I'm using SlimROM now. Much better than CyanogenMod.

Thanks, but I'd stick with my Open Source $35 Raspberry Pi2 which also has a Quad Core processor, 1 GB RAM and above all, a great community.

Did you seriously compare a cheap tablet that practically no one in their right mind would buy against a Macbook Pro laptop? Seriously ? And you wrote and article about it?.. Good job.

Also, after I change my MAC address, the RJ-45 ethernet port shows no lights and Windows shows a RED cross at the internet connection indicating no internet connectivity and also running the troubleshooter says that the cable is not connected which is not true. Cable and network card is...

Update the network driver manually. Google for a new version of the driver. Uninstall softwares that might be interfering with networks (For example "connectify" - a wifi hotspot creating tool often caused problems for me). Use CCleaner to clean everything including registry. Use a good...

Hi Mark, Thanks for the quick response. There is no problem with the cable or my laptop because I checked it in the study room and both are working perfectly. Its just that I cannot seem to connect to internet. I have noticed one important thing though. After I change my MAC address using...
