Absolutely unnecessary…but just added…
To my ever growing zwift lab.
With sauce overlay often making native UI difficult to get to and most stuff buried in sub menus. Been pulling all the stuff I want one the stream deck.
Got a bike swap sub folder should it be needed for ZRL.
Quick rear view camera.
Sure theres more to do as I learn
You should get a job in IT 
Yup. And mine takes up to 15mins.
Great user experience for the casual rider 
Are you on dial up internet or something?
I get updates on average every 2/3 weeks and they take a couple of minutes 
He’s probably got 80286 CPU
With 640kb RAM because that will always be plenty
@Poet firing up his Zwift supercomputer
I had a ride last week where it had me at 4.9w/kg; that cannot be right. I am usually 4.2 maybe 4.3 on a good day (and have been around 4.0 more recently). Not sure if it was my Assiomas and the temperature; pretty sure I calibrated them before the ride. It has me as A+ atm 
I have no idea what that means🤷🏼
I’ve an AppleTV, with 68MBPs internet via copper cable ‘cos it’s well mint round here 
Cabinet is opposite my house, I can see it from where I’m sat.
Bloody OpenReach are there nearly every bloody day fiddling with it and parking on the grass, churning it all up, like it’s a damn council estate 
No, I do not
There’s your problem. The experience on Apple TV is pants
That was the ride/race I was in Jamie. It looked like you kept sticking on high watts chasing me down?
There was something odd going on; it’s annoying as I’ll never get back to B at this rate 
I have an old John Lewis voucher that I was going to trade in for an Apple TV for the garage. Mainly to be able to use a wired connection for when the wireless is being temperamental. At the moment I’m using an iPad and find it mostly hassle free. On the occasions wifi is playing up, hotspot from my phone is good enough to keep it going.
At least with an iPad you can update the app when not in the garage with a poor connection. Maybe just stick with iPad and find something else to spend the voucher on.
I meant compared to even a low end PC. The graphics and functionality isn’t great but I guess it’s convenient if you don’t want to mess around with computer parts.
You can get a cable to allow you to plug ethernet into the ipad. Cant charge at the same time of course.
A dedicated garage PC would have the same update issue - only gets turned on when wanting to ride, so not going to be ready to go as quickly as the iPad. It might have fancier graphics, but I am riding without my glasses on, and usually watching some Netflix trash on another screen anyway.
The times I have forgotten to plug the iPad in, you find out Zwift runs the battery down pretty quickly. Would have thought there would be a passthrough option for power somewhere.
Yeah possibly. Im not very upto speed on Apple stuff as I prefer android but I remember being in a meeting once with rubbish Wifi and someone using an iPad with an ethernet.
Alexa, turn on GarageComputer, or scheduled wake up’s… all sorts of ways
All the USB C / Thunderbolt iPad’s can be used with a dock with passthrough power, just look for whatever @gingerbongo buys over on that PC thread for but require ethernet on it.
