Got a nexus 6 on Verizon. Unlimited data I'll never give up out of principal. Can't complain. Coming from a moto x (2013) the size is crazy but you get used to it. Just like the ladies, they get used to the size after the initial shock.

After receiving a pretty nice sized gift card for Christmas, I finally decided to get a tablet. I got the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5". It's taking a bit of getting used to but it has great screen resolution and colors on it. One thing that I like is that it runs on the same android version as my phone so it's helped me with the transition. So far though I'm pretty happy with it.

The only thing that I don't like is that it only has 16GB of space on it, but I can increase that with a micro SD card to 128GB. Going to get that from Amazon, along with a case and maybe Bluetooth headphones.

Bluetooth headphones are nice - hard to find ones with good sound quality.

Thanks, I was going to ask if anyone had any suggestions.

My wife bought her dad a tablet for Christmas with Windows 8. I was tasked with setting it up. He had no email address and has never worked with computers. No smartphone. A total beginner at computers. It took me a long time for me to figure it out. The email address, local account and Microsoft live thing was giving me a hassle.

Once I figured it out it was pretty good. It is not as intuitive as the other tablet OS's but it has some advantages.

My wifes Asus tablet with Win 8 still gives me fits. I just don't like it.

I think my graphics card in my pc at home is starting to fail. It's been about 5 years since I upgraded though, so I suppose it's time.

I'm thinking I may as well just get a new motherboard, ram & cpu as well while I'm at it.

I'm thinking Asian girls are hot.

I won't disagree.

What if dog was spelled C.A.T.?

Anyways, I'm thinking I'll go with:

cpu - i5 4690k
mobo - asus z97-a
ram - 2x 8gb corsair 1600 ddr3
gfx card - nvidia gtx 970
