Okay, so you have just purchased you Sharepoint hosting service and you are in a hurry to get started. If you ask me, the first step in any project is setting up the look and feel of the look and feel. Now with SP, they have made it very simple to adjust your site to fancy your eye.

In adjusting the look and feel of your site, you will want to start with the "site theme".

What is The Site Theme?

Essentially, the site theme is the color of your site. I chose the color by examining the color of my company logo and determining which Sharepoint site theme would best match.

So how do you do this?

Excellent question! Let me put it in a step by step format.

1. Log in to you SP account. Be sure that your log in has admin rights.
2. Once you have logged into your account, you will want to take your attention to the top right hand corner of your page. You will notice a tab that is titled "Site Actions". Click on that tab.
3. Next, a drop down menu will appear. In that drop down menu there will be 3 options to choose from. Select the last tab, entitled "Site Settings".
4. After you have selected "Site Settings", you will be taken to a page that has a horizontal menu consisting of 4 headings. Direct your attention to the "Look and Feel" heading. Under that heading, there will be 7 options to choose from. The 3rd one from the top will say "site theme". Click it.
5. The following screen will be a box that gives you the name of each Sharepoint site theme. You can see what each individual theme looks like by simply selecting the different names.
6. Once you decide on a theme, go to the bottom right hand corner of your page and select the "Apply" tab.

And that's it! Your new site theme is active.

While reseller hosting can prove to be a decent source of online income, the business could entail a few unforeseen downsides. A few tips and guidelines would help you make the most of your reseller hosting business and with the right expertise and knowledge; your reseller account would soon be generating good income for you.

It is important to establish trust with the hosting company from whom you wish to buy the reseller-hosting package. In order to achieve this, the potential reseller is required to perform an in-depth research on the company, its services, its support system, pricing structures, features and tools offered, infrastructure of the data center, its reliability, uptime, credibility and much more.

Among the aforesaid, uptime is something that needs prime consideration. You do not want to be dealing with a hosting company that cannot offer a decent uptime of at least 99%. Worst would be that in case of a technical error or unexpected downtime, the customer r reseller is unable to reach the company. This would just spell ruin for both the parent host as well as the reseller business. Therefore, you need to be associated with a company that offers maximum uptime and highly professional hosting services and products.

A good approach would be talk to other users as well as resellers through online discussion forums, blogs and read their testimonials and reviews. In fact, there are a few web hosting directories that offer unbiased reviews and ratings on web hosting companies. You need to be however wary about the reliability of these reviews and ensure that these reviews are received through an unbiased source. The best way to ascertain this is to focus on reviews that highlight both the negatives as well as positives of the company's services and products. Reviews that equate to promotional content are in all probability unreliable.

Another aspect is the pricing structure for the various hosting packages. The reseller needs to analyze whether these prices are well aligned with the hosting market or is the service unreasonably priced? The pricing would of course be dependent on the quality of services offered. The parent host should be equipped with advanced software and hardware in order to deliver high-end hosting services to its customers. This way, the reseller can be assured that he/she is dealing with a company that utilizes advanced web hosting technology.

On the flip side, if the reseller ends up being associated with a company that does not deliver quality services, the business would only decline and perhaps eventually lose out in the competitive hosting industry. It is precisely because the hosting industry is getting fiercely competitive that is becomes all the more important to sign up with a company that delivers high quality services and hosting products.

Most important is the type and quality of customer support offered. A reliable and professional host would offer 24/7 support and this aspect is never overlooked by a discerning reseller or potential customer.

There have been many heated debates amongst many PC enthusiasts about which CPU in cores is better. Some say a dual core is better because the cores are clocked higher than a similar price quad. Others say a quad is better because it has twice the amount of cores as a dual core. So which one is the better product?

Back when single core CPU's dominated the market, they key to processing information quicker was determined by the FSB and maxing out the clock speed. Eventually, both Intel and AMD hit the limitation of single threaded processing. To make logical sense of why we have more than one core nowadays is because programs are making use of pipelining, a way of processing instructions faster. Instead of waiting for one thread to finish, pipelining allows the next thread to start once the first step in the machine cycles has been completed.

Imagine a dual core processing four instructions; it would need to complete the first two threads before it could start the next two. But if we use a quad core to process it, it could start all four threads at the same time.

Quad core is better then, right? In theory, yes, but only if programs are optimized for multi-threading, which at the moment there aren't a lot. This is where dual core tends to have an edge over quad. It processes a thread at a faster rate just like the single core CPU's did.
So if your gamer and need the best value/ performance ratio, the dual core is your winner because there aren't many games that utilize four cores. However, if you're a video editor, or use CAD or any other design/editing tool, chances are they have been optimized for pipelining, in which quad cores process well. But what if your someone that surfs the net, plays the occasional game and edits photos? This is where most people are at, and generally speaking, if you're not a power user, a dual core should suffice. But if you're running Adobe Photoshop, MSN messenger, have a web browser open and are maybe encoding a video file all at the same time, a quad core would be the best choice. Why? Because running four different programs at once would allow each core of the CPU to be utilized and not bring the computer speed to a crawl.

As a result, to say which one is better is a hard call for it to be universal, rather the best one is dependent on your own needs.
