Not used this device in particular, but I've found that the the best
increase in speed I've ever found was with raid 0 ssds.

It was blistering even on a pc from 5 years ago.

[OT] HP Spectre x360 thoughts

2016-12-13 Thread Tom P
Hi Folks,

I'm thinking of buying the HP Spectre x360 13 inch with high specs (16gb
ram, 512 ssd, i7) which ends up costing about $3100 with the warranty. Have
any devs here had bad experiences with this machine or recommend a
better alternative
for the price?

Cheers
Tom
