For me though, Firefox is already the best browser on mobile though.

The only significant one would be Amazon's app store, which doesn't really offer any improvements over Google's.

A lot of ISPs shipped stuff that were IE shells, like AOL (and we had Walmart Connect for a time when I was growing up), in addition to browsers like Maxathon. Even Netscape (8?) at one point had an option to be an IE shell.

My thoughts too. If versions of Windows less than Windows 7 are supported which cannot run IE11, and IE11 is the only version being supported, are those older versions of Windows still really supported? Windows Vista has support through 201

Same thing with Charter for me. They constantly try to sell me a $7/month addon that will give access to over-the-air channels through cable. I got that with a >$10 HD antenna, so I'm not sure what the value would be. (and I&#x

Yeah. They say Microsoft won't provide "active support," so maybe that's why Vista is not included? It's probably mainly because Vista has a relatively low market share: probably lower than XP. It's thus not wo

Even things like listening to music were included in this. You could do this while in class (whether earbuds or sometimes the teacher might play some during working time), commute/riding the bus, doing homework, etc. which could make t

Heh, since we're stuck on Windows 7 I still use classic mode despite having a very capable machine, out of preference. I also use fluxbox when on *nix.

I have never experienced that with a T450s. Granted, I use a different Thinkpad day-to-day, but I get my hands on T450s as they're the standard issue where I work.

Already I run into issues occasionally with mobile sites not working in Firefox for Mobile. Usually I just switch to the full version of sites and they work better, but I don't think Firefox is being tested.

Expert options are OOXML and ODF. You can choose your default. I find import/export of ODF is better than LibreOffice import/export of OOXML, FWIW.

The guidelines do say most things about politics don't belong, but I feel like this would not fall into that. Is that your concern? I think the guidelines are broad enough that the opposite question needs to be asked.

As someone who has never used LogMeIn, could you explain what the problems are? I use LastPass pretty extensively (and was thinking of buying a subscription later this month), but have never used LogMeIn.

For my main development laptop, I actually recently got a Thinkpad W550s at work -- 15.6" screen. I was worried about the size, but I have come to like it much better than the 12.1" I had before (Thinkpad X220). I guess I'm s

That seems like an unlikely meaning to me when Windows RT is effectively discontinued as far as I can tell. There is no Windows RT equivalent of Windows 10 and no Windows RT version of the Surface 3. There are plenty of Windows tablets at a

Older works I have seen referred to CE as meaning "Christian Era" anyway. I don't know if that predates "Common Era" or not, though.
