Almost as good as the TV version
on February 26, 2016

I was a big fan of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. when I was a kid and I was excited when I heard that they were making it into a movie. Of course when you are used to one set of actors playing characters on a show, it's a little difficult to accept other actors in those roles (like the revamped Star Trek, Wild Wild West, etc.). All in all it was a good film and I enjoyed all the extras as well.

The new Multi-Touch subsystem in the new iPad 9.7" and iPad Pro gives Apple Pencil striking capabilities alongside pixel perfect precision. Using incredibly sensitive pressure and tilt sensors, Apple Pencil instantly recognizes when you are pressing harder or shifting its angle. So you can vary line weight, create subtle shading, and produce a wide range of artistic effects — just like with a conventional pencil.

I Love My Apple Pencil but...
on January 10, 2016
Posted by: Cueball2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been using a Jot stylus for years and I couldn't lean my palm on the iPad while taking notes which makes it hard to write (and harder to read). The Apple Pencil works well with palm rejection so I can write like I was using a real pencil on paper (what's that?) My complaints are:
1- It should have come with a removable pocket clip (I had to take one from an old mechanical pencil)
2- It should use magnetic induction to charge rather than plugging it into the iPad Pro which seems like it might break off .
3 - The cap will most likely get lost after a while, either when charging it or just carrying it in a bag. It should have just been a twist or pull to extend it out for charging.
4- Where can I keep that tiny Lightning adapter where it won't get lost? What a bad idea. Jonny Ive must have had a bad day when he came up with that idea.
Don't get me wrong, I love it, but Apple Pencil 2.0 will be lots better, I'm sure.

Great collection
on December 4, 2015
Posted by: Cueball2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had seen all the movies over the years but didn't want to buy the discs separately, knowing that one day there would be an entire collection of all of them. It was worth the wait. If I had bought them separately, it would have cost way more and I wouldn't have had all the extras that are in the collection. The quality is great on Blu-Ray and the extras to me, make it really worth the money.

A pleasant movie
on July 17, 2015
Posted by: Cueball2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
Cedar Rapids is not the funniest comedy and it's not a great movie, but it's a likable, pleasant and fun movie. If you want a movie for a first date where you don't know the other person's likes and dislikes, this might be a good "starter" movie.

Do I have to have a google assistant for the google home hub to operate?

You don't need a Google Assistant but you do need a mobile phone to set it up.

iMac performance is at an alltime high with faster Intel Core processors, powerful Radeon Pro 500-series graphics, Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) connectivity, and stunning Retina 4K displays that shine 43 percent brighter and support one billion colors.
 

I'm planning to purchase this machine. Do I need to install anti-virus? What are the pros & cons?

It comes with a 30 day trial of McAfee Live Safe and will then require a subscription. As an IT professional, I recommend not using any snti-virus outside of the Microsoft Defender that is included in Windows 10. No anti-virus is 100% perfect and when you depend on an anti-virus to keep you safe, you do stupid things like opening attachments from strangers or clicking on links in emails or websites and feel you are 100% protected. The hackers trying to get you are creating new malware threats faster than the anti-virus companies can keep up with them. The only way to be safe is to be careful what you do online yourself.

Does the GPS work if I’m out of my cellular network I drive in rural areas that sometimes has no network. Connectivity I have to rely solely on GPS satellites .

No, it needs to get it’s information from your phone via Bluetooth.

Throw away your extra remotes in favor of the Logitech Harmony 665 remote control. This functional remote works with a range of devices, from basic cable to Apple TV, and can combine up to 10 remotes in one versatile unit. This Logitech Harmony 665 remote control offers one-button setup for easy incorporation with your entertainment system.
 

I don't see this model (Harmony 665) listed anywhere but at Best Buy. Is this a special version of the 650 just for Best Buy? Or is it an old discontinued model?

I saw it in the store and it's on the website - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?st=logitech+665&_dyncharset=UTF-8&id=pcat17071&type=page&sc=Global&cp=1&nrp=&sp=&qp=&list=n&af=true&iht=y&usc=All+Categories&ks=960&keys=keys
