3 days in: The Lenovo Miix 320

So first off let me real quick say this isn't a review. A review of this tablet will be coming out at a later date. 3 days is not long enough for me to fully judge a computer. This is more of a first impressions review.

The Lenovo Miix 320 is a detachable computer. That means you can remove the keyboard and use it as a tablet. (Although I prefer to kind of it more as a tablet that you can attach to a keyboard.) It has 2gb of Ram and an Intel Atom x5 at 1.44ghz. It runs a full version of windows.

I bought this tablet because I wanted a more portable computer then my laptop was giving me. I wanted something I could say, take into a restaurant and not look like I brought in my laptop. But I also wanted a full version of windows. And I can say, at least in the last 3 days, it has done that. And pretty well actually. It's a bit slower then I'm used too, but it's not crippling slow. You can get minor stuff done such as browser the web and watch videos. I've also been using it to do some minor music edits and that's going fine as well.

My one kind, of compliant so fair is the keyboard. And that's mostly the layout. It's a little different. Instead of having the F1 keys they are all there as FN keys. And the backspace in in a weird location, making it harder to type then what I'm used too.

(Notice: I wrote this at 3 days in, but I forgot to post it. It's now been 5 days.)

Unpopular Opinion: Pokemon isn't fun.

Ah Pokemon. Nintendo ultra popular JRPG. For .the three of you who don't know. Pokemon is a JRPG game about catching and fighting monsters. Your goal is to go to challenge the 8 pokemon Gym leaders to earn their Gym's badge. There's a little more, but that's the bulk of the game.

I actually really like the idea of Pokemon games. I love the idea of building your team by catching randomly appearing Pokemon. It's a fun unique idea and really helps make you want to continue and see what other Pokemon you'll encounter. I've never really cared about the evolution of Pokemon. I tend to personally prefer tier one Pokemon appearance the most.

The big problem I have with Pokemon is the repetitiveness of the battles. Because of the way Pokemon battles work battles can take a while. Instead of the normal RPG style of all the enemies being on screen at once, you have to battle one at a time. The same goes for how many pokemon you have attacking. Unless you have a double battle.

In double battles you have two Pokemon to fight and you also have two Pokemon to attack with. This would be better, but this type of battle isn't super common. The main fight style is still one at a time. PLUS, sometimes you have to fight two trainers at the same time. So you still have lots of Pokemon to fight.

The games also just aren't different enough. I've played Pokemon Diamond. I've also played a fair amount of Pokemon Omega Ruby. (I think that's the one.) And they played exactly the same. The main draw to new Pokemon games is the new Pokemon. But I don't care about the appearance of my Pokemon. I know. "If you don't like it don't buy." And I don't buy. But that also doesn't excuse laziness.
And I do know there's a slight different in the story. New "team" and new Special Pokemon there trying to steal or whatever. Still not enough. I can get the same experience in Pokemon Diamond. (If I didn't lose my copy.)

For the record, this all just my opinion and I think it's great if you get enjoyment from these games. I just don't. And I thought I might write out my reasons.
