Don’t get me wrong Apple computers are great, thinking of going there myself.
Windows has become a pain with all the security nonsense.
I’m just dammed disappointed with the iPad, glad i didn’t buy it with my own money.
Would be spitting feathers.

When Mr. Bill (my SUV) is properly working again next week, I will, indeed, check out Samsung as it sounds like something I need. I need a keyboard that doesn’t detract from the screen. My Nook has that capability and I don’t like it.

lol.

A few years ago the quality of translations on foreign shows, like K-Drama’s I enjoy, were very very bad. Sometimes I wonder if they had resurrected Babelfish or if the translator only spoke one language and it wasn’t English or Korean. lol.

Oops,
But it is all part of the fun.

As long as the Mouth is out of sync with the Sound and the Subtitles are reasonable, any Wushi movie is good to go.

Geron, do you need any more heat where you are?
I can FedEx it if you do, we’ve got far to much of it at the moment.
Have a sneaking suspicion some of it could by yours anyway...
