In the MateBook X Pro, I found a machine with keys I could trust, a look I already loved — it even confused a friend who was sure it was an Apple laptop — and speedy performance that allowed me to blaze through my work. And while I like the MateBook X Pro, Windows 10 kept pushing me away. Moving over was pretty easy For as long as I’ve lived on Macs, I found the transfer process to be pretty simple....

But the world has changed so much. We’ve seen the Alliance and Horde take up arms against Azeroth’s greatest threat in World of Warcraft: Legion only to suddenly fall deep into faction wars (in an overly contrived and universally reviled narrative arc) in the Battle for Azeroth expansion. Even now, in Shadowlands, we see the Alliance and Horde fighting together against a monumental threat. Why wouldn’t the Horde and Alliance tackle the world’s biggest foes together?...

There are a few concessions to be made at that price. For instance, that 120 fps I just mentioned can only be achieved at 1440p resolution. Plus, the console lacks a physical disc drive and 8K support. But for gamers who are looking for next-gen goodness at an affordable price, the Xbox Series S is hands down a winner.

But fans always find a way! Here are some dearly departed Microsoft apps, and where to find them. I downloaded all of these using the links provided, and didn’t run into any trouble. But as with all downloads, you should run the files through antivirus software, and be careful that you’re clicking the correct “download.” Windows Movie Maker—beloved by many for its simplicity—was officially discontinued earlier this year, but it hasn’t come preinstalled on Windows computers since Windows 7....

Design Man, oh man, would you look at those bezels. The 2010 iPad’s bezels are simply massive by today’s standard, stifling the 9.7-inch display. And at 1.5 pounds and 0.5 inches thick, the original iPad was definitely chunkier than its modern counterpart (1.3 pounds, 0.3 inches). So it’s amusing to read the design section from the 2010 review and see: See? Bezels are a good thing. Compare that to what we said about the current iPad....

Design Thank you, Acer, for not phoning this one in. You could have just put out a slipshod notebook clad in ugly plastic. Instead, you had the foresight to adorn the lid in silvery metal with a visible and tactile crosshatch that plays up the raised diamond-cut Acer logo. I’m even a fan of the slim gray plastic border that culminates in a slim strip that forms the lip. The overall presentation is jaunty, indeed....

Aimed at the education market, the Tab 10 has a 9.7-inch, 2048 x 1536 display and measures 6.8 x 9.4 x 0.4 inches. And I hope you like blue, because that’s the only color it comes in.
