Don't plug directly into the wall.

I've lost count the number of times I've bought these things. Seriously, don't plug directly into the wall. Get a surge protector for added security against, surges.

The value is real with this one

Upgrading your hard drive from an old mechanical drive to an SSD is one of the cheapest and most effective upgrades one can embark on. Seriously, what are you waiting for? Before you kick the old clunker to the curb try adding an SSD, perform a fresh install of the OS and be amazed at the performance difference.
Samsung, SanDisk and Intel make fantastic SSD's. The SanDisk drives an extremely hard bargain though.

Great game
on January 4, 2016
Posted by: Hal9000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a really great title. It proves that Nintendo can still be competitive in the console market, however, the biggest issue with this game is that it's on the Wii U console. Now, there isn't anything wrong with the Wii U console, it's just, not a lot of people own one. It's a real shame that this title will go unnoticed by the majority because of struggles the Wii U has been faced with over the past few years. I really hope Nintendo knocks their next console out of the park, for their sake, they need it.

Loves me the Google products!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Maybe I'm just unlucky but I've owned 3 Nexus 9 tablets and ALL have light bleed. 2 of them even had dead pixels. I have an M8 phone from HTC and it's a truly premium product. I feel that there's a certain lack of quality / quality control with the Nexus 9 line up. Hmmm.
That being said... the product IS nice. Sleek. I'd probably recommend the Nvidia Shield Tablet over this for most people. For me, I wanted the bigger screen.

It's Water Cooling on a budget
on January 16, 2015
Posted by: Hal9000
Verified Purchase:Yes
Cools well. Looks nice. Install is obviously more difficult than standard coolers - so make sure you have room. There are a lot of features that are not appropriately explained in the box / packaging - so maybe take the time to research them or go to Corsairs website. Examples being... the LED light can be changed, (it's RGB). Download Corsair Link software from Corsair's website to take advantage of fan controls and the RGB lighting.

Nexus 9
on December 24, 2014
Posted by: Hal9000
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's great. The aspect ratio takes a little getting used to coming from a Nexus 7 2013 but the display is gorgeous. My only real gripe is the battery life and charge time. It's about 25% less than the Nexus 7 2013 and charge time feels about 35% longer. These issues are most likely due to optimization problems within LollyPop and will be corrected in time as it matures. Speaking of which, LollyPop is beautiful.
Now, if only BestBuy would carry any accessories for this product - or even just put it on display. It's been a month and STILL no display unit. More people need to be aware of this amazing product.

Reusable!
on September 20, 2014
Posted by: Hal9000
Verified Purchase:Yes
The back of this mouse pad is composed of a sticky substance that can be washed and reused elsewhere. The sticky substance isn't or doesn't leave residue - so no worries there. Other than that it helps support your wrist and feels decent to use with all sorts of mice.

Cleaning!
on September 20, 2014
Posted by: Hal9000
Verified Purchase:Yes
So, the dust spray works exactly as intended. The monitor wipes were/feel a little dry. Now I've purchased these a few times and they're all the same, so it's definitely the product. The wipes still work though, just find myself having to use more than the other brand BestBuy sells, (the name of the other brand escapes me but BestBuy only sells two) to get the same effect.

are wipes ok for kindles and nooks

I see no reason why not. I use those wipes to clean my monitors, phone and tablets. I feel pretty confident in giving you the go ahead to use them on your products.
