Hey Wolfie!
What puts me off is the price! not that I am mean or anything, but for those bucks it has to jump up and hit me in the face with benefits and features?
Right now, all I can think of is that if I win the National Lottery, I will have one wall mounted in all three Johns
I am afraid that I am rather cautious with "new technology" when I suspect it is more based on marketing than functionality.
On a lighter and somewhat unrelated note, I was buying a few components the other day, and I noticed that the online store had some "special offers"
Yeah, I know................ so I got 4 of these 4-port USB hubs at £0.50 each...........hell that's only around $4 (CND)?..............excellent buy as it happens.
Then there were these "webcams" (USB) at £0.99.............. so I bought 2.
I met one of my fellow IT support types in the pub and traded one for a pint of beer (£1.90), I then set up a screen on the carpet in my living room............(with the other one)
My old tom cat came in and saw an "intruder" so he goes to give it some...........then he sees it is a computer screen........and the "intruder" does exactly what he does
I guess that he remembered me killing aliens back when he was a kitten and we lived down in London?..............every now and then he would go round the back to see if "Daddy had hunted something edible!")
Totally useless bit of kit, but at that price I got my money's worth in 10 minutes
But $500 is serious money..........not for a laugh?
