Call your local news station. I bet they might be interested in a health-scare piece. "We all know robo-callers are annoying, but could they also be deadly? More at 5." That and contact your govt representatives.

Are you refering to the trackpad that doesn't have buttons, and the whole trackpad moves down when you click? If so, I have a Lenovo Yoga laptop that did that too. I bought a regular trackpad from the same line off of eBay and swapp

I personally think there will be a market for it. People are already somewhat use to "typing" on tablet and phone screens (I make more mistakes using my thumbs on my phone screen than typing normally on the 1st gen Yoga Book). I

I have a first generation Lenovo Yoga Book too. I mainly purchased it on a whim too - thought I would use it for some specific purpuse, but never did. However I've used it quite a bit since then for other things, mostly taking notes,

I have the first generation Lenovo Yoga Book. It's actually okay to type on. I'm not the best typer, but I have some decent muscle memory and my typing on that thing is about 95% accurate (one typo about every third word). It&#

"can be" not "must be". Driver License number or just about anything else is legal, it's just up to the bank whether or not they want to accept it.

Credit check and deposit? Since they had no competitor, I guess they could get away with it. Yes, some companies are rotten, but some do provide just as simple ways to get service without a credit check. > but none as simple as verfiyin

A solution that is as simple: Pay a deposit. If you don't pay the bill, they use your deposit and terminate your service. My current ISP didn't even ask for a deposit. I just visited one of their storefronts so they could check m

Because I close the lid when not in use, and don't want programs running in the background to stop when it goes to sleep.

The first thing I always do on a new laptop (or install) is go into Power Settings and change the Closing Lid action from putting the computer to sleep to just turning off the screen. It's surprising how many people never change the se
