Okay that is your opinion. Why assume I dont like them? I seriously have no preference so it doesnt matter if I have it or not,

Don't take it too personally, to be honest my only complain with small keyboards are the small arrow keys, or some sort of weird arrow keys, if you see my laptop, albeit very blurry, the arrow keys left and right are ok but the up and down are terrible, other than that I don't have any other complain.

Well, he has all the USB ports at hand :D

BINGO!

I tend to plug permanently connected devices in the back, removable ones in the front.

I guess whatever suits your needs / floats your boat.

Not saying it's a bad thing was just a little confused for half a second and realised the tower unit was backwards.

I don't find it too bad really. It's basic, but works for me.

Not sure about that one, my main issue with Dell keyboards, and most other OEM ones too is that the keys are like jamming your finger into peanut butter, all mushy, and when typing most of the day my fingers will start to cramp

Wanted to be different is a small reason

Some is we got mad that Cooler Master on the front did all the ports at top upside down.

Main is we have a lot of USB 3 stuff :D so fun fun fun

My workstation at the office:

as5kOeR.jpg

Dell Latitude E6510

Core i5 M560 2.67 GHz,

4 GB RAM

Intel HD Graphics

I don't think I could handle the monitor envy I'd be suffering, if that was my view all day. Something would have to be done, asap.

My setup :) Thinkpad T420, iPad mini, Asus 24" LCD, i7-870/GTX 480 rig (soon 7950!), Razer BlackWidow Mechanical/Backlit keyboard, Logitech G400.

Amazing setup man. Everything (except the ipad) looks very professional and elegant.

Loving the Thinkpad and the case.

Thanks! The case is an NZXT Guardian, I really like the quality/looks of it. Can't tell from the picture but it has a 3-sensor temeperature display and the lines on it light up blue which matches the keyboard (also can't see). Want to get a blue Razer DeathAdder to finish it off, but I am just too happy with my G400 to justify it.

As for the iPad...yah, it's a bit out of place, but it needs some love from me, too :p

    • Some Quantum Computing News Including Microsoft

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.

      Interesting. I'm not using a VPN with my phone. I tried though my home internet (Rogers) and my cellular internet (Telus) using their respective DNS servers and both trigger the dialog above.
