Inexpensive but seems to work great.

I needed a monitor this size that inexpensive. I probably wouldn't have bought this brand, all things being equal but this one was on sale. I've been pleasantly surprised. It has a great picture and I was able to calibrate to my laptop easily. I would buy Acer again.

I needed this for a NAS box that I run as a backup. We have several at work and when I need a UPS, I look for APC. They have outlasted any others we've tried and they just work.

I was hesitant to buy an Apple watch, mainly because of the price. This was an open box item and I had some points so I bought it. It has been a very nice surprise. I have yet to take the time to explore all the features but it's very convenient, nice-looking and I'm happy I got it.

Mac mini now has fourth-generation Intel Core processors, increased graphics performance, and ultrafast 802.11ac wireless networking. It also features two Thunderbolt 2 ports, great built-in apps, and OS X Yosemite. And it's still the world's most power-efficient desktop.

I like the length of cord and the arrangement of the plugs. I'm able to plug in adapters and cords both.

Solid, fast computer.

Verified Purchase:Yes
After I bought a used Mac Pro and had it fail (video problem), I decided I needed to stop messing around and bite the bullet and get something that would just work. This computer does that and does it well. I would have given it 5 stars except for the price. I think Apple should offer a medium-cost option. Love the computer though.

MacBook Air features up to 8GB of memory, a fifth-generation Intel Core processor, Thunderbolt 2, great built-in apps, and all-day battery life.1 Its thin, light, and durable enough to take everywhere you go-and powerful enough to do everything once you get there, better.

We bought this to replace an older MacBook Pro at the office and it's a nice option. It's much lighter and faster with the built-in SSD. We've had no problems with any of these (we have four now) and love the portability.

I bought this drive because I need one fast and it was on sale. I read reviews afterward, but this hard drive has been great! I'm using it in my 2010 MacBook Pro and I've had no problems with it at all. I how have bought two more for other Macs at my office.

I'm a user of other IOS devices so this one was a natural. I didn't need a cell-enabled device so this one fit my needs perfectly. So far it's been trouble-free.

I bought this to use with my Mac laptop. I'm very happy with it. I had to change the modifier keys in System Preferences but after that no problems at all.

Does it have a fuse?

No fuse or reset button. If it blows, you're out $26 but that's better than blowing a computer.

Peace of mind from the world's most trusted UPS.The Back-UPS battery backup offers guaranteed power and surge protection for wireless networks, computers, gaming consoles and other electronics in your home or business.

I have 1 desktop computer and an iPad,lots of pics and lots of music. What back up system would you recommend ?

I would use a Western Digital My Cloud backup. Plug it into your router and your backup will run whenever you connect to your WiFi. You can even set it so you can connect remotely to retrieve your files.

Tower unit on its side?

I'm planning to use this 1500 tower style battery back up in my entertainment cabinet. Can I use the tower unit if is it laying on its side instead of standing up?
Should be no problem as long as you don't cover any fans or vent holes.
