| 1368284 | 2014-02-21 05:15:00 | That's quite a bitYeah with 2 hard drives, 17.3" screen, and dedicated graphics card its not surprising. | Greg (193) | ||
| 1368285 | 2014-02-21 06:37:00 | Why would you want to do that? I thought the purpose of buying a computer was so that you could turn it on and just go :) You mean, why would one want to replace Chrome OS with a full Linux distro? Oh, I don't know - just the small matter of having a real operating system that would let you actually do things. |

| 1368286 | 2014-02-21 08:54:00 | The upside of SSD drives is that you have instant access to your files, rather than the seek time associated with a needle reading a spinning disk. Surely you jest? If that were truly the level of your technical understanding, I wouldn't take your recommendation to purchase a toaster, let alone a computer.... But then, maybe you were just making an exaggerated macfanboy put-down. Cheers Billy 8-{) :D |

As regards the Transformer (Engadget link - although that's a Windows 8.x machine), I was rash enough to buy a TF101 (Android OS) a couple of years ago. Thought it looked like the bee's knees at the time. But I can probably count on two hands the number of times I have separated the screen from the keyboard and actually used it as a tablet. And I'm disappointed at how slow it is.... |
