I didn't realize it was an RPG so had to get a normal Mario game too...which was a nightmare b.c the Nintendo store got raped.

Been trying to update my daughter's copy of Pokemon X since she got it Christmas Day only to find out the Nintendo store has been suffering of late today.

I hope she doesn't suffer the well documented game save bug on the game. :eek:

So this Christmas I went all Nexus.

Bought a Nexus 7 two weeks ago and a Nexus 5 yesterday.

Got an unexpected late XMAS pressie from the wife!

An Acer C720 like I hinted at. :D

Already got it dual booting Chrome OS and Ubuntu. Fun little laptop. Time to see how good Haswell can be battery wise.

I've been thinking about grabbing one myself. How's the screen?

A bit lower res than I'm used to but for the price it's fine. I do prefer the glare-reducing matte finish on my displays though so if glossy is your kind of thing it will likely underwhelm.

Check one out in a store before going for it if you get the chance I'd recommend!

I thought the Acer had a glossy screen in comparison to the Matte one on the Samsung?

Mine is a matte screen. The older C7 was glossy AFAIK.

Oh right, makes sense now. I have the Samsung chromebook. I remember when I got it last year I was comparing it to the Acer and one of the reasons I got the Samsung was because it had matte screen and not the glossy screen like the Acer.

I got a chromecast as a late Christmas gift to myself! Now I am playing around with it to see what all it can do. If anyone has looked at them, Best Buy has em on sale for $29.99 right now. Hey, 5 bucks is 5 bucks! LOL!
