    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Re: News - HEXUS community forums nearing another major milestone

    For me, I occasionally post on certain topics if I feel it is something worthy of sharing as I don't see the point in irrelevant comments or just repeating something someone else has already said but in different words!!

    I often find it's as helpful just being part of the forum and reading up on issues other posters have had and the solutions that they have found helpful...

    Re: News - HEXUS community forums nearing another major milestone

    I found out about Hexus through Scan, the little X that appears next to some items leading to a review or something. I can't really remember how I found the forums but IIRC I joined because I wasn't a member of any other general computing forums and I found out about free shipping while reading the rules.

    Didn't Zak post something similar before that? Or was it the same thread, I forget.

    Reminds me of the "hurry!! last few!!" t-shirt threads
