Newegg, Tiger Direct, Amazon

Is there an online service that allows you to upload a document and then let another person look at it but NOT download or print it? And then when they are done you can remove it so they no longer have access.

OK, I didn't know you could restrict it to not download.

I'm hoping that they don't have the patience to do that for 60 pages.

Also, I didn't mention to my boss that I was going to have to get on the internet to do it.

New macbook?

Loaded non-touch XPS 15. I couldn't justify spending another $1000 for MacOS and the touchbar.

I tried them out at Best Buy and they are cool but after a lot of research couldn't pull the trigger.

the xps looks so hot

pissclams · « **Reply #195 on:** December 19, 2016, 08:50:56 AM »

why not just get the non-touch bar mbp? to go from a mac to a dell seems unreasonable.

To get even to the same specs as what I bought would be another $700 on the non touchbar mbp. A lot of what I do can only be run on Windows, so I run VM's on my current mac.

When I do that I'm already partitioning the computer in half. So it really doesn't make much sense to spend $700 more just to cut the machine in half.

Trust me I wanted to get one because I love the mac I already have. From a logical sense tho it didn't make sense at all.

I looked at it but they only offered the dual core i7 on all of their configurations. Their newest one is only in a 13" right now and I hate the foldable 2-in-1 model they have for their 15".
