    That was my most recent Chromebook. Lovely thing. Didn't like the trackpad and it was a little slow though. More than happy with my Chromebox but will definitely buy an updated Flip should one be announced.

    It may not be the perfect computer, but it works. I pretty much had to get a new one after the screen on my old HP Chromebook 14 started giving up. 2500 SEK (ca 270 eur) and I'm taking notes on lectures without having to adjust the screen angle to try to get it to stop shorting out. My laptop is pretty much the center of my studies, and those takes enough time without battling my computer. The 1080p screen is pretty fantastic considering the price of it.
  3. does someone use Mac devices? I have mac book pro 15 retina, i phone 6, 3 i pods one of Vertigo black and red

  4. Man cave with appropriate screen wallpaper.
  5. These twin screens look incredible. Don't like the speakers too much but overall it's very good. Congrats
  6. Speaker placement yet to be determined. Needed something with a narrow profile.
  7. nobody Apple Mac? I just received from Amazon my 5th 1TB Hard disk.
    So now i have 7200 vinyls, 4500 CD, cassettes and 15000 albums in mp3 and mpe4. About 500 complete discografy . I'm proud of me ahahahahahahah but i'm the oldest fan of u2 here, i think, bye
  8. In my opinion these screens are "screaning" for an horizontal speaker like this:

  9. So, I guess the general consensus is that smart watches are useless?

    No surprises there. What's wrong with a nice automatic or quartz watch?
  10. That aren't great for music though. I will get kne for the living room though. The speakers I have come with a lovely sub woofer that sit under the desk. They were £100 and do the job well for that price. For now.

    Long term I'll want an audio amp that I can run everything into then output to a proper set of speakers. All in good time.

    I enjoyed my smart watch while I had it. Fairly useful but the hardware just isn't there yet. They need to be slimmer with much better battery life.

    There is no general consensus on smart watches yet I don't think. I've got one (and I had another before it) and I really enjoy it. It's great for checking notifications without taking out my phone while I'm at work, and similarly great for changing track / volume without having to take out my (rather large) phone. So, definitely not completely useless.

    I'm still not sure how I feel about them overall though. I've had two, and I bought the second one because I just couldn't take the battery life on my Moto 360 any longer. This one is much better in that department, but where does it end? You can buy a nice automatic or quartz watch and have it last a very long time. Everyday I'm wearing this smartwatch I'm conscious that the battery is holding a little less charge with every cycle, and it's just becoming another device in my upgrade cycle. I don't know how often I want to be paying for new smartwatches. If this doesn't hold me for at least 3 years OR smartwatch functionality doesn't significantly expand I won't be buying another.
