Con: Apple hardware is expensive.
Pro: Tech support is comparatively cheap, thanks to the Apple store.
Remember that hardware is just a small part of the cost of a computer.
None of them have thunderbolt. They're high quality products but they're full of non-upgradeable glue.
Don't get me wrong, I love the Surface lineup and own multiple of them, but to call them the best is utterly laughable.
As a programmer and designer: Noooope! Light and reflections create monitor glare which in turn create headaches, color/contrast inaccuracies, and more trouble.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy daylight... when I'm outdoors or in a rest area. When I'm working, I'm working. Outdoors & daylight are distractions at that point.
This depends entirely on your degree. Some things have to be taken sequentially for several years. Going to CC will reduce the amount of credits you have to take at another university but depending on your degree the CC might not reduce the length of your stay less than 4+ years.
How could they not be intentionally getting it wrong? Sticking your fingers in your ears and ignoring facts while spreading lies isn't getting it intentionally wrong?
I imagine that the programming was already done and they only had to adjust a few constants/variables. Testing for something like brakes could easily be automated/simulated and then verified in the real world, easily under a week.
As opposed to outdoor air? With all of the pollutants and allergens? Indoor air generally has filters and purifiers. Don't get me wrong, I love outdoor air too. It just seems silly to claim that indoor air is more dangerous than outdoor air.
If you're paying for the CHANCE to get something, then as far as I'm concerned it's a lottery-style gamble. You might be guaranteed 10 rare items, but it's not guaranteed you'll get something you want. You might as well flush your money down the toilet x% of the time.
I used custom ROMs ~ from Android 2.1 until Android 4.2. Eventually I noticed that unless you use a Galaxy or Nexus device, your ROM will probably never get updated and your uncommon hardware may get burned out early (I've lost many wifi / gps / bluetooth / 3g-4g chipsets that way). Since 4.2 I've let the phone remain stock from whatever company offers frequent updates and little bloat. I would buy a Nexus or Pixel but they have always missed the mark for the kind of hardware I want. The Nexus 6 was to huge and expensive. The Nexus 4 and 5 were unimpressive. The pixel is ridiculously overpriced.
While I don't use custom ROMS anymore I can definitely see the value in them. They fix things which manufacturers break when customizing Android. Custom ROMs also offer things which vanilla Android doesn't. Custom ROMS usually perform much better.
When it comes to Android phones I don't have company loyalty. So far my household has gone through two Motorolas, two Sonys, a Blu, three Samsungs (never again), two HTC, two LG, and one Amazon. If you include Android tablets I've also had a Lenovo (never again), an Nvidia, and a Huawei. If I had to pick favorites it would be nvidia, Motorola (before Lenovo) and Sony.
Seriously? Have they ever thought of not publishing the RSS feed then? They have to go out of their way to make one. It's not something a magical fairy does that they can't stop.

You know how I know that you're not a web developer? You think Edge is more standards compliant than Chrome. I laugh in your general direction.
Because someone has to build apps for the ipads to run?
To counter your argument, SOME people do/don't want (insert experience here). Some people do want one single experience. I'm one of them.

So you're saying it's better not to moderate use of plutonium? ;)

In other news, the sky is blue and water is wet. Thanks captain obvious.

Untrue! Proper video cards and HDMI 2.0 will run 4k@60.

You raise an excellent point. The results are going to depend on the building and what's inside of it.

So... they made a different version of GPS and named it... GPS? Global... Galactic... they might want a name that starts with a different letter.
Was it so hard to tell us that? You couldn't have said told us what was going on before now? Still, thanks for bringing it back.
They're not becoming a CABLE company, they're becoming a company which provides video. HUGE difference.
Use a power strip. Problem solved.
Conversions are only one metric though. Time on site and bounce rate are also strong indicators to traffic sources such as search engines.

Expensive areas to live in don't leave much of a budget for raising kids
In California almonds and avocados ARE staple foods.

Strongly disagree. I don't want to have to go looking for those steps.
