So far so good

Only had this for a few days (at time of review), but this is a nice tablet. Right now, Windows 8.1 is NOT terribly friendly with tablets, in my opinion. Apple's iOS and Google's Android are far superior. However, Win8.1 let's you run all those 'other' programs that you just can't do in iOS or Android environments. This Lenovo is a pretty good compromise. The battery life is fantastic. The screen is crisp.
The 'touch' screen works very well. It includes a bluetooth keyboard with a built-in touchpad; the only gripe with the keyboard is that the touchpad can sometimes be a bit finicky. Every so often it will shoot off to a corner of the screen or not register a click, but on the whole, it's about 98% there.
The Atom processor isn't terribly powerful, but I was actually to play a couple [not terribly demanding] games off Steam. Minecraft worked, too, but don't think you're going to mod it up with craziness and run at an acceptable framerate.
The 2GB of RAM is key. I tried an HP Stream 7 tablet, but that screen was too small to work with Win8.1, and the 1GB RAM and anemid WiFi made it a chore to use. The Lenovo can actually see a 5GHz network and it gets download speeds comparable to any of my other devices/phone/computer/etc...
In all, if you need to run some full Windows programs and want great battery on a really nice screen for a great price, this table fits the bill. No doubt a Surface 3 would be better, but you'll be paying 4-5 times the price.

Whether you're running from mindlessly vicious zombies, engaging in tactical warfare or traveling through space to other galaxies, the gaming world is, by definition, full of challenges and obstacles. If it was easy, then what would be the point? Gaming has evolved so much that you need more than just honed skills to survive these difficult scenarios. You need complete command of your senses. When the action gets intense, you can't just rely on sight, you need to harness the power of sound. A single footstep might be all that warns you of an approaching enemy soldier. Distant moans and growls may be the only things that alert you of the pack of zombies up ahead. The stunningly clear, deeply immersive soundscape painted by the power of this Afterglow Wireless Dolby 5.1 Headset may be exactly what you need to excel in the gaming sphere.With an awe-inspiring acoustic performance brought to you by the Dolby 5.1 technology, this headset turns a game into something much more — something you don't just do. Something you experience. Three audio modes, Dolby 5.1 Audio, Pure Audio and Immersive, make it simple to achieve the sound settings that make you feel like a true part of the action. When you're lost in the gaming world , the built-in battery ensures the headset will be there for at least 10 hours. In between sessions, display and charge the headset on the included Wireless Dolby Tower — with the customizable prismatic lighting, you'll want to show off the headset's sleek appearance. Form and function combine in one amazingly powerful headset to bring you a sound experience that really elevates your game.

Bought it to couple my cable modem line to the outside line (in my attic).
Works fine and I get pretty much full speed on 100Mb cable internet.
No issues.

Once your masterpiece is complete, open it up for your friends to explore in four-person co-op play. With tons of additional characters to collect, powers to unlock and magic to create, you've only just begun your journey into Infinity.With the fierce and Frozen power of winter on your side, you're well-equipped to take on anything that comes your way. This Elsa figure features the powerful cold shoulder that lets you unleash a frosty freeze ball to keep yourself safe from enemies on every epic Disney Infinity journey you take.

Can you use the tv usb port?

You could probably use it for charging the headset, but that's all.

Enjoy exceptional audio with this 45-inch Vizio 5.1 sound bar, which offers plug-and-play operation. It comes with Vizio SmartCast preinstalled, which lets you cast from most popular applications and use your smartphone to control your television. Pair your Vizio 5.1 sound bar with other SmartCast products for a true multi-room experience.
 

How are the satellite speakers connected to the system? Are they wire connected? I'm interested in this system if I don't have to run a wire to connect them. I'm looking to minimize wiring that I have with my current system.

The front soundbar has a power plug, then connects to your TV via HDMI or optical.

The subwoofer goes at the back of your room and has a power plug. The rear surround speakers each have one (long) wire that connects to the subwoofer.

That's it.

Can you hook this up to a 4K HDTV with HDMI ARC without losing 4K signal (HDCP 2.2 compliant)?

No, you can't. The pass-through only supports 1080P. Disappointing, and I can't fathom why.

if the op systems failsm how can I re-load? Comes with CD O/S? Inputs?

Can I loan my softwares on this model? Via which port? Does O/S come in a CD with the device?
If you want to reload Windows, there's a feature built in to Windows in the control panel called Recovery. You can either "refresh" Windows and keep all your programs, or you can have it restore Windows like this just came out of the box (i.e. it'll get rid of all your stuff).

If you want to load other software, either download it or you can get a full size USB by purchasing an OTG (on the go) cable. You can get the cable for a few dollars.

I want to be able to print wirelessly. What printer(s) are recommended with the Yoga 2?

Any printer that will work with Windows 8.1 will work. This is the full-up operating system. If the printer works with your desktop or laptop, it'll work with this tablet.

Does the Yoga 2 Have a Full size USB port?

The pictures appear to show a Full Size USB port, yet I can't find any documentation confirming (or denying) it.
No, the Yoga 2 Tablet 10" with Windows does not have a full sized USB port. However, you can get an OTG adapter (that goes from Micro-USB to full size USB) for a few dollars. I got a 2-pack of OTG adapters for like $6.99.

how do you charge them

Mini-HDMI (not micro-hdmi)

There is a LONG cable included in the box, or use your own. It's also the same cable that charges a PS3 controller. The PS4 controllers, however, use micro-hdmi.
