A very good program for easy computer protection!

from Lapeer, Mi
I have had a chance to use it for about a month now and have found it an easy program to forget! Yes, Forget, Because when used it means I can go about my usual business and not have to worry about all the junk trying to infest my computer. It was easy to install and once set up it was just easy to forget it was even installed sometimes. It works in the back ground so smoothly I never needed to do anything else.

I would compare these batteries with any of the high priced batteries. Works just as good as Duracell, Ray-O-Vac, Energizer or any other brand. No leakage and long lasting in many different applications.

Great Light with many options~Alexza~Smart Control
on December 24, 2017
Posted by: DwayneL
from Lapeer, Mi
A great fixture with LOTS of available light. Controllable with a smart phone or Alexa. It is fully dimmable and is compatible with Smart things and Nest items. The only drawback is you need to have the Hue Bridge which is sold separately in order to use the smart features. However even when not using the smart features it is a Very Sharp Looking fixture with a flush mount that gives of LOTS of light.

Replace the keyboard of your Microsoft Surface Pro 7, 6, 5 or 4 with this silver Brydge keyboard. It conveniently lets you open the screen at your preferred viewing angle without a kickstand, and its backlit keys increase visibility in low light working environments. This Brydge keyboard is lightweight, so it doesn't add extra bulk to your device.

INCREDIBLY STRONG~GREAT TACTILE FEEL~BACKLIT KEYS~
on November 26, 2017
Posted by: DwayneL
from Lapeer, Mi
In my humble opinion you simply will not find a better keyboard! PERIOD!! It has an incredibly strong and sturdy Full Aluminum chassis that gives it a feel like it is indestructible. The keys are back lit for easy use in low light conditions. The hinge is built like a TANK! Extremely sturdy and holds it's position to a full 160 degrees. The battery life feels like it will last forever between charges, The claimed charge time is every 3 months which means you only have to charge it 4 times a YEAR! Pretty incredible if you ask me for a wireless product running Bluetooth. All in all I would give this keyboard a 9.9 out of 10. The only reason I didn't give it a perfect 10 is I would have rather had it match the same color as the tablet, But I guess I'm getting pretty picky with that.
I would HIGHLY recommend this keyboard. It's practically bullet proof and easily transfers your tablet in a laptop. It holds the tablet so securely you can pick it up by the tablet and it holds tight like it was permanently connected but comes apart easily when wanted.

OUTSTANDING AUDIO QUALITY~Great Bass~Clean & Clear
on November 25, 2017
Posted by: DwayneL
from Lapeer, Mi
These are among the BEST sounding that I have ever tested! Incredible Bass for such a small unit and wireless to boot. I cannot find anything to complain about in these. The sound was very well rounded and crystal clear. I would recommend these for ANYONE looking for top quality sound reproduction. A+++ in my book.

Make your home an internet haven with this versatile Linksys Velop wireless Wi-Fi system. Three identical tri-band dual-stream AC2200 routers, each equipped with a quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 processor, deliver lightning-fast internet. Equipped with Bluetooth 4.0/LE, this Linksys Velop wireless Wi-Fi system is simple to set up and pairs easily with computers, tablets and smart devices.
 

Does the velop support ethernet backhaul? The Linksys website does nto say for sure but makes it look like it does.

You can make up to 3 connections a "Priority" connection and they get a higher speed. Using my computer and doing a speed test it went from 20-25 Mbps to 50-60 Mbps when it was a priority connection. You can connect a switch to one of the ports on the node and connect additional items to that but I really have not had a chance to do any additional speed tests when other units on the switch are being used.

I don't think the following statement is correct "Each access point provides a maximum data transfer speed of up to 6600 Mbps" I think collectively all the routers/access points have that much throughput but not an individual one.

I think it would depend on if you made the connection a "Priority" connection. You are allowed 3 "Priority" connections that get the highest speed and we noticed a big difference in my computer when doing a speed test it was only about 20 to 25 Mbps without priority and about 50 to 60 Mbps when it was a priority. So take into consideration.

HP L1710 monitor

The screen goes black when I go on the internet but is okay if I don't (like playing games that are on the computer). If I turn it off and then back on it stays on for awhile then goes black again. If I do this repeatedly it stays on longer and longer until it finally quits going black. The next time I use the computer to go on the internet I have to go through the same procedure. Any ideas on what the problem is? It is not that old a monitor.
It sounds like it could be one of two things. Either there is a capacitor that is going bad and once it warms up it works ok. Or more likely is there is a bad solder joint on the board somewhere, And Again, Once it warms up it expands and then the connection works ok. If you are comfortable opening things up and checking it out you could, CAREFULLY, open it up and then wait for it to work correctly and then use some NON-FLAMABLE cold shot or circuit freezer and spray it on any suspected components until it acts up, Then you found it.
Good Luck!!!

resolution

is 1366 x 768 a higher resolution than 1024 x 768?
Yes and No. In strict terms it is higher however the real difference is the shape of the picture. It might make the screen look different then you are used to. You can always try a different setting and if you don't like it windows will usually revert to the old setting after 15 seconds. So you can try many different settings until you get the one you like best. I hop this helps you out.

Daylight Viewing Monitor

Do you carry any 15/16" computer monitors designed for use in full sunlight? I prefer not to have widescreen.
This monitor works great in full day light. I have it near a window with no trouble at all.

Samsung UN65F7100AFXZA LED HDTV: Get a theater-like 1080p picture with this Samsung HDTV's expansive LED screen. The built-in Wi-Fi and Samsung Smart Hub make it easy to wirelessly stream movies, TV shows and music.
 

Does this model push 5.1 surround sound from the HDMI cable through the optical cable?

Is this model campatable with the Sonis sound bar and 5.1 surround set up?
Yes, It should without any problems. Buy if you have the means to get even a minimal home theater system it's worth every cent. The sound bars do a fine job in very small rooms but tend to get lost in a larger room.
