Then you may want to look at some of the other Samsung displays that Woot is currently selling and see if any of them will suit your needs. There is a good chance your Mini cannot drive a 4K display actually.

Monoprice has a lot of monitors on sale today too, including a 27" IPS display. I can't speak to their color accuracy, but they have received generally good reviews from what I've seen in the past. No idea if those reviews were by color experts though.

The 27" IPS display is an LG panel, if that means anything.

My eyes are bad enough to have trouble reading my current (24 inch) diplay. I may get a new monitor for Xmas. I'm going to go look at various monitors at best buy to get my specs than find an equovalent on line. What do I need to watch for besides specs. That is two monitors with the same specs are not neccesarily the same. Are there brands to avoid or watch outfor? brands to stick to? Is reg screen better than wide screen? I'm hoping a 27 inch will work, cause they get much pricier past that.

So being the new Apple specialist at work I got the work iPad so I can learn and use and demo. Even though I mainly sell computers. Anyway I have been saying yes Applease OS is easy to learn and switch from.

Instead I've got this setup and dis covered it doesn't come with a calculator and something else I needed yesterday and can't remember. I cant figure out how to close appsmy I know I have a ton running but...I won't say it's not intuitive but goin from android to this is weird.

askye, I also had to download a calculator app.

To close apps, double-tap the Big Round Button. The various app screens will line up like pages on a table. Flick them upward to stop running that app.

Yeah, there are weird little quirks like that that you don't figure out automatically.

I only quit iOS apps if they're misbehaving and need to be restarted. So I do that maybe a few times a month.

If you have a ton of apps open iOS just unloads from memory the ones you haven't used lately. (iOS saves the state of the app so when you go back to it it appears the same as when you left it--as if it was in memory all the time.)

eta: Some apps, like FaceBook and gMail, will keep a small part of the app in memory to check for alerts, new emails, etc.

I need to shut down apps on my orig. iPad frequently.

I do know what you mean Askye. I got my iPhone in September and I am still figuring things out. I frequently wonder if a question is too dumb to ask my iphone owning friends or if I should just google the question and save myself the embarrassment.

You can also swipe up from the bottom of the screen using 4 fingers to bring up the active apps - don't know if that's set by default or something you have to turn on, but I use it all the time.

I had an iPhone for years and then switched to Android and now when I have to fix something on the kids' iPod I get totally lost. Mostly I keep trying to press a back button that's not there, or swipe down for the notification shade.

I figured it out, I'm going to try the 4 finger thing. It's just weird and it's weird that there's no calculator. I got into an argument at work over whether or not it came with it and the guy pointed to the ipad and said "there it is!" I was like - yeah , because I downloaded it.

I may actually start using iTunes. I downloaded the first episode of The Librarians and watching it on the iPad was fine, but then I started thinking -it would be even better if I had an Apple Tv. Which I totally don't need.

I feel kind of weird trying to be the Apple person. I can learn stuff but I get stumped when customers come in and have an older Macbook and need some adapter for a connection we dont have and I have to run and figure out if they can do what they want.
