Simple to Setup
on February 8, 2015
Posted by: RiverWayne
from Bloomington, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Play 3 Sonos speaker was easy to setup. I have it paired in stereo with another Play 3 along with a Play Sub and for music the speakers/sub sound great and being wireless makes setup quick and easy. For movies I would have to say they sound clear and loud enough; however, there is a hall (echo) effect that I cannot eliminate.

This speaker has a very nice clean sound with adequate base response given its size. It matches the docking station for Microsoft Surface Pro 3 perfectly and I had no problem pairing it with my Surface Pro.

Customizable Color Scheme and Easy To Program
on January 24, 2015
Posted by: RiverWayne
from Bloomington, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Thermostat was easy to install and program. For complete control of system it does require a 5 wire line; otherwise, you can use 4 wires and lose stand alone control of system fan. Using 4 wire requires some wire changing inside the furnace at the panel but the instructions are easy to follow.

Good surge protector for price

I got this item on markdown. The surge protection is moderate, the protector is sturdy and has multiple outlets. I choose it over the Insignia brand for the surge protection was much stronger and the item about the same price (as marked down).

Nice Basic Wireless Keyboard
on December 1, 2014
Posted by: RiverWayne
from Bloomington, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a basic wireless media keyboard sold by Microsoft. It is sturdy and works nicely with Windows 8.1. The keys are quiet. The biggest weakness is the mouse trackpad; it is not the best and I myself use a separate mouse.

Nice Basic Mouse Pad
on December 1, 2014
Posted by: RiverWayne
from Bloomington, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a basic fabric mouse pad with rubber backing and is fairly priced. What I like about it is that it is a neutral basic color (the shade of blue is nice) without some scene on the fabric. I did note that the edge closest to my palm started to show the slightest fraying after a few weeks of use.

Back up important data with this 250GB Samsung solid-state drive. Its V-NAND technology uses a 3D, stacked layout to maximize storage capacity while minimizing bulk, and it has no moving parts, so it's less susceptible to physical damage and drive failure. This Samsung solid-state drive operates quietly to reduce disturbances.
 

Does this include a screw to secure it?

This SSD does not include a screw. Screws for mounting SSD's of this type come with the motherboard or the device you are installing it in. I have purchased several M.2 SSD's of this type for installation, and no matter the brand I chose (usually, but not always, Samsung) none of them included the mounting/holding screw.

Easily navigate Web sites, menus and your media with this 21.5" Dell S2240T LED monitor, which features a 10-point multitouch display for simple operation. The 1920 x 1080 maximum resolution delivers striking high-definition visuals.
 

Include stand?

Does purchase of this monitor include the stand shown in picture?
The stand comes already attached to the monitor but is removable. The monitor can be wall mounted once the stand is detached from the monitor (requires the removal of two screws). The stand is metal (aluminum I assume) and is sturdy and the one I have seen in photos of the monitor.

Mount screen

Can this screen be mounted like a TV? Does it have the normal 4 screw attachments on the back? Could not see this on the picture listed.
The monitor can be mounted using a standard VESA mount (100 mm).

It will work but you will need a minidisplay port to HDMI adapter.

dual monitor

If I already have an iMac, can I use this as a dual monitor?
You can use this monitor with an Imac as a second display if the Imac has a video out port. I assume it does, so you would need a mini-display port to HDMI adapter. Even though you can use the monitor as a second display, keep in mind touch will not work with Mac OS X (a limitation of the OS and not the monitor).

Will the "touch" portion work with my mac mini?

No, not unless you're running Windows 8.1 on your Mac Mini. The Mac Desktop OS currently does not support touch. This is a limitation of the OS and not a fault of the monitor.

Why is touch not working with my MacBook Pro, OSX 10.9?

My S2240T displays nicely as a second monitor for my MacBook Pro, however touch is not working — it might as well be a much cheaper, non-touch screen.

The included Drivers and Documentation disc does not include a Mac driver, nor does the 100+ page manual mention "Apple" or "Mac" even once. Does Dell not support Mac? Or even acknowledge its existence?
Mac OS X for the Desktop does not currently support touch capabilites; this is something Apple current has not designed into their Desktop OS and not a limitation of the monitor.

Can I plug in a Keyboard?

You cannot plug in any USB peripherals directly into the monitor; the USB port that is built in is to enable the touch capability only. The 23 inch version of this monitor as well as the Acer 23 inch do have USB ports built into the monitor.
