I know quite a few older people who started to cherish them, as they now have the real estate to finally feel at home on a mobile device they can just easily take with them. Tablets were great, just less portable. So for quite a relevant se

YMMV I switched from Mac to WIN a few years ago, because maintaining MB Pros became a nightmare, after having had six burned mainboards (with Macbook Pro devices each) within 3 years. I had definitely enough. Happy my former employer had to

Thanks for showing. Will take a closer loo, as this might help me de-Boogle and de-Microsoft my freelance business. Thanks a ton.
