25 Pros And Cons Of Refurbished Laptops

Pros:

1. It's cheaper than buying a "new" one, while it has been so little used that it probably can still be considered new.

2. In most cases, as usually defined by a factory refurbished laptop provided by a brand name manufacturer, the unit is extensively tested and may have a new outside shell provided to enhance the appearance.

3. You Could Get A Great Cost / Performance Ratio.

4. A refurbished laptop benefits from a reduced environmental impact and a reduced cost.

5. Extra Testing:
Whether you buy a new refurbished computer or an older off-lease machine, the computer has usually gone through some additional testing.

6. Like-new condition:
As I mentioned above that the seller of refurbished gadgets first cleans and repairs the whole product. They test it and if there exists any problem then they resolve that. If necessary they also change the damaged parts such as screen plates, sensors, etc. They bring it to the stores only after a final testing.

7. If it had a problem at initial ship that could be reproduced immediately, then it's most likely fixed.

9. Sony provides a 90 day warranty for the refurbished products that they sell, while Dell, Lenovo, and Apple offer a one year warranty standard on their refurbished systems.

10. Refurbished laptops are readily available online or you may be able purchase one from someone you know.

11. You might be saving on a good laptop, that is worth buying.

Cons:

1. It may possess an inefficient motherboard.

2. If you are buying a refurbished laptop from the manufacturer, the support and warranty options may be less robust than they would be for a new laptop.

3. You can get older models.

4. If you want the latest and greatest model, you’ll most likely have to pay a bit more. New items tend to have the lowest return rate.

5. Its been used before.

26 Pros And Cons Of Shared Web Hosting

Pros: 1. It is Cheap. 2. It’s Manageable And Convenient. Shared hosting plans don’t require you to have any kind of technical knowledge or experience to host your website. 3. Ideal for small businesses, blogs and personal websites. 4. Easy to set up and manage websites. 5. Most shared servers have good reliability. 6. The maintenance of the server, as well as the administration of the server, will be looked after by the provider of the hosting service. 7. It Can Be Customized For Your Needs. 8. No need for an administer since user interfaces such as cPanel makes it simple to manage your own website. 10. You get multiple email accounts at your own domain as well as the option to have more than one database. 11. There is a possibility to get 24x7 customer support, maintenance support and supervision in most shared Web Hosting plans. 12. Can have more than one database. 13. You get MySQL and PHP support. Cons: 1. Hacking attacks are very common on shared servers. 2. Limited Resources: The server’s resources are all shared between the websites hosted on it. Your website is just one site among these hundreds. You can easily guess that at least a dozen of those sites are going to experience some issues or a spike in their web traffic. As and when they do, they start taking up more resources and your website will slow down or get adversely affected. 3. Cannot run any other software programs or utilities other than the ones either supported or provided by the web hosting company. 4. Poor customization flexibility 5.

16 Pros And Cons Of Google Chromecast

Pros: 1. Easy setup and operation 2. No lock-in contract. After you buy a Chromecast 2 device – you only pay for what you watch (same as Apple TV and BigPond Movies). 3. Chromecast is controlled by your phone or tablet, rather than having a conventional remote control. And I would argue this is a far superior way to do things. 4. Still great value for money. 5. It s also one of the most compact and easiest to install. 6. Google Assistant support for Home users. 7. Group Device: In case you’ve got company over and your friend insists on streaming a video not similar to yours, you can simply queue that up in the same playlist. 8. More Compatible: The Chromecast works with both Android and iOS devices. 9. Streams Netflix, YouTube, Spotify, Pandora, HBO Now and thousands of other apps and games to your TV using an Android or Apple phone or tablet, or a PC, as the controller. 10. Added 5GHz Wi-Fi support 11. It takes one HDMI port, and you ll need to plug it in for power. You don t even need an extra HDMI cord because the device has it s own HDMI hookup. 12. Faster performance 13. Tab Cast: The unique feature of beaming what’s on your tab in PC’s Google Chrome onto your TV is pretty tangible but it seems useful when viewing certain sites which support the channel’s own video player. Cons: 1. No 4K streaming 2. The ‘no remote control’ thing can be annoying when you need to find something to watch, or change the volume – and your phone is in the other room charging. 3. Gaming is weak currently 4. It also uses more internet bandwidth because you have two devices streaming simultaneously. 5. Can’t stream Prime Videos. 6. Somewhat Late Inception: Chromecast has been introduced when devices like Blue-ray players and many TVs had the option of streaming online content. So spending the money over Chromecast in case you already own a set up box is not so worth it. 7. There is no way to stream locally stored files on a phone or tablet (has to be a full Chrome browser). 8. Requires HDMI Chromecast can only use HDMI ports. Older TVs are out of luck. 9. Search could use a bit of work. 10. No local storage options: Xbox and Playstation have hard drives, Roku 3 has a microSD card slot. 11. Comparatively slow boot times for the apps. 12. Chromecast supports a small number of apps and channels compared to Roku or Apple TV. 13. Users say that mirroring large files or videos can be laggy or buggy (Google labels this feature as a beta).

12 Pro And Cons Of Short Selling Stocks

You can short it, and at least profit from the remaining downturn. Cons: 1. Short-Selling is not without risks. 2. If the stock sold short rises sharply, the lender may require additional collateral or require the short seller to buy back the stock to close out their short before your planned time frame. 3.

Liver and pancreas: Almost half of all the bladder and kidney cancers in men are caused by smoking.  16.
