    Big tablet/laptop suggestions?

    If I was to forgo the tablet I think my decision would be a whole lot easier, even if I had had a whole lot more options. For the most important option is the ability to type on it which is why I prefer the larger form factor, most of these 11 and 13 inch tablets I played with I had a lot of...

    unsure if I should rebuild or or build a new computer

    I've heard some bad things about the Asus M4A78 Plus like no heatsinks on the MOSFETs(that regulate the power to the CPU), 4-pin 12v CPU-PSU connector(vs 8-pin), smallish mobo chip-set heatsinks, and superfluous second x16 PCI-E slot at only x4 lanes. Do you think these are truely minor?
