Post Your Last Purchase XXVIII

[GerritV]

Thinking of switching to Kobo, how you finding it? I guess you can't compare it to Kindle but still would like to know.

A bit too soon to fully answer your question I'm afraid. My first impressions FWIW:

- nice format, not too heavy
- the case was recommended in several reviews, so I added it right away
- uploading epub files seems to be handled via a usb cable (no wireless on the Clara I guess)
- nice screen, with brightness and (auto) natural light settings
- synchronization with Pocket (though I haven't got that working yet)
- I plan on giving Calibre a closer look as well to handle my library.

I've seen quite some reviews, including Kobo-Kindle comparisons. In the end, I went with Kobo.
Kindle is said to tie you into the Amazon ecosystem.

No photos, just words.

However, should a description be called for, I will state that the sweater is black (organic dyed), hand knitted, and is a blend of cashmere (30%) and merino wool (70%).

My Grand H band finally came in. I really love it.

Also the full keyboard with black keys, and a the black Magic Trackpad.

I bought one for my dad, though a bit lesser spec, and I was quite impressed with the performance of it while getting it setup for him this afternoon. So I ordered one for myself, too.

Very nice. It’s my next large purchase as my 2018 Mac Mini is struggling with some of my LR and PS work. Enjoy.

Some beer was purchased today, but has yet to be delivered.

The beer purchased earlier today included several of a number of different types of beer from Weihenstephaner: Their Helles, their Hefeweissbier Dunkel, and their (seasonal) Festbier.

Then, there were several beers from a number of different Belgian (Trappist, or Trappist style) classics: St Bernardus Pater 6, Trappistes Rochefort 8, and Westmalle Dubbel.
