Off-Topic / Do you prefer traditional comics or graphic novels?

« on: December 08, 2012, 02:49:21 pm »Message ID: 654111

I like the graphic novel format because it covers all parts of a story arc and I don't have to wait for each weekly or bi-weekly comic.  What do you think?

Off-Topic / What do you think of Apple building a factory in the US?

« on: December 08, 2012, 02:35:02 pm »Message ID: 654097

Apple is building one factory in the US as a trial to make iMacs here.  They are spending $100 million which is one tenth of one percent of their total cash on hand.  Do you think this is enough or do you think they should do more?

Best tablet depends on what you use it for.  Check out the new Google Nexus which is good and low priced.  If you read a lot and have Amazon Prime, the Kindle Fire HD would be best.  iPad Mini is good, but not the best even though it is the most expensive.  These are all 7 inch tablets, so if you want a 10 inch, try the Samsung Galaxy Note or iPad.

Mine are Weekenders, Lloyd in Space and Static Shock.  I miss these from Saturday mornings.
From the evenings, I miss Pinky and The Brain.
