You probably want to go bigger if you want to code from the couch. I have a computer hooked up to a 56in 1080p TV in my living room for games. If I am browsing the web I normally zoom in quite a bit in order to read things easily. My cou

Which is why I bought a black and white laser printer 10+ years ago. Never need to worry about the ink drying out. I am still on the starter toner. Not sure if I will be able to buy toner when it runs out, but it still works even with Wi

What is good about en_CA? Do you just want colour in spell check instead of color? I have always left my machines in en_US to avoid any bugs due to strange keyboard mappings/layouts and general paranoia that things only get tested wh
