    Windows 10 What have I done ??

    Hi Thanks for calling in. I thought I'd be clever and 'have a go' at installing Android on my Windows Machine 'not a good idea' as half way through the installation it threw its legs up and decided it was not going to install. Now when I boot into Windows 10 I get GRUB and have to EXIT twice...

    Very small SSDs - Why?

    I'm shopping around for an SSD to replace my aging magnetic HDD in an old laptop. I see that they make SSDs as small as 8GB. How does that work?
