Surface Windows 8 Pro 128 GB Review Part 3 – Hardware
I had so many gripes about Windows 8 that I thought it would be prudent to keep my hardware and software thoughts separate. Here are my impressions on the hardware for Surface Pro. I can boil this down to two words. It’s nice. Every blog imaginable has written about...
Surface Windows 8 Pro 128 GB Review Part 2 – Software
Overall impressions: This is a device that should have come out 2 years ago. It feels like it’s behind because the tablet aspect of Windows 8 isn’t complete and it tries to trap me in the Microsoft/Windows universe. I mostly live in Google’s world now and there aren’t the...

Nexus 7 Review
Here’s another review courtesy of your average tech enthusiast. I’ve never liked the iPad. My main reasons are the locked down ecosystem, the size, the weight, and the cost. I don’t understand spending that kind of money for something that isn’t a real computer. Instead I’ve taken to first using...
My Samsung Galaxy S III Review
From Tech Stuff I’m a technology enthusiast yes, but, not always an early adopter. I just received my Samsung Galaxy S III phone from Verizon after two plus years of using an HTC Incredible. I loved the Incredible. The size of the phone was perfect for my pocket and...
