Plex is my top use for a somewhat old laptop. I have an i3 Lenovo with a broken screen running as a headless Plex server (plus Calibre, a little light web hosting, etc.) It's the first media solution that the whole family actually uses

You may have to go to a more urban area, but look for local techie Meetups or a local makerspace / hackerspace. Or reach out to some remote ones where you know people. We have dozens of laptops sitting at our local hackerspace. Get to

I've spent maybe 1% of my time on Windows in the past five years and I'm still constantly trying to snap my MacBook's windows by dragging to the edges of the screen. I've been on ChromeOS a lot lately and I really like t

UCF is a great example and one that I'm familiar with. UCF has a faculty member that's very involved in their programming contest program. That brings a lot more consistency, probably a little money, makes it easier to recruit stu

Touchscreen support. For example, I use Zinio to read magazines. The webapp can't zoom, doesn't handle portrait mode well, and is pretty bad with touch. Actually it's pretty broken in general. But the Android app runs great o

I used a combination of OneTab, The Great Suspender, and Evernote. I let The Great Suspender keep my memory footprint down but every week or so I scan through my tabs and throw as many as I can into Evernote with tags. Anything left over I

It's kind of sad to see but it was rotting away. For those that don't know, their recent NOOK tablets (not the e-ink readers) are Samsung Galaxy Tabs with the Google Play Store pre-installed so there isn't much reason to main

I've struggled a lot with having _one_ system that works. The best ones for me are either a physical notebook (Moleskine style or spiral) or a stack of index cards. What's good about index cards over a notebook is that you can lay

There's no reason a Girl Scout troop can't do all sorts of adventure activities. My wife led a troop that did all their meetings at a GS camp where they usually cooked over a campfire as part of each meeting. The biggest blow to G
