Anew client, Mr. Green, has approached you to offer general IT consultation to his small business. Mr. Green’s business is currently not networked. However, his business is growing substantially and he is thinking about becoming networked. His IT infrastructure, as small as it is, consists of several stand-alone machines installed with Windows 7 Home Premium. Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you analyze and solve the following issues: Mr. Green recommends installing the Windows 7 Ultimate version since he believes all the networking features he requires can be provided by this “ultimate” version. Mr. Green’s stand-alone machines consist of 2 GHz processors, 4 GBs of system memory, and approximately 350 GBs of free hard drive space. At the same time, Mr. Green is concerned that this potential new edition may not be the correct one for his needs although he wants to experiment with it and be able to resort back to the previous version, if possible. 1. List and explain the concerns about Windows 7 Ultimate’s capabilities that Mr. Green should be aware of currently. 2.

...the campus. The discussion starts off with a background and purpose of the research project, and then it explains the research focus and gives a brief overview of the project‘s approach towards a literature research. History of Green computing In 1992, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency launched Energy Star, a voluntary labeling program which is designed to promote and recognize energy-efficiency in monitors, climate control equipment, and other technologies. This resulted in the widespread adoption of sleep mode among consumer electronics. The term "green computing" was probably coined shortly after the Energy Star program began; For a PC disposal, it is necessary to know everything there is to know in order to be involved in green computing. Basically, the whole green aspect came about quite a few years back when the news that the environment was not a renewable resource really hit home and people started realizing that they had to do their part to protect the environment. Basically, the efficient use of computers and computing is what green computing is all about. The triple bottom line is what is important when it comes to anything green and the same goes for green computing. This considers social...

...Green There has been big talk about saving earth or going green, over the past few years. The main purpose is to preserve earth’s natural raw resources because we are running out of natural resources including gas, oil, and coal. There are energy efficient products being promoted such as battery operated cars, appliances, light bulbs and even homes. The problem is many energy efficient items are so expensive, that not everyone can afford to pay for an energy efficient car or an energy efficient home, but there are still many ways to help save the planet earth. Think about what is in that trash bag before you throw it away. Saving the trash could possibly mean saving the earth. If consumers could do something with the trash they discard the manufacturer would not have to use raw natural materials to make products. The average person generates four pounds of trash per day (Brown Par 2 ). If consumers could recycle some of that trash they could reduce landfills. Landfills are a place where your discarded trash goes; it is then buried. Not only are landfills not good for the environment, but they are not good for the wildlife. Another good reason for recycling is it saves energy because the big companies do not have to burn as much energy to produce something new. By using recycled materials it cuts down on the energy consumption as well as the cost for consumers. That means more money in everyone’s pocket. Consumers can also save a lot money recycling because instead of buying...

...Evaluation of UHV's Green Movement A company shows more than just care for the bottom line when they employ a “go green” initiative. More and more companies are moving towards sustainability practices, and just a few examples from the video include employee volunteer initiatives for earth week, employee education seminars and environmental work days to replace holiday parties. Innovations were also mentioned, specifically a cost conscious invention by one company to initialize a company wide database of office supplies, that way departments can pull from one another instead of ordering a supply that was already available within the company. UHV has joined the ranks of companies around the globe who are making a conscious effort to “go green.” From UHV’s green website, you can gain a clear understanding of the goals of the initiative. There is always room for improvement in any initiative, but UHV is on the right track. The areas of most impact will probably be the administrative practices, simply because saving electricity is probably the area in which the majority of companies need the most conservation effort. UHV will realize a significant cost savings by employing all the techniques mentioned. Just one example would be turning off lights and computers when not in use will make a significant impact on the electric ...

I took it upon myself to solve the issue. I went to the router and pressed all the buttons on the router, but it seemed that I made the problem worse. Then I unplugged and plugged the power to the device thinking it would reset the problems. To my surprise, the red light next to the globe turned green. From that experience, I noticed I had a valuable trait of dealing with technology....

...IT Consultation for MR. Green Mr. Green wants to upgrade Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate. I have researched this upgrade and will be describing concerns and options so Mr. Green’s business will be more efficient and capable of expanding in time. From the information you gave me Mr. Green, it appears that your stand-alone machines are capable of running Windows 7 Ultimate. It requires 1GHz processor, 2GB RAM (for 64 bit) and 20GB available disk space. My concern for the future would be to look into getting more RAM as you install different programs and have many applications running at the same time. Attached are graphs that will take you step by step in preparing to upgrade as well as the steps for using Windows Anytime Upgrade. Running the upgrade advisor will ensure that your systems are capable and compatible of running Windows 7 Ultimate. It will check your hardware, search for updates, check your applications, disk space, ensures computer functionality, also performs a full system backup and allows you to purchase Windows 7. The next graph walks you through Windows Anytime Upgrade which I believe will work for you since your systems already have windows 7 on them. The graph has you click start, control panel, system and security tab, and Windows Anytime Upgrade. When you get to that window, just click on go online to choose the windows 7 edition you would like and then click the buy button. It will then walk you through the install process. You may have...

