Lando Calrissian

Define “getting it right”.

I got to touch that rocket. Feels good, man.

Well, that was awkward. Auto-abort right before liftoff.

I’m not even going to bother with you.

Once you get used to a TrackPoint, you don’t go back. I was skeptical, and now I can’t stand to use a trackpad.

Lenovo’s new chiclet keyboard is fantastic, I’d take it over my T61 keyboard any day. It’s very, very good.

Aaaaaah my god I just came.

Finally. Now to replace my broken T61 (Nvidia, I’ll never forgive you for all those dud GPUs back in 2008) :D

Start your BitTorrents…

As far as I know you’ll need all of the AT&T bands to get 3G on their network, this has been the main problem with using a T-Mo phone on AT&T and vice versa ever since 3G got big. Personally I’d just go with the One X, you get a spectacular 720p SLCD screen, LTE, great battery life, and the same Snapdragon S4 under the hood. I’d take the One X in a heartbeat if I had to choose between them.

It definitely has serious performance increases, from what I’ve used of it. On my 4 year old ThinkPad it absolutely screams. I can get used to the new Start screen, especially considering the under-the-hood improvements.

For 3G on AT&T, it’ll need to support UMTS/HSPA on the 850/1900MHz bands. From what I’m seeing on Wikipedia, the One S is 850/900/2100MHz, so unless you’re fine with EDGE, you’d probably want to just go with the One X.

Samsung delivered on the specs but fell short when it came to design. Design-wise, it looks alright and that’s it. It’s not a phone that looks like a million bucks like the One X or the Lumia 900. I’d actually like for the US carriers to have their way with the design of it a bit like they did with the original SGS, because the Captivate on AT&T was a serious looker.

When was the last time you used WMP to play a DVD? If you can’t remember, then this won’t be a problem for you.

My physics class got to take a tour of their facility in Hawthorne last month. Definitely the coolest field trip I’ve been on in my life. It’s hard to put the size and complexity of a rocket into perspective until you see the machines they use to build these things. Felt like I was almost witnessing history watching them assemble Dragon capsules, considering these things are going to be the first private spacecraft to dock with the freakin’ ISS. I love space.

Absolutely. I’m fully torqued right now as well.
