5w are enough for a bit of Radio in the Morning

Most recently, I sold my Exposure 2010+Triangle Titus 202 and now have âspeaker systemsâ with a power of as much as 4 watts instead. However, these kids even reproduce the contrabass, albeit lightly

I bought this cheap X99 mobo & cpu bundle from AliExpress (my first-ever purchase from them). The CPU is interesting. Itâs an old 12-core xeon server processor. The bundle didnât include a cooler but I found one on Newegg for $20. I bought 32GB of DDR4 ECC RAM for $30 on eBay. So all together Iâm out $90 plus tax. I already had a case, power supply, and 512GB SSD. So far Iâm satisfied with my cheap Linux machine. It runs VirtualBox like a champ!

Got yet another laptop. China exclusive Xiaoxin 14 Pro AMD. If it were released worldwide, itâs just the IdeaPad 14 Pro Slim 7i AMD. They have the Slim 7 AMD worldwide, and the Slim 7i Intel worldwide, but never released the 7i AMD. So bought it from China because thatâs the one I wanna play with!!!
7840HS/32GB LPDDR5x/1TB (replaced with 2TB)/AMD RZ608 (replaced with AMD RZ616)/2.8K OLED.
Yeah, I skinned the top literally as soon as I verified the hardware was good.

I admittedly donât really understand the obsession with skinning them, but Iâm truly envious of your ever revolving hardware.

2 reasons.
The first, and more realistic reason for me is that I HATE black, grey, and silver as colors on laptops. They bore me beyond death. I need colors!!!
The second reason is that it protects it from getting scratched up and makes it easy to clean of fingerprints. Thus keeping it working at itâs TIP TOP for longer.
Well, that pretty much removes something like 100% of all laptops pretty much hahahaha. I can see why that would bring you to do this, as your selection otherwise would be very poor.
I personally like thinkpad black. Itâs my favorite color. Like my heart and soul.
Iâm just kidding I donât have either of those things.

I actually find ThinkPads to be possibly the ugliest laptops in the history of mankind stock. I find them utterly revolting to look at. But throw a colorful skin on them, and thenâŠohâŠthatâs a different answer!!!

Wooo, that keyboard is DEFINITELY an IdeaPad keyboard. No way thatâs getting mistaken for a ThinkPad, Latitude, or any keyboard thatâs got any quality feel to it!!!
Asus has a bigger range of colors for their units. You probably donât need to reskin those. Just pick a color and search the internet. Ex: âasus blue laptopâ, or âasus orange laptopâ.
Quality wise I think theyâd still feel better than IdeaPads, as IdeaPads really feel cheap.
Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s. Itâs smaller than my previous full size wireless Logitech keyboard that this replaced. Hoping my hands can get used to it.

Sadly I wont be able to use it as I hoped, thus I wouldnât be able to give an adequate opinion on how I get on with it. As Iâve said previously, itâs smaller, and in my case, I planned to use this in a recliner on my lap. It being significantly smaller it doesnât sit right. Iâd say my previous full size keyboard will get more use.
The Pebble Keys 2 K380s built well, and is fun to use and nice to look at, and the key presses are noticeably better compared to my older full size keyboard that is a K360. Sorry, I wish I could be of more help.
