as an enterprise tool they are great, imagine on site visualisation for developers

like big civil engineerng projects etc

I can also see this be handy in decommissioning nucelar reactors. There is a heck of a lot of manual dexterity when removing cores!
DeepPan
20:34:30
I think it’s only got a 4 hour battery life at the moment, so might make more sense to start with the expensive enterprise model, then drive th price down over time until you can introduce it to consumer/gaming

Ewen had a story about zipping a file, except none of the kids had a “computer” to unzip it
BenGillam
20:48:57
biggest pain the backside with ios is downloading files and archives
BenGillam
20:49:18
can just about get around them if you are clever and make use of shortcuts app and a 3rd party file manager
BenGillam
20:49:39
if file management got better ios only computing could be more realistic for more people
batwench
20:51:45
it does have a lot to do with the parents and how much they know about tech and these things. Most of the people I have come into contact with at the BTN are decent parents, some however in TRW aren’t and muggles when it comes to these things or believe wehat they are told in the The Sun or Daily mail

the reason Y2K was NOT a disaster was BECAUSE we took it seriously!!!!!!

the fact that we SUCCEEDED does not mean it was wrong to put in the bloody effort!
batwench
