Wasn’t the tablet already an eReader?

Looks great!

Looks nice and gets good reviews!

Fish has continued to add bash compat over time.

He didn’t say he needed to make money farming.

Yes. One thing that motivated me was comparing side-by-side the C920's result with my iPhone's webcam. My test subject is a black cat in a black cat bed. With the C920, it's just one black blob. With the iPhone camera, you can at least see the distinction between the bed and the cat.

C920 is good enough for meetings. I solved the focus problem using the traditional Linux method of writing of udev rule which launches a timer when it's plugged in, which periodically launches a systemd service, which runs a bash script to make sure it self-corrects at least every 5 minutes.

Moneydance. That was a choice made years ago. It works fine, but we haven't reviewed the options in years. On the plus side, Moneydance is cross-platform, syncs to a remote server, has mobile apps and is reasonably priced.

My wife has used Linux for over a decade. She primarily uses a web browser, office suite and a money management app.

Those have all been well-covered by Linux for years.

With Linux, you can customize your desktop until you pull your hair out.

I’m ready for post-flat design.

ChromiumOS is Linux.
