While enjoying my M11x R2, I'm still hoping there will be a new model sometime in the future. Perfect size for mobile days!

With the smaller ones (11") I tend to go minimal / sleeve only, since I use them mainly while moving and don't want to carry a lot. The bigger ones (15" & 17") are carried in a backpack with a padded laptop pocket.

TP-Link Routers with DD-WRT. They're easy to flash and DD-WRT has tons of options. (DMZ, Port Forwarding, VLAN, VPN, SSH, WLAN Captive Portal support - just to name a few) On the other hand if you don't need real hardware you can simulate networks with Cisco Packet Tracer or GNS3. With GNS3 you can simulate nearly every aspect of (Cisco) networks. If you spin up a Virtualbox VM you can route this guest through GNS3 simulated devices, thus making the options endless. From that point you can go further and simulate an ASA or Juniper Appliance with GNS3 and learn security and firewall background.

Another one waiting for Watch Dogs... I hope its going to be as great as they showed it in the teasers...

Started Titanfall yesterday. It really is fun. It is a very interesting style to play against bots and real players at the same time. Things i like about the game: - Short round timer - Fast unlocking - I started it and it immediately made tons of fun Things to optimize: - performance! It needs a lot of Hardware to run smooth.

Did anyone try out one of those two already? Any ideas if the connection issues might get better by replacing the Centrino?
