G+_John Little Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Google support is great. I had a problem with my first Nexus 10" and they did not make me go through any extended trouble shooting or anything. I had a new one within a day or two and shipped the old one back in the same box on their dime. But then why let the facts get in the way of the apple fan club speaking on a subject they know nothing about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Bill Whitman Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I just find Ms Warren to be a megalomaniac who just wants to talk all the time and but in on everyone else's' comments; as though she's the only guest on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Pick Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Bill Whitman She has explained she does have A.D.D before on the show. I try to refrain from mocking her by saying "Squirrel!" to show how easily she can be distracted. She claims for her its normal behavior to often have her phone or tablet out in an interview to help keep her attention with the interviewee. I think most including myself would view it as rude. On the grounds I really don't care how good of a multi-tasker she thinks she is, I would need to know she can center her attention on 1 thing when needed to do so. But you maybe onto something with saying she's a megalomaniac Bill. I don't wish Christine to be a regular on TWIT.But I do appreciate her as a guest from time to time.? I did like Ms. Warren pointing out what the Amazon Fire TV can do without heavy moding. That is, run XBMC and Plex and still keep the Fire OS and get security updates. It put the Fire TV in the maybe buy category for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Bill Whitman Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Hi David, My experience with her has been different. It's as if she has to answer EVERY question that Leo asks, to the point where she almost leaves no room for anyone else to speak. She attempts to talk over whomever may be speaking; and almost "forcibly" needs to have an opinion on EVERY topic on hand. I'm at the point myself where if I see she's on the show, I'll pass.

G+_David Pick Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Also, I want to give Chad Johnson credit for editing out the bad joke with Christine Warren cutting her dad off from her tech support because he didn't listen to her and buy a Mac. Her argument was she gave up on him and drew a line in Concrete she will not help him until he buys a mac after he installed not once, but twice the virus MS anti-virus software. The clue its a virus and not legit is when it says MS anti-virus 2013. I had a friend do that 2 years ago on his old xp laptop. The good news for him I had just purchased a new lowend Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 on it for Christmas . I told him I was sick and tired of supporting his old laptop and him trying to do the latest and greatest stuff on a laptop built 1 year before Youtube came out. Its all in past, but I'd give Christine the advice, buy him the mac you feel is right for your Dad. Hold firm you won't help him unless he uses the new mac. Thats allot less cold in my opinion to what even Leo was shocked she did. I'd also remind Ms. Warren, you make allot more then me. You don't have to buy him a gold ipad, but you should be able to buy him something that will make you both happy unless your dad is total anti-mac.?

G+_Bill Whitman Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Hey David, Yep, I get that. It took me a long time to realize you can't help others who can't help themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Randy Strye Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 I used deepfreeze on my grandma's computer and put My Documents and the desktop in the ThawSpace... That way, if she gets infected, I just reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
