I'm not impressed with this version. It's got too many "bells and whistles" that simply complicate the process of learning to type and improving typing skills.
Create, capture, edit and archive home movies and digital photos, while storing and accessing data from one DVD-R disc. A perfect companion to your DVD Handycam® camcorder, the 10DMR30RS1H 8cm DVD-R recordable discs capture all digital data brilliantly, and are large enough to hold oversized digital movie files. Store up to 1.4 GB of information or record up to 30 minutes of video in SP mode. These recordable DVDs feature AccuCORE technology which is 100x more scratch resistant than standard discs.
Work intuitively with this HP wireless mouse. It fits comfortable in your hand for all-day use, and the battery lasts up to 12 months, so you can focus on your work. The 2.4 GHz connection of this HP wireless mouse ensures instant communication with your laptop or desktop computer, eliminating lag and errant clicks.
This was my first wireless mouse purchase and I am thrilled with it. I used it for a presentation and everything was perfect, right down to the mouse. It's a bit smaller than the average "wired" ones but it works just as well if not better.

What's great about it: Easy to use and very responsive
This air purifier freshens indoor air by removing impurities in medium-size rooms. The enhanced Arm & Hammer filter tackles common household odors for cleaner air.

Great Filter
April 23, 2014
This unit circulates air better than any filter I've ever had. and it does a good job of removing odors. The only downsize is the noise factor -- noisier than any filter I've ever had. Otherwise, I would've given it 5 stars.
