My very first laptop had windows 3.1 on it, had a black and white screen, and was lucky to be capable of playing solitaire. In those days, that was an amazing accomplishment. A friend of mine even managed to find a “Portable” computer that weighed in at 50 lbs., and had a 4-inch screen, while it was great for gaming, (old school C-64 gaming), it was not really a great computer to cart around. A … Read more
Over the past year or so, I have noticed a number of windows tablets enter the market. Most have little to no storage capacity which I have learned is not good. I have also seen a fair number of combination android and windows devices that look nice, but for many reasons fail to deliver both the full windows experience, along with the full android expectations we have grown accustomed to.

I, like many others in this country, wear hearing aids.

Well, I got to my room and found that there was no Wi-Fi, nor could I make a … Read more

From the US government to Amazon, drones are of great interest for many. Now the level of drones the government and Amazon may use far exceed my budget, but there are many remote controlled vehicles in almost any range of budgets. One that I have discovered recently is the SKY Hawkeye HM1315 Quadcopter. Now this is not yet a purchase, it is more a part of research. I have been trying to do some due diligence … Read more
