People can just create a fake social media account to appease their workplace policy. It seems obvious, but surprising how many people don't know this!

Good write up. Seems like a mixed bag. Nice resolution, design, optical drive and expansion would be pluses but the subwoofer and the presence of Windows 8 instead of 7 are offputting for my personal taste.
Was interested to see you gave it a shot on Linux. I know there are a bazzillion flavours to try, but give Sabayon a try sometime if not having success with Ubuntu / Mint.
Is metro actually gone though? I thought MS were trying a sleazy cop out with this by literally adding a Start button back but when clicked it would show that God-awful metro tile screen instead of the Start menu? As someone that's used it on a tablet and a desktop seperately, it's a beautiful tablet OS but utterly horrific desktop OS UI.
It's as astonishing as it is equally amusing that companies such as Microsoft believe people want to use Cloud based "services" such as this in any sort of meaningful volumes. Medium to large businesses certainly wouldn't trust or rely on such a service and expecting home users to buy into some monthly fee sham is OTT even for them.
Looks like it's going to take a series of costly failures for them to accept people aren't stupid enough to buy into this cloud based services scam!
