    Watch Two Crazy YouTube Dudes Eat the 'Carolina Reaper' - World's Hottest Pepper

    I have several "Trinidad" scorpion pepper plants. It used to be the record hokder until the new hybrids were invented. Now it's #5. Trust me, it will ruin your whole week. Good fun to watch guests who think they are all that sample it.

    Cleaning The Screen..

    I use Zeiss lens cleaning liquid and a microfiber cloth designed for glasses. Works for everything with a screen. Great for phones and glasses because it cleans off the "face butter" as I like to call it.

    Should install anti-virus on Surface Pro 4?

    I am NOT a safe person. Part of my job is research on security vulnerabilities, which takes me to some less than desirable places. I use vpn, firewall, av, and malware tools. No matter how safe you think you are, your chances are still very high of getting hit. No matter what you choose...

    you have to say no, then there's a standalone .cab file from microsoft that you can block specific items. HOWEVER, a firmware push will make you redo all of these.

    Turn your SP3/4 into Miracast receiver

    that's why I suggested MIRACAST only and not airplay. The bonjour "crap" has always been wacky. (On windows that is) :)

    Turn your SP3/4 into Miracast receiver

    Ok folks, pretty cool app. Install, run, turns your Surface pro x into a Miracast RECEIVER instead of sender. Stream your phone or whatever to your surface screen. :) AirServer - The Most Advanced AirPlay Receiver for Mac and PC.

    Anyone here prefer the SP3 type cover over the SP4 cover?

    Just like a Mercedes doesn't have $60,000 worth of parts. If you value something on just the price of the parts, but failed to account for the engineering, retooling and labor, then you have missed the point. I guess it is all in your perspective as a consumer to hope for cheap.

    Our promised new and improved OneDrive

    If you configure it correctly and open ports on your firewall, you can access it anywhere you can map a drive or use ftp/sftp. I would suggest tho, if you're not a professional geek, stick with one of the ready made devices. Ex Western Digital makes one, up to 4TB I believe. Just plug...

    Our promised new and improved OneDrive

    When they took away place holders, onedrive became mostly useless for me and I moved most of my data over to my home NAS that I can access "everywhere". Best part of that, it's faster than onedrive.

    Proper way to wear the MSFT Band (2)?

    Then you will not worry about sunscreen since you are already covered up. Try wearing long sleeves full time in Florida, says the guy in shorts, t-shirt and flip flops......

    10/26 firmware inbound

    Your issue is OS related and a firmware fix probably won't help. Have you tried any of these steps? Admin powershell: Get-AppxPackage | % { Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppxManifest.xml" -verbose } This reregisters your "windows store" apps...

    New Pen, SP3, antireflective glass protector

    Not sure that this is the BEST forum for this, but I got the new pen for the SP3, I have the anti reflective glass screen protector. Playing with the tips. Here's my take on this matte type screen protector: B is too soft and feels draggy. HB feels pretty soft, still some drag on this screen...
