Lol, I bet you don't

I'm guessing it will have an accelerometer and display it the right way up depending on how you hold it

I'm not sure if the main menu screen will do this but it would be cool if it did

Unless you wanted to see something upside down, then you would be like a dog chasing its tail unless you rotated it through software.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Lol, yeah I suppose but then I don't imagine that's going to happen very often

I bet this is why the bloody turd of a machine doesn’t even have a web cam built in.

Re: OMG the iPad is such a piece of sh*t

LOL! I like those.

However with the netbook one... Just because I can juggle knives doesn't mean I can do it well and if I did try I'd probably end up dropping them all and killing myself. A lot like a netbook trying to "multitask" all those different things.

Actually with Windows 7 Can it actually multi task? I thought that Windows capped the number of apps in use? Also is multitasking as much use in the real world. If you really need to multi task use a proper computer.

Only on the Starter one it had limited apps in use (but not services etc), so it can still multi task.

What if I want to zip a file while looking at photos on facebook? Or upload a file via ftp while chatting on messenger. For long tasks multitasking is pretty important.
