  1. Hey guys,

    My family is looking into switching from cable to Verizon FiOS. I'm wondering if this is a good idea? We can save some money by signing up with them for a couple of years, but I've heard some bad things about FiOS regarding to the taxes and other fees, is this true? Also, aside from cost savings are the FiOS speeds good? And are they reliable?

    Thanks!

  2. I just heard that Samsung partnered with Google again for a new Chromebook and this time it's going to be $249 -- do you guys think this is a good deal for a laptop?

    Aside from the obvious benefits, such as the extremely low price, what else makes it a good alternative to a MacBook Air/Pro or ASUS?

    I get that it's all browser-based and isn't as prone to malware and stuff, but I feel like an operating system that's just a browser is kind of limiting. So yeah, what do you think?

  3. Hey guys,

    I've been thinking about trying out Linux and I was wondering what's the best distro to start with? Obviously, I'm still a newbie/beginner and I just want to test the waters. Any information you can provide would be great!

    Also, I'm thinking about installing the Linux distro in a virtual machine for starters. Is that a good idea?
