It looks interesting. But not for $1800. And that's just the base price for 256 GB of storage, which is not enough in my view. 512 costs another $130. So after tax it's the price of a decent MacBook. As for color, you get Porcelain (Dull Gold) …

Even if the chip was every bit as good as they say, it doesn’t necessarily mean much in the real world. AMD doesn’t make computers. Neither does Intel. To use these chips you pretty much have to run windows, which still sucks. Apple was legitimat…

LOL. The only thing I trust less than Facebook is the FTC.

"Bad hardware sales figures." OK, this is the problem. "Bad hardware" figures cannot equate with "some decline year to year." As an enthusiastic capitalist, I must say that one of the problems with our system is that often, corporate value is …

I get HBO Max free with my ATT plan. We also subscribe to Discovery+. It sounds like we'll drop D+ and stay with Max. Now, if ATT drops the free subscription, it's finally be time to give them the boot.
