    GPD Win Max or One Mix Pro 3

    Hey, I just had a laptop die on me and while I wait patiently for my Pyra, I need to get something in the next few days for travel. I am currently evaluating both GDP Win Max and One Mix Pro 3. I thought I would ask for opinions from those who have used either one. I will probably run Windows...

    Can the Pandora hook to an external Computer Monitor?

    I have been using my Pandora for more and more things at work.   I was wondering since I have an extra monitor that I use with my laptop, if I could somehow hook it to the pand for a larger display. If this is possible, I know I would need some kind of adapter or such.   I already have a usb...

    I hate my dog

    I hate my dog. She was so excited to see me that her tail caught my charging cable, dragging my Pandora off the table and onto the tile floor where the right shoulder button was mashed in. Grrr... Instant reboot to menu... So I loosened the screw a bit hoping the button would pop back...

    USB Hub question

    First let me start off by saying that I love my pandora! It does everything I could have asked for and is getting me back to learning linux and dabbling a bit in programming (Scary). I do not leave the house without my machine with me! I use it for work and play! I had heard about hooking...

    Atari 8 bit Emulator

    One of my all time fav games for the Atari 800 was SSI's Cosmic Balance. Unfortunately I have not been able to get it to run on the Pandora's Atari 800 emu. I may have found a work around (I think) but I cannot figure out if the "F8" function key is functional. Apparently this version of...

    Rift

    I dropped off the face of the earth and into the new MMO RIFT yesterday. Anyone else beta testing this game? Graphically I find it more satisfying than WOW,, but the game-play is stellar. The whole concept is there are these rifts that open up even in noob towns and dump out these invaders...
