It started off decent but it got too frustrating to tolerate any longer. I’ll give the list of pro’s first as it is much much shorter: 1. S-pen 2. Quad core cpu Cons: 1. QHD screen is a battery killer 2. Typical Samsung bloatware 3....

Sometimes the simple things will get you. Kinda reminds me of Jesus when he mentions using the simple to confound the wise…:) One of the areas I have always had a keen interest in is audio. By the time i was 14 I had the first component system biult. I did...

With this Windows as a service push Microsoft is making AND the fact they have trademarked the name Windows365, I see no reason to believe anyone who says Microsoft is NOT going to make windows a subscription like Office365. Maybe not at first. For those technically...

Sure this is about trying to control the content but it goes even further than that. Karl has this nailed here. It WILL result in higher prices across the board AND will result in MORE monopolistic behavior by incumbents. Why? The barrier to entry is going to be...

The Supreme Court has ruled that if the FCC applies Title II to the Internet, all uses of telecommunications will have to pass the “just and reasonable” test. Bureaucrats can review the fairness of Google ’s search results, Facebook ’s news feeds and news sites’ links...
