Block time-wasting web sites during study hours.

You didn't get it right. Videos is still a separate app on the Homescreen.

There is quite a noticeable loss in audio quality, however. Shame :/

Tried it. Had up to 76 MB/s Down before. Brought me down to a measly 29 MB/s Down after.

Had an unused netbook with XP and 2GB RAM on it, upgraded it to Windows 8 and made it into a 24/7 Minecraft Server & TV Media Centre. 2GB is really limited, and still haven't gotten about to upgrade the RAM.

He got fired because he refused to apologise for Windows 8.

Where did you get that wallpaper?

Oh God, it's an absolute nightmare. It was the first tablet I got, and it broke down so many times that I lost count how many times I had to send it for repair. The buttons stopped working, the screen deteriorated really quickly(light leaking) and the charging port failed too. Customer service was horrible as well;…

Sure! 16GB less space and a frequent spinning wheel sounds like a good deal to me!

I actually have almost the exact same specifications as you, the only difference being that I have a 256GB SSD. I use Safari on 10.8.2 too, but Gizmodo and all other Gawker sites work just fine for me.
