The 2 battleground are in the 5.1 legendary chains.
and it is 2 specific battlegrounds.
and i hated it...
This week:
1:40 - How memorable will Tier 14 be?
7:02 - Would adding a penalty to reforging make the system more interesting?
11:50 - How much do I need to spend to get a PC that runs WoW well?
16:41 - Will Blizzard try to push people to stop playing WoW when Titan releases?
20:49 - How do you feel about talents that directly affect your rotation?
27:08 - Now that we have LFD and LFR, should attunements be brought back?
33:57 - Is it a good idea to force PvE players into PvP for the 5.2 legendary?
40:29 - Is it better to buy valor pieces if you're only running LFR?
The 2 battleground are in the 5.1 legendary chains.
and it is 2 specific battlegrounds.
and i hated it...
Regarding the point you're making around the 30:00 mark ... I remember spamming trade LFG - Jail Break.
I think you're right on with making it a scenario activity to open attunement. IF blizz wanted to walk down that road again.
The other thing about rings and necks - iLevel 489 pieces in these slots are available from the final quests at Exalted for Klaxxi and Golden Lotus without the need for any VP spend. Better to grind out exalted (you're already at least Revered, right?) than to burn VP.
Anyone running LFR "has access to" an iLevel 483 item in each slot, but the chances are they've not dropped in each slot yet. We have a small chance that each boss will drop something each week, and then on the rare occasions it does an even chance it won't be the item we want it to be. There's going to be a lot of people who've run LFR each and every week, and burned charms, and still not filled every slot with iLevel 483 purples. It's one thing to math out that 483 + buying upgrade > buying 489, but quite another thing when people only running LFR probably still have 463 blues in some slots. For those people, buying the 489 now is a lot more appealing than hoping RNG will finally drop the missing epics.
The concept of using VP to fill a slot that RNG has been unkind to you is a different one. Upgrading being better is actually contingent on RNG filling all your gear slots with a 483 piece, which is far from realistic given the current loot system in LFR I would argue that taking the RNG out of the situation and replacing a 463 with a 489 VP piece is an acceptable choice being that in the long run doing so might cost you one upgrade down the road, I think it's worth the gamble. I do how ever encourage not making the choice til being Valor capped forces you to. We all know the minute you give up on something dropping it drops that week .
Always cracks me up to read over the 'menu' for PST after enjoying a good ramble or rant from Lore, I add the short answers in my head:
1:40 - How memorable will Tier 14 be? - Not very
7:02 - Would adding a penalty to reforging make the system more interesting? - No
11:50 - How much do I need to spend to get a PC that runs WoW well? - About $600
16:41 - Will Blizzard try to push people to stop playing WoW when Titan releases? - No, and dont be ridiculous
20:49 - How do you feel about talents that directly affect your rotation? - Good within moderation. Oh and Lore likes Paladins
27:08 - Now that we have LFD and LFR, should attunements be brought back? - No
33:57 - Is it a good idea to force PvE players into PvP for the 5.2 legendary? - No
40:29 - Is it better to buy valor pieces if you're only running LFR? - No, unless they are from the 5.1 rep vendors
while you can get a great new processor for cheap, if your computer is so old that it struggles to run wow at a high setting then chances are if you buy a new processor you will also need a new motherboard, new ram and a new case, and possibly a new graphics card depending on the slots on your new motherboard.
A cheap dell may be the way to go.
- Upgrade the head from 483 to 491.
- "Upgrade" the shoulders from 471 to 489, by buying a new piece.
In this case, upgrading the shoulders nets you a grant total of 18 ilvls, which is definitely better than the head upgrade. The question here is: What are you going to use it for?
If you're desperately trying to reach ilvl 470 so you can do more LFR, then yes, go buy yourself a new pair of shoulders. If not, upgrade the head. And here's why:
If all you do is LFR, then you left a piece from which you can get upgrades. For all you know your shoulders could drop next week, and then they're worthless because you have the valor shoulders. Since you are already clearing the instance, upgrading the better pieces, and hope that the weaker pieces will be replaced, will be better in the long run.
