You may not have but I've upgraded my computer several times in the past year. I've added more ram, different video card.

It's amazing how much effort an end user will to to not read error messages. I just got a screen grab from a user asking "What does this mean?" and the error was "Not enough space on disk." *Facedesk*

What I hate is when you enter in a ton of info into a form and one of those fields is password. You make a mistake on something like the phone number and it wipes out the password field forcing you to type it again only to have the process

One of the reasons I just love the new Zenbook UX305. Thinner than the new macbook, higher res screen/webcam, 3 usb3 ports, hdmi and sdcard and fanless... and a damn matte screen for $699. I'm really happy with this machine.

I guess I should be happy that I'm gay and the state won't let me get married so I don't have to deal with this BS. But then I've also been with the same person for 19 years who also things the ring this is a scam.

I'm sure it isn't that hard for somebody to get their hands on the private keys for those products and I bet they used the same password. Edit: LOL, ok so the keys are right there on that link. Nice!

Dell is about the only manufacturer that will let you get generic install DVDs. They use a bios based licensing system these days so you don't even have to deal with those issues so much. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&

I just did this on my new Zenbook and it was extremely easy install. Though I was installing from an MSDN install DVD which isn't something everybody would have on hand.

I can imagine all the ways an os can leak information if it isn't fully encrypted at a sector level. Just having the filnames is an serious risk.

Never found a use case with a tablet that worked for me. I have my main PC, a laptop and a large phone. Then again I was never one to sit on a couch and watch tv with a laptop so I figured I was not in the right demographic for an ipad.
