10 Ways To Work Smarter

Do you need help to get the most out of your office technology? ShopUK.co.uk are here to help with these useful tips...

1) For your eyes only
Make sure that your important data files are secure. Purchasing a notebook computer with fingerprint recognition makes sure that your information stays safe. Our suggestion is the ASUS U6 ultra portable notebook with built-in fingerprint recognition.

2) Go green
Using one device instead of five will save on energy as well as desk space. It will also cut down on any connection issues that can raise their heads with multiple products.

3) Get personal
Use Windows Sidebar and its gadgets for instant access to your calendar, train schedules, weather reports and more.

4) Go wireless
Plug-and-play routers are easy to use, give you instant access to the internet and cut back on wires. Adding a wireless multifunction printer - such as the Brother MFC6490CW - to your setup will give you the ability to move round your office while staying connected.

5) Save your battery
By turning off notebook features when you are not using them you can preserve the life of your battery. For example, shutting down your wireless card when you are not on the internet can make a big difference. Cutting down on battery usage means that you will not have to charge your notebook as often, therefore reducing your power usage.

6) Easy access
Microsoft Windows Vista hotkeys offer simple one-touch access to your favourite applications, websites and folders. The time saved will mean that you will be more efficient and make some regular tasks quicker and easier.

7) Stay connected
Make sure that you have the right adaptors when you travel. Travel adaptors do not just cover the size and shape of plug sockets but also the differing voltage standards from country to country. This variation can affect your electrical products so make sure that you are prepared and check the voltage standard for the country you are travelling to.

8) Peace of mind
Knowing that your electrical goods are covered by warranties can be a very important thing when you have several products which are vital to your work setup. For example, all ASUS notebooks include a two year global warranty. Other manufacturers offer optional extended warranties and ShopUK.co.uk also offer three year warranties on many of the products we sell.

9) A better view
Adding a second monitor to your existing desktop or notebook computer doubles the amount of space you have on your computers desktop making it easier to work with multiple documents and applications.

10) Power saver
A laptop combined with a desktop display offers all the features of a desktop PC with the convenience of portability, but consumes a fraction of the total power.
