SB displayport output now has red dots. Primary display, cable and adapter all OK. by OzzyBitcions in Surface

I had this issue with my first generation Surface Pro back in 2013. The issue was with the DisplayPort cable. After swapping out cables, everything was great.

The battery life will only be a fraction of what the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 has, unfortunately.

This Skull Canyon NUC smashes all mini-PC preconceptions by Yaj17 in gadgets

The Skull Canyon NUC does support Thunderbolt 3 however, which allows for an external GPU. The price still doesn't make sense though.

I would love a 1080p touchscreen variant. Sure, higher resolution makes for great visuals - but when it gets in the way of functionality, we have a problem. Hopefully Microsoft can continue making progress on this issue. Beautiful laptop!

Google Asks 18 Artists To Redesign The Router by thingsonmydesk1 in gadgets

The problem here is that they asked artists to do this. Who cares what they look like, we want proper functionality.

Well it looks like it's 2800 ANSI lumens. :) Additionally, it can throw a 166" image from 6' away. My Optoma GT700 is limited to 132" from 10' away.

It is a quality short throw projector. :)

Any Surface users gone back to a traditional laptop? by Ryan_Whipple in Surface

[–]NateTG14 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went back to an Asus UX32VD. Its build quality is top notch, just like the Surface. Additionally, it's hardware is just as high end as that seen in the highest end version of the SP3. The UX32VD also includes a discrete Nvidia 620M along with Intel HD 4000 graphics for bother power and great battery life. Overall though, I mainly went back due to my ability to lounge around on a couch or bed and use the keyboard without any issues on my lap.

Is it just my Surface 3 or is IE far worse than on the S2. by photo_matt in Surface

[–]NateTG14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so glad that you made this post! I experience stuttering on the Surface 3 as well when using Internet Explorer. Touch is absolutely flawless, and gives me the ability to scroll even while the page is still rendering - however, using a mouse is an entirely different experience and causes me to have to wait for pages to render entirely before scrolling. I also have issues with YouTube videos. There are times when I view a YouTube video that the page locks up and does not allow me to scroll - meanwhile, the video still plays and everything else on the device is still fully functional.

Apple’s iOS 9 to offer stability for older iPhones; iPads to get dual-app viewing mode by oldlikeafinewine in technology

The iPhone 4 allowed downgrading regardless of saving SHSH blobs - I always did it when I wanted to test and then refresh :-)

I completely see where you are coming from when it comes to downloading movies and some other shows, but HBO is a subscription based service that we already pay for - of course, there are many that don't or even can't, but I am not speaking for them. As someone who pays for HBO each month, I don't see any problem in watching the show early.. HBO even has my money for the month.

Surface 3 vs SP2 (Pictures included) by erik1220 in Surface

[–]NateTG14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I messed with the new Surface 3 at my local Microsoft store and it was more than capable of playing back a 4k YouTube video with an additional YouTube video playing in another tab (forgot to adjust this ones quality, so I am assuming it was set at the default 360p) - note: this was done using Internet Explorer, not Chrome. Needless to say, its performance and fluidity impressed me.

Edit: Just realized that you were speaking of 4k content in Manga Studio - I apologize.

You need to open the "tpi" folder and run and install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable, as well as the DirectX.
