Documentary was enjoyable with bonus concert footage from Presto tour. "The Garden" played as credits rolled. A fitting end to a tremendous era of music.

Your household wants to play, stream and work online all at once. With this Linksys router, you can do it all without buffering or other interruptions. Use the Smart Wi-Fi app to get started, control, and monitor your home network from anywhere.

This is a nice upgrade router. The ability to connect 12 devices with no lag is amazing. I will also put the 3.0 USB port to use with a high capacity storage device for my network. I see no difference between streaming Netflix wireless and wired through my ROKU TV in the short amount of time since I have made the upgrade to this router.

I have always been hesitant in spending extra money for a smart wireless TV but took a chance on this bargain during a sale. After one week of having this tv I would not have had buyers remorse if I had paid full price. With my savings I got the extended warranty since this is my first Hisense product and that provided peace of mind in limiting that risk. I have a 46" Samsung 1080p 120hz tv and I see no difference in quality. The Samsung is hooked to a wired smart blueray hometheater system and this Hisense ROKU wireless smart tv is faster in loading and playing internet content such as netflix and youtube and has many times the options for free an paid online content. Also, it is easy to setup and use. The home screen can be personalized and contain as little or much information you want. I had this tv out of the box mounted and fully functioning in @ 20 minutes. I will be adding some type of sound system as the speakers are only moderately adequate which by the way is no different than the Samsung that I own. If this TV lasts as long as the extended warranty I will be complely satisfied and will not hesitate to buy another Hisense product.

I was not expecting such a good sound from a system without a powered subwoofer. I have a ten year old panasonic DVD home theater with a powered subwoofer and this system sounds just as good. I agree that suggested retail price of 399 is too much but half that price is a steal. Dont care about wireless internet i have an extra port on my network so no big deal.
What's great about it: Purchased at sale price

There is so much mind rockin sauce in this music that it keeps spilling out over the top. No other way to describe it Jacky Baby. My first listen was ok. I like Caravan and BU2B and then Headlong Flight because that really wasn't a first listen. I could only catch glimmers of the rest of the songs but the friction would only be worn by persistence. My tired mind started shape shifting to absorb what was happening in the rest of the album. It is GR8. There are no favorite songs. Just an hour of mind blowing music for your enjoyment. It's Rush. I expect it. I enjoy it. Buy this album and nurture and protect your garden.
What's great about it: extremely busy album
What's not so great: Zipp.

I consider this Time Machine version 1. Timeless Music by a Timeless Band. The Holy Triumvirate will be played in future generations long after the disgracefull halls of rock in Cleveland crumble to the ground.
What's great about it: Its RUSH!! Duh.
What's not so great: Eyns Tsvey Dray Dupa!!

Except for Bastille Day i didn't have any of these songs in updated format and I was captivated and facinated by this album so much in my youth that the sun was bursting forth over the rocky chains into the grooves of my vinyl record flooding them with light. I realized it was time to reach the digital mountain sign post on the other side. Now my windows shake, rattle, and roll once again instead of hiss, snap, and pop. Nice!
What's great about it: Unbelievable bargain included free shipping

The world will not be the same when the holy triumvirate stop creating such wonders. Purchase this DVD. Turn up the volume and enjoy the Time Machine. It is way cheaper than a concert ticket and the view is much better. I was in the top row with my back to the wall at the Q with a pair of binoculars for this concert but hey I was there :>)

A different kind of Scorpions concert

Saw them in 83 San Diego and had ringing in my ears for 2 days. This is a different way to enjoy some great Scorpions tunes. Not my favorite Orchestra / Band concert (Yes Symphonic) but a good one for the collection.
What's great about it: Good music with added dimension
What's not so great: Songs seemed to be extended just to fill space.

Hopefully you have seen this band at least once live. Only then will you be able to play this movie in 20 years for your grandchildren and relay your own story about the time you saw Rush live. Don't miss this movie and by all means do not miss the Time Machine Tour. I took my daughter last fall after watching this movie and I am going again this spring with my brother and his wife who couldn't stand Rush back in the late 70's. This movie will open alot of eyes and ears that have been closed for the past 30 + years to the most talented 3 piece band the world has ever known.
What's great about it: It sums up the bands history and motivation
What's not so great: A realization that we are all getting older "Time Stand Still"

Is this just a monitor, or does it actually have a TV tuner built it?
I was concerned with your question too before I bought it thinking I may have to use one of my old digital tuners from when the change from analog was made. It has a tuner and a coax input for cable or antenna. With the antenna hooked up I am able to get all of the channels that I can get with the other tv's in my house. The programing of the tuner for the stations is about twice as fast as my one year old samsung tv and 10 times as fast as my 8 year old panasonic tv and those old conversion tuner boxes. I was up and running both over the air and streaming internet content in 20 minutes from the time i opened the box. you will not be disappointed.

Geek Squad install hardware when buying a computer.
I was wondering if it costs extra if I was to buy a computer from Best Buy and have additional hardware installed from the Geek Squad.
Yes. Save your $ and do it yourself. Research manufacture product specifications to make sure you are buying and installing the right stuff. Videos demonstrating upgrades are available online. Remember, the bigger the case the easier job you will have unless you have tweezers for hands.