If you raid as well, there are very likely better items to upgrade than that LFR helmet, but even if you've been very unlucky, the same still applies. If you have 483 head and 489 shoulders, then they're both minor upgrades to 496. Do you spend your DKP/coins on that? On both slots? If you have a 491 head and 471 shoulders, your head is quite ok, and you only need to focus on your shoulders, being able to burn some DKP/coins on them, since you won't be needing them for the headpiece.
Instead of attunement quests, I would like to see the return of some of the more specific quests from Vanilla. I'm not talking about MC/BWL/Ony attunements.
What about the Paladin/Warlock mount quests?
What about the Druid shapeshift quests?
What about the Tier 0.5 questlines? In my opinion still the most interesting questline they put in the game, unfortunately gone nowadays. I found that a lot cooler than grinding JP/VP, walking up to a vendor and saying "Upgrade this, please!"
What about the Benediction quest?
What about the Atiesh quest that took you into Stratholme?
The focus was not on "You have to do this quest in order to continue to that part of the game, and if you don't do it, you won't be able to raid." but "If you want to go and do this entire questline, we'll have a special reward for you at the end."
If you don't have a 483 yet, it's better to save your valor and hope for one next week. If you run out of 483s to upgrade AND you're going to hit the 3000 valor cap, then it makes sense to buy a valor piece. But at that point, you should be buying a 496 from the 5.1 reps anyway, like I said in the show.
Ehm on the 2 bg's for 5.1 prismatic socket.. It took me around 5 hours to win 2 bg's(in PvP gear), my faction just sucked that day.. But on the flipside the getting to revered with black prince took me around 30-45 mins as a mage.
Not sure how getting revered with Wrathion was a pain, considering if you did the 5.1 content, you were well past revered by the end.
The BGs were for the 5.1 quests, not 5.2 (which we still know nothing about really, though some legendary token items were found this patch). They went fine for me in my pure raid gear, I just had to play knowing I was squishier, guarding others and waiting until I could burst the hell out of someone. They weren't easy games, but neither really punishes you for not having PvP gear.
Ignoring the fact that bots is an issue in bg's in general, and the overwhelming lack of communication / team play in bg's!
I can't stand LFR for the simple fact of the amount of directly bad players, and the amount of leeches.
I don't PvP at all, and haven't done since Tbc because it's not appealing to me at all, I can only imagine real PvP players getting the same feeling about me being put in a battleground for the legendary, as I show with 0 PvP items and no real motivation as to what the outcome will be of the fight for all of the above!
It's also entirely possible that I'll just opt out of the legendary in 5.2, because I do not like or even remotely enjoy participating in something where I'm more a ball n' chain around a teams ankles.
I can play my classes to a high degree, but not having any PvP gear already puts you at a significant disadvantage as well as hindrance on your team!
I didn't read this question the way you did. Ability creep is a relevant point, but he asked specifically about situations where talent A is designed to be better than talent B, but makes the rotation more clunky or harder. From a feral perspective, the only talent i know is the "Dream of Cenarius" talent. It increases the damage on my next two melee abilities after i use a Healing Touch. As feral i have a chance of making spells free, instant and castable in all forms (Predatory Switness, also the same talent that makes cyclone so easy to use as feral). This means Healing Touch now becomes a rotational ability, and it means I must plan when to use it to get the most effect out of it. Naturally I want to get a 25% boost to my most damaging abilities whenever possible. For optimal use I should also select a target for the healing (which is not insignificant btw, 70-100k or so per cast)
This talent is also just plain better than the other two in the tier, and it appears it was designed that way. For the cost of watching for an extra proc, plan when to use it, and an extra button on the action bar, you get rewarded with slightly higher damage output and just under 10k hps on targets you select.
This sounds alot like the topic discussed before MoP, doesn't it? With talents giving players a choice between an easy mode and a hard mode rotation. I was a sceptic before, but it seems it works out. People selecting the two other options in the talent tree are not frowned upon, perhaps because the rotation is a fairly complex one to begin with. Or because feral druids are just awesome people

Added to the patch notes for 5.2 this morning:
The cost of Valor Point gear introduced in patch 5.0 has been reduced by 50%.
The cost of Valor Point gear introduced in patch 5.1 has been reduced by 25%.
