This is a decent Surge protector power strip. It does what is expected. Nothing to special so I am not going to praise it. No issues found yet.
It works, I recommended it if you just need a power strip/surge protector.

This is a good quality headset for just the stock headset. Over time though it will degrade.
My self and a friend have had to buy a spare because the wire near the connector had degraded internally and transmits static when the wire is moved or touched. It is very annoying for the other end.
I do recommend this for a low price. But even though I took the best care and it looked brand new, I did have to buy another due to the bad wires.

So this is a really great camera. First thing my friends said when i skyped them was, "Wow!! High quality video!" It made me laugh but it was true, It is the best web camera I have now.
I highly recommend this for Skype, Twitch streamers, online interviews or business calls.

I love this monitor, I have 2 of them and they look amazing on my desktop. They picture is great, and the 1ms GTG response time is awesome for gaming. Just make sure you have desktop speakers. The built in speakers are not good at all, and the audio out jack has a constant buzz when using. So if you have speakers coming directly from your computer, This is worth the purchase.

This helps a ton when watching videos. You don't even have to pair it with you Xbox. It is instant so you don't have to wait for the controller to turn on. It is nice when the audio is loud and voice commands are not an option. It has easy to use buttons.

This futuristic release includes the complete eleventh season of the sci-fi series Red vs. Blue, following the bizarre adventures of two equally inept armies as they battle for a section of galactic real estate known as the "Blood Gulch."

Best Xbox One Game out right now!
on March 14, 2014
Posted by: NicholasVK
from Virginia
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love this game. It is like Battlefield, call of duty, Halo, and Unreal Tournament all meet in 1000 years and made one super game. It is awesome. If you like any of the above games, you most likely will like this game. It also had amazing Mech battle fights. I cant recall any of the Mech games of the top of my head but this has much better combat than any I have played. If you have an Xbox One or a PC, and you want a new game. I highly recommend this to anyone. It is a blast of fun. Short, mid, Long range combat is all fun. Wall running is done so well that it feels like every other game is just missing something. The maps are all very different and enjoyable. The balance between the power of Titans, and Pilots is perfect.
If you don't have an Xbox One yet, you can get a bundle of the Xbox One with Titanfall for free. Or just get it for PC, its just as fun.

What's not so great: Have not had any major issues yet. Just very few game modes.

Capture vivid photos and videos with this Canon EOS Rebel T5 DSLR camera that features 18.0-megapixel CMOS sensor that captures up to 5184 x 3456 resolution for high-quality images. The wide array of shooting modes let you optimize your shots to suit your needs.Memory card sold separately.
 

Do you take trade-ins of older model Canon DSLR cameras on purchase of new camera.

From my experience they do not take camera trade in. The do recycle however. I would check your local BestBuy retailer to confirm this though. Many stores might have a different policy.

can webcam be install on compaq compters

Compaq computers are pretty old, but it depends on your Operating System. So if it has windows and a USB port. It should be fine.

Using Webcam with Projector

I need to be able to do a video feed from the webcam through a projector and have a full picture show up on a 6' screen. What features should I look for in a webcam to accomplish this?
I would recommend a high resolution webcam, One that would send at least a 1920x1080 video. That way it can be on a bigger screen with less pixel distortion from the large format. But since it is 6ft, that will have some regardless, even with a 4k display and video feed. I would recommend being around 10ft away for that large of a display as well.

Would this be good for gaming?

also, what does the white port/jack on the back do? thanks!
This is awesome for gaming, I highly recommend it. I have 2 for gaming. The ports on the back are: 2 HDMI, 1 VGA, 1 Audio in(The lighter jack), 1 Audio out(the black jack). I would avoid using any of the Audio ports. But the Picture and response time is perfect.

HDMI audio & video

Does the HDMI port on this monitor support both audio and video from a source such as a laptop? I want to avoid using the audio-in jack and only plug one cord into my laptop.
It does, but the quality is terrible. I would avoid using the monitor for any type of audio. Visually, this monitor is great. But not anything with the audio.
