I bought my dad an HP Chromebook 14 on Woot. Then they showed up on Woot again a month or two later and I got one for my wife. I haven’t changed my opinion of Google (no privacy) and still lean toward Apple and Microsoft products. My dad has a gmail account and so does […]
I was looking for a way to delete a notebook from OneNote 2013 that is stored in OneDrive. Found some links, but nothing that was clear worked, and everything else was unclear. A few steps make it very easy: 1. Close the notebook in OneNote (right click > close notebook) 2. Navigate to your online […]
I use Windows 7 and 8.1, IOS, OSX, and Windows Phone 8.1 pretty much every day at work and at home. I also use my Kindle Fire HD and Fire TV as needed for reading and movies (love Amazon Prime). I’m a little obsessed with gadgets and rotate them through to keep up with the […]
My wife has never had a smartphone before. I set her up with my son’s Samsung Focus S after he upgraded to a Nokia Lumia 925 (I’m now jealous of the thin and light 925 compared to my Lumia 920). The Focus S was fine, but Windows Phone 7 does not have font size adjustment […]
The iPad and the Surface RT are both good tablets. Neither will run the main desktop OS apps from their supplying companies (OSX from Apple or full Windows from Microsoft). Both are full touch environments, and one of the knocks on the Surface RT (other than it doesn’t run full windows) is some of the […]
What happens when Windows Phone has the same number of apps as Android and IOS? Including 99 of the top 100 mobile apps, plus a few exclusives “everyone” wants? Never happen you say? Internationally, Windows Phone has growing market share. IDC, Yahoo News via BGR, and an outfit called Kantar WorldPanel have been quoted all […]
With Microsoft blowing out the Windows Surface RT tablets, and my budget not making room for a Surface Pro, I decided to take the plunge on a Surface RT. They seem to have dropped from $499 at launch to $300-400 now like here – Microsoft Surface (32GB) A great application sounds like using this tablet for […]
I went to see the Lumia 1020 at the local AT&T store. The quick plusses compared to my Lumia 920: Thinner Lighter Excellent low light camera – they have a neat display box with various light to test it yourself The price is a little high, but if I didn’t already have the 920, I […]
I’ve been fiddling around with the raspberry pi and an old Atrix 4G laptop dock. Lots of people show how to hook them up on the web, and if it wasn’t a little cumbersome with the cables it would qualify as a super thin netbook. Still haven’t decided what to make out of the raspberry […]
I finally decided to go ahead with the Lumia 920 Windows Phone 8 device rather than waiting on the Samsung Ativ S. No word out of AT&T about the Ativ S, and it was just announced on Rogers in Canada and still does not have LTE (kind of a show stopper for me). So far […]