I can understand that they're not converting them over. If they would, then post 5.2, every freshly dinged 90 should farm the heck out of dailies to get revered with all factions at the same time, so he can buy all the items.
However, that also means it'll be a lot harder to catch up to the current content.
I am curious about retaining old VP items as VP items but at a reduced cost. They've hinted that new VP items may be gated behind 5.2 raiding rep.
If the gating is strict (like Firelands, so only real raiders get it), then the LFR players/alts will be left rather aggrieved, with only obsolete gear to buy, albeit at discount prices. The endgame for 5.0 and 5.1 - at least for alts and casuals - seems all about the VPs, so giving you no new shinies to buy with them would be demotivating and perverse.
If the gating is loose (so LFR gives you it), then I doubt people would buy the old VP stuff. With my alts, I fixate on item level and so prioritise the Shieldwall stuff, however imperfectly itemised. No way would I spend scarce alt VPs on something that was tuned for obsolete raids if there was an alternative use. (And no way would I run old LFRs on alts if there was anyway by hook or crook I could get into current ones.)
It does, however, mean that you can start to buy VP items in your first week of being level 90, instead of in the second.However, that also means it'll be a lot harder to catch up to the current content.
Well what I'm reading into this is the crafters now have a use to craft all that beginner PVP gear again as it'll probably sell out quick. WOOT!
I mean I used to run Tol'Barad over and over again with no PVP gear on. Sometimes we won sometimes we lost. I don't see this becoming a huge issue. Of course the QQ'rs will hop on the forums and go bonkers over it. But in the end I don't seeing this as a game stopper by any means.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are exited to tip off their 2012-2013 college basketball season. The Fighting Irish are coached by Mike Brey in his 11th year with the program. They play their home games at the beautiful Edmund P. Joyce Center in Notre Dame, Indiana. The Irish will add some new talent to the bunch as Cameron Biedscheid and Zach Auguste head to the squad. Both players were ranked in the top 100 over the Rivals Top 150 Board. The Fighting Irish are excited to have such a strong recruiting class as they will miss star player Tim Abromaitis next season. Abromaitis lobbied to the NCAA for a sixth year of eligibility as he tore his ACL at the beginning of the year, but the NCAA shut him down. Last season the Fighting Irish finished 22-12, 3rd in the Big East, and received a 7 seed in the NCAA Tournament. They lost the preliminary round to a good 10th seeded Xavier team. They do return 2012 Big East's most improved player in Jack Cooley. Cooley averaged 12.4 points and grabbed 9 boards a game this past season. This season he looks to average a double-double, something Notre Dame has not had in a while. The Fighting Irish have been to the tourney for three straight years, but have not been past the Round of 32 since 2003 when the team made it to the Sweet 16. With the loss of Abromaitis, some say that this will be a rebuilding year for the Irish, but head coach Mike Brey does not see it that way. He sees the Irish advancing fun into the tournament under the wing of Cooley. Gold Coast Tickets does not want you to miss out on the action as Chicago native Jack Cooley takes a young Fighting Irish team under his belt as a leader looking to make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament. Grab the best seats in the house at the Edmund P. Joyce Center, or follow your Fighting Irish on the road right here at Gold Coast. Gold Coast Tickets has the best selection for your entire 2012-2013 college basketball needs!

Economic opportunity
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.

Penalty Predictability Enhanced
FERC modifies its enforcement guidelines.
own enforcement and 18 C.F.R. Part 1b investigation purposes against electric industry users, owners, or operators. Those purposes are separate from North American Electric Reliability Corp. (NERC) enforcement processes. FERC will not apply its penalty guidelines to its review of NERC notices of penalty and FERC does not intend to investigate minor reliability violations involving little or no harm or risk of harm. FERC's belief is that the guidelines will deal effectively with violations seriously impacting bulk-power system reliability.
Balancing the need to deter reliability violations and promote compliance with a recognition that less-severe violations should receive smaller penalties, the revised policy statement modifies certain base violation levels, risk-of-harm adjustments including modifications to the specific violation characteristic categories for risk of loss, total violation levels, and base penalties. The revised policy statement includes a comparative table presenting the several modifications. 9 The interactions of those new factors modify the guidelines' risk-of-harm adjustments to provide a smaller base penalty range for facts of low risk of minor harm ($5,000) to moderate risk of major harm ($2.1 million), while not modifying the base penalty range for the most serious violations, from low risk of extreme harm ($6.3 million) to high risk of extreme harm ($17.5 million).
