Is anyone with one the new 11” or 12.1” Onn tablets able to check whether there’s a built-in way to force portrait only apps like Reddit into landscape mode? I believe Samsung and Lenovo tablets have that in the settings but haven’t seen anyone confirm whether you are able to with Walmart’s tablets.

I was searching for studios on craigslist, trulia, apartments.com, etc. and one I found was 837 W Wolfram. The listing made it seem like a good place but I noticed that there are a lot of units available in that building. Should I take this as a bad sign? I wont have much free time to visit a lot of apartments in person.

So I was offered a job in the area and was wanting to scout out what the housing situation would look like. So far, I’ve only had luck finding a couple of bigger housing complexes online. I’m from Springfield and here a lot of landlords don’t really have online presences and you just have to drive/walk around to spot available apartments. Is that also the case there? If any of you have suggestions, it would be much appreciated. I would have a budget of around 1300 for a 1 bedroom though would like to spend less if possible.

On the Urbana parking website, it says that campus meters are enforced 7 AM to 6 PM. Are you not allowed to park there from 2AM to 6 or something like the campus lots? I need somewhere to park from 9ish PM to 4AM for a couple of days.

Does this just mean that a professor was late turning in the grades? I shouldn't be too concerned, right?

I was wondering whether the wireless keyboard and mouse for the HP Chromebox is bluetooth or does it use a dongle? How about the Asus?

I noticed that HTC still has their old back button on the first screenshot of the HTC Zoe app. I'm wondering why they decided to change it. At least to me, their old back button makes the interface look so much better.

I assume that the 11e will look exactly like the x130e/x140e since every article so far has used a picture of that, but I've managed to find a picture of the Yoga on Lenovo's website. With an IPS screen, the Yoga might be one of the chromebooks to beat.

I attended Illinois my freshman year but ended up leaving and spending a year at community college in my hometown. I was planning staying another year there but haven't really enjoyed it. So I'm probably returning to Illinois in the spring. Someone I know in Champaign wants to move out of his mom's house so I should have a roommate. Finding someone on Craigslist that is wanting to sublet is looking like the best option but I was wondering if you guys have any advice for a two bedroom, spring lease. (Recommended apartments/management groups, etc.) Would it be difficult to find an apartment near campus by now?

I currently have an iPad 3 and an older Nexus 7. I'm wondering how loud the speakers on the new Nexus 7 are in comparison with those two. When I feel like listening to music or a podcast when I'm laying down on my bed and I'm too bothered to hook something up to a speaker I'll just play it on my iPad at full volume. The iPad's speaker is good enough and but the Nexus 7 is very inadequate. So can someone tell me if the newer Nexus 7's speaker is as good or better than the iPad volume-wise?
