Fwiw, I completely agree with you on Win 8 v 7. I genuinely like 7, liked XP (and 2000, and NT), and find 8 more or less unusable. I had to set up a Windows domain on a Server 2012 (the server version of Win8) and it was a truly terrible experience. I never did get used to it. I just got a new laptop with 10 on it, and I decided to give it a try before reverting it back to 7. My experience so far is that by toning it down and turning off some bells and whistles, it feels a lot like 7. Everything is comfortable thus far. I also set up a Surface Pro with 10 for my dad over Xmas, and I found the tablet stuff to be fine. But, this is coming from someone who has no real apple experience (last time I really used an apple was probably System 6), so I can't compare it.

Not an Apple product, but what about a Yoga that can work as a laptop with a supported screen, or as a tablet to split the difference?

Happy Birthday!

This finally came to Hartford this weekend. It is excellent. The cats are delightful, the people are awesome, the city is lovely.

I believe that's how I won in 2014. Here's what this year's winning bracket looks like.

Mine has been on Nougat for quite a while now (7.1.1 now) and while I am not a power user by any means, I have no complaints. It has worked flawlessly as far as I am aware. Obviously I cannot speak to your particular device.

Happy Birthday!

I saw the P5 in Minneapolis years ago. It was an odd and fun show - I feel like a remember there being a dancing bear with a snare drum. I have been listening to this. I don't really like anything else Fugazi did, but this EP is just about perfect.

I made this. It is a usb dac with a headphone driver built in. I made it as I was tired of having lots of boxes and cables all over my desk. Obviously it still needs a case.

Happy Birthday!

I once put a Clearaudio cartridge on my turntable. I chose it over another brand as the dealer told me the stylus was replaceable. Sometime later, the stylus broke, and when I went to get a replacement, I was told that in fact the stylus was not replaceable, but that they would give me a $100 trade in on the broken cart. They suggested that a trade in discount was the equivalent of being able to replace the stylus. I suppose it would have been had the discount been a little steeper, but $100 off a $650 cartridge was laughable.

Hope you have a trump free day.

Happy birthday!

I was supposed to play tennis this afternoon. Instead I am snowed in and have nothing to do but work and/or shovel. Worst snow day ever.

EI flux is directional, so often easier to avoid. And they have lower bandwidth meaning they act as noise filters.

On reread it is clearly sarcasm. And I clearly need to lighten up.

Despite all the evidence to the contrary ...

Is it Trump?
