The Soviet Air Force, however, brought in new MiG 27 fighter-bombers and new SU-25 Frogfoot attack-bombers, roughly equivalent to the U.S. A-10 Warthog. The SU-25s were amazingly effective in making steep dives into narrow mountain valleys and canyons. Red Army mechanized units also upgraded the firepower of their tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, and armored personnel carriers, and the infantry now carried new AK-74 assault rifles.

The trackpad is equally good. It’s pretty big, has a smooth, precise surface and a solid click to it, as well as plenty of options to customise the experience. But there’s also a ThinkPad stalwart in the form of the little red nipple TrackPoint between the G, H and B keys, and three mouse buttons between the spacebar and the trackpad. I found little use for them except when on a train where the end of the keyboard was pressed up into my gut by the zero legroom blocking the trackpad.

Although I have to agree that Android is not ideal for this form-factor, and linux support seems to be an afterthought with XFCE here. But I imagine the hacker community who would use this could come up with a better distro in no time.

Other features include a 52 Whr battery, 802.11ac WiFi, and Qualcomm’s X16 Gigabit LTE modem. You’ll need to supply a SIM card to connect to LTE networks, and you may end up paying extra for data, depending on your wireless plan, (although Sprint, at least, is offering Windows 10 on ARM users some free data through the end of the year, and some carriers, like Project Fi, offer data-only SIM cards that tap into your existing plan for no additional fee… other than charges for any additional data you may use).

The 13in screen is bigger than you’ll find on the Surface Pro and the Eve V, and that makes it easier to use solo as a laptop. The screen itself is pin-sharp, colourful and just about bright enough to use outdoors. Movies look great on it, with good viewing angles, and while the bezels around the outside are quite large, they accommodate two front-facing speakers, a fingerprint scanner and a Windows Hello-enabled IR face recognition system.

The device has a fold-out ‘arm’ that the user holds near a suspected ‘offensive’ area. It takes 10 seconds for the gadget to sense a smell.

This is the kind of product that I wasn’t willing to go into a crowdfunding, because I don’t want to have a 1st-gen device, I’d like to wait to hear what complaints people have, and see if they are addressed in a 2nd-gen. However the Post-crowdfunding price is just too high for me. I guess I won’t be getting one.

Based on Spataro’s announcement and what Microsoft offers to customers through other plans – notably Windows Server’s Extended Security Updates – Windows 7 ESU likely will distribute security patches for vulnerabilities rated as "Critical" or "Important," the top two tiers in the firm’s four-step ranking system. The price may be steep: ESU for Windows Server 2008 runs 75% of the full license cost annually when the updates are deployed to on-premises servers.

"Instead [of] going to the doctor who says, ‘Let me draw blood and in three days I’ll call you if there’s anything wrong,’ the doctor can look and say, ‘Oh, I just checked all your blood over this last year, and it looks like your kidneys are good, your liver is good, I don’t see any indication of oncologic cells, pretty good, thanks.’ … We want to have a Tricorder where Dr. McCoy will wave this thing and say, ‘Oh, you’re suffering from Valerian death fever.’ And he’d then give some shot in a person’s neck and they’d immediately get better. We won’t do the shots — our partners will do the shots. But we’re hoping to build the Tricorder," he told Medium at the time.

Weighing in at 3.1 pounds and featuring a full-sized keyboard there’s no mistaking it for a tablet. Sure, you can pick it up and hold it, but it’s really too big to comfortably used as a handheld device for an extended period. Still, it’s nice to have the option of folding the screen part way back and propping up the computer in tent or stand modes when you’re watching videos, reading recipes, or viewing presentations.
