Very poor

I bought this printer on based on my own experience with HP printers and the good reviews of this printer. I tried twice. I wanted to like the printer. It had all the features I needed, wifi, IOS compatibility, fax scan, color cheap ink.
But the first one I got the top feeder wouldn't work. Took it back and got another one just like it. This time the top feeder worked and the printer worked great. But it stopped working suddenly and wouldn't even turn on. It was DOA for no reason.
So I'm off to look at another printer. It probably isn't gonna be an HP and certainly not this model.

Excellent little keyboard
on August 21, 2016
Posted by: Diver165

I love this little keyboard. It is compact and lightweight and functions perfectly!
I bought this keyboard to use in my workshop. I wanted a simple, all in one compact keyboard. I didn't want to worry about loosing the mouse or cords of any kind. This item fits the bill. First off, it's a Logitech. IMHO Logitech is the 'go to' as far as mice, keyboards and remotes. I own quite a few and have had zero problems. Secondly, this keyboard is small, but still quite functional as far as typing. The touch pad (I'm usually not a fan of them) works perfectly. I hooked the keyboard up to a PC running Windows 10. It was immediately recognized and started working. So no compatibility issues whatsoever. Another thing I liked is the keyboard doesn't have those little plastic feet that flip down. They always seem to get broken off. The keyboard has rubber feet and is thick enough to allow the perfect typing height.
I can't say enough good things about this keyboard. I really like it. I think I will pick up another for my security camera server. The on/off switch allows me to turn off the keyboard so I don't waste batteries. (OH btw, batteries are included too!)
The only thing I don't like about this keyboard is the packaging. BE careful!!!! The keyboard USB dongle is very small and tucked into the lip of the packaging. Very easy to over look and throw away after unboxing.

Good Performance Great Price

This switch runs all of my POE cameras for my home security system. It is a solid performer. No problems with this switch at all. I have 7 POE Cameras connected to it and all are running smoothly. If I were to complain about something would be the fan noise. It isn't terrible. But it is noticeable. Fortunately I have everything tucked away in the laundry room. So unless you're washing close you'll not hear it. But other than the fan noise this is a great switch. Couple the performance with the lifetime Buffalo Wireless warranty and it can't be beat!

Incredible Video Quality
on August 10, 2014
Posted by: Diver165

I never have been a fan of the GoPro cameras because I always thought the form factor of the camera itself was really clumsy. When I needed another POV camera for my Rzr I bit the bullet and purchased the GoPro Hero 3 Black. The main reason I got the Hero 3 Black was the remote control from your smart phone capability. I must say it works perfectly!!! I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 and the GoPro App work flawlessly. You do have to put the camera in a "standby" type mode with the WiFi on so you can start and stop it. (makes sense) And it does use up the battery much faster. But it beats manually controlling the camera or editing hours of useless footage. I am really impressed by this little camera. The resolution on the GoPro is top notch. The video is smooth as silk. I like it a lot. I just hate the form factor. I don't think I'll ever go to like that about it.

Simply incredible
on August 10, 2014
Posted by: Diver165

I read all the reviews from Best Buy and other web sites. I decided to take the plunge and try a wireless speaker system. I was skeptical about these small systems. I really wanted something that could deliver good sound. Anyone can buy a battery operated radio for 30.00 and listen to music. I wanted the music to sound good! I've had other Bose products before. I knew the quality the name carries. This little speaker lives up to the Bose name. The sound is simply incredible. There is actual bass!!! No it doesn't boom like an amp'ed up car stereo. But there is noticeable base to the music. The sound actually does a good job of filling up the room too. I'm really impressed by this little thing. I struggled to come up with a "con" when writing this review. The closest thing I could come up with is the weight. The speaker isn't much longer than a standard brick you'd find in your house (slightly more slim). When you pick it up, you know you have something substantial in your hand. The aluminum case is nice. I don't know why anyone would want to buy a skin to cover it up. But to each their own. The charging base is kinda tricky to get lined up because it's like rubberized. So that makes moving the rubber bottomed speaker a little tedious at times. But that's trivial compared to this thing's performance. It is nothing short of incredible. Buy one and try it for yourself. Oh and since we're taking this speaker camping and on vacation I highly recommend the carrying case. Which IMHO should be included.

What's great about it: Easy to pair, incredible sound, small in size
What's not so great: weight, carrying case should be included instead of an accessory

Perfect sized for home PC
on August 18, 2009
Posted by: Diver165
from WV
Look, this is a simple UPS. It is more than adequate to run the normal home PC with monitor. It is not intended to run a printer and home PC. And it is only intended to run your system for a few minutes to allow you to shut the system down.
It does provide clean consistant power to your devices. I use this model all through my house. One runs my cordless phone and VOIP adapter (will run them for almost 1hr), 1 each for my PCs (3 total with an avg run time of 10 minutes ea.). And finally one runs my cable modem, router/firewall, and my WAP. I don't get concerned if it starts to storm at my house.
APC 550VA is the bread and butter UPS. Don't waste your time and money on other brands. The only thing that is better than the APC 550VA is the next model up! LOL Now whether or not you need that capacity is up to you.
Oh and the APC 550VA integrates with windows Vista and XP SP3 with no additional software. Just plug the RJ45/USB cable in and you're ready to go! It can't get any more simple.
What's great about it: Perfect size, simple setup
What's not so great: I hate those darn right angle power cords

Does it pair and function fully with an Android Samsung cell?

NO, unless your phone has a USB port. This isn't a Bluetooth keyboard. It is a wireless 2.4GHz keyboard

My battery red light is flashing non stop, too?

My sound dock mini has been plugged in for over 6 hours now and won't stop flashing the battery light red. It also won't play any music, even though it is still plugged in? I know Bose gave a technical support number for those in America, but I'm in Canada. Mine is also only two weeks old? What to do?
Honestly? Being 2 weeks old I'd return it to where I bought it for a refund or exchange.

Do I have to have a cd drive or is there another way

If netbooks don't have dvd/cd drives do I have to by an external drive to load a program off a cd or can I perhaps transfer files by wireless from desktop computer or is there some other way to get by.
You can load your install program onto a USB thumb drive. You can also burn the install CD-ROM in ISO format onto a USB thumb drive. Plug it in and it appears as another drive with your software on it ready to install.
