What are we doing running ads for Microsoft?
We're not. I just thought this might be of interest to the FR Windows crowd, if they're still looking for technology that was previously too pricey to consider (lots of comments about that problem in earlier threads). I've had to ping the Windows list with a lot of downer news about Windows and Microsoft lately (and of course caught some flak for that), so I figured I was overdue to put some upbeat stuff out.
Have one and happy with it.
It is an enticing offer but I don’t need one, even at a 30% reduction I don’t know anyone who needs one bad enough for me to pay for it.
Of course that is what Christmas is all about it seems, sacrificing needs for wants, even when it will cost you all the way to next WANT SEASON.
Such is my cynicism these days, probably just me.
I bought a Surface 3 in the spring. At first I liked it, but then some of the proprietary Microsoft quirks began to annoy me. The inability to use any common USB charger was one example. Then I bought a Dell Inspiron i7 and found that it was much handier, faster, and easier to use. I hardly ever use the Surface 3 now.
