Easy to install, great dashboard

Easy to install..... great dashboard... I loaded this to my MacBook Pro (2010 model).... no issues. I like the Cleaner program that comes with it... helped me locate duplicates and extra files that could be deleted to save me space.
So far I am very happy with this....

Very Happy

Very happy with the light. I use it in my office. So much better then the fluorescent lights. love the natural light. Like being able to use with my smartphone, but I wish they would have also included an on and off switch on the cord. Not always convenient to have your phone out.

GO google!!!

So this has google assistant built in. Was super easy to set up and connect to my home network right out of the box. It uses audio prompts to tell you what to do. Very cool. My kids love saying “hey google”. “Tell me a joke” and other phrases. It picks up all their voices. I was super impressed. Hey we’re half way across the kitchen and it still
Recognized them even my 3 year old. Has pretty good sound when linked to my phone. Seems like the kind of thing you might leave plugged in to take advantage of google assistant. But it is portable and waterproof. Love that I can take it to the pool and not worry a put it getting wet.

Super easy to install

So far so good. It was very easy to install. It recognized I had a version of mcafee already installed and it prompted me to remove that first. I have not seen any slowness issues since installing. I do get some pop ups that I am not always sure what to do with from the software. But it is new and I am learning how it works still. But so far I feel
Protected and like how it updates in the background using auto pilot.

Impressive Power in a sleek design
on November 30, 2017
Posted by: pMurphy
from Florida
Love It! Commercial quality in a home package. Looks great on the counter. Heavy base makes it stable when blending. Love the sealed touch area for quick cleaning. This has a 1500W, 3HP motor. A 36 oz pitcher for blending is large enough to handle jobs for our family of 6. The touch area has illuminated icons to ease of selection for cycles. It also has the pulse function which I find comes in handy from time to time.
I have had no issues blending ice and frozen fruit...
And it has an 8 year warranty. What more could you ask for.

Love the new updates

I have not used Photoshop in many years, but I am really impressed with this version. Easy to install and very intuitive. Which is something we all wan tin software these days.
There are some pretty cool features as well like the Open closed eyes in photos (copies open eyes from a photo of the same person to replace the closed eyes; replace background in seconds; add motion blur to create an action shot.... very nice additions.
This works great even if you have simple edits to do, or want to take it to another level to complete advanced edits. Whatever your desire, you should be able to complete your project with this software package.

Love the image quality
on November 14, 2017
Posted by: pMurphy
from Florida
WOW...... I already had the Arlo Pro and I added these to my exisiting setup. SUPER easy to sync to my existing system. Love the battery life. I bet I go 6 months between charges on them. The image quality is better than the first version. I set this one outside and the picture is GREAT both during the day and at night.
I like you can share their view with other members, so my wife has the app and also can keep an eye on things.
The wall mount holders are super strong.... even outside I am not worried about wind or weather affecting them.
My only complaint is when opening the app and trying to view a live image... there is a delay in the live image connecting. But it is not long, maybe only a few seconds, I just wish it could sync quicker on the initial opening of the app.
I have 4 cameras and can have them all showing live feed at the same time. Also like you get 7 days of free web recording of activity with these.
The alarm setups are customizable, for example, you can have motion detected on one camera and tell it to record another camera based on the motion activity from the first one. Pretty slick design and cant say enough about the battery life. WOW.

heavy and cheap feeling
on November 14, 2017
Posted by: pMurphy
from Florida
So I was not a fan of this vacuum. It was difficult to get out of the box and there were LOTS of parts. Fairly straight forward how they fit together, but wow, lots of parts. Instructions were okay, but the handheld part is quite heavy and the parts feel oddly cheap. I was expecting better.
Two positives are that the attachments all have a holder or place to go. which is nice. And there is a wall hook to keep it standing. Note the bottom of the vacuum must be on the ground when on the hook, it cannot support the weight of the vacuum.
It is difficult to take apart and swap attachments and when you carry it the vacuum portion wont stay folded, so it is a little awkward when you go to put it down, you have to put it down by the very front and then let the back down.
Overall just an odd design. The suction was comparable to the Shark and Dyson stick vacuums but I would prefer those over this.
One other positive is you can double tab the trigger and the power will stay on. That is a plus over the Dyson, but not enough to make me want to buy another one of these.

Wow, what a screen
on October 27, 2017
Posted by: pMurphy
from Florida
Love the large screen. Looks fabulous. For a larger chromebook I am surprised how light it is to carry. It feels like a good quality when I am carrying it, just enough weight but it is quite light for its size. I like the keyboard and typing. Sound is good too. I am used to 11" chromebooks so this was quite a step up and at first took a little getting used to. Battery life is awesome. I mainly use it for web searching, gmail, and drive type work. Not much for video streaming and the battery life is awesome.

Excellent extra charger
on October 19, 2017
Posted by: pMurphy
from Florida
Love the length, 4' was just right for my needs. Wanted a second charger and this really does an excellent job and allows me to have one at work and at home now to charge my watch.
The cable feels sturdy and doesn't look like it should fray anytime soon. That is a big bonus to me.
Great quality, should last for a long time, and it does what it advertises it will do... charges my watch.

Is this keyboard backlit at all?
No there is not any backlight. So working in low light levels would not be ideal for this keyboard.
