I'm sure you're right and there will be options. We're an iOS household primarily, but have Android gear around and have always gone Nexus. This felt the first time we could stray and still stay in the Google family. Funny timing is all. EDIT: Wow, they're fast.

We had a coupon and 'upgrading' wasn't an option. White front/cement back/orange trim picked out by GF. Have a feeling OS releases just got delayed, though I hope it will be business as usual for awhile.

Ordered a Moto X last night. Today, not so sure that was a great choice. Grrrr.

Fan of Chromebooks, but has Skype shown up there yet? Course there's Google Hangouts as an alternative. My mom has moved to an iPad (along with an iPhone) for photography, reading, movies, surfing, etc. Know that's not what you're looking for, but it has liberated her. She's way more productive and my tech support calls have effectively ended. Plus larger version rumored this year (who knows?).

JP search for 'Buffalo' earlier in this thread for what we use at work. Sorry, on phone today so difficult to pull up in Tapatalk.

Those are both great points. I guess it really depends on your situation and what adapters you're willing to deal with. Just a note on the Caldigit and displays... Can I use multiple monitors with my Thunderbolt Station? Yes, the Thunderbolt Station can support two monitors if one of them is an Apple Thunderbolt Display. You cannot use a monitor with a mini display port to DVI/VGA/HDMI adapter while using the HDMI port on the device for a multiple display configuration because only the first display that is detected will function. For example 1. Thunderbolt Monitor and HDMI Monitor - Yes 2. Mini-Display Port Monitor and HDMI Monitor - No 3. Mini-display port adapter to DVI Monitor and HDMI monitor - No 4. Thunderbolt Display and HDMI adapter to DVI Monitor - Yes

A Belkin arrived today for work (why I looked that that sale was still on for home), but I don't have 10.8.3 yet so can't use. That may change next week. I guess it comes down to port choice, but FW is more important than HDMI for me. Or put another way with Apples current offerings your next machine is much more likely to have HDMI than FW. Course those with several monitors.

$199 for Belkin Thunderbolt Express Dock ($299, $100 off in cart). Requires OS X 10.8.3 or later. http://www.belkin.com/us/F4U055/p/P-F4U055/?text=Save100-Jan-thunderbolt-F4U055ww-page&utm_source=cj&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_content=SSave100-Jan-thunderbolt-F4U055ww-page&utm_campaign=cj-Save100-Jan-thunderbolt-F4U055ww-page&ref=CJ#
