**A Bit More Affordable: The Future of Computing**

The computing industry is constantly evolving, and one thing that's becoming increasingly clear is that technology is getting more affordable. This trend is likely to continue in the future, with companies like Apple making their products more accessible to a wider range of consumers.

When it comes to education, people often wonder how they can learn about new technologies without spending a fortune on courses or degree programs. While some people may prefer traditional methods of learning, such as attending classes or watching lectures, others find that online resources like YouTube are a great way to get started. In fact, many people have learned more from YouTube than they have in school. With the vast array of tutorials and how-to videos available on the platform, it's no wonder that so many people have turned to YouTube as their primary source of learning.

**The Apple Mac Mini: A Product to Watch**

Recently, Apple announced a new line of Mac Minis, which are compact all-in-one desktop computers. However, some users may want to hold off on buying one of these new models until they're released in the market and can get a feel for how they work. There's been an email circulating online about a widespread display issue with the product, but it seems that Apple hasn't addressed this problem yet. Hopefully, they'll get around to fixing it soon.

**The Samsung Galaxy S3: A Compelling Option**

When it comes to Android smartphones, there are many great options available on the market. One phone that's been getting a lot of attention lately is the Samsung Galaxy S3. While it may not be perfect – some users have reported issues with OS updates taking a while to arrive and screen quality in daylight and sunlight being subpar – it's still a powerful device that offers many benefits.

On the other hand, Apple's iPhone 5 has its own set of drawbacks. Some users find the screen size to be cramped for bigger hands and older eyes, while others are frustrated with the lack of accessories that are compatible with the new Lightning port. Additionally, Apple Maps hasn't quite lived up to expectations, and some users are missing the quick settings toggles that they're used to on their previous devices.

**The Great Debate: iOS vs Android**

So, which operating system is better – iOS or Android? The answer, of course, depends on personal preference. But one thing's for sure: both options have their pros and cons. For those who are new to the world of smartphones, it may be helpful to consider what features are most important to you.

**Living Without a Traditional Computer**

In recent years, there has been a growing trend towards mobile computing – using devices like tablets or pocket computers instead of traditional laptops or desktops. One person decided to take this trend to the next level by living off their tablet computer for three days straight. The results were surprisingly positive, with the user reporting that they could get just about everything done without needing to switch to a more powerful device.

Of course, not everyone may find this approach to be as effective, especially if they're used to working on traditional computers. But it's clear that mobile computing is becoming increasingly viable – and who knows? Maybe one day we'll see traditional desktops and laptops become a thing of the past.

**Windows RT: A Mixed Bag**

Microsoft's Windows RT operating system has been gaining popularity in recent years, especially among those who are already invested in the Microsoft ecosystem. However, some users may find that it's not as compelling for those who live outside of this ecosystem.

One user wrote to us to share their thoughts on the Surface with Windows RT – a device that they've enjoyed using despite its limitations. While they appreciated the convenience of being able to listen to music while browsing online, others may find that this feature is more easily accomplished on iOS or Android devices.

**Nokia's Free Maps App**

When it comes to navigation and mapping, there are many great options available on both iOS and Android. Recently, Nokia launched a free maps app with offline mode and transit directions – a convenient tool for anyone who wants to get around without relying on their phone's data connection.

**Google Nexus 4: A Great Option**

The Google Nexus 4 has been making waves in the smartphone world lately, and it's easy to see why. Not only is this device an affordable option with many great features – including a high-quality camera and snappy performance – but it's also available on the online play store, which means that you can get your hands on one quickly.

**The Firefox Question**

Our question of the day comes from Godaddy.com, who want to know: do you think Firefox updates too much? While some users may feel that this is true, others are frustrated by the frequency of updates – after all, isn't it better for things to be stable and secure rather than constantly changing?

**The Lightning Adapter**

Finally, we need to talk about one of our favorite new accessories: the Lightning adapter. This handy device makes it easy to plug your iPhone into a computer or other device without having to deal with the hassle of cables. And at an affordable price point, it's a must-have for anyone who wants to stay connected on the go.

**The Verdict**

In conclusion, there are many exciting developments happening in the world of computing – from more affordable options like the Mac Mini and Nexus 4 to innovative features like Lightning adapters and free maps apps. Whether you're looking to learn new skills or simply want a reliable device for getting around, there's something out there for everyone.
