My mrs Laptop just died and now she's using mine and I'm at risk of having her discover the mountains of material on here that I shouldn't have.
Any advice on what to get, all she does is watch youtube and stalks people on Facebook.
I want cheap and reliable and cheap. Maybe even a tablet but I hate Apple.
Mini pad APPLE $475.00 wifi only awesome
You will have to shout the bit about hating Apple Savage. The old fella didnt hear you.
Now Pengy your just being obnoxious :thumbsup: BUY A Fffffffffiiiiinnnnngggg APPLE. Of course being a female she probably has the ability to MULI-TASK so maybe she can get used to all the crap of an ANDROID!:thumbsup:
And of course, she will want it in Pink Maca. Savage1 you have another laptop. Let your wife play on that and then you can talk about the first thing that pops up.
Thanks for compliment Maca. I dont know what obnoxious is, but I' m sure it is something nice.
Yep it's has a really nice meaning:ORLY:
Generally electronics don't come in cheap and reliable.. But how cheap?Quote:

And with Samsung she can get tv on demand, unlike all the other android based jobs
A guy at the pub was selling cheap ones, they just didn't have a box that's all...
If they didn't have a box they'd be of male gender!:D buy her an IPAD, geeze my 92 year old mother in law uses one, :cool:
Don't get Apple
Get an APPLE!
+1 iPad mini.
No wonder he shoots 10s!:cool:
Yeh, I heard he could get you a fairly cheap car as well Moonhunt.Quote:

It isn't in the cheap category but worth looking at a surface or surface pro.
Fuck man make a decision and buy the bloody Apple, with an IPhone 5 and the new wrist watch for her that read out her texts etc, move up to 2014!

Take a deep breath and remember your not buying it for you.
That's all most people say they use the internet for, reality is often different. I hardly use my iPad since I got an iMac, and before I got that I still used my laptop for iTunes, photo management and downloading etc. Different strokes I suppose!Quote:

Steve Jobs the man that changed the world for the better!:thumbsup:
Jobs was clever allright. He convinced a huge chunk of the population to own something essentially the same as everyone elses, when people were busy trying to be individuals.
