I feel sorry for dentists. Whenever I see them, they are looking down in the mouth.

At least she's going/gone! I refused the chair for nearly 20 years based on abject fear caused by a feckin stupid torturer. As a result I have had to face up to 3 teeth out, 2 root canals and another 12 teef to be filled!

So, this Banker Exec goes deer huntin’ for the first time.
Just off the road, he sees a deer, fires, hits and it goes down.
A Fish & Game Conservation Officer (CO) just happened to be nearby.
Banker shot a female and not male like he’s s’posed to.
So, the CO writes him a ticket & takes the deer.
Banker Exec shows for his court hearing.
Judge asks, “Why did you shoot the wrong animal?”
“Well, Your Honor,” replies, the Exec, “I’m a Banker. A buck and dough are the same to me.”

Expen$ive !
I like the specs of the new Surface Book, and Surface Pro 4 ... of course, that like is not based on actually getting my fingers on one, yet. Being both cheap and diligent in terms of hardware purchases, I would always wait at least several months after some new epiphany arrives, and look for in-depth reviews on Toms' Hardware, AnandTech, (yes, even CNet) etc., as well as any first-person accounts here on CP.
Given I believe that Win 10 is still in beta, and will be until spring, 2016 (minimum), and (for now) appears to have been designed with intransigent (not removable) intrusion into my privacy in terms of: user-activity being monitored and reported to Sauron is neither explicit, or de-fangable ...
Well, pause is.
And, I think about the fact that here (in northern Thailand) the displays of the Surface 3 in the super-stores always look rather plain-and-puny compared to the displays of small-form-factor computers from Samsung, Acer, Lenovo, etc. ... So few people ever seen tickling the MS devices' keyboards or mouse-pads (which, of course, is very much an outcome, here, of said devices being more expensive, as well as not looking "cool").
While zing, fizz, and eye-candy shock-and-awe, don't float my boat, my one session where I actually played around with a Surface 3 Pro left me with a "never buy that one" dismal feeling.
Yet, as someone who develops (or, at least goes through the motions in retirement of developing) for Win, I wouldn't mind the idea of buying a small form-factor, portable, machine from Sauron.
And, that will never happen until I see value and quality for money-spent in an MS device compared to other companies' devices. For me, with rapidly diminishing eyesight (thanks, old age), that means quality of screen display; for me, as speed-typist (thanks, mom for forcing me to go to typing school when I was 11 years old after my teachers told her my hand-writing looked like Aztec pictographs written by someone drunk), that means touch-and-feel responsiveness of the keyboard. For me, as wanna-be hermit who would happily wear an indivisibility cloak (stops divide-by-zero attempts cold) as well as an invisibility cloak (internet-socially speaking), that means an OS that does not put ads in a start menu, and moon-light as yet another facet of Sauron's all-seeing eye.
If Sauron doesn't whip-blend-and-puree its OEM-partners in demonicity into bankruptcy one way or another, perhaps the one really good thing about MS putting out devices is that it will drive said partners to produce better machines at lower prices ?
Would that be too much to ask ?
cheers, Bill

While I like the convenience of a tablet, Samsung, I could not relate that to development other than testing for that platform. I will always want 2 screens and as much grunt as possible in the development box, preferably a desktop.

As the K-9 officer approached the house with his dog on a leash, the blonde ran out on the porch, shuddered at the sight of the cop and his dog, then sat down on the steps.

TERMINAL DEGREE
A blonde goes into the beauty and hair parlor with her walkman on her head.
"I need to take that walkman off your head," says the beauty specialist as she notices the blonde.
"You can't! I'll die!" retorts the blonde.
"I can't cut your hair with the walkman on your ears!" says the beauty specialist getting annoyed.
"I said you can't take it off, or I'll die!"
The beauty specialist, outraged and flustered, grabs the walkman and throws it off the head of the blonde. Within seconds, the blonde dies. When the specialist picks up the walkman to listen, she hears it repeating "... inhale, exhale, inhale...".

Walkman? How *old* is that joke?!

On the ride home I had plenty of zombies with their brain pacemakers firmly plugged in. The walkman and tapes may be history now, but somehow the joke is more fitting than ever.
Edit: Just looked it up - the walkman went out of production in 2010, not so long ago.
