Windows 10 1809 or Intel 10nm?

The company I work for gave me a really nice Dell Precision 5530 laptop with the really nice 4K screen option. The monitors are on my desk are your standard issue, no frills, Dell 1920x1080 screens. If I try to run all three screens at the same time (two 1920x1080 screens scaled at 100% and one 4K screen scaled at 250%) everything goes wacky. Icon and text size vary wildly. The only way to return things to normal is to choose to use only the external screens or only the built-in screen, and do the sign-out/sign-in dance. It is—unpleasant.

Has anyone solved this problem?

My company has an old PDF form that was originally created in the now-defuct Adobe LiveCycle. It’s an incident report form employees were able to fill out, embed photos into, and then send the report data off to the main office. It was not mobile friendly.

So now it’s my job to replace it with something better. I have Office 365 E5 and a robust Azure subscription at my disposal.

Is this something I could do with Power Apps or Flow?

Any other ideas that’ll make me look like a hero?

Edit: I'll stipulate that this solution needs to be something a remote employee can quickly access and complete from an O365 authenticated mobile device.

Office 365 or G Suite — which do you think is best for families and why?

Things we’ll use: email, calendars, cloud storage for documents and photos, word processor, spreadsheets

Edit: We’ll probably also want to use a custom domain name at some point.

Hey hi hello. One of my work machines still runs Windows 7 Enterprise. I'm looking for a utility that will automatically size and position windows. There are dozens of them out there, so do any of you recall any standouts you would recommend?

The installer for Visual Studio for Mac is in French it seems. I've downloaded it multiple times and re-ran the install process. It's in French every time. What?

Paul made a comment on a recent First Ring Daily that Parallels was the better way to run Windows on Apple hardware. I had been using Bootcamp, but I gave the latest Parallels a try this morning. HOLY CATS! It's way way way better than Bootcamp.

I'm running Windows 10 Pro in Bootcamp on a 15" Macbook Pro. I'd like to remap the lower-left fn (Fucntion) key to Ctrl in Windows; however, all the keyboard mapping applications I've seen so far only consider the three (Ctrl, Windows, Alt) keys left of the Space Bar on standard Windows keyboards.

Any ideas?

I use FastMail for email, calendars, and contacts. Windows 10 not having native caldav / carddav support is really the only thing keeping me from switching from Mac OS to Windows 10 full-time.
