Windows 8 or IOS tablets?
Hi there
I own a iPad 1st generation from 2010 and it has been a fantastic device to use, however, Apple is no longer updating the software for this. I've seen Windows 8 and it looks very impressive on tablets and seems quite different to IOS. Do you think I should consider looking at tablets with Windows 8 or just stick with the original iPad that I have now but with no software updates. I don't want to buy a new IPad so suddenly haha.
Cheers for the advice in advance!
1 AnswerSoftware9 years agoHow to watch Paralympics 2012 live on iPad?
Hi there
I'm very excited about the Paralympics in London and want to watch some of the events live as our coverage here in New Zealand is only an hour of highlights each day making the coverage almost as terrible as NBC haha and they have fantastic coverage on The Paralympics website but I can't play flash so can't see any of the events live? Are there any alternatives?
Cheers!
1 AnswerOlympics9 years agoDo you think the US political system should be changed or remain the same?
Hi there
Are you quite happy with the current system of only voting for two parties?
Or do you think it's needs to be tweaked or changed perhaps to allow more parties to run for government like in Australia or New Zealand?
Or do you have any other ideas or views?
Thanks :)
5 AnswersPolitics9 years agoWhat is the point of austerity and cutting costs?
For my point of view it doesn't exactly help anyone out very much as the economy doesn't grow or gets much worse, people loose jobs, prices rise, it gets very difficult for people to make ends neet and the unemployment rate goes up and if the government manages to go into surplus they'll probably go back into debt after all the sacrifices the country had to make. Shouldn't the governments be spending more to stimulate the economy and create jobs?
