For me the great use of these tablets is keeping notes with my experiments. You can design experiments with drawings quickly. You can keep a dated log of experiments. You can paste graphs in result files etc. Everything without typing. I love it, it works for me better than anything else. My major reason not to buy a surface tablet though is that they are absolutely not repairable. I'm using a Samsung tablet at the moment that I can peel apart. Looking at HP for a new tablet that you can take apart and fix.
And I'm still waiting for a good open source replacement for MS onenote that I can use on linux...
At my place of work they started swiping everybody for explosives a few years after 911. They were training the security people in using the equipment. I tested positive one day. The instructor didn't even blink but asked me simply if I had been working in the garden. I had been pulling weeds at my place the day before. Apparently that was enough to pick up fertilizer traces on my clothing even though I had never used fertilizer in the garden and had lived there for a few years already.
One of the worst companies I had to deal with in the past is Comcast. These people are RUDE. Unfortunately there are a lot of high trees around my house. Are there any people who know how badly trees degrade satellite reception ? Would a bigger disc help ?
