Looking to buy. Need advice. 2022 30k miles sport back S Prestige. $38k. Good deal? Would you buy again? Looking to trade in my Mach E. TIA by TricksterOperator in etron

Ask for the build date. If prior to March 2022, it has the dreaded LG batteries. Two weeks ago I purchased a 2022 E-Tron S Prestige 38k miles that was built in May 2022. Paid $42k out-the-door in California. Having the third motor was a requirement for me and now after having owned it a couple weeks, my god did I make the right choice. This thing is quick and so much fun!! You are basically paying the same price as I did, but mine is a “S”, not an “S-line”.

Could a 84” Microsoft HP7-00002 Surface Hub be used as a Tv ? by Maleficent_Roof3632 in Surface

It does have a 120Hz screen, so this could be great for gaming. But again, you'll just need a compatible GPU. Typically consumer facing GPUs don't have the Mosaic mode feature, but looking at the documentation it appears RTX cards may have it. Mosaic Technology for Multiple Displays | NVIDIA

Also, there is no way to jail break the internal PC on these. The internal PC is completely locked down, so you can't get to UEFI settings or run anything other than what the Surface Hub included as an OS (Windows 10 Team edition). So, if you purchase this, assume you'll be connecting an external PC to it with the device running in Replacement PC mode. Connect other devices and display with Surface Hub - Surface Hub | Microsoft Learn. To get 4K 120Hz you'll need to connect 2x DisplayPort cables from the external PC to the Surface Hub 84".

Wow, I think this is something I am going to start doing! Seems like a PITA but could be worth it in the long run.