With respect to loss of electricity load, the revised policy statement says FERC won't make individual assessments of loss-of-load value as a measure of a violation's harm because they require substantial time and resources by both the electric industry entity and FERC staff. 10 Instead, the guidelines use the quantity of load lost in megawatt hours (MWh) as a measure of seriousness. The 11 quantity categories range from a loss of less than 10 MWh of firm load (no level increase) to a loss of 10,000 or more MWh of firm load (add 32 levels). FERC rejects a suggestion to dispense entirely with loss-of-load data to calculate penalties for reliability violations, explaining that it continues to treat violations involving loss of load more seriously than non-blackout violations. FERC will consider loss of load when there is a causal connection between the load lost and a reliability standards violation, but not when a reliability standard requires load to be shed, for instance, to avoid cascading outages.
Once the final violation level for the type of violation ( e.g., misrepresentation, market or other, or reliability) is determined, that level, § 1C2.1, is matched to a base-penalty dollar amount from the violation level penalty table, § 1C2.2(b). Alternatively, the base-penalty amount is increased to the level of the pecuniary gain to the organization or the pecuniary loss caused by the organization, § 1C2.2(a)(2)-(3), if that dollar amount is greater than the base penalty. This civil-penalty assessment mechanism in the guidelines doesn't affect FERC's practice to require disgorgement of unjust profits by entering orders for the full amount of such gains plus interest, § 1B1.1. Nor has FERC let go of its discretion to assess non-monetary sanctions, either to replace or accompany monetary penalties, such as requiring entities to submit compliance monitoring reports or to conduct audits.

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night...
10 Best Rain Jackets of 2014
When the season changes from twenty degrees and snow to forty degrees and rain, it's time to update the outerwear. Sometimes you need a coat that's lightweight and waterproof, while also being paradoxically windproof and breathable. These are the best.
A Jacket of All Trades
Tested: Aether Alto Jacket
When we stopped by the Aether office and showroom to take a look at the second version of the Alto ($395) jacket, their crew handed us a sample and sent us on to their on-site testing facility — an industrial walk-in freezer — where we got a preview of how it would perform in the wild. Our adventures with the Alto would take us from chilly nights in Los Angeles to face-mashing wind in Detroit to a short stint inside New York's polar vortex. And Vegas. That set of varying destinations is where the Alto, a true multipurpose jacket, is meant to shine.
Tested by sheep
Tested: Icebreaker Sierra Long Sleeve Zip
We've been wearing Icebreaker's Sierra Long Sleeve Zip jacket ($180) all summer and fall for mountain hiking — and though merino sheep have a few more centuries of wear-testing on their coats than we ever will, we've managed to form some opinions of our own.
Neither rain nor sleet nor snow...
All-Weather Endurance: 5 Best Running Jackets
If we had it our way, every run would start and finish in perfect weather. But Mother Nature's idea of perfect isn't always a picturesque sunset or a sunny beach. For those of us not living in a running commercial, sometimes the long-mileage day may start with a thunderstorm or a few inches of snow. Whether you're just heading around the block a few times, working on your interval training or putting in a marathon, we've found the best running jackets for soldiering through the tough stuff.
Arc'teryx Veilance Blazer LT
The time to stow your wool blazers is getting closer everyday — but that doesn't mean a life of cutoffs awaits. The Arc'teryx Veilance Blazer LT ($500) is sleek and versatile piece of outerwear for Spring 2013 that wears like a fitted shirt, complete with articulated elbows and gusseted underarms, but is fully equipped to handle the rains to come. A rainproof stretch woven fabric that beads water away from the surface, taped seams and Schoeller reinforced laminated cuffs and hem round out this piece's resume on the durability front, while internal wallet and passport pockets keep valuables safe and secure. If the chic vegas Pit Boss look of the burgundy version above isn't your thing, the black and grey options should do the trick.

