So does whatsapp offer OneDrive backup compatibility? What is the best alternative messenger that provides encryption? (Signal is OK but has some flaws).

BJORNL, I disagree. I was in the market for a laptop without dedicated descret graphics as it needlessly reduces battery life, adds weight, reduces durability, increases driver completely and generally is a waste for my work. I wish more laptops at this price point came with better integrated...

Your laptop, depending on the number of VMs you are running, should be just fine with a bit more RAM and a SSD. I run VMs at work, and only have a 2nd gen i5 laptop. When I got it, it had a 500 GB HDD and only 4 gigs of RAM. We maxxed out the RAM at 8 GB and swapped out for a 256 GB Crucial M4...

Doesn't really need a massive battery for comparable battery life, as Windows Phone is appreciably more efficient compared to Android. However, I would love a RAZR MAXX sized battery... Would probably go a week between charges...

Now, if only they could make their mid-tier unlocked phones more available in the US, ala the Moto G...

They should offer Windows at reduced cost again: $35 is an impulse buy...

This is a move they should have made years ago: Even if crippled a FREE version that lets me run my apps while STAYING ON THE MOST CURRENT SECURE version of Windows is a win win for Microsoft and the CUSTOMER... I have a number of older computers around my house that would be very nice to be...
