What voltage are you running them at? I find they seem to be dropping frames when there is rapid movement, even though they don't seem to…

I don't think they do ECG. I haven't checked for a while, but at one stage watches tracking ECG were not allowed to activate that feature…

Other than the smaller screen, colours and lack of LTE, this seems to be a very good deal. What am I missing? I'm particularly interested…

It relates to this: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000091662/graphics.html A general vulnerability was found with…

8th generation no longer obtains driver updates for the graphics "card". The CPU might, but it is a security problem with drivers now being…

The 7 and 8 series Intel systems are no longer receiving Windows driver updates and this matters in terms of security. I think the 9 and 10…

Yes, the combination of a weak Australian dollar and disruptions to supply chains due to politics, has raised prices. I think the fabs were…

It isn't just that 8th Gen speed is slow. There are no future security updates for 8th Gen drivers on Windows, which means some of the…

Sure, but that doesn't help if you want two different kinds of drives: one fast for booting and some data, then a larger slower one.

Just a pity about the lack of storage options on this model: Only one SSD, given the size of the notebook it should have been easy for Dell…

Thanks. The C220 is a higher resolution, approx 3MP vs 4MP.

Weren't these on special on Black Friday for about two for $45?

I have raised this issue in the past, but many people don't see it as an issue.

Having 2400W output can be handy for using high powered or difficult devices for just a few minutes, such as power tools. You are…

You need to be careful about how the UPS mode works on many of these as most don't switch fast enough for some devices. I believe 10ms…

There a quality ones around that don't come from Aliexpress. I'm sure there are 3rd party service centres that would sell and install these…

Mac Mini M4 owners would be far better off buying one of the third party SSD drives designed to replace the existing Apple SSD. These third…

Unless you are basically just watching a couple of streaming apps, 64GB doesn't go far. Even for primary school aged child, once you load…

There is lots of misleading advertising or pictures on the site. I won't buy anything that uses 230V as it won't be compliant/certified.…

I would imagine that these units were being sold off cheap (below cost) as I suspect a manufacturer in China went out of business and this…

There is going to be a flood of low cost LFP Power Stations this year as the cost of LFP cells, particularly B grade, continues to fall.

Is your whole street on FTTP or just you? If it is just you, then it is likely there isn't proper backup on the FTTP node.

There wasn't a 5GB plan. The smallest roaming plan was 50GB. I think this is a really good option for many people or situations. I don't…

Do you think these businesses were obtaining them from Dell without the monitor stand, or did they just send the stands to landfill? The…

The dropping Australian dollar is not going to help your cause.

I don't think anyone said it didn't have enough RAM for a modern desktop OS. These days there are many non-GUI applications that need more…

Just comparing to other lower cost boards on the market in the same price range. What you are describing is a microcontroller, which is a…

I realise these still have their place, but less than 1GB RAM, limited processing power and not using USB C, it all seems very dated.

I'm streaming RTSP to Frigate (NVR), but I'm still getting my head around Frigate.
