In our everyday life, it's not very long ago we often take for granted computers, the internet, etc. But I think it's worth knowing a couple amazing things that our poor devices do without us ever knowing. 1. Bits, Bytes, & Size. Today people will laugh off at a 16GB phone, saying its old lol. Well here is the math, in every gigabyte(GB), there's 1024 megabytes (MB), 1024 kilobytes (KB) in a megabyte, and 1024 bytes in a kilobyte. In the lowest you have 8 bits in a byte. But why does this matter? Each bit of data is made up of eight separate floating gates. depicted as two physical transistors. Which can record themselves as either "1" or "0". This means the 16gb storage you laugh at for being small has 1,099,511,627,776 individual gates arrayed inside under that bezel. Heheh crazy engeering, we need 1TB phone right? 2. Everything you stream or play online is actually on your device . Today it's all about Netflix and Cloud computing, whateve...

These features are important and they come in handy at some point when your device is down, but ofcoarse these features don’t have many uses for the average user.

Today I will be talking about a Microsoft mobile phone (formerly Nokia Lumia devices) running Windows 8.1 OS going up. It has come to my attention; well based on a number of customers coming to our IT Shop in Area 18, on the problems most of the users of these Microsoft phones are having. Here are a few things you have to know when you are getting a brand new or second hand Microsoft mobile. "A brand-new Microsoft " before you use it make sure you have an Internet connection available and first things first Setup your Microsoft Account. This is any email account you have under microsoft (outlook, live or hotmail). It's a very important aspect on your device as it will help you have access to any microsoft product. Without this you can't install any apps on the phone. Well some might say otherwise but skipping the Microsoft account can only lead to more pressing matters in the near future when you are failing to update the phone, and yes things get tougher on this de...
