A hit or not - but I just ordered one.
I stopped carrying a Windows laptop around early in 2013 when I switched to a Nexus 10 for everyday use. Now I want to show other people that there are alternatives even within the familiar laptop form factor. Plus I want to demonstrate to customers that I can deliver a fully functional application without Windows.
- acheron 13y agoIt's funny, I would have agreed with you not all that long ago, but nowadays I'm much more concerned about avoiding Google than I am about avoiding Windows.
- bdfh42 13y agoI take your point but my switching to a Nexus was all about form factor and convenience than any specific issue with Windows. Now I am going to try out a Chromebook - pretty confident that it can support my day to day (non coding) requirements. The security issues do have to be addressed and we do need to get the spies out of our lives but as far as I can see all the available platforms are currently corrupted by those agencies at the moment.