...There is a growing need for businesses to “go green” in more comprehensive ways. Many businesses have made changes like recycling paper and toner cartridges, cutting back on air conditioning, heating, and lighting, and creating car and van pools for employees. But there is much, much more that businesses can do. Making a commitment to preserving the environment and reducing landfill waste is not only the right thing to do, it is also good business. Recycling services can cost less than traditional waste collection services. Many customers and clients seek out “green” businesses and use environmental-friendliness as criteria for selecting their business partners. Research shows that employee retention and recruitment can also benefit through cost savings and good will. For many employees, working for a “green” company is a high priority in choosing a job. Increasing recycling also strengthens the economy by creating jobs in collection and reuse industries. Government contractors should be particularly eager to participate in green initiatives: Contractors will be expected to consider environmental impact when bidding on federal contracts. There are many common items that businesses should consider recycling. Older model televisions contain lead and other heavy metals, along with compounds that threaten the environment. Rubber tires and tubes are traditionally difficult to dispose of, but with recycling can be remade into entirely new products. The metals and plastics in audio...

...us the necessary basic knowledge about the types of monitors. Most desktop computer systems sold now by default come with LCD monitors. But if you are one of those who want to know the difference between CRT and LCD monitors, these texts are immense help. To start with, a CRT monitor in general is nothing more than cathode ray tube with millions of diminutive red, green and blue phosphor dots. The working principle of CRT monitor is sustained by the theory of electron beam traveling across the tube to the area of deflection system where the beam is given direction to a specific pixel on the screen. The first CRT monitor has been invented in 1970s. However, monitor was greenish and the only possible sphere of usability was text-based computers. On the other hand, it was just a start. In 1987 when the VGA display system was invented and CRT monitors took a step into the astonishing success and recognition. As years went by, new technology of monitors was invented. These were an active and passive matrix display technology using monitors. First of all, these monitors were different from CRT because of the new thin film transistor technology. It was that kind of technology where particular row was switched on and a charge was generated and sent down the column. As result, the pixel appeared on the monitor at the intersect place of the row and the column. Moreover, it was a revolution in making computers portable. To sum up, it is essential to mention that technologies are not...

...QUESTION 1 Peer-to-peer also known as decentralized network A peer-to-peer network is quite small, simple and less expensive network structure that connects about 10 computers. All computers have both client and server functionality. This means all can send and receive at the same time. There is no central server on this type of a network. All computers on this network have the same capability to use the resources such as hardware, software and data files available on the network. This network is insecure in such a way that any files from any computer can be accessible by unauthorized people. Administration is hard compared to client server where a server is a central computer to control all clients on the network. On Bittorrent, peer-to-peer...

...flame test on un unknown substance, gather an emission spectrum from it, and determine which elements are in the unknown substance. INTRODUCTION The smallest particle of an element that exist and still have the properties of the element called “Atom”. Electrons specify the chemical properties of atoms. Shells or energy level is the electrons in an atom that exist in layers. Usually, atoms do not eject radiation but there are ways of causing radiation to be ejected. The simplest thing to do is to heat the atoms. When an atom is heated, It soak up the energy causing its electron to get excited to positions of higher potential energy father away from the nucleus. At this point, the atom becomes shaky. Then, when an electron goes back to its ground level, it radiates the absorbed energy in the sort of light, which has a characteristic wavelength. This is the foundation of the flame test used to recognize the element. The quantity of energy absorbed will account for the presence of a spectral line. The emission spectrum may be used to observe the...

...has become so advance at such a rate that many devices become trash even after a short time. This is due to the fact that many companies are constantly coming up with new electronic ideals faster than they can create one product they usually have another one on the market. Many electronic devices that we use on an everyday basis become trash after a few years of use by the customer. The term “old electronic” in fact is one of the reasons that contribute to e-waste such as DVD players being replaced by Blu-ray players and VCRs being replaced by the DVD players (Denga, 2008). E-waste is created from devices that may be electronic such as TV’s, PDA’s, CD players fax machines and computers (Antonitis, 2011). Many of these items are being thrown away on a daily basis. The obsolete computers and many other electronic devices are filling landfills across United States. Some of the electronic that is thrown away have harmful material such as cadmium, beryllium, mercury and lead. In the United States alone, more than 100 million are thrown away with only 20% of the electronics being recycled properly. The EPA has estimated that 60 million metric tons enter the land field yearly (Antonitis, 2011). According to the electronics...
