  2. How many cups is that?
     
  3. Simply purchase a tablet and then grind it into a fine powder to find out. I'm sure iFixit will be able to tell you how to reassemble the powder into tablet form.
     
  4. Ah but what is lighter? The iPad mini white or iPad mini black?
     
  5. one and a half cups and the black ipad mini, everyone knows black weighs more.
     
  6. Correct! Black absorbs all of the colors in the visible light spectrum, thus making it infinitesimally heavier than the white, which reflects all of the colors.

    However, the catch is that although the black version is heavier, black makes you look thinner.
     
  7. Up to a point, then it makes you look like an overstuffed black pudding
     
  8. What the heck do you stuff black puding with?

    The LTE equiped version of the ipad mini weighs 4 grams more than the wifi version. See I actually know something thats useful.

    FYI: iPad 2,4 is the current version of the iPad 2 that Apple sells. Basically, same internals as iPad Mini but with a much larger battery due to the large size screen/case.
     
  11. Uh oh, chi's feeling uncomfortable with reality again.
     
  12. I would say the Ipad is like the long, solid whereas the Nexus 7 is more the small dry solid.
     
  13. my dog's ppop comes out white. I kinda' wonder if I should call a vet.
     
  14. well i can tell you if you get white poop as a human, you better rush your ass to the hospital so i'm going to assume the same for a dog.
     
  15. Maybe it's a white dog.
     
  16. that's racist, man.
     
  17. Got myself a Nexus 7. I'm enjoying the 7" size a lot more than the 10" tablets. It's actually light enough to hold with one hand.
     
  18. Today an iPad brutally attacked a Nissan SUV. So typical.
