Good protection

The Apple smart case has always been a favorite. It's excellent protection without adding much weight. Having a cover that puts to sleep and wakes the device is a plus.

These mice were on sale, so I picked one up for a touchpad-defective laptop. It's small enough to transport with the laptop and has a nice curved shape for an easy grip.

When I purchased a Mac Mini, the Apple Mini to VGA was not readily available. A sales person suggested the j5 create. Worked perfectly.

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.

There's not much new to say about a Western Digital external hard drive. They have always been dependable and reasonably priced. WDs are all I purchase for my clients and myself.

The only reason for the 4 stars is the lack of responsiveness of the touchpad. The problem may have been exclusive to this particular laptop. Other than the touchpad, the specs are very good and it has a touch screen. What more could you want?

A better smart case
on July 21, 2015
Posted by: Hubbard54
from Wellington FL
Verified Purchase:Yes
For the most part, this is a great iPad case. My only complaint (hence 4 stars instead of 5) is that it tends to slip out of the groove when using it as a stand. I still find it far superior to the Apple smart case...the stand works in landscape or portrait position and allows multiple angles for viewing.

I am quite happy with this Dell all-in-one. It comes with more than enough hard drive space, an upgraded AMD A8 processor and the bonus of a touch screen. Too soon to report on long-time performance but would buy again with these specs.

All features work as expected - timer, toast, broil, etc. My only complaint is the rack rails. Instead of running fully front to back, it has a front AND a back protrusion. This requires lifting the whole tray up and out instead of sliding it out. A couple times of your food falling to the bottom of the unit is adequate training.

Deliver your favorite playlist anywhere in your home with the Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device. Control most electric devices through voice activation, or schedule a ride with Uber and order a pizza. The Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device turns any home into a smart home with the Alexa app on a smartphone or tablet.
 

I purchased The Echo Dot for a gift. The party that received it can not get it to play any music. It does other functions for her, but no music. Do you have a solution?

The options in the app (on their phone or tablet) should allow them to sync other apps, like I Heart Radio or Pandora. That's what I use to play music through my Dot.

How complicated is the wireless set up?

I recently bought a Canon printer and the setup was horrible. There was no screen and it was never able to connect to my wifi and looked up numerous tutorials online but none could help my flashing light problem. SO will I have that much trouble with this setup as well?
Like most current HP printers, the wireless is easy to set up. The software will either prompt you to let HP do all the work or you can use the printer's touch screen to use the Wireless Wizard.

What is the advantage of a PC over a Mac?

I am interested in upgrading my desktop computer. However, I am not sure if I want a PC or a Mac. Also, I am a home user who has Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007. Will that suite of applications work on a new Dell Computer?
Microsoft Office 2007 will work just find with all operating systems. I believe the 2007 Home and Student edition had a 3 user maximum. And...you won't be able to use that version on a Mac.

The difference between Mac and PC is totally personal.

I do find the Mac to have faster startup and connect times, as well as being very well built. There are things it will not let you do, period, but for the average user doing the average things, it's a good choice.

The PC is more vulnerable but more forgiving. If you are adventurous, stick with the PC. Windows may warn you when entering iffy territory but it will not prevent you from going there.

Can you spli your viewing screen.

I'm wondering if you can run more than one function simultaneously; have email open on one side, and Internet as other half for example?
That's more of an operating system function. But to answer your question...yes. Just size down the screen (not maximized or minimized) and click and drag the title bar (top of the page) to the left or right until it "snaps" into place. Do the same with the other program by heading in the other direction. Now you have two programs running side by side.

Hope that helps.

Utilizing Dolby Digital, DTS TruVolume and DTS TruSurround technologies and 3" full-range drivers, this VIZIO S3821W-C0 soundbar adds a rich soundscape to your home theater setup. A 6" wireless subwoofer produces powerful low-end audio.
 

What size TV is this best suited for?

I have a 42 inch Vizio TV, would this be the right size sound bar for that?
It should be great on a 42". Mine is hooked up to a 50" and I couldn't be more pleased.

How can I print 4x6 pictures?

I have pictures on email that I want to print and I cannot get the paper slot correct.
Proper photo printing has as much to do with the program you use to print those pictures as it does with the printer. For the printer, be sure to remove your standard paper and gently move the grey size adjusters toward the center until it just snugs up to the photo paper. Feed it in portrait (like your regular paper), not landscape.
