboard (which is held on by magnets). A guit

What laptop to buy?

If you’re used to a MacBook Air and want something equally thin/light with great battery life (but need Windows), a few solid options: Dell XPS 13 / XPS 13 Plus Super portable, sharp display, great build quality. One of the closest “Windows equivalents” to a MacBook Air. 2. Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon

We have used Microsoft Surface Laptops since 2020 (SL3) and added the Surface Pro 8 when introduced. We are now using Surface Laptop for Business 7th Edition and Surface Pro for Business. We've also added MacBook Air's since the M2 appeared. Surface support and durability have been exceptional even

Seafile Drive Client supported by Prism/Surface Pro 11 Snapdragon?

Out of curiosity I just fired up a Windows Sandbox session on my SL7 and downloaded both the Seafile and Seadrive clients to it. Both installed and ran just fine. I don't have a Seafile server to connect to, so I can't know if you would encounter any issues during use (I doubt it), but the client so
