Hi Sam, I like your TRS-80 'avatar' there. I was a model one but mostly mod III user/experimenter. Just threw a Mod III in the dumps two weeks ago...

Nexus 7 General Discussion / Re: Hardware is free, software is the profit center and advertising« on: July 08, 2012, 09:45:18 AM »
It wasn't always such... 'In the beginning' Apple was open like all blossoming software/hardware start-ups. Gradually, Apple became more and more proprietary until now, where a program is written that can be run on a variety of machines made by any vendor or even kluged together from spare parts, and then there is the special code which must be re-written each time, to run on an Apple. Personally, on principle, I will never own an ipad, ipod, ifone, or any other 'i' product no matter how easy and fun they are purported to be. At this point, Apple is antithetical to open source and to a free internet.

Very good... OK, I'm just going to get to know my stock N7 for a while before making any big changes. Now if I can just resist the urge to load it up with every new app that comes along...

Nexus 7 General Discussion / Bloatware?« on: July 07, 2012, 09:26:34 AM »
I've had a few Android phones but this will be my first tab. I wonder how much software will be pre-loaded on the N7 that is not meant to remove. I guess that anything can be removed if the tablet is rooted (?) But all of my phones eventually seemed to slow way down the longer I owned them. I'm sure that was mostly my fault from loading them up with various software but I'm hoping I can keep from doing that with the Nexus 7. I don't think it matters whether I got the 8 or 16, either way one could easily blog it down with too many programs, correct?

Yeah Hi Ross,
I think we'll all dig our new tablet, when it finally arrives! Looks like this is the right place to learn all the 'hints and kinks' of the N7. Hope it's not too boiling hot in Dallas... Ross in Morro Bay aka: radio
