great performance. range. rock solid.
on May 21, 2016
Posted by: skylog
This a high end, extreme performance router that delivers on what it claims to. Worth. Every. Penny.
It is fast, stable and provides excellent coverage with outstanding range. I do not have the largest living space, but with its Beamforming Tech it easily fills every corner, every odd space with a strong signal. I am finally able to get what i pay for with my ISP by getting the most out of my available bandwidth. That in itself provides uncommon value. Further, it does very well when there are multiple devices connected to the network. I did not see any of my devices, some of them being older, competing for signal as they all were humming along without lag.
Set-up was a breeze and the available mobile app (for both Apple and Android) was great for both monitoring as well as managing the router. It was a nice change for me to be able to handle these tasks on my phone.
As for the router itself, it is simply an impressive looking piece of technology. It has 8 antennas, is built like a rock and has some nice weight to it. It has a bit of heft, it "feels" good. It also comes packed in a box with padded foam on all sides. A nice touch, giving one some confidence it will not arrive DOA due to shipping issues.
Overall, I am impressed with this router.
- Excellent performance (gaming, VoIP, Skype, video...)
- Excellent stability (many devices can work concurrently, well)
- Excellent range (provides blanket coverage)
- Solidly built
- Smartphone App availability (Apple and Android)
- 3 year warranty / 3 year tech support

does everything i need, looks great doing it

I am typically a Windows user, and not typically a laptop user. That said, when I went to purchase one, I went with this. It is light, fast, and a real workhorse. The retina display is simply beautiful. I am highly satisfied, and I believe most will be as well.

a good and fun movie that you pretty much know what you are getting when you go in for a watch. it looked great and was done well. the story may not be for everyone, but you pretty much know what you are getting going in. it is a fun time and worth a watch if this is your thing or what you are in the mood for.

i know many people do not like this remake, but i, for one, enjoy it. i thought it was done well and looked great. as for the steel itself, yes, it is not as ground breaking as many others, but it is solid and is a nice addition to my collection.

presented for the fan, but interesting regardless

Verified Purchase:Yes
the interviews take a great in-depth look at each song from so, from peter, other musicians, editors, collaborators, producers, etc. these interviews lend great hand to the understanding of this album, and why it took a full year to complete.
there is also great footage of videos and concerts, which are essential to a review such as this. that said, the picture of those could be better. while the quality of the interview segments are perfect, the quality of the non-interview footage is VHS quality. while I understand this old footage won't look perfect, it was significantly below standard. just keep this in mind.
as a fan, this is a must purchase!

What's great about it: nice insight
What's not so great: extras are thin. picture is not top-notch

about time! looks great...fans rejoice

Verified Purchase:Yes
this is a popular show amongst fans, many who have old VHS copies, that looks and sounds outstanding. it is a good show that gives a great representation of a gabriel show in that era.
it is definitely worth noting, we finally get to see and hear youssou n dour's complete opening set with his band le super etoile de dakar which, alone, might be worth the discs's price.
if you a fan, you will love it!

this is a great product that does what you expect. the setup is very easy and it does what is advertised. as time goes on, it will only be able to do more as more content providers get on board. if you know what you are getting, there is no reason not to buy this for the price.

an exceptional glimpse into the world of sushi
on July 19, 2013
Posted by: skylog
from PA
Verified Purchase:Yes
this is a documentary about obsession, compulsion and a samurai-like focus towards perfection in one's craft- all elegantly wrapped in layers of humility. this is a portrait of eighty-five year old sushi master jiro ono. It offers insight into his life and the inner workings of his prestigious humble little 10-seat sushi bar sukiyabashi jiro. his story is beautifully told and artfully filmed. recommended, especially if you have any interest in the culinary world.

this movie is not for everyone. you will either love it or hate. i wasn't expecting much, but I was quite surprised and impressed by this film. the acting is on point and the soundtrack is quite good. it fits the movie well. there's love and action and violence. i can't really say exactly why, but I absolutely love this movie.

they made this classic in blu-ray, what could be better? as well as looking crisp and certainly better than it ever has, they have included a great number of fun extras! i am very happy with this purchase. i am glad to see that they are making these older classic movies in blu-ray!
if you want a laugh, you can't go wrong!
