Very good product and value

MS Office 365 for one computer plus one device for one year is a good value. I paid $69 for one year that gives you all updates automatically plus 20 GB of OneDrive storage for a year. Having the full Office Suite and 20 GB of OneDrive storage for $69 is a great value to me. I'm using OneDrive between my desktop Windows 8 computer, my Asus T100 "tablet" and my WP8 Nokia Lumia 920 phone. The phone, of course, has MS Office on it to begin with (phone version) so I put Office on my desktop and T100 tablet. It all works great, and I feel I'm getting my $69 worth for a year. Of course you can go $99 for the same thing each year only for up to 5 devices.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought the USB 3 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter to have in case I needed a hard internet connection...Wi-Fi is not always available. It's compact so taking it with you is simple and requires no space that you would notice. I've used it once and it worked very well. I keep it in my travel case for my Asus T100.

You can't find a more useful device for the money

I have the 64 GB T100 and it is so useful for personal, business or student use. It's very portable and having the option of using it just as a tablet or connecting it to the "dock" so that it acts just like a laptop is great. It handles regular office chores with aplomb as well as reading, video viewing etc. In terms of normal use I've not had it bog down or "misfire" in any way. I've heard of guys running VM's on it and doing other pretty intensive stuff. I can't verify that sort of use, but the way mine runs I'd be inclined to believe it. If you want a relatively inexpensive device that can handle anything the majority of people would use it for, the T100 is definitely worth looking at!

What's great about it: FAST processor, USB 3, very portable, full Windows 8.1, great battery life!
What's not so great: Sound is OK but I would like more volume available. An LTE option would be nice.

The reliable Brother HL-L3270CDW compact digital color printer is a great choice for the busy home or small office looking for laser printer performance. Quick print speeds of up to 25 pages per minute² plus manual feed slot accommodate varied printing needs and can handle a variety of paper types and sizes, including card stock, envelopes and more. Connect with versatile options, including built-in wireless, Ethernet or USB interfaces, and print wirelessly from mobile devices³. The 250-sheet capacity adjustable paper tray helps improve efficiency with fewer refills and handles letter- or legal-size paper. Automatic two-sided printing helps save on paper costs. Save time by creating custom shortcuts on the 2.7" color touch screen, which also enables you to print directly from popular cloud apps, including Dropbox, Google Drive, Evernote, OneNote and more⁴. Brother Genuine high-yield replacement toner cartridges help lower printing costs. Comes with a 1-year limited warranty and free online, call or live chat support for the life of your product.
 

Will this printer print on heavier glossy label stock?

Yes, it will handle various types of paper/labels etc, but there will be some types that may give you trouble. Like all printers I've ever used, it will auto-feed sheets unless they're simply too stiff/thick/slick to do so. It's impossible to say ahead of time without some trial and error. If you use the manual feed slot, it will print on just about anything because it's being fed in a straight line, but that's one sheet manually fed at a time. When using the paper tray each sheet has to be mechanically picked up and then run through different rollers to move the paper where it needs to go for printing. Some sheets will feed OK even though they're thicker/stiffer than bond paper, but some types will simply be too much to do so. I would recommend that you take some samples of what you want to print on to a store with a demo printer set up and see if it will feed your material from the paper tray. Otherwise, you can be certain it will print through the manual feed slot one sheet at a time, or that the paper try will work with some types of sheets and not others depending.

Clean your home with voice command or app-based programs by using this Samsung robot vacuum. Its digital camera and nine sensors let it find its way around, avoiding obstacles and mapping the most efficient path through your home. Wi-Fi connects this powerful Samsung robot vacuum to your smart home systems.
 

Can this robot machine vacuum carpet for one hour?

That's one of those "it depends" type of questions. It depends on the suction setting (low, medium, turbo), and it depends upon the type of carpet. Thicker, higher nap carpeting takes more energy than its opposite. We run ours in our living room (large room) and it has a higher density thread count and longer nap. It will run on turbo suction setting about 45 minutes before needing to recharge. It could easily run one hour (even longer) if the carpet had a lower nap or you set the suction on medium or low, or a combination of those factors. I can say that ours does a good job of cleaning!

I read in the specs "Built-in media reader for simple photo transfer. Supports select memory card formats." Does anyone know what formats are supported or not supported?

It supports the typical 3 sizes of memory cards, if you use an adapter for the micro size

I know that you can add additional monitors, but can you attach another All in One computer as a second monitor? I have a VIAO with 2.4mhz Core i7 2nd generation and it's too slow and want to use it as a 2nd monitor.

Perhaps, but you would have to have a HDMI-in port on your VIAO
