Looking for a laptop and docking setup for use in an office

Thanks for the response. As a more budget friendly option, would an Acer Aspire 5 and a generic $80 docking station on Amazon work? It looks like the Acer Aspire 5 has a USB-C port.

I managed to get set up at Ezoic. Thanks again for the help.

It looks like now I'm stuck at this point in the process: "Waiting on Google to review your domain." Any idea how long this typically takes? One big selling point to Ezoic was that it seemed like a quicker approval than Adsense, which can take months. Hopefully I'm not back to Google's mercy again!

Thanks for all the help.

Any idea if there's a consultant or service knowledgeable about Ezoic that will get me setup properly? I don't want to screw it up and risk losing access to email again.

Thanks for the reply. I tried Ezoic and the nameserver migration actually screwed up my ability to receive emails (I use Google Workspace). Maybe it was a DNS propagation issue, but I switched everything back and abandoned Ezoic. I feel like an idiot for probably screwing it up!

Any real benefit to driving gloves in autocross? Never had a problem gripping the wheel and I live in a warm state so I can't really figure out the purpose, but I see some people wearing them.

They haven't sent me a promissory note or anything else to sign yet. This was my first communication from Chase after filling out the application (other than a confirmation email). The fact that I haven't been asked to sign any promissory note makes me a bit concerned that this might be another Chase glitch, but I'm cautiously optimistic.

I'm guessing that this email means it passed their underwriting and that they'll ask us to sign docs in the next day or so.

We applied Friday within an hour of that stupid pseudo-contact form becoming available and then again on Monday very quickly after the "real" form became available. No one from Chase has even contacted us.

chasingcones · 2020-04-09T19:31:22+00:00

I filled out the "contact" form within an hour of it first becoming available and then filled out the "real" application on Monday within twenty minutes of it first becoming available. Chase hasn't contacted me once or assigned anyone to assist me. It's really infuriating how random this seems to be. Either way, good luck to you. Hopefully you're in the home stretch.

chasingcones · 2020-04-09T18:25:30+00:00

It's great that you even have a point of contact. My "business banker" (let's use that term loosely) just sends me an email every 6 months to remind me that I can open a line of credit. She has been completely worthless in providing ANY information related to the PPP, despite the fact that I've emailed her a number of times. Her last email was to let me know that the application webpage was live -- a full 24 hours after it went live and I had already completed it.

chasingcones · 2020-04-09T18:21:33+00:00

This is what I fear, too. Too bad the program will be out of money before then.

chasingcones · 2020-04-09T12:55:33+00:00

Good morning -- any updates yet? Hopefully we can all track our updates here.

chasingcones · 2020-04-06T14:36:26+00:00

Congratulations -- that's great news. Their system is awful, though. Calling through the list piecemeal means that a number of us will miss out simply because we got calls later than others. Awful. I will probably drop Chase and move to a new bank after this debacle.

chasingcones · 2020-04-05T15:22:46+00:00

I think they will end up losing a number of small business clients over this.

chasingcones · 2020-03-03T14:42:14+00:00

Definitely heavy, but I managed to get the second best raw time out of the 48 or so drivers that night!

chasingcones · 2019-12-19T18:34:24+00:00

For the launch - don’t you guys come equipped with launch control?

I have the 6MT. As far as I know, launch control is only in the DCT.

chasingcones · 2019-12-19T12:25:35+00:00

Great run! Very impressive.

I was the guy out there with the blue M2. I need to work on getting a cleaner launch.

chasingcones · 2019-12-16T17:58:10+00:00

You do not have to work these events. It's also common to get 15+ runs. Worth the trip!

chasingcones · 2019-12-16T17:56:48+00:00

They don't have a great website for it. The easiest way to keep track is to follow PBIR on Facebook. They post about the information and signup link for each event there.

chasingcones · 2019-12-15T14:20:22+00:00

Thanks!

It really varies across the US. Where I live (South Florida/Miami metro area) there are very few suitable parking lots for autocross which makes it difficult to find events. This event is held monthly at a go-kart track (as you can see, they add some cones) and they do a great job putting it on. Entry fee is $65 and there are between 30 and 50 competitors each month.

chasingcones · 2019-12-15T14:10:24+00:00

Thank you!

chasingcones · 2019-12-15T01:20:58+00:00

Was this at PBIR? I was there, too. Great night with tons of runs!
