    Wait a minute,... people go off on thinking Apple charges to much for the extra RAM. Yet Google is charging $100 to go from 64 Gigs to 128 Gig's?
    No sir they aren't. 

     - The base model Slate is $599 and includes the Gen Intel Celeron processor, 4GB of RAM, and 32GB of SSD storage.
    Another $100 doubles both the RAM and SSD to 8GB and 64GB storage.

     - For $799 you get an 8th Gen Core m3 processor, 8GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage.
    Add another $200 and you double the SSD to 128 and get an 8th Gen Intel Core i5 processor.

     - For anyone wanting to be ridiculous because, well they can and have more money than sense IMO, drop $1599 on the top-of-the-line Slate and you have an 8th Gen Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and 256GB SSD (which I believe is NVM) storage.
    Pixel 3,
    64 GB: $799
    128 GB: $899

  • Apple hit with lawsuit after admitting to slowing down iPhones with depleted batteries

    They [Apple] should have made it a feature,
    Apple did make this a feature; it warns you when your battery needs to be replaced. See https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207453. If the user had the ability to turn it off the throttling then the phone would would shutdown unexpectedly and the user would be ticked off.

    This lawsuit is totally stupid. Should someone sue Apple because their batteries wear out?
    Look at the date this support page was posted.  "Published Date: Nov 29, 2017". Uh, today is the 21st.
