Sure, but can it do the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs?

I always wondered why the time got shifted so badly when on battery backup.

It's actually just a registry flag for the software. For a normal consumer though? That's rough. As said below, someone loses one of the cds or dvds... or the USB drive gets lost/overwritten etc.

One backup in one location is not enough. If it was an online backup, perhaps. And I guess you could be smart and just make an iso out of the dvd and save, but it's one more step that just lends itself to not being done by a consumer.

I honestly think there should be some way for the manufacturers to provide the images as a value add in either a support contract or as a one time support charge.

HP is even more fun with this. they'll let you back up to either a USB stick or a set of CDs ONCE. Then lock you out from ever backing up that partition again.

There are ways around this, but it's still annoying.

Exactly this. I ride a motorcycle from time to time - usually on the weekends for recreation, but occasionally to work. When taking the car, I'd much rather have a car that handles the commute for me. I could re-gain 2 hours of work or relaxation.

In order to charge a battery, the charger needs to provide higher voltage to put in current - otherwise, no charging occurs. Even with a "separate" loop, you'll have a higher potential (voltage) at the terminals when charging/plugged in; ergo a higher voltage provided to the phone even if the battery is degraded. This higher voltage will be slightly higher than the peak nominal voltage of a "fresh" battery, so it should trigger higher performance if the phone is just looking at a simple voltage state.

Well, we could just remove the batt... oh wait.

Even when I had dial up, I had a local file server that I wanted fast access to.

Was this a Rick and Morty reference lol

Why would I buy another HP if they refused to help once? Plenty of fish in the sea (not that there might be a better option...)
