Good for the "light traveler" with laptops

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this for my aunt, at her request. While it's not a case I would buy for myself--my laptop and all its gear fill a large catalog case--if all you need is your laptop, the power brick and maybe 1-2 external drives or a similar volume of small accessories it works well.
Cannot really give a "Would or Would Not Buy Again" as is my standard bottom-line since it was a case of a relative telling me "I want THIS specific item," but so far my aunt seems more than satisfied with it so I guess that scores as a "Leans Toward Would Buy Again".

What's great about it: not a lot of bulk, affordable, seems pretty durable
What's not so great: Limited space for accessories
I would recommend this to a friend!

This set contains the third season of the drama series Rizzoli & Isles, a run of shows that found the two title characters having to overcome interpersonal issues between each other in order to continue solving crimes.

Good continuation of the series

Bought this for my mother, who's a serious Rizzoli & Isles fan (though not serious enough to try the books). She hasn't unwrapped it yet, but since we caught most of this season first-run on TNT at her insistence, I don't expect her to be disappointed. Bruce McGill's contrary, snarky old coot as Korsak is always good for a laugh, though with the passing of Lee Thompson Young that's going to mean some changes later and the show won't be quite the same for a bit.
Would definitely buy again.

Great way to get a lot of Styx for not much $

Bought this for my mother, who's been a fan since they were first recording. Overall she liked it, her only regret was that it didn't include a DVD of their recent concert that aired on one or another of the cable channels.
Bottom line, if I hadn't bought it she would've, so I guess that scores in the "Would Buy Again" category.

The Queen of Blades no longer exists and Sarah Kerrigan has been restored to her human form. The Swarm is without a leader, scattered into several broods throughout the Koprulu sector. Yet all is not well. The artifact Jim Raynor used may have set Kerrigan free, but she still seems bent on assembling the Zerg broods, even without the terrible powers of the Queen of Blades. Is vengeance still on her mind? Or does Sarah Kerrigan have a new purpose? Will she be able to restore her strength and regain control of the Swarm? Or will Emperor Arcturus Mengsk finally be able to take out his weakened enemy?BradyGames' official Collector's Edition strategy guide to StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm doesn't merely lead you through the dramatic second installment of the StarCraft saga, it immerses you in its dark and mysterious world. The stunningly composed hardcover book features holographic foil enhancements portraying Kerrigan, the former Queen of Blades, in all of her newly freed glory. And that's only the outer cover. On the inside, discover page upon page — 400 in all — of in-depth tactics and expert analyses of the journey that stands before you. Venture confidently into the new, unforeseen mission with guidance from the all-new Beginner's Guide section, which details all of the fundamental skills you'll need to master, through a unique, step-by-step, video augmentation method. Continue to excel throughout your entire campaign, following comprehensive instructions for each mission, key battle and bonus objective in the game. Enter every single- and multiplayer realm fully prepared, thanks to complete maps and strategies for each one, including expanded coverage of the best multiplayer strategies available. Even the units, buildings and upgrades that are new to the series are outlined in expansive detail, so you can meet new challenges with the foresight of an expert. Outside of the game world, this Collector's Edition keeps you enmeshed in the adventure, providing you with five exquisitely crafted paperfold models featuring authentic skins from Blizzard. StarCraft II plunges you in the Heart of the Swarm. Know what to expect as Sarah Kerrigan evolves with step-by-step strategies from this Collector's Edition Guide.

Must-have companion to the CE game box
on July 3, 2013
Posted by: DiamondbackSix

Very informative, hepful bok, covering all the updates since Wings of Liberty.
The paper models, while kinda neat on their own merits and would be cool if offered separately, are a bit of a letdown compared to the easel of all the maps and hints for them that came with the Wings of Liberty CE guide--an updated version including the new maps would've been better.
Would buy again, WILL be buying the Legacy of the Void (SC2 Part 3) CE guide when it comes out--DO WISH, though, that Best Buy were better about when they listed preorders for the companion Collectors' Edition Strategy guides, being kept hanging about their availability until 6AM Pacific on Release Day when walk-in customers have had their shots since Midnight Eastern time is rather annoying, but that's an issue with how the site handles product rather than the product itself.
Bottom line, a MUST Have for any truly die-hard SC2 fan.
What's great about it: Comprehensive how-to, now with lower price
What's not so great: Paper models as "bonus" a bit of a letdown
I would recommend this to a friend!

Essential accessory for any WD portable drive!

Verified Purchase:Yes
One of those must-have accessories that I buy every time I buy a Western Digital portable drive. Neatly snuggles the drive and its cable inside, doesn't take a lot more space than the drive itself.
Does NOT work well with Seagate GoFlex Portables, as their "modular" USB2.0/USB3.0/FireWire/eSATA/what-have-you adapters add a lot of length that sticks out the top.
WILL be buying more of these, as long as the drives I've selected as my "De Facto IT Standard" continue to fit inside them.

What's great about it: Fits WD Passports like a glove
What's not so great: Doesn't fit Seagate portable drives well

Keep your laptop cool and working efficiently with this Cooler Master NotePal X3 cooling pad that fits most laptops with up to a 17" display and features an integrated USB hub for easily connecting peripherals.

Big and clunky but superior cooling

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought it on a Deal of the Day, when it was exceptional value for the money. Keeps my old beast of a Dell Inspiron (mixed 9300/XPS Gen 2) running at steady temps of about 110 CPU, 105 GPU, 95 RAM no matter what so far. Has an integrated cable-management system, which helps with stowing the cable.
Downside: it's not really portable unless you carry your laptop in a HUGE backpack or a small suitcase (I use a catalog-case BARELY within airport carry-on limits and had to gut my gear load to make room), "Built-In USB Hub" only replaces the port used to power the pad rather than allowing the expansion of a true USB hub. Cable-management depends on the cable being JUST the right length (mine's a little long).
Bottom line: Would I buy it again? At the price I paid (~$20), ABSOLUTELY. At full price, I'd probably have to think on it a while, though Cooler Master usually makes pretty good hardware. As high as halfway, maybe even 3/4-way between those two prices, I probably would still buy again.
What's great about it: Good airflow, cools both machine and user hands
What's not so great: As big as a 17" laptop; USB "hub" more like a "pass-thru"
I would recommend this to a friend!
