Anyone know of a good solution to get a solid 24 to 30 hours on a notebook without access to AC. Are there any external batteries or mobile chargers that don't cost an arm and a leg that could guarantee lots of extra screen time in the wild?

Hell-o everybody! The question is in the title. "How many hours do you get from your notebook battery?" I was a little surprised to get almost 9 hours from mine yesterday It's the Acer E15 i5 7200u (E5-575G-53VG) Been trying to condition the battery by running it down then topping it up when...

I think there's an older thread about this somewhere. There might be more than one come to think about it. Anyway what does your current desktop look like? Mine is a mess at the moment after losing my fast desktop tower to an OS update glitch.

Which TV commercials do you wish would just go away? I absolutely can not stand those "call the addiction help line NOW" TV ads. The latest Verizon dropping the mic commercials are also irritating in my opinion. So feel free to jump in with your un-favorites :)

Just a discussion for fun... Question: Do you deny that the internet runs your life? Are you in control or does the web control you?

I'm on an old T-Mobile 5GB (unlimited) legacy plan. Since I don't work or travel much my data use is what I would say is nil. How about you folks? Do you devour mobile or Wi-Fi data like tyrannosaurs?

I would like to pose this question: Is it possible for a mobile device platform to be successful without developed 3rd party apps?

I'm close to buying an ACER brand notebook. Before jumping however I was wondering if anyone here had knowledge of notebooks that could be upgraded with better processors and dedicated mobile graphics cards after buying. Far as I see currently it seems notebooks are somewhat a throw away if you...

My most often used feature of any smartphone I've owned has always been the camera. I was always one who really enjoyed manual shooting in years past which mostly proved pleasurable before the digital age. Thinking about this I started wondering if my smartphone camera had made me a better...

I ask because a few neighbors, friends and former bosses of mine were clueless about anything to do with phones or PC's. So do you like to help others outside of the web or these forums when it comes to their confusion about today's technology? Are you good at it if it's not your actual day to...

Do you use a different OS outside of WM/WP for your daily activities? Are you forced to use another OS for your job or business? If you are using another platform for daily needs is it pleasing to return to WP/WM at the end of the day? Is your situation "a tale of two cities" or are you a one...

Out of any brand what would be your favorite or the brand you have had the best luck with? I'll use any of the top names as long as I can get a great deal. So what names do you stick with?

No or Yes? Got mine a year after release. I paid about $285.00 USD for a T-Mo version. I've always wondered why it didn't sell better among Windows Phone fans early on. Maybe the 930 was the downfall. Still the 925 is the leader as far as style.

I think there's an old thread about this somewhere... Thought it might be fun to know what our wide ranging memberships native language is. If possible it might be interesting to have you type out something also if you'd like to. I'm native english (US) a very bland dialect that can range from...

Which type of phone user are you? Do you toss your device around without regard? Or are you obsessive, constantly cleaning looking for damage? Does a scratch across the screen bug you or could you care less as long as it gets the job done? Personally I despise any damage. If I know it's there...

Hi there Dan. What is your office looking like these days? Are you using the latest and greatest on your desk?

I wanted to get a dual SIM phone. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DV48PCQ/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1NHK9HCINT1BP&coliid=IXIJYGJGY046P&tag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUwpUvbUpU3610995 Hoping this might be a great option since I returned the 640XL I bought. That phone was just too...

Hey my good friends! Anyone here using a feature/dumb phone for back up, throw away or secondary use. Any recommendations from you folks? I was looking at one to use with a SIM I have that has thousands of prepaid (T-Mobile legacy no data) minutes on it. This would be for those situations...
