| wrst | chris4585: hello | 19:08 |
|---|---|---|
| chris4585 | morning wrst | 19:12 |
| wrst | chris4585: afternoon... checking out the ubuntu tablet stuff | 19:13 |
| chris4585 | neat, I heard about it | 19:13 |
| wrst | i must say it looks interesting | 19:16 |
| wrst | wish i had a nexus device | 19:16 |
| wrst | i woudl try it out | 19:16 |
| chris4585 | I guess I would, I'm not really a tablet person | 19:22 |
| chris4585 | haven't really seen it yet though | 19:23 |
| wrst | it looks nice chris4585, but i'm a borderline tablet person | 19:47 |
| chris4585 | well.. if I can install native linux apps then I'd be sold | 19:48 |
| wrst | chris4585: that's what has me interested in it | 19:48 |
| wrst | i see skype on their app list | 19:48 |
| chris4585 | if I can install quodlibet I'd be happy | 19:49 |
| wrst | so makes me wonder if its a compatibility layerish kind of thing or maybe skype was compiled to run on arm | 19:49 |
| chris4585 | oh probably | 19:49 |
| chris4585 | in a video mark says "we have rich native applications" | 19:52 |
| chris4585 | so I only assume yes | 19:52 |
| chris4585 | alright he said it clearly, that makes it an easy decision for myself.. | 19:56 |
| chris4585 | I just wonder what the battery is like | 19:59 |
| wrst | chris4585: I really don't care as bad as that sounds :) | 20:34 |
| wrst | i want it | 20:34 |
| chris4585 | lol how does that sound bad? | 20:37 |
| chris4585 | oh, gotcha | 20:37 |
| chris4585 | well, I'd buy a nice android tablet, but I'd much rather have the capabilities to run native linux apps on tablets any day over poopie apps | 20:38 |
| wrst | yep me too chris4585, but android has some nice apps, but having the same apps on whatever device is very appealing | 20:45 |
| wrst | and they seem to adapt unity pretty nicely, its not just the desktop version on a touch device | 20:45 |
| wrst | but that would be a bit of an issue the native desktop apps aren't made for touch devices | 20:45 |
| wrst | but put ubuntu on a tablet and 10 days someone will have the google play store and its apps working on it :) | 20:46 |
| chris4585 | doesn't really bother me too much tbh about desktop apps | 20:47 |
| wrst | doesn't bother me terribly but I would understand that lots of users wouldn't | 21:02 |
| wrst | oh i played with a surface finally at staples over the weekend | 21:03 |
| chris4585 | nice, I've played with it too, its kind of nice, but I don't care about the whole windows eco system | 21:08 |
| wrst | yeah chris4585 my thoughts | 22:01 |
| wrst | i think the hardware is pretty good | 22:01 |
| wrst | the software is just so-so at best | 22:01 |
| wrst | but its also pretty much a 1.0 device | 22:02 |
| chris4585 | yeah | 22:16 |
| wrst | but its microsoft so yeah they will mess it up they seem to be everyone's whipping boy now | 23:59 |
