    the only idiot here seems to be you. throwing out insults and not backing up any of your statements, while also putting words into my mouth.

    windows +L at work is pretty much the only time i use that key, or searching on windows 8

    i also dabble in music, and while I havent gotten a pro yet, pretty much every DJ i work with has gotten rid of their apple products for a pro for the reasons you listed.

    yeah DJ is niche, but not really when every kid in HS thinks he can be a DJ and gets mommy and daddy to buy it for them. even if they dont go anywhere.

    the surface pro is to DJs today what the mac was to audio/video people 10-15 years ago

    at bestbuy you can its 250 cheaper if you forgo the keyboard (at my local store anyway)

    the keyboard that is of quality is not only 25$. Sure you can get one for 25 bucks, but it wont be of quality. i know this because i bought a 35$ one before

    there are millions and millions who bought those and DO in fact want one of these however

    it costs a grand with the keyboard attachment.

    so to make a more realistic comparo, you need to add the keyboard attachment to the ipad air.

    then you can decide whether or not USB ports and win32 apps are worth the 250 premium

  8. Re:How is this relevant? on Surface Pro 3 Handily Outperforms iPad Air 2 and Nexus 9 · · Score: 1

    not so sure i agree with that. i think the correct comparison is the price comparo. which one can do more for the same price.

    i dont think it was ever a question. the surface pro line has always been the powerhouse.

    I think its fair to compare pricepoints, and the surface pro and ipad air would be similar in that regard.

    between the 2 i would personally take the surface, USB ports as well as the ability to run win32 apps and dual boot? sign me up

    on that list i grow all my own strawberries, broccoli tomatoes and lettuce. (dont care for almonds or walnuts) I do enough for me to save a few hundred bucks in grocery costs, in a 20 by 20 plot of land

    now of course im not saying EVERYONE should be like me, but there is little reason to ship all that produce all over the country and world when many many smaller plots would be more ecologically safe.

    i buy all my vegetables at the local farm market so no, they are not feeding me.

    you have a going point in there however and we should stop farming crops in the desert and farm in the fertile lands. our country has plenty of farmable land that we dont need to do so in a desert

    way to overlook the point i have been making, put words in my mouth AND insult me at the same time. Kudos....

    I got no problem if people want to live there.

    I DONT WANT TO PAY FOR THEM TO

    If I make a smart decision to live somewhere where the weather is nice and i have plenty of water, I dont want you people in california coming over and taking it from me. If you thought ahead you wouldnt be begging me for water now would you

    so TL;DR - right back at ya

    moving water is taking the water from others. so other than desalination (which i support) how do you propose they move water from elsewhere, without taking it from others who didnt decide to live in a desert....

    i got no problem with people who want to live in a desert, or on top of a mountain. but if you need water, you pay for it. Like wise if you want to live on top of a mountain, you pay for the infrastructure to get there, not me

    building in a spot with little rainfall and making it one of the biggest populated areas in the country is not progress, its insanity.

    how much money could be saved if those people lived in places that had water???
