What was wrong with 1st Jan 1970 ? :)

That's because it has a massive battery in it.

There's also a usb hub and hdmi out too.

I *do* like Win RT, once jailbroken. I still prefer my macbook though, I've never really been able to justify tablet usage.

My major gripe with the Dell (yes, I have one) is that - and I suspect this is true of all RT devices - it's not a tablet with decent low power suspend and instant on like android and iOS, so it runs out of juice quickly when in "suspend" mode. It's literally just locked down Windows 8 on ARM. So pretty much what would have happened on the desktop if TPM was accepted way back when.

Of course they're trying to bring it back again with this UEFI bollocks.

Yep, and it was pants, so they bought an equally half assed, but much more complete implementation of a posix subsystem called interix and rebranded it.

It was pretty good, but then again ... Windows NT

Chip & PIN has been designed to offload risk to the card owner.

Besides, it's broken, and has been for a while. Now they're using contactless cards for sub £20 purchases - sigh.

For $deities sake!

Keep to SI units.

Middle click: Different OS, sorry.
Clipboard: Oh wait ... it's a different OS, sorry.
FFM: I'm sure if you talk to the barman at your local hotel, you'll be able to sort out a FFM. Might cost you though.
Thunderbolt/HDMI: works fine for me, and I've got a random mini-displayport -> HDMI cable that now works with audio now I've upgraded from my old 2009 mbpro.

I've had a bunch of monitors (Maximum three at the last count, though I probably could do four if I wanted to cope with bazillion cables attached to my laptop) set up without problems:
1. Air Display
2. Lenovo DisplayLink monitor
3. Another DisplayLink Adapter on a wide range of monitors (VGA/HDMI/DVI)
4. DisplayPort/ThunderBolt -> HDMI
5. DisplayPort/ThunderBolt -> DVI

None have "reset" even once a day.

No.

That's just wrong.

Java isn't support on iDevices.

You must be confusing Java with Javascript. Which ... ... IS NOTHING TO DO WITH JAVA AT ALL.

Please hand in your geek pass to the DHS official and make your way to gitmo. Oh wait. They only do that for leakers...

For Great Justice?

Even that figure would be a revenue stream worth having.

Personally I only see adverts when I'm on a machine that doesn't run chrome and I stray off onto "consume this" type of sites. It's quite a shock seeing all the crap regular joe has to put up with.

Sounds like what you need is WPA Enterprise :P

Sigh.

Have you a hosts file to prove that?

You can jailbreak it. XDA Forums have a list of apps recompiled for it. You can also run powershell and .net apps.

You can jailbreak all winRT devices.
