I actually generally like Asus as well, I pretty much use them exclusively for my motherboards, despite my disappointment with their pricing schemes the past few years. I also have a set of their pro art monitors from a while back still going strong. I will say the recent horror stories of their customer service for pc parts has me a bit concerned but I have been lucky and have never had an issue with their stuff yet. Never tried a video card from them though.

As for tablets in general, reading comics in bed is one of the only things that makes me want to try a tablet again. However, whenever I remember that transformer it just re-ignites my hatred. 😆 One day my rage might subside but until then I’m done with tablets. I’ve actually considered my next phone to be a folding one to see if that can get the job done for reading comics in bed with the bigger screen.

Good! Motherboard prices have been wildly out of control for a while now. Asus selling 1k motherboards when that same tier of motherboard used to top out at 400 bucks max. Let these greedy fucks have their lunch.

As a fellow Asus Transformer survivor, I feel your pain! I’ve never actively hated a piece of tech as much and as fast as that pos. Pretty sure I downloaded that same update that basically made it so slow it transformed it into a paperweight. I have never purchased another tablet after that because it turned me off to the whole idea permanently.

Holy shiit that has a name?! Every once in a blue moon, I’ll be just sitting minding my own business then BAM! Ass lightning like Thor stabbed me in the ass with a blade that has lightning wrapped around it. Then just as suddenly as it came, it’s gone…

I’ve called it ass lightning for the past few years. At least I know I’m not alone!
