Got the grip, cage light and mic setup and it's really good. I might get the second grip for video work, and I need to get the required lenses for my setup now. I will be getting the full set of Neewer lenses to attach to the rig. I will get a pic this morning and pop up in a bit.

Just waiting for the grip to arrive. it will be here this week. Once it get it setup I will take a pic of it for you.

True. I am using Neewer to create a copy of this. I have the rig case, Grip with shutter release, multiple mounts for lenses, filters, etc. I have a LED light and a shotgun mic for my Pixel 8 Pro. Just need a Mic to USB C adapter and I am good to go. That being said, I would ALMOST take the chance on this one because of the hasselblad tuning.

I want this BAD. How do I get this entire kit in Canada?

Good. F*&K Ai. It's useless garbage. Oh, and it's great to hear about Lizard Boy and his multiple meta issues. I love that for him.

We can only hope. Microslop et. Al are screwing everything up.

I use eneris for the inspection side of things. it's web based. Xactimate and some other proprietary software for air sampling and surface sampling is windows only. No linux setup works. No mobile apps. there are apps but they ar limited in what I can do so I need windows. As I stated elsewhere previously. The world runs on windows.

Couldn't do with with the iPad. I am now on Linux Zorin OS on our laptops and LOVIN' IT. We are going to buy two older surface tablets with keyboards and pen and install Zorin on those too for our tablet'y duties stuff. I think it's a great OS.

Oh, here's the desktop on my main laptop now.

I have all systems moved to Zorin OS besides my workstation and my son's Gaming laptop. I am not sure if I am going to move him or not. Where he has autism, I think I am going to keep him where he is and just ditch all MS services for our own home hosted ones. I have the server mostly ready to go to move our stuff to it. Just need to get it to book from the PCI-E card and we will be off to the races. Our three laptops are MUCH improved on Zorin. So fast and efficient. Just have to get the wife used to using it. Once she uses it for a day or so I know she's going to be like why didn't I use this sooner. ha ha! The other thing this has done is saved us alot of money as a few of our systems were slugs on WIn11. Now it's working like a new laptop on Zorin. We can turn any one of our systems on now and work away on them without issue.

I have decided to use my iPad as my only "computer" for a week starting today. I am going to goto my desk and setup my dock to plug into. See how it goes. If I make it a week without any issues, I will push to a month. The things I need this to do is photo, video and graphics editing, podcast creation with multiple inputs, Home inspection software duties and other professional work like Office 365 stuff. If I can do all of that without issue. I will be good to go. Oh, and I need to be able to create websites via wix.

Yep. But you spent a few hundred on repairs, that's not even a car payment for a month. We have two older vehicles now that we are keeping on the road until they die, more than likely from rust. We just purchased a 2017 mazda 5 (jdm goodness coming this spring), and our 2016 F150 FX4 super crew. 205,000km on it and drives and looks new. that has 300,000 left in it for sure before the chassis starts to go I figure. A few hundred a year in maintenance is better than the 1000 dollar a month for a truck payement here. Keep old iron working.

I will probably just deal with the fan noise instead of installing something that might bork his system. Thanks for the information however. If it were my system, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Gaming is not on my radar so I don't care about that. If I did the only option is the Rog strix z from Asus.

Carefull not to pick it up by one corner. It is the same generation insprion I bought for my Mother and she picked it up and it cracked by the Lan port. Just from the weight of the system. It's dead now as the motherboard had a failure. It was a decent basic machine before the mobo died. I have 3 dells here now all with different issues. I am buying two more because for the money I cannot find a better set of specs. I am waiting to hear back from Skylum to see if Luminar Neo uses the NPU on intel based systems as it does on Qualcomm. If it does not I will be getting 2 surfaces and shell out the extra money.
