New laptop

Just ordered an Acer Iconia.  I wonder how it'll work with X1 Console view...

    Wow Karyn!! Impressive looking laptop. It's always exciting to get a new rig and especially this one with all the touch screen technology. You'll have to post back on how this works with X1 (especially the touch screen app). Very nice indeed!!
    What are the specs on this?

      Do these creatures wear clothing and are they bi-pedal? I think we have quite a few large ones native to the East Coast. They make noises almost like english. I suspect they are like parrots and repeat what they hear.

    Have you ever tried hunting or trapping one … they’re very elusive.

    They look kinda’ like this but smaller and the males have large mammalian protuberances.

    Becan & Bapu (i.e. Bapsi, Bapsimus, StupidFace, Eduardo) are all you really need to know.

    The rest just falls into place after awhile.

      I would be interested to see how that setup works with X-1 as well.  A person could load their Sonar files into it and work with them anywhere. I would be willing to bet though that it may need a tweak or two in order to work best with Sonar as a DAW. I have never owned a DAW yet that didn't need some tweaking for audio work.

    In my opinion HP is the leading laptop brand. There are a lot of HP laptops available in the market for business, study etc. I have HP Pavilion DV6516TX that comes with lots of great characteristic. I really like to use these laptop.

    You don't have an opinion, you spam for other people that tell you too.

    Anyway 'mine's better than yours' posts belong in the X1 forum, not here.

    They usually migrate from the surrounding states at certain times of the year.  Some of them even get their own "reality" Shows.

    Quite an impressive lappy!!

    I'm interested, among other features, to know if it's actually possible to write documents with it fluently - not to mention ten-finger-system. I find it very hard to believe, because there's no sensation of hitting the right key, or you need to re-learn typing.

    Please tell us your user experiences, using SONAR and otherwise, when you've gotten that far.
