For the record I don't think iPhone 5 is as good for rotation now either. You got your choice of super tall or super wide. Neither optimal.

Surface is not particularly usable when rotated but any 16:9 tablet would have that issue. So wide and narrow! 4:3 way better for rotation.

So haptic force feedback on a tablet means dynamically changing the level of friction on the screen: http://t.co/HgzhejHn

Latest Chromebook has great hardware for the price, still terrible in use. Hard not to see ChromeOS project as doomed. Returning mine.

Chrome on the Android based Nexus 7 is outperforming a Chromebook with 2x the CPU power and RAM ... why do we need ChromeOS again?

Chromebook is all but unusable on pages like http://t.co/OT0PBN4t and http://t.co/sNizaooa ; ok-ish on Nexus 7; glassy smooth on Surface RT

The other bummer thing about Chromebooks: Chrome on Linux just isn't very good. (Scroll perf, animations, font rendering, etc.)

My current feeling is that Chrome OS and Chromebooks are better as Enterprisey devices for locked down intranets than as consumer devices.

the chrome OS youtube, gdrive, google search "apps" on the launcher just.. launch browser tabs. Why can't I put twitter in there?

what's the difference between a website as an "app" and an "app" from the Chrome Web Store, again? This makes zero sense.

Chrome OS is neat, but it is kinda confusing. How do I add a website to the launcher? Drag and drop doesn't work.

@codinghorror Actually, the iOS weather IS dynamic. It changes between 23° and 73°, depending on your region settings. Booyah.

and my personal favorite, the weather app icon that has shown 73 degrees and sunny every single day since June 29, 2007. IN HELL MAYBE.
