So what you got and what do you think?

My first was a Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1. Android based and good to use.
Got Millie a Chinese "knock off" from the bay for cheap and she's been very happy, although the screen res isn't particularly good.

Xmas acquisition was a Nexus 7, the best by far.
After using a Nexus phone for a couple of years having vanilla Android on a tab is great.
Superbly fast and outstanding resolution.
Coupled with an exceptionally reasonable price point it's a winner in my book..


So you going to share?
Lets see what we have on the site..

I'm responding on my brand new Samsung ATIV 700T.

It's one of the new hybrids. It is a tablet with an attachable keyboard. It's a bit big for a tab (11"). But its not that unwieldy. Windows 8, of course. And it includes Samsung's S-Pen. Handwriting recognition has been excellent. With an I5 processor and SSD drive, it is lightning fast.

I'm getting used to Win 8. There is a lot to like about the new Start screen, though it takes some getting used to.

Thank the powers that be for end of year bonuses.

I'm on a five-year-old IBM computer with Win XP Professional. :) My husband loves his Nexus 7.
