Oh goodness, that made me feel a little nostalgic! xD Looks like a combination of a RAZR and a Blackberry Pearl Flip. I still have my suuuuper old RAZR phone, still in working condition, haven't bothered recycling it.

You mean China. :)

Oh, and these phones are ridiculously expensive for the novelty factor.

At least there's nothing stopping you from using a smartphone as a phone, but wouldn't it be a waste of money if it's not a low-end phone?
Yep, a wast of money. Which is quite frankly why I'm excited for my new phone. Paycheck still hasn't come in for me to buy it yet, but when it does...

There are some things I will miss about 4.3 on my Nexus 7.. a few of my apps stopped working properly after the KitKat upgrade, and they still have yet to update :(

Meanwhile I'm still waiting for 4.3 on AT&T Galaxy note 2.
I'm sure CM has one unofficially for that if they have an official one for the Verizon Note II. Nothing official yet but they have 4.3 in nightly format -- http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=t0lteatt

This is the only thing I miss about android, but god I miss it so much. DAMN YOU APPLE

Is CM11 still at a nightly?
Yeah, it was just started a month ago. It's so smooth though.

There are so many non-stock Android ROMs out there I'm not sure what I should try out when I do lose the warranty on my tablet.

Eh, the farthest I'd go with decking out android would be with a launcher, and that's it. Custom firmware's is something I'd do only when I know the ins and outs of android.

Although it may not seem like it, there are actually some benefits with rooting on Android, and that's mainly customization. If I were to root my tablet, I could enable the tablet UI on my Nexus 7, which is something Google doesn't patch in the Nexus 7, but rather only the phablet UI.

Wait, what's the difference between tablet and phablet? Is it the position of the main keys from the center to the left?
A phablet is a phone/tablet hybrid, like the Samsung Galaxy Note I, II, and III. Phablet mode is when you have the nav bar on the bottom at the status bar on the top. This has become standard in all Google tablets. Tablet mode is when the nav bar and status bar are unified and has been discontinued.

Hmmm i`ll give this a try who has built a desktop? my brother builds em a lot im building
my first one.
I have -- just be sure everything is compatible and be sure when you're seating the CPU on the motherboard to use a good amount of thermal paste on the CPU. You don't want to misapply that. I applied mine years ago and it's still solid.

Phablet is essentially the phone UI on a tablet.. except that you have the tablet notification bars instead of the single phone UI bar, but the notification bar is small and at the top like a phone.

It all depends on what you want. Mid range you'd go for an i5, high end an i5. After that, the GPU, motherboard, casing, cooling system, ram, and case are dependent on what you need the PC for.

Building a PC is all about how you want your computer to run, and not just something that someone tells you to build.. what are you trying to build? Are you building a PC for gaming? Perhaps excessive video production? You're gonna need different pieces of hardware for whatever your custom PC's purpose is.
