Exactly this. I'm about to graduate with a BS in Computer Science from Oakland University. We're less than a mile away from Chrysler World HQ. I'd say about 90% of my classmates already are, or are going to, work for one of t

Alright I can believe that, the mac pro is not a machine that an average user owns let alone can afford. You have two graphics cards that are most likely more powerful than a single card that an average pc gamer has. Also those games aren&#

I don't know but what if they did? You offer no alternative other than saying it should be illegal, what if a service actually did run out of money immediately? Throw them in jail because their servers got repossessed by the bank? If a

So say TwitPic literally had no money to keep the servers running that housed your data, what then? Tell them to suck it and all get new jobs to support your data? Or give you a grace period to reclaim that data? Number 2 sounds like a comp

Yep, no one is going to want to pay $600+ for a phone(in the US). TBH, over $200 for a phone on contract is really high as well.

These aren't monitors, they're full computers. You can't even use them as external monitors like the old iMacs could.

Except that this is an all in one computer, not just a monitor. There's a miniscule amount of people that have the hardware to power that dell monitor. Plus the iMac costs the same and is an actual computer.

I have a hard time believing this, what games were you playing and what graphics cards are you using? And by 30hz/60hz do you mean your actual frame rate or the monitors refresh rate?

They don't prevent rending at full resolution it's just disabled by default. You can switch it on in system preferences.

Yea I understand that, I know there's an actual CPU running actual code but I was trying to make the distinction between a full blown app and something that just streams a url given to it by a device.

By run actual apps, I mean actually run the app's code on the device. There is no netflix app for the chromecast, it requires a separate device with the netflix app. The chromecast is a glorified wireless hdmi dongle.

Anything that requires more than minimal computation? Chromecast pretty much just mirrors a screen, it also requires a separate device to control it. You could browse the web on this without requiring a phone or laptop.

They don't show the price on the 6 or the 9 either, they definitely aren't "embarrassed" about their phones and tablets.

Same here, I want a Fire TV but Amazon's particular flavor of android seems to be a lot more locked down than ASOP and has a smaller ecosystem. This will be perfect for me.

That's still a decent time investment, also in league you don't even have access to all the heroes without a huge time/money investment, everything other than player skill is even in dota.
