When the person who takes your order at Wendy's mentions that they've heard bad things about Windows 8, you know the game is over.
In reply to: Windows 8.x is dead.
So in 2015 Microsoft may bring back features they introduced in 1995!

Original Surface RT w/Type Cover owner here, and I've got my Surface 2 on order. In my opinion, the original RT was perfect for students and business use, whilst the new Surface 2 is ideal for a broader range of consumers...

Lately, I've been going to work with a friend of mine that does the three cardinal sins (with the phone) while driving: texting, talking and mapping. The first is the worse. Nonetheless, talking on the phone (even without...

@Michael Endler Yes, the benefits (with the current peripherals, e.g. regular monitors) are not persuasive enough. Well put. When you also add the price (more than a hundred bucks for Windows 8 + a new monitor), Windows...

"...at least we can say we were the spark that started it all."
Indeed! Sounds like a very cool and rewarding project. Thanks for following up.

Is it cool? Oh geez yes, drool worthy even. But, at this size and price, we start reaching a range where I don't see any advantage over a Yoga.

It was so successful that it attracted outside attention, and they got a grant - to buy a roomful of Apple computers! Then, we sort of got the boot. I can't say I blame them, why wouldn't they want their students to work...

Thanks for sharing, Gary, sounds really cool. Is the project ongoing? It sounds like it was successful, and cost-effective. Have the benefits spurred growth in the program? Any of our readers who are involved in education...

Steep price. If Apple ever releases the so-called iPad Pro, I can actually imagine it undercutting this price, since I doubt Apple would charge a $400 premium for the larger screen. (That's assuming, of course, that the...
In reply to: Exepsnive, but the price will come down
This technology should dovetail nicely with the computerized medical record systems that are starting to be used. Not only will this online, real-time information be generated, but it will be available to all a patient's...

I love Android as much as the next guy, but in my opinion there's simply no way an Android tablet of any size is worth $850 or more. For that price, Windows tablets would need to be considered, and a comparison of...
In reply to: No way, not even close.
When I was pregnant and just after having my daughter marked the longest relationship I had with a hospital. I'd think new parents are a great opportunity for hospitals to extend into homes; they have lots of questions,...

What other ways can hospitals extend care beyond their four walls? I know a lot of hospitals offer smoking cessation programs and there are several apps for that. Perhaps a hospital could co-brand an app, and encourage and...

I have a 10 inch Nexus 10 that I port to 27 inch HDMI monitor using the Nexus's HDMI port. I have a 10 inch Samsung Note (Original) that I port to a 71 inch HDMI TV set frequently. Unfortunately Samsung has not seen fit...
In reply to: Large Screens or Tablets?
I have purchased many Samsung products in the past and I have been very happy with many of them. However, due to the recent technology wars with Apple and Microsoft, Samsung has started pumping out high-priced GARBAGE. A...

No. Period. And I want one. Bad. I would love a 15" tablet. But $1000.00 after taxes and chargers and whatnot? Nah. I realize it's all relevant and I'm a firm believer that it doesn't...
In reply to: No.
That's a great point, but unfortunately oftentimes it's just too lucrative. A lot of these giant businessees with huge patent collections can make a large portion of their yearly income just suing people over similar-ish...
