My general advice to anyone is to get the base model unless you know you need/want better.

A little change on the new iPad that I appreciate: they've moved the logic board on the smaller iPad Pro from the right side of the device to the center. The area surrounding the logic board gets quite warm under load, so its really nice that its moved from where you'd place your hands to a spot on the iPad that you don't touch as often. Hard to know whether this was done on purpose or if its just a serindipitous coincidence, but it is a welcome change. Before (9.7" model): After (10.5" model):

Oh yes. Good lord, 120hz on a tablet feels do damn good. This thing is a monster.

Much respect to the Cavs. LBJ and Kyrie are absolutely insane.

Oh, Brent does not worry himself about that when he is spending other peoples' money.

Just a tiny snippet of the genius level mind-games going on in the finals.

For what its worth, I am thinking of buying the 65" LG later this year when it goes on sale. If you got the 65" and decided to upgrade in the fall there is a possibility that I'd be interested in buying the used 65".

Just my own 2 cents, but I think you be happier with a larger size model. The difference between a 75" and a 65" is fairly substantial in person.

Gotta hand it to Kobe. These videos he does are great. https://twitter.com/kobebryant/status/873333281311174660

Not the result I wanted, but that was fun as hell. God damn I love the NBA Playoffs. After that drama, I think there is a solid chance g5 is the most watched NBA game in over a decade.

Well.... that was a game. Kyrie is insane.

God I love the internet sometimes. https://streamable.com/h2c06

Well, since you are local if you want you can borrow my prior gen iPad Pro that I have listed for sale here for a day or two and see if it works for you?

Probably an easier conversation to have over the phone. PM me if you want my digits and we can chat.

Hats off to the Cavs. LBJ and Kyrie left everything out there on the floor and just didn't have the gas in he tank to get them over the finish line. KD!!!!!!!!!! Legacy defining shot for him

Bonovox and the boys are in fine form in the Joshua Tree Tour NYC concert on disc 2.

To quote Floyd Toole from his book "Sound Reproduction: Loudspeakers and Rooms": "Technical excellence turns out to be a high correlate of both perceived accuracy and emotional gratification, and most of us can recognize it when we hear it." Basically, all things being equal, gear that measures better sounds better. I'm a believer in this, and I very much enjoy the work done by Mr. Toole, Sean Olive, and the AES.

Yeah, zero reason to buy the garbage can Mac Pro anymore. That new iMac Pro will be pretty sweet for people who can take advantage of that type of hardware in their workflows. The $5k starter price is a big ask, but that is the price you pay when you jump from Intel's "Core" platform up to "Xeon" with its ECC memory. I'm psyched as hell for the high refresh rate on the new iPad Pro. I've made the jump to high-refresh rate monitors on my desktops and now I can never go back. I'll have to see one in person before I make the jump, but if lives up to the promise there might be a 1st gen iPad Pro up for sale soon :).

Gimme some of that spicy Curry!

I think the Cavs have a much better showing in g2. A lot of the breakdowns I've read/watched show tons of sloppy mistakes that I think the King and his men are more than capable of cleaning up.

I was going to pass on it, but now that you endorse it I'll give it a listen this weekend.

Mike's Bikes, a local chain out here, was very highly recommended to me.
