chromebooks suck

I bought an asus chromebook and it sucks.

had it 2 months before the touchscreen died, not repairable, no longer in stock even though it was only build 10 months ago and half my android apps wouldn't work on it.

Got a refund and bought a cheaper large android tablet which just works (and is faster) so the chromebook is now going to the waste skip.

Recently used 'Reach out' in an email. Felt dirty sending it.

Crap in -> Crap out

Here's my On-CALL

many years ago working as an IT apprentice I had to spend a week in each department. During the week in the tendering department they were showing me how to use the system on the old green screen terminals. After several minutes of them trying to get it to work they said 'hey you're IT' at which point I walked over and pressed the On button on the front and watched as the screen came to life.

My Sony Xperia Z1 has a magnetic dock and power connection, so Apple is stealing other people's ideas again.

IE8

"People on Windows XP are still using IE 6 or 7; IE 8 and 9 won't run on Microsoft's 11-year-old operating system."

I think you'll find the IE8 runs perfectly fine on Windows XP.
