I'm looking to get a laptop for basics as surfing the Internet, watching DVD's, listening to music, but most important, for the possibility of doing light graphics and desktop publishing – Quark XPress, etc. the Lenovo G530 T4400 is on sale for under $400.- the specs seem okay, but I'm not an expert. Experience tells me that with a shelf life of 3-4 years, it's not worth investing a lot. This does have an Intel Dual Core Processor, and supposedly a 64 bit chip. My other choice would be an Asus computer from best buy, which garnished lots of good customer reviews – one really terrible one that complained about the computer's components being of poor quality and breaking down, but that was one review. It's a tad more expensive than the Lenovo. Asus does supposedly manufacture the parts for all the laptops, but surprisingly has some poor quality components, like the mouse pad, LCD display (I think), and speakers – the latter is irrelevant since even my Sony never had strong ones. Any advice would be of help. Sales end shortly.

My friend said she had a desktop publishing business 10 years ago and that she was making LOADS of money. can a desktop publishing business still be profitable nowadays?

Kevin Purdy —Windows/Mac/iOS/Android: Audiogalaxy, the surprisingly simple app for streaming your own music between computers and smartphones (surprising in how rare that is, at least) is out of beta and open for registration. Download it, activate it, and listen to your tunes anywhere.

As it did during the beta test, Audiogalaxy makes it easy on the installer. after grabbing the Windows or Mac desktop software, the app automatically finds your music and offers it up to your Audiogalaxy library—just the listings, though, and you can fine-tune that. Install the client on your iOS or Android device, sign in (through an Audiogalaxy account or Facebook), and you’ve simply got all your music available through a net connection. You can also stream from computer to computer, if you’d like. There are playlists and other doodads available, and reverse iTunes playlist syncing, if you’d like that.

Audiogalaxy is a free download for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android devices. You can read up on the history of Audiogalaxy, from its days in the same bucket as Napster to its modern, pared-down implementation, on the Audiogalaxy blog.
