Which version is the Nexus 7? And if it doesn't give you loads of grief, can you let me know? When I put it on my 2012 version (the one with the single camera) it locked up often, reset itself frequently, and was a general purpose Elephanting PITA. I went back to 4.4 and it's been fine since.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Got 3 x Gen I and 1 x Gen I with SIM slot. All running 5.1.1 though not being used extensively. The Missus just plays shite games on hers, both kids had to get iPad Airs for school. I have the SIM slot one and it sits in my work bag and comes out when I have to check something that the phone won't do for or I want to piss about myself. <EDIT> I had upgraded to 5.0.2 then 5.1 prior to 5.1.1 and they all seemed to be fine. </EDIT>

I can't handle the new font. I'm not saying the old logo[^] was much better, nor the spelling[^], but I keep hovering over the logo expecting to see a tooltip that explains that the logo celebrates kids books. Sorry. :sigh: For an animated history of Google's logo just do a Google Search[^]. Clever chaps.

... shrink it to 305 bytes in its special variant[^]. And the best way way they chose was to - 'Remove all serifs'.

I don't like it either. Seems like they are drinking the kool-aid of minimalist design (flat/ugly) like MS! But...it's still free, and my search engine of choice. :)

Almost like they (Google and MS) are trying to go back to Windows 1.0.

It really isn't. I read the books to my daughters when they were younger.

I updated my Nexus 7 to Android 5.1.1 a couple of days ago, Google is still in the old font at start up. Looks much better than the new shite. Gay is the word I think you are looking for to describe it.

It's difficult to believe that a not-small group of adults masturbated together for over a week on that logo.
