When I decided that I actually wanted to start a dedicated website/blog earlier in 2018, I intended to use it as a way to showcase what I was working on and what I have accomplished overall. I find that I work through a lot of problems and I never share the solutions with people, which is one of the main reasons that I wanted to create this site.

I wanted to do a follow up my previous post about Windows on ARM since I have had some recent hands-on experience with this platform. I was able to obtain a Lenovo Miix 630 through a contract that I am working on and I have been using it in a daily basis for the last 2 months. I had wanted to give this platform a fair chance, and here is what I found out.
