Re: [NF] Recommendation on best keyboard

Oddly enough, my wife has a brand-new iMac and is using a Logitech K300, which is a cheaper version of your K750, Ed. A year or so she said she wanted a black keyboard, because she was sick of cleaning the keys on the Mac keyboard (old iMac, about 6 years old). We looked at the K750, but

[NF] Python?

I've been avoiding this for years, but I'd like to pick up a modern language. Given my background in the Fox and this group, it looks to me that Python is the way to go. Question is: where do I start? I'll still be pc/Windows 10 only. I'll need the lang, ide & tutorials. -Lew Schwartz ---

Re: [NF] Python?

A good idea my be to first decide what type of environment(s) you want the code to operate in. Will your output be for web consumption or are you still a happy local app kind of guy? Maybe you were interested in going for the phone or tablet instead? After you get that knocked out then a

[NF] UPDATE: MS WILL deliberately auto-install Windows 10

MS seems to have been feeling some heat on this. Searching the topic in the last few days suddenly finds this page, which did not turn up in extensive searches a couple weeks ago: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3080351 So they claim the autostart of Win 10 installation will not occur

Re: [NF] UPDATE: MS WILL deliberately auto-install Windows 10

I'd be fairly sure it bases it on whether you're on Active Directory or not. Despite the FUD, the original blog post DID say that even on non-domain machines you will be presented with a clear 'Do you want to upgrade to Windows 10?' choice before anything happens, and you can roll it back after.

[NF] Recommendation on best keyboard

Given that I spend 8 or more hours on the keyboard each day, I'm looking for the best keyboard possible. I'm using a Mac but I'm happy to receive feedback on good model Windows keyboards as well. My current keyboard of choice at home is the Apple USB keyboard. This is a USB keyboard with full
