I've been having a lot of trouble with my shoulder(s) again for the past 2 months* so I was thinking of getting another mirrorless camera. I had the NEX5 with kit zoom which was ok but I didn't carry it around very much since the zoom lens was a bit large. Is there anything I should look at besides the NEX line? *I got a massage and they hurt me bad enough to send back me to PT (probably a nerve issue) - so so frustrating.

According to this, you can't use MS Security essentials on Windows 8. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/microsoft-security-essentials-help#microsoft-security-essentials-help=windows-8&v2h=win7tab1&v3h=winvistatab1&v4h=winxptab1

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will try out Avast for now. Hopefully it doesn't slow down the computer much. I just want a pdf reader, I also have BlueBeam for marking up pdfs but It isn't great for just reading pdfs. I'm not a fan of Adobe reader, too slow. I'll look into FoxIt but I remember reading something about it I didn't like (I think it was something about the installation process). I totally forgot WinEdt, that is what I used as a grad student/postdoc; thanks for the reminder.

I see that your insurance doesn't cover cleaning the wound after getting the stitches. Sorry about the pain!

I haven't really used a Windows computer much* in the past 10 years but now have a Surface Pro 3 and thought I might end up using it on trips when I want a tablet with me. My hope is that I can successfully install Ubuntu on it in the future and maybe someone can figure out how to get the Type Keyboard working with Ubuntu. For now, I'll probably be sticking to Windows so I need software advice. What is the best/fastest/least buggy... 1) Virus Scan (I assume I will need one of these). I am leaning towards Avast or Sophos right now. 2) Pdf reader - Chrome reader it ok but it would be nice to have one not tied to the browser. I tried Sumatra but it is a little slower than I would like. On OS X, I usually use Skim or Preview. 3) Latex and general editor to edit html, python, etc. I'm sure I'll think of some more soon. *I have used a Windows Tablet PC but didn't use it for anything except Adobe Illustrator and Windows Journal. I also didn't have it connected to the internet most of the time.

Ouch

Yeah, but what about when Lightroom moves to a monthly subscription like the rest of the adobe products (or have they already done that)?

Nice!!!

Happy Birthday Scott!!!

Wish I could watch more OITNB but we keep traveling or having visitors at our house... so frustrating.

Luckily, I only had to do 1 day at Disneyland. This was the In and Out near my parent's house.

Unfortunately not in the Bay Area.

Happy Birthday David!
