      These seem pricey for the specs...

      That seems average to me. That is Dell's business line of mobile workstations, which are "higher-speced" than most of what you would find in a laptop.

        $1600 decked out with great options is a good price. I just made one on Dell.com
        Plus you get support from Dell for ubuntu.

          Go by the base specs at $950... with Quad Core @2.5gHz, 4GB of ram, integrated graphics, 500 GB Winchester

          For $1,000 -- 3 years ago, I got an Acer i7 six core at 2.3 gHz, 16GB RAM, NVIDIA GeFore 750M (4GB version), and 1TB Winchester...

          That's why it seems pricey to me.

            @dafyre Yes i think they had the 943 base price just to say that one could buy one under 1k. Needs the extra options for the value i think.

                They mention about wanting to create their own Social Network for the country, what an excellent idea so they can create a backdoor and have access to everyone's information.

                  Governments are wanting to control the internet and trying to put loads of pressure on big internet companies to comply with their wishes...I see eventually they will probably get what they want.

                    Just noticed this while applying this month's patches. I know I've seen some on here complaining about the 14 character limit before, so just in case you didn't read the release notes...

                      Me. I tried to set the minimum password length to 16 at a client with Server 2008 R2 and found out 14 was the largest I could set it to.

                        I found it odd this was a Windows 10 update and not a Server or Group Policy definition update. Maybe the latest 1803 GP enable this, and they're just having to do an update to pre-1803 systems to play along? I'll have to look more into it tomorrow.

                              I would like to know how expensive it is.

                                  I don't. I think I just heard my wallet scream just looking at the picture.

                                      It is a Seems interesting. Thoughts?
