For AMD it is more of tighter timings. I was trying to get too much from it.

I just need to step back on speed and tighten timings.

I'm just looking at it as an e-reader. They are fairly cheap and have some advantages if you have a kindle and amazon prime with the free book rentals.

I got one a few years ago for the same purpose and I enjoy it. It is what it is though, JUST an e-reader.

I already have an ipad, I just wish it was a little smaller so I thought maybe a smaller cheaper kindle.

Ereaders are awesome, we have a paperwhite.

Suggest you get one. I thought you meant as a tablet.

So I played some BF3 campaign last night and I'm pretty sure I'm going to blow on multiplayer. I'll have fun, though, as long as I'm playing with a group. It's sucking when you're playing alone that makes you not want to play.

i have the plain kindle from the last gen (no keyboard or backlight). It was a good purchase for 70 dollars at the time, but the paperwhites are freaking amazing. they look great, no need for a dumb lamp, and are a pretty good value. highly recommend.

I misread. I have a Nook, not a kindle. Not sure which one it is. My brother got it for me for my birthday a few years ago. My grandma has a Kindle Fire. It is cool and all but I'm not big on smaller tablets. I have a Xoom tablet.

Are there any good Mini-ITX mobos for Haswell yet? Thinking about downsizing.

your fine. i doubt you and an experienced Sys Admin with TC clearance would be looking for the same job. it might put some downward pressure overall though, but there are openings at all levels so i think your good.

now for people looking to get into security like me ...
