    <p>There's nothing wrong with Paint 3D. It does everything Paint does. Literally, everything. You may not use the 3D stuff, but here's the beauty of it…you don't have to use those tools. You don't have to use Paint 3D at all. You still have Paint. It's not going anywhere. Maybe there's a case for modernizing Paint without the 3D stuff and making those tools like an add-on or something. I dunno. Just use what you like.</p><p>Also…Paul's suspicions are confirmed.</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/eeQdkvx.png"><img src=""></p><p><br></p>

    <p>Not to beat on the Invoke too much, after the price drop and then the "rebate" years later I got my value out of it. I was hoping they would enable both the microphone and speaker so I could use it as an awesome conference phone option. It does sound amazing though as a speaker.</p>

    <p>I used to use PIP a LOT! I had my PC setup with it's second monitor as my TV. When I was still working one of my tasks was updating client servers after hours. Since we always installed Dell's DRAC cards on their servers we never worried about remote updates. So after hours I would remote into their server and start the updates. I'd then put the screen into the PIP window to monitor the updates and then watch TV or play on my Xbox until I needed to complete a step, reboot the server, etc.</p>
