There are some new tile sizes to play around with, too: a huge 4x4
square tile, and a tall thin, 2x4 rectangular tile – although not all
apps are compatible with these sizes.Swipe right to Windows Phone’s
alphabetical list of apps, meanwhile, and you’ll see another of the
changes, with a list of recently installed apps conveniently displayed
in a group at the top of the list for easy access, and a search field
permanently displayed at the top.Sixty seconds isn’t a long time, but
with an estimated internet population of 3.2 billion people, a lot can
be added to the internet in that time period.How much? Well, the team at
Domo has had a go at figuring out averages in this mind-melting
infographic, which really demonstrates that if you want to read
everything on the internet, you’re probably best off not waiting for
retirement. In fact, to have a good crack at it, you should probably
quit your job now and hunker down with the laptop.
If we say I took 15 minutes to write this piece, take off ten minutes for image sourcing, CMS funsies and a deliberately ambiguous "otherâ€, then I calculate that in an internet minute, I chipped in 40 words to sate the internet’s constant thirst for data. But then I haven't looped any Vines, upvoted any Reddit submissions or hailed any Ubers. Yet.Before you can buy the best laptop for school or college, you need to narrow down your options. There are, broadly speaking, six classes of laptop available at the moment, ranging from traditional laptops through to convertibles and hybrids and tablets that can double up.Google’s Chromebooks throw yet another choice into the mix, providing a low-cost alternative to Windows and OS X laptop PCs. Which should you go for? Well, it all depends on how you plan to use your laptops, and on the pros and cons of each individual type.
With screen sizes ranging from 14 to 17.6in, traditional laptops are still a great choice for everyday use in the classroom or at home. They generally offer the best performance for a given price; provide a large, comfortable screen and keyboard; and have the power and storage space for more advanced applications, such as video-editing, image-editing, science and engineering applications.You can even find units with dedicated graphics processors – ideal for graphically intensive applications and after-school games. Traditional laptops can also offer a full suite of connections, with multiple USB ports, HDMI outputs and audio sockets. They’re not really all that portable – pity the student who has to lug one around all day long – but otherwise they’re great all-rounders.
Pros: Versatility; good connectivity and price/performance; ample
speed and storage for more demanding applications Markdown text editors
are scattered across the App Store, but editors that work well with iOS
9, iPad, iPhone and iPad Pro are much rarer beasts. 1Writer is currently
probably the only one – and, thankfully, it’s also exceedingly good.
1Writer has many similar features to competitors such as Byword and
Ulysses. There’s a keyboard with an additional layer of buttons that let
you drop in links, bullet points and images. Images are automatically
uploaded to Dropbox, CloudApp
or Droplr, and files are synced to Dropbox or iCloud. You can even
choose to have different folders of documents on different services, if
you prefer.There’s a one-tap preview mode, which displays your fully
formatted document, while a swipe to the left brings up a built-in web
browser, so you don’t have to use iOS 9’s split-screen view.

Twitter addicts will appreciate the option to include hashtags in docs. The file browser will list all the hashtags used across your documents, letting you jump to any document including that term. You can create to-dos within a document and export all of them to Reminders, which is incredibly useful for anyone taking notes in a meeting.The killer feature for 1Writer is its automation capabilities. Unlike competitors such as Editorial, which uses Python as a way of building extensions, 1Writer uses JavaScript. This has pros and cons. Obviously, JavaScript is extremely well known, with a broad developer base. On the other hand, it’s not as powerful as Python. For example, it can’t access the native Twitter features in iOS, which is possible with Python.
The killer feature for 1Writer is its automation capabilities ... it's capable of doing amazing things
That said, it’s still capable of doing amazing things. Check out the
1Writer Actions directory and you’ll find Actions that automate complex
tasks such as posting to Medium, sending to Pastebin, as well as simpler
stuff such as finding and replacing text. The drawback of Actions is
there’s no easy way to access them.All Actions live under a single modal
pop-up, and you can’t add them to a quick-access option on the
keyboard. This means they’re less useful for jobs you’re likely to
perform frequently.
1Writer is a well-thought-out and powerful text editor, which will only get more powerful as users expand its capabilities with Actions. It’s not perfect, but if you want a text editor that makes the most of iOS 9, it’s your best choice.When it comes to laptops, students have specific requirements. They need a model that’s lightweight and portable, but also one that’s built for life at school or college. They need something with the power to handle classroom applications, but with the battery life to last the whole working day. They might benefit from touchscreens or convertible form factors, but a comfortable keyboard is a must for coursework. Most of all, students need all these features at an affordable price.
The good news is that it isn’t necessary to pay out a fortune for a decent student laptop. Appropriate models are available for well below £500, and some as low as £200 if you’re prepared to compromise on performance, storage capacity or screen size. What’s more, many manufacturers offer discounts for schools, colleges or even individual students, helping you to drive down the purchase cost.The key is knowing where to save money and where cost-cutting might bite later on. As far as the core specification is concerned, look for a laptop with the power to handle mainstream classroom tasks but that offers a degree of flexibility to cope with future applications. Entry-level Intel Celeron and Pentium processors, based on Intel’s Atom technology, will be fine for simple Office and web-based applications, but they might not have the power for more demanding work.
For the sake of future-proofing, look to the higher-end dual-core Celeron and Pentium processors (those without an N in front of the model number) or – better still – laptops with Intel Core i3 and i5 processors.APUs or laptops with a dedicated graphics chip will give you a smoother ride in 3D applicationsAMD A8 and A10 APUs are also a good option. APUs, or accelerated processing units, combine the processor and graphics accelerator on a single chip. APUs or laptops with a dedicated graphics chip will give you a smoother ride in 3D applications, including games, and while student laptops aren’t meant to be gaming machines, the more versatile your laptop, the better. Similarly, while a mere 2GB of RAM will run Windows 8 or Windows 10 satisfactorily, 4GB will keep it running smoother when multiple applications are open simultaneously.
