What You've Just Bought!

Re: The What You've just Bought thread!

That is if you have the option to use DVI in the first place. But yeah, HDMI has always been media-oriented, makes the most sense to use it on actual TVs not home monitors (especially with how lazy manufacturers are about properly supporting a standard).

Though with all that said, I still wonder why they don't just use miniDisplayPort anyway.

On topic! Today I bought a couple pizzas, some external hdds, a whole bunch new keyboards/mice, and some POWERADE YEAH.

DP would be nice, but still hasn't really caught on yet.

I kinda want an iPad Mini on 8GB a month LTE plan. The iPad mini will be about £269. But the LTE plan is £50/mo for 8GB so it's a rip off and I highly doubt i'll go through with it. Maybe get a 4GB or 2GB plan.

Just enough for 2 hours browsing a day and youtube when I go to work by train. I use my phone at the moment but obviously a slightly bigger screen would be nicer.

You could always get a larger phone and avoid needing a second plan.

Could. But I don't want a phone that big. The iPad would go in my bag. My phone needs to stay in my pocket. I actually wish Apple would put a wacom digitizer in the screen as well, I really like that feature on note tab. I might not get it, though. I'm tempted to get a nice SSD or two and upgrade to 32GB of RAM. Can't wait to see A6X benchies as well. Gunna be mental GPU speed. POWA.

The stars are aligning for OS X and iOS to become one OS that will run on Mac and iDevices. .. give it 5 years.

Re: The What You've just Bought thread!

It was smart of Apple to introduce A6x now since we are just starting to get solid benchmarks for Exynos 5250 and it appears to beat A6 by a fair amount. The real question is gpu performance though the Mali T604 should be fast but who knows how it stacks up against the competition.

KMAN, you could just get tethering on your phone and connect your iPad that way.
