Still the standard...

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've used APC UPS units for 30 years, and this one is an evolutionary improvement; all the features of their previous UPS systems, and rock-solid reliability. Yeah, it isn't the least expensive on the market, but considering what it's protecting, it's cheap insurance. It's survived three serious storms since I bought it, and more importantly, the system it protects wasn't even fazed. Get one - you'll like it.

Great mid-range AV Tuner
on February 14, 2015
Posted by: JoeinPrattville
from Prattville, AL
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you can live without the bells and whistles of the RX-V577 & RX-V677, this is an outstanding tuner for the price! Six HDMI Inputs, two component video inputs (one with toslink), and very good 5.1 speaker support. If you must have wireless Ethernet, the 477 has an RJ-45 jack built in, and a 802.11n adapter can be bought for less than the price difference against a 577. One caveat is that the 477 will not convert component video/audio input to HDMI output, but that's a rare requirement - if your HDTV has component video input, the 477 will bridge it component-to-component video. I'm very pleased with mine.

Great 'Marvel Universe' sideline
on February 14, 2015
Posted by: JoeinPrattville
from Prattville, AL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I grew up with Marvel Comics, so I'm glad to see them on the big screen with finally the right treatment (Iron Man series, Thor, the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and especially Captain America). But, on the other hand, an number of their 'non-mainstream' characters were ignored, even though they add to the overall complexion of the 'Marvel Universe'. This movie helps correct that oversight; while entertaining in it's own right (how many emotions can Vin Diesel put into "I Am Groot!", anyway??), a Marvel fan will see links to the 'rest of the story' (sorry, no spoilers...). Overall, I was very entertained by both the movie and the extra features - the 'gag reel' is a definite hoot. Buy it - you'll like it...

Outstanding AIO Printer
on December 26, 2014
Posted by: JoeinPrattville
from Prattville, AL
Verified Purchase:Yes
Upgraded from a HP 8500A Premium to this printer. This one is lighter, has a smaller footprint, better print quality, and doesn't require replacement of the printheads in addition to the ink. The unit has a 250-sheet paper tray and includes a duplexer as standard. Doesn't slurp its ink, either - after over a month of usage, the starter ink is still well over 75%. OEM replacement ink isn't cheap, but won't break the bank. Overall, I am very pleased with this printer.

Good batteries, with a long life

I use them in my universal remote, and they work great - other than that, they're AA-cell Alkaline batteries as good as any other top brand.

Replacement for the Harmony 700, but costs less
on November 14, 2014
Posted by: JoeinPrattville
from Prattville, AL
Verified Purchase:Yes
This remote is virtually a Harmony 700, except that it doesn't recharge its own batteries. Considering that it costs less than a 700, and works just as well, it's a bargain at the price. I was able to transfer my 700 settings over in about 5 minutes, and it controls all my devices perfectly!

Great drive for RAID1
on April 25, 2014
Posted by: JoeinPrattville
from Prattville, AL
Verified Purchase:Yes
This drive is an exact match for the Seagate 2TB drive that came in my Dell XPS 8700 - in RAID1 with a mSATA cache the performance is impressive! OTOH, the drive in the box was a st2000dm001-1ch164, and you may buy the bare drive for less elsewhere. The included SATA-III cable, SATA-to-Molex power cable adapter, SeaTools CD, and the no-BS 2-year warranty on the boxed drive does lessen the pain, though.

Harmony 700 to Harmony 650

can info for a harmony 700 be transferd to a 650 harmony with a teck coming to the house
If you use the Logitech My Harmony application on your home computer, the settings transfer over with no trouble. I know, because I've done exactly that. I don't see a need for a tech visit.
