Quick and simple performance
on July 7, 2016
Posted by: luxurytax
This is replacing my late-2007 Macbook and what an upgrade it is! I had to go with the 256GB model, since my photo, music and video library has grown so much over the past decade. I've since moved everything to external drives, but I like having the peace of mind knowing that space is available. All of my regular apps, iTunes, Word, Plex, Safari, etc. all perform excellent and look very nice on the Retina display. Speed and functionality are top-notch and running multiple apps and windows simultaneously does not hinder performance. I miss the optical CD-DVD drive, but haven't actually needed one just yet anyways. I will probably look at purchasing an external blu-ray reader in order to rip blu-rays, dvds and cds in the future. A definite highlight is the HDMI connection that allows me to connect to my 55" Samsung to use as a display. I'm sure I'll continue to find new features especially when I incorporate the new Apple TV along with my new Macbook.
Just some info on pricing: This model was on sale for $1,134.99. I used $400 in Visa gift cards from signing up previously with DIRECT TV and $25 in Reward Zone gift certificates. Also, since I used my Best Buy credit card and am an Elite member I received over 5,700 in reward points which equates roughly to $23 in rewards.

This combo pack contains 1 black ink cartridge and 1 tricolor ink cartridge, so you can easily replace both cartridges in select HP printers at the same time. The ink produces clear, crisp results for high-quality prints. HP Verified Online Supplies Reseller ›

Nice updates with the iPhone 6S
on February 24, 2016
Posted by: luxurytax
I like the larger screen iPhone and am enjoying my upgrade from my iPhone 4. I'm not a fan of AT&T's Next program, where you are basically paying full price for the phone except over a long period of time. I miss the days of pay a $200 upgrade fee and moving on with a new phone. I'm glad I went the 64GB as now I have plenty of space for my music, movie and photos and never have to worry about deleting stuff to make room. Also, I'll probably be keeping the phone for quite awhile considering the hefty price tag.

Masterful Album
on June 19, 2015
Posted by: luxurytax
Metal is certainly experiencing a welcomed resurgence with quite a few stellar albums coming out. I've never really listened to or been interested in Behemoth, but I'm glad I checked this album out. It is a cohesive LP that delivers throughout. The hellish lyrics, operatic vocals and layered instrumentation make this so enjoyable.

Los Santos: a sprawling sun-soaked metropolis full of self-help gurus, starlets and fading celebrities, once the envy of the Western world, now struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic uncertainty and cheap reality TV. Amidst the turmoil, three very different criminals plot their own chances of survival and success: Franklin, a former street gangster, now looking for real opportunities and serious money; Michael, a professional ex-con whose retirement is a lot less rosy than he hoped it would be; and Trevor, a violent maniac driven by the chance of a cheap high and the next big score. Running out of options, the crew risks everything in a series of daring and dangerous heists that could set them up for life.Grand Theft Auto V is the largest and most ambitious game Rockstar Games has yet created and takes full advantage of every ounce of processing power available in the current generation of consoles. In order to provide the best possible experience for such a massive and detailed world, the game will have installation requirements on the PlayStation 3 system. Grand Theft Auto V ships on one disc and will install content as soon as you insert the game. The install is roughly 8GB, and players will be able to play as soon as the install is complete.

Classic 90's alt metal album
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: luxurytax
Rage against the machine imo is one the greatest bands of all time. High energy, politicized lyrics, a blend of hip hop, hard rock and inventive and instantly recognizable guitar work. This is a classic album with catchy hooks and memorable songs that never get old.

A thrilling astral experience for my ears!
on February 10, 2015
Posted by: luxurytax
What a fantastic album! The compositions are grand with frantic, precise and thrilling instrumentation. This album represents the ethereal part of their concept cycle so far. The storytelling is very interesting, dealing with Rasputin and astral travel and deals in part with the passing of the drummers sister, Skye (hence the album title) at the tender age of 14, so some lyrics do carry a deeper emotion meaning. This is definitely an enjoyable offering from Mastodon for any fan.

A great farewell album from an amazing band.
on January 7, 2015
Posted by: luxurytax
This appears to be the final album that The Mars Volta will release. The tracks are not as frantic and intense as some of their past work, but the grand compositions are just as captivating and exciting. I think this is their most accessible record, so for newcomers this is a great start.

iPhone 5 features a 4" Retina display, the powerful A6 chip, an 8.0MP iSight camera with panorama, ultrafast wireless, iOS 6 and iCloud. Yet it's the thinnest, lightest iPhone ever.