Down With It
5 Best Lightweight Down Jackets
Depending on your activities of preference, winter is either your joyous playground or whitewashed personal hell. No matter what, staying warm is critical. Down jackets have been a preferred winter option for many years, and for good reason — they're super warm (when dry), wick moisture away from your body, are packable down to small sizes for travel and have yet to be matched by any synthetic fibers. Here are our five favorite goose-based options to beat the winter freeze.
Alpha Industries ✕ Ace Hotel Fishtail Parka
The M-65 waterproof fishtail parka was first used by the U.S. Army in the Korean War as a lightweight shell to keep soldiers dry. The design allowed soldiers to wrap the back of the coat around their upper legs for ease of movement and more waterproof surface. Recently the "hope I'm cool enough to stay here" Ace Hotel teamed up with Alpha Industries — known for military-inspired casual wear — to revive the storied coat. Retaining the classic M-65 style while updating it with a washed nylon shell, stay-dry seams and modern lines means you can throw this on and hike through unknown forest and muddy embankments before strolling directly into the board room, unscathed. Don't whine to us if the muddy boots give you away, though.
Todd Snyder Fox Fur Marschcoat
Former J. Crew creative director Todd Snyder has used his synonymous line to push into a luxurious realm few other American men's fashion brands dare to enter. But it's not simply about throwing a higher price tag on the clothes you already own. Case in point, the Todd Snyder Fox Fur Marschcoat ($1,350) is crafted from top-of-the-line materials like 100% Italian Wool and features a removable contrast 100% Japanese quilted nylon lining along with a genuine Finnish Silver-Fox Fur Lined Hood (and we're not talking about good-looking retirees.) In short, it's in a different Parka league compared to the three figure look-a-likes crowding the department store racks. If the blaze orange isn't your color, there's also an option with navy blue lining.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Aether Altitude Jacket
Doing battle with black diamonds this winter means swapping your corporate suit for some waterproof armor. The Aether Altitude ($675) has the technical features to protect you from the slings and arrows of an outrageous fall line, September through May.

A fruity flavoued alcoholic beverage consumed by women and females. Also known as bitch piss. Consumed in vast quantities by 15-yr old girls with way to much make up and nowhere near enough clothing.
"What ARE you drinking? Not another alcopop! Go get a real drink!"
od uživatele Jack 25. Květen 2003
A sugary drink with a low alcohol content that tastes more like soda than anything else. Made mostly to appeal to people who want to drink alcohol at parties but can't handle the burn of real drinks.
Hard lemonade, wine coolers, etc. are popular forms of alcopop.
od uživatele yargh 26. Květen 2005
See poof juice. Alcoholic beverages (c. 5% alc) such as Barcadi Breezers.
-"Hahaha. Pissed on the poof juice again!?"
-"Erm, no. These are alcopops and they are strong shit."
-"Haha. Whatever!"
-"Erm, no. These are alcopops and they are strong shit."
-"Haha. Whatever!"
od uživatele brendan 07. Září 2004
An extremely sugary drink containing artificial fruit flavouring and alcohol specially designed by the manufacturers to cause tooth decay, obesity and type 2 diabetes.
Look at that fatty with brown teeth...far too many alcopops.

Hi all. I have a DLG3788W that doesn't heat. I was trying to solve my problem by following an earlier post, but wanted to stay away from the "shotgun" approach. My dryer symptom is that it doesn't heat at all. I Tested valve 1 and it peaks at 126VAC when the igniter is glowing. But after the ignitor goes out, valve 2 only gets 24VAC. Could this be my problem? If so, what could be causing this? Flame dectector? or? Thank you
Return Any PartElectrical parts? Special-order parts? No problem. We absolutely guaranty your money back if you decide to return a part within 30 days. And of course we'll refund your shipping and handling charges if we select the wrong part for you.
Thank you for the quick reply. Are there any diagnostics or tests I can perform on the main board?, just to make sure. This part is probably not returnable.
John63,Why is it that some LG Dryer Service Manuals mention 90v AC at the Gas Valve Coils, and other LG Dryer Service Manuals mention 90v DC at the Gas Valve Coils ?With the same Gas Valve part numbers.
With the thin wires and dc voltage these coils seem inferior in design, why does LG allow this?
