A DVI splitter is used to display the same output from a DVI to go to two or more separate displays. In some video cards, such as the more modern ATI and to some extent the NVidia cards, there are already multiple DVI outputs for use with multi-monitor usage. However, for those of us with a single DVI output port, we have to invest in a DVI splitter to get the full functionality out of it.
The downside of the DVI splitter is that it doesn’t allow you to spread your desktop across multiple monitors, it simply copies the output from your original display so it can show on a separate display. It is here the video card support for hardware DVI ports trumps the DVI video splitter. It is still a very useful piece of hardware, especially for demonstrative purposes and you can always order high quality DVI Splitters online. Read the rest »

When data is stored on a computer, you think it is safe from all types of threats. However, you cannot even imagine how unsafe your data is, even if it is saved on a Mac computer – one of the most secure computers. In fact, you cannot be at ease about security of your data unless some security measures are implemented. How about taking backup of the data? Well, data backup is a great way to keep all data protected though; however, only if the backup technique you implemented is reliable. The simple and the so-called reliable way to back up all the crucial files is to copy them on an external drive in order to keep them safer. In case the original files are lost or a data disaster ruins them, you ultimately have the mac backup copies.
However, I do not think the aforementioned way to back up your crucial files is efficient. In fact, the process is pretty unsafe and time consuming. On the contrary, you should prefer using a backup tool so that you do not have to copy data manually on regular basis. Mac OS X also have inbuilt data backup mechanism, called ‘Time Machine’, which is based on incremental data backup approach. Once you configure Time Machine for backup, you are free to do your work without fussing over the backup issue.

So, you’ve got your new website all designed and it’s looking incredible. The layout is smooth and sleek, the colour scheme perfectly reflects your brand and the whole thing catches the eye in a way that is sure to impress your visitors.
A wise man once said that ‘Design in the absence of content is not design, but decoration’. In other words, no matter how good your site looks, it won’t produce the kind of results you need until you combine that design with well-written content, attractive images and other media that will not only lure in those visitors to your site, but compel them to take action when they get there, and keep them coming back for more.
The good news is that adding content to your site isn’t all that hard. If you’re using a website builder, it’s simply a case of dragging and dropping your words, pictures and media into place. If you’ve built your site using a Content Management System (CMS), it takes little more effort than clicking a few buttons, pasting and uploading.
