40X of what?

Pardon the noob question, but I don't use Macs. What is Fusion software?

Abode? I think you mean Adobe. Which Adobe suite runs native on ARM?

Moving so fast, I agree. But at some point, the normal product life cycle will resume. (I am assuming.) If I am assuming right, then are we 12 months from that point, 18? 24? More than 24? Yeah, I may need a bigger PSU. Right now, I'm rocking 850 watts of Seasonic.

Agree. Why? Aside from MS Office, all my applications are from other software vendors. Hey, for all those vendors, it comes down to the business case. Unless you a MacOS specialty shop, you do Windows and maybe MacOS.(y) Chrome, can't. Linux at 4%, is it going to be profitable? Most...

Just occurred to me that my next upgrade should have a decent amount of local processing power. I am a heavy Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop user, and Adobe has been steadily adding AI and features for processing images. I shoot RAW, for the quality and flexibility of resulting "developed"...

Yeah BUT. How many people run Windows? Compare that with the number of people on [H] or better yet, the number of people in this thread, not all of whom want Linux on the desktop. Me, I've used UNIX on an off since the 1980s in different jobs. I'm no MS fanboy, but I really like the Windows...

I think there is a good reason. Microsoft is using both carrots and sticks to get peolple to move from 10 to 11. Unfortunately, 11 has very few carrots. Not supporting phone sync on 10 is a stick, or at least they think so. It's probably a resource issue. Microsoft has a lot on its plate...

My wife sometimes asks me why I "need" so many USB cables. I hate that USB 3 has two different device-end connectors. NIH on the part of some members of the "standards" committee? A camel is a horse designed by a committee. Old saying. What he said here.

Yeah Don't go there

Which one would you recommend? Will never be, or it will lose the power that makes it attractive for developers and IT admins.

Why is that a "problem" for Microsoft and not a clear business advantage? But Linux on ARM is becoming more significant...

Well, that sucks. OK, but apparently you CAN get the new Microsoft Phone Link for Win 10. And the new Phone Link works only for Android phones, not iOS.

Thanks for the link. But, for some strange reason, the Phone Link works only for Android and some other Samsung phones, and not iPhones. Like I said, for some strange reason.

Replying to my own post, I feel that I've been screwed over by Apple on this issue, bad. This non-upgrade is completely self-serving, since they do both the OS and the hardware.

Outlook on iOS? How well does it work?

Sync between Outlook on Windows 10 and Calendar and Contacts on iPhone? What's your secret???? For me, it used to work, using iTunes. No longer. I've tried at least 3 third-party utilities. One requires some weird second copy of contacts or calendar. Another one completely messed up my...

Like which OS's? And why?

I will "cave" when Win 12 comes out, and then I'll wait a few months.

So here and there on these forums (e.g. https://hardforum.com/threads/microsoft-stoops-to-new-low-with-ads-in-windows-11-as-pc-manager-tool-suggests-your-system-needs-repairing-if-you-dont-use-bing.2034990/#post-1045885323) you read that Macs have lower TCO and support cost than Windows PCs...

Not to hijack this thread, but what about 4TB versions from the same vendors?

After all, look at Linux desktop market share, all distros lumped together. With top management support? Or they are simply clueless? Zombies. And what is the reaction from those users?

Manufactured in China, by a company based in Taiwan or elsewhere? Or designed in China by a company under the thumb of the CCP? An understatement if I ever saw one!!!

On what basis are you calling BS? Not trying to start an argument or trolling. Just trying to learn something new.

Now there needs to be some way to get this info out to all WOW's subscribers. Since my only real alternative where I live is AT&T, I'm sticking with Comcast. That said, I will be doing some research on cord-cutting, and alternative provider for TV service. My wife watches more TV than I do...

My comment was about AliExpress as an online store. According to comments, lots of crappy products and/or unethical manufacturers, for which we often roast Amaxzon.

It not like he has a remote job, or anything like that. :p

And yet many other people praise the Tomahawk as a great product. Can both of these statements be true at the same time?

Why do you say that?

I'm also interested. In my house. we have old Roku sticks on each (old) television. Also trying to convince my wife to upgrade to 4K TV. I thought I would get new 4K Roku sticks, but I'm open to something else. How would you configure these devices w/r/t TV, etc.. Heard too many bad things...

Are we all done with this thread? Anything more to say? I can't even carry Zarathustra[H] 's bags, but I think I can say with confidence that we aren't going to see new HEDT boards any time soon. I wish it was otherwise, but we all need to be realistic. Maybe my next motherboard upgrade...

This is a very interesting analysis, and not one that I would expect to find in most places. But to be clear, I'm not a hardware professional. I'm just an Average Joe hobbyist. Zarathustra[H] I'm curious as to how you came to your conclusions here. (No shade intended, just honest curiosity.)...

What he said. Plenty of bad actors out there.

This is a serious assertion. Do you have any evidence, even circumstantial. I'm not trying to defend ASUS here, but I want to tease out fact from surmise.

Just wondering. I seem to recall reading somewhere that ASUS sells more boards to OEMs to guys like us, . Does ASUS supply roughly the same motherboard designs for its OEM customers as it does for retailer to sell to guys like us and small custom builders? And what motherboards in its own...

Probably the most important thing said so far in this thread.+1

I could almost be called an ASUS fanboy, since I have bought ASUS boards almost exclusively for at least 20 years now. But this thread raises a question for me that will be very important in 12-18 months, when I upgrade my rig again. Among the other major motherboard makers. which has the best...

Maybe the guy managing their RMA facility is just a flaming a--h--- who keeps his job because he doesn't go over budget. And the corporate mucky-mucks don't know about all the crap around RMA. So how do you their attention? Write a letter in Chinese, sent to headquarters in Taiwan, addressed...

Has been true for me, but the next time I need to upgrade my rig,I will look carefully at their 3 main competitors.
