      Anyone hear of the superbook? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/andromium/the-superbook-turn-your-smartphone-into-a-laptop-f

      I think there is definitely a use case for constant travellers.

          @Minion-Queen It's so grossly over funded. Typically when this happens the tech companies take notice big time.

            I've seen some similar setups. I think it has potential.

                Why would you plug it into a laptop though..... I don't get that part.

                Unless the point is to be able to carry your "computer" around with you and use anyone else's computer to do whatever you need on their hardware.

                Which I'd tell them to buy a computer....

                  The SuperBook is like a phone dock... Everything that you see / do is happening to your phone.

                    @dafyre akin to a cell phone based thin client essentially. Except instead of draining your battery it charges it and it only costs $99. Less than a chromebook.

                        Ok maybe I was looking at this wrong, I thought the phone was what is the "superbook" lol

                        The actual laptop looking thing is the superbook.

                        Makes more sense.

                              I know that @IRJ was talking about a tablet he was using he really liked.

                              I know I love the IPad Pro (has LTE on it). And yes I have done IT support from my IPad Pro via Screen Connect

                              I've done it from my iPhone via ScreenConnect. That shit is just awesome..

                                Yes it is. I love having something so slim and lite to carry around with me.

                                  With a bluetooth mouse + keyboard I assume?

                                    The IPad Pro has a keyboard that connects to the tablet and the pencil and because it's an awesome touch screen no need for a mouse.

                                      @Minion-Queen Do you run into that windows incompatibility stuff where its not designed for a touch pad so you're moving the mouse around with your finger? Not that I care, but a lot of users I have supported over the years hated that.

                                            Hope everyone had a great day today. I'm going home in 30 to play with my VM Host. Setting up a primary and secondary domain with a Plex server. I want to see how a windows domain interacts with a CentOS file system.
