Acer Windows Mixed Reality Headset


This is my new favorite thing!! The best part is that I picked it up for $215.00 on Amazon.com
So if you were always interested in VR, but didn't think that you could afford it then this is your chance.
To support this you do need to have a laptop or PC that meets certain minimum requirements.

The minimum system requirement are:

Operating System Windows 10 Fall Creators Update (RS3) - Home, Pro, Business, Education
Processor Intel Core i5 7200U (7th generation mobile), dual-core with Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology enabled (or better)
AMD Ryzen 5 1400 3.4Ghz (desktop), quad-core (or better)
RAM 8GB DDR3 dual channel (or better)
Free disk space At least 10 GB
Graphics Card Integrated Intel® HD Graphics 620 (or greater) DX12-capable integrated GPU (check if your model is greater) 
NVIDIA MX150/965M (or greater) DX12-capable discrete GPU
GPU must be hosted in a PCIe 3.0 x4+ Link slot
Graphics Driver Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) 2.2
Graphics display port HDMI 1.4 or DisplayPort 1.2
Display Connected external or integrated VGA (800x600) display (or better)
USB connectivity USB 3.0 Type-A or Type-C
Bluetooth connectivity (for motion controllers) Bluetooth 4.0

I bought a Acer Predator
Buying something brand new that has a sticker that states that it is Windows Mixed Reality ready makes it a bit of a no brainer.   There are less expensive desktop options.

Pikes Peak Poker Pikes Peak Poker reached out to me because their old website needed a refresh.  So I made them this.  I tried wix.com for the first time because I had heard so many good things about them. I needed to see for myself.   I really like the fact that you can create a custom data base to be used throughout the website.   I like the shopping cart. I surprised to find out, after signing up to be a Premium member that many of the add on apps in the app store cost extra. This was disappointing because the shopping app by itself only accepts 2 forms of payment, Paypal and Square. I'm still trying to figure out a way to expand that.  I think I might link back to Facebook for the shopping part.  I am always making tweaks and improving the feature of the website so that it is never completely done. What do you think?   Leave suggestions in the comments and maybe I will include them in the next update. Mike

I passed!  I had so many plans for this Blog.  I know blogging is so old school.  There has been so much going on in the last few months, but the most exciting is that I started studying for the CISSP exam.  I passed the exam on July 7th and I am currently waiting for the endorsement process to complete.  This exam took several months of studying. Cybray was a huge part of my studying.  The best part is it is completely free. Check them out at: https://www.cybrary.it/ They provide training for all levels of Cyber Security. I also paid for the Boson practice exams.  http://www.boson.com Back in the day when I obtained my MCSE, CCNA, and ASE I always used the Transcender tests.  That has become Kaplan IT now.  Boson provided a great way for me to judge my progress and identify what areas I needed to concentrate on. There were a few other free resources.  I would have anything CISSP related running on Youtube.com when ever I c...
