Very happy with my window N90II android tablet - does everything i need it to outdoors via wi-fi & was less than half the price of the cheapest Ipad or the upcoming base-windows 8 tablet. I'm sure surface et al will be nice to play with once they are officially out. But bang-per-buck is an important consideration in these recessionary times.

I really didn't like my android tablet It is completely useless I sold it. They are only good for surfing and checking email that's it. I might get Surface Pro because it seems like it will be first product on the market that will be good at PEN, touch and keyboard. I know there are android devices that do this but they will not be as good as the surface pro.

I want a surface pro but I'm afraid it will be prohibitively expensive. :(

I feel really let down this month by it all.

I guess it might be an android or if I can pull off lact8 for win8....

I have a tablet and a coworker just bought one. So the third coworker comes over and says. I would never buy a tablet. there is nothing i can do on a laptop and phone that i can use a tablet for. We just looked at him.

For me now..tablets are portable. I do not want to carry 5lbs of gear any more. I just have my tablet and happy.

I really don't get why everyone keeps on voting Windows. It's an unreleased platform with virtually no apps available compared to iOS or even Android.

I'm absolutely not an Apple fan, but I'm absolutely sure that there is no tablet that can provide an experience as good as an iPad. For Windows there just aren't any good apps and I doubt they'll arrive soon. Android tablet apps are still usually stretched phone apps that make bad use of the screen size. iOS is the only platform with a big selection of quality tablet apps and that's not something to be ignored.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By Legend20 · Posted

      You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.

    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support

      Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.

      Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
