... but that the price was right! But now I need to double-check because I'm absolutely sure I only got 6 months and yet my email to write this review States I got one year subscription which is not true.

... but I'm not digging the annual renewal versus buying the whole suite and getting updates for at least a couple years but that's just my opinion.

... the Microsoft Surface Book performance base. I'm not going to bore you with how many devices I own between Windows and Mac but this is my favorite device and now my current go to as well. No one knows me personally but exercise the 14-day return or if you're in Elite or Elite plus membership, enjoy longer return times and purchase this and you'll see for yourself. I'm not going to bore you with the specs either or any of the type of things that you can do on the Surface Book because most of you probably already done your homework and know what the device can do but I will tell you it is performs flawlessly. If any of you were reading any reviews for the 1st Gen Surface Book from October 2015 there were many firmware and driver issues. If you're like me and don't purchase 1st Gen devices you will see that out of the box and after critical updates are performed the device works as designed. My next step is to decide how many of my laptops are going to go on Craigslist! Thanks for taking the time to read my review and thank you Best Buy!

Awesome...

...my first Alienware! I know this seems weird to state but I've waited 20 years to finally grab an Alienware device! Today is my 30th day of ownership and what's really awesome is it went on sale as well today. Best Buy (BB) taking a $150.00 off the MSRP was really great! First thing on my to-do list today, which is now complete, get the adjustment on my purchase when it was $1649.99 to $1499.99!
There's so many excellent reviews for this device but I'm just having a blast with it I don't know what else to really say. I purchased Crucial RAM, upping it from 8 gigabyte to 32 gigabyte. Also purchased the Alienware Graphics Adapter from Dell for $159.99 and two days ago purchased the EVGA GTX 1070 for $449.99 and LG's 4k 27" monitor, which was on sale for $399.99, both from BB. Everything works great, no issues at all. The reason I purchased this notebook, as I'm sure many others have done so as well, is reference to the 4k display & being designed as a gaming rig. Upgrading RAM was too easy and I just ordered a secondary SSD as there is an empty slot for one more SSD, two total.
So in summary I say to you "...if you're still on the fence, go get it now, you won't regret it"
BB will be there for your needs if issues develop!
Thanks for reading my review!
PS A reminder to always check your "My Rewards" profile as BB hasn't credited my purchase & adding missing points failed as site stated record information didn't match. Time for a phone call...!

Can you subscribe to the TiVo DVR service and pay the annual fee when purchasing the Bolt at Best Buy?

Hi Mary, I'm not 100% sure but because of the serial number and other credentials for your new TiVo I'm guessing that you're out of luck there and would have to be purchased after you have your device setup.
Good luck and enjoy!

How much is the subscription

Hi, total amount is 149.00 for one year subscription. Monthly is available. It's worth it! We are really enjoying our TiVo Bolt! Good hunting on your quest...