I may start calling you EAGLE EYES Regis--that's an impressive observation on your part

Review: Dell XPS 10 Windows RT tablet and dock
Windows RT: unholy fondleslab abomination or clever integration of a grown-up desktop and touch-friendly tablet UI? Opinions veer wildly and violently between one and the other extreme. The newest and first non-Nvidia Tegra 3 receptacle for Microsoft's alleged problem child is Dell's Asus Transformer-esque XPS 10. On paper, and …
Is there a reason you've totally hidden the "comments" box?
On topic, I'd quite like one of these. I'd like one even more if MS had been good enough to compile an ARM port of VS2012 I could download, or even buy if necessary.
However, if I have to buy my productivity software or if (as now) it simply doesn't exist, £699 is too much money.
"Is there a reason you've totally hidden the "comments" box?"
Top left. So that those who want to make reactionary uninformed comments without reading the article don't have to scroll to the bottom :)
For half the price, you can buy an Asus Transformer Prime, or a Nexus 10 and a bluetooth keyboard case. I'm struggling to understand what this give you over those. It's got partial Office, perhaps a bit better than the solutions available on Android, but other than that, I'm coming up blank.
Maybe it's less crashy and malware-prone than Android?
(Note - not saying it is, just that it may be).
Thanks dogged, I was feeling terrible today, I needed a good laugh.
Re: @dogged
@Eadon how many times do you need to be told to stop accusing people of being shills?
Please stop it. It's immature and drags the whole site down with your level of discourse.
@Eadon Re "- Microsoft are paying you well for your ill-informed FUD, I trust?"
Ah yes Eadon. You are at it yet again are you not hmm? Anyone who says something you don't like is a villain or a shill. You expose your own pathetic bigotry with everything you post.
Re: @Eadon Re "- Microsoft are paying you well for your ill-informed FUD, I trust?"
What amuses me is nine downvotes (and counting) for suggesting a possibility.
Not an opinion, a possibility.
Either a) people can't read and simply assume
or b) at least nine people have an entirely different reason to downvote anything which even suggests that Android may be less than perfect.
I can't think of reason. Eadon almost certainly could.
Spend half of that money on a Nexus 10 & the other half on i5 Inspiron laptop. Job done.
RT or Not RT
There's no doubt that I'd prefer the full Windows 8 on a tablet - cum laptop combo rather than RT. But the battery life just isn't good enough for me. Sure, a normal ultrabook (windows or Mac) has less life than a tablet / i-thing, so a full windows tablet is no worse than these.
But still, I want tablet battery life with laptop capability. Too much to ask at present I guess
Re: This is subjective but the UI - the UI is FUGLY FAIL!
Surely something that fails at being fugly, looks really rather good?
Seems strange to brand this as an XPS, I thought that was their performance brand.
It was, until they bought Alienware. XPS is more the 'Premium' brand rather than performance nowadays.
I might buy one in 6 months time when they cut the price in half to the sort of price it should be at now as i doubt they are going to sell many at that price.
Are DELL just putting out a Windows RT device to keep the new partial owners happy and make it look like they think Windows RT is not gonna fail?
Battery usage
The way that the Dell Tablet + keyboard drains the tablet's battery first is not unique...the Asus Transformer Infinity does the exact same thing, which flies totally in the face of what the venerable old TF101 would do (which was to keep the tablet charged above all). The first time I used my TF700 I thought it was defective. It's stupid behaviour and I have to wonder why they changed it (and why Dell did the same thing).
Am I missing something about the price of RT devices
Even factoring in the fact that someone like Dell needs to make a profit on hardware, the cost of the first gen RT devices seems absurdly silly. Granted, you can run real, actual Office out of the box (an area where Android seems particularly weak) but it's a big premium to pay for it.
OTOH, this is the most compelling looking RT device I've seen.
Re: Am I missing something about the price of RT devices
Granted, you can run real, actual Office out of the box (an area where Android seems particularly weak) but it's a big premium to pay for it.
Except that it's not "real, actual Office" at all... is it.
