Hi all,
I have a request from a fellow staff member at work. Is anyone familiar with any developed visitor studies and/or tracking software?
We're trying to locate a system/database that will allow us to easily record, pull, and compile our visitor study and tracking information (# of visitors in an exhibit, # of brief/long encounters with staff, etc...).
Thanks for any and all assistance!
Best,
Thomas

Asus is a good brand, and a lower-priced alternative (I use an Asus G51 for
my main computer, still running strong after over three years). But I would
probably avoid looking at an ultrabook for a serious graphics workstation.
Most have integrated graphics and those that have dedicated graphics do not
have adequate internal cooling for serious work. They compare to the Mac
Air, not the MacBook Pros. Great for travel and running office apps, but
underpowered for design work.

Hi,
I work in Windows environment, and recently have upgraded to a new laptop,
and a new external 22" monitor(big enough for me). I work with graphics, and
use Adobe CS6.
I am using Asus laptop and monitor, and extremely happy with this setup. The
high screen resolution(1920x1080) and great color work great with graphic
work. Computer is fast, has a "instant on" start-up, 8GB RAM(upgradable to
16) and higher processing speed (Intel Core i-7, Quad Core, 2.2 GHz) (very
similar to Ultrabooks, without ultra-sleek look and price tag ;). It was
important to me to have separate memory for video: it has 2GB Ndividia video
card, and good sound. This laptop is quiet, and does not overheat at all
(Samsungs can get noisy, and Toshibas are known to overheat)
Asus HDMI monitor, as well, has great resolution, color and clarity. Screens
on the laptop and monitor match perfectly colorwise. Monitor has multiple
interfaces, which allow greater flexibility, always a plus.
Adobe CS6 works great on this set up - quick, fluid work-environment.
Absolutely no complains.
In Windows environment it is more important to have certain specifications
important for you, then a specific brand. As always, higher budget will
allow best performance. It is all about a perfect compromise. If your budget
allows, it is worth to look into Ultrabooks - the are good-looking machines
with great capacities (Asus, Samsung, Toshiba, Acer (on lower end).
Ultrabooks are kind of alternatives to Mac. Technology for LCD screens is
constantly improving, and you may need to look around for best screen for
you - as options are many. Now, touchscreen is an option, with Window 8
released. Another important thought - make sure your laptop has all required
ports - the set up varies from laptop to laptop depending on uses.
Again, I have been having good experience with Asus machines - good color,
good sound. However, my budget does not permit an Ultrabook, but i came very
close shopping around. I gave up some slick look, and my laptop is a little
heavier and bulkier - but it work great! I have had this computer for under
a year, and have little experience with Asus over a longer period off time.
Tiger direct is a good resource, and provides great service with quick
delivery. If you read tiger direct reviews it will give you a better idea
about specific items. Couple of links below, are not suggestions, but rather
- examples.
