Cool simple little privacy tool for your webcam.

Neat little privacy slider for laptop webcams and phones:

Yep, sticking a bit of tape over the lens it waaaaay cheaper but its also messier and hassle..

Maingear Pulse 17

Maingear Pulse 17.  Check out the spec, the resolution is only 1080p but apart from that its an impressive package and until Apple consider making 17" laptops again it's as good as it gets for such a compact size.

Google Pixel opinion

I want to like this, the screen sounds beautiful but they've clearly priced this too high!

Google Docs is tablet territory and thats essentially what you'll be using on this. Its focused on web-apps. $1300 is performance computer grounds. This has a bigger battery offset but a hungry display so its unlikely to be setting any performance / battery test records....

Still its a nice try. Keep on trying Google..