Re: Am I missing something about the price of RT devices
Yes, it is real, actual Office. The following are missing according to http://blogs.office.com/b/office-next/archive/2012/09/13/building-office-for-windows-rt.aspx :
•Macros, add-ins, and features that rely on ActiveX controls or 3rd party code such as the PowerPoint Slide Library ActiveX control and Flash Video Playback
•Certain legacy features such as playing older media formats in PowerPoint (upgrade to modern formats and they will play) and editing equations written in Equation Editor 3.0, which was used in older versions of Office (viewing works fine)
•Certain email sending features, since Windows RT does not support Outlook or other desktop mail applications (opening a mail app, such as the mail app that comes with Windows RT devices, and inserting your Office content works fine)
•Creating a Data Model in Excel 2013 RT (PivotTables, QueryTables, Pivot Charts work fine)
•Recording narrations in PowerPoint 2013 RT
•Searching embedded audio/video files, recording audio/video notes, and importing from an attached scanner with OneNote 2013 RT (inserting audio/video notes or scanned images from another program works fine)
That's compared to the x86 version of Office Home & Student 2013. The common theme is largely code that was written in x86 assembly - VBA macros had to be cut from Office:Mac x86 originally, for exactly this reason. See http://www.schwieb.com/blog/2006/08/08/saying-goodbye-to-visual-basic/ for more on that and the technical challenges they faced. I would anticipate that, just as happened on the Mac, VBA will be back in a later release of Office RT.
My next machine will be a hybrid, or a damn good tablet. One thing it must have for me is proper multi-user support. I even went through the pain of "upgrading" my current Samsung Galaxy 8.9 to Android 4.2, and Google have blown it with that. Multi-user,yes, but other users cannot use the same apps unless you use the main accounts gmail, which kind of defeats the object. So, can anyone tell me if RT works the same way as WIndows proper in that all apps can be available to all users? If so then that's the path I'll take.
XPS 10, 12, Lenovo Yoga...dunno. I'll wait a bit.
Price. Reasonable really if you compare to apple.
Multi User
For me the multi-user capability is the main selling point for RT (I have a Surface). Each member of the family has their own login, with picture password, not the greatest in security terms, but easy for a 4 yr old...
Microsoft Family Safety controls what the youngsters can access on the web and in the MS Marketplace/Store/whatever it's called. For free apps the kids can just install age appropriate stuff, for paid for apps it prompts for a password for my Passport (or whatever it's called) account. For me, this works really well.
The multi user stuff allows each person to have their own app set, if an app has been purchased in one profile it's free to "install" again for a second profile as we use the same Store (OWIC) account.
I agree that the desktop vs Metro implementation is weak, that Office doesn't work brilliantly with touch (I tend to use a BT mouse for the occasional use of this), but to say that the Office environment is not complete is a bit of a stretch, the lack of Outlook is pretty bad, though I can imagine the interface being awful with touch on a relatively small screen, but the rest of the Office elements work well. The Metro Mail app is woeful though, OWA for me for now.
Shit screen
953 which is better than either the Surface or Asus' VivoPad RT
Huh? Am I reading this right?
Awful product
We've got one of these at work, as well as a Surface... And this awful Dell thing is worse in every way than the surface. The screen is worse, the case is plastic, flimsy and cheap, and has stickers all over the back. Huge laptop style power adapter, no USB port, only micro USB...
And the screen glass is coming away from the body. We've just had it sat on the desk, not exactly "tough usage".
Same price as the Surface too. I usually like Dell, but this is a very poor show.
I telephoned Dell, and they tried to offer me this as a replacement for a netbook, at £600 without the keyboard.
I laughed at them. This really is a joke of a product.
Confused about the bars diagram
If longer is better then this device is only better than the iPad ... who would have guessed a computer being better than a leap pad style toy.
Re: Confused about the bars diagram
Shorter is better - less time taken. The latest versions of Safari still outperform IE 10 on this particular microbenchmark. Microsoft continue to claim that this microbenchmark is not really representative of anything much, and that they focus their optimization efforts more on whole scenarios than on these microbenchmarks.
I bought the Asus WIndows RT Tablet instead.
For years I was the one always power hungry for the full deal but today I do not always need that power and I found what I needed in the quad core Asus Windows RT.
If all you do is email, watch netflix and message boards and angry birds then Windows RT is just perfect for you!
