For as big of an Apple fanboy as Rush is, he’s not doing them any favors! All this week he talked about NOT getting the 8, and waiting for the X!
I don’t have a dog in this fight; I still have a flip phone and JUST bought myself a tablet (Fire 8) and I’m not sure I’m going to get all that much use out of it!
ZZ Top
“Heard It On The X”
Do you remember
back in nineteen sixty-six?
Country Jesus, hillbilly blues,
that’s where I learned my licks.
Oh, from coast to coast and line to line
in every county there,
I’m talkin’ ‘bout that outlaw X
is cuttin’ through the air.
Anywhere, y’all,
everywhere, y’all,
I heard it, I heard it,
I heard it on the X.
We can all thank Doctor B
who stepped across the line.
With lots of watts he took control,
the first one of its kind.
So listen to your radio
most each and every night
‘cause if you don’t I’m sure you won’t
get to feeling right.
Anywhere, y’all,
everywhere, y’all,
I heard it, I heard it,
I heard it on the X.
I JUST bought myself a tablet (Fire 8), and I’m not sure I’m going to get all that much use out of it!
My family gave me one to replace my Acer tablet that died after two years, last Christmas.
#1 Use is for my Kindle books. Screen is great as good as any Kindle reader I have seen. Grand kids with I pads can’t believe how fast and easy to read the Fire Tablet is.
#2 Use is to text without a small smartphone screen or too big Chromebook. Works great with MySMS.
#3 Use is to check and mainly delete emails without using my Chromebook. I have my google mail and comcast mail accts. on the tablet.
#4 To Show pictures to family and friends again the best size versus smart phone and Chromebook.
#5 A pleasant surprise being able to print high quality pics going to my HP Cloud printer. Sometimes Google, Amazon and HP seem get into nasty situations and don’t want to print pics unless you send them to for a for fee printer. My Fire Tablet just sends great pics to my HP Google Cloud and my HP printer prints out great 8X11 pics.
#6. Great control over electronic control devices like the Nest and other electronic monitoring gear for the home, yard and personal health.
#7. Low cost if I or someone drops/breaks it or it just dies, I can replace it for a nominal cost.
#8. Its operating system seems as fast as my Chromebook which makes Windows Ten look like a slow dying turtle.
#9. With my Prime, It came with a lot of my connections ready to go or easy to set up, like my Kindle books/acct. Emails were set up and ready to get my PW. Contact lists were easily sent from my Android phone to Fire Tablet.
