I kept using my BlackBerry for as long as I could because of the physical keyboard. The Passport was the best phone I’ve ever used, such a unique device. Got a lot of looks and questions whenever I would be using it. Completely unrelated, but, a weird thing I notice sometimes is tech sites using stock images of a BlackBerry Playbook as a generic tablet for articles.

I love these creative builds! The first desktop I ever put together was in a little half-height case that fit perfectly in the Ikea TV bench I was using. Whenever anyone asked “That’s a computer?” it filled me with pride.
