Whatcha up too?

Read your comment above again. The way it's written, it's saying that your tablet is good for everything except for the things you use it for. A missing comma can completely change the meaning. :)

OK... now let's not be the grammar police :) besides I don't follow :) lol..


What he means is this ..... besides what I use it for.....

Besides, what I use it for....:)

Ha, ha. Not being the grammar police (I can't imagine even trying to do that in this thread...it would be the most frustrating thing ever :p). I just think it's funny that a single missing comma makes it mean the exact opposite of what was intended. :D
 
I totally got you bsweetness. That one comma changes everything.

"Besides everything I use it for" is the same as "except for everything I use it for"

As opposed to...

"Besides, everything I use it for" which would be the same as "anyway, everything I use it for"

And I probably just confused the h@#$ out of everyone even more.
