This was for my stepson, who was on a blu-ray buying spree at the time. He's an anime buff and he says it was a good buy. Four stars based on his recommendation.

My stepson purchased this and he rather enjoyed it. From what I've heard of it (haven't seen it myself), it's rather...out there. But he loved it a lot.

I generally don't appreciate reboots much (Star Trek being the worst offender) but this has a good mix of wit, comedy and F/X. A little slow and repetitive at times. Otherwise, a good start. The cameos of nearly all the original surviving cast lent an air of support as well. Good flick.

Good stuff, not quite what I was expecting
on February 12, 2017
Posted by: Chris
Verified Purchase:Yes
Was hooked on the band with the single, "S.O.B."; while the music is good and seems a curious yet intelligent mix of blues and gritty rock, a lot of it ends up sounding similar...not all of it mind you, but some tracks sound repetitive. I do enjoy the album and glad I bought it, but I do wish a little more variety in the sound was done. That said, it's a pretty solid set and worth the money.

Lots of storage

Verified Purchase:Yes
Saw the need recently to upgrade my external hard drive space availability to 4TB. This one fit the bill.
One curious note, Win7 Ultimate is reporting that the driver for this device needs to be installed, but when I have Windows search for such a driver, it tells me no driver is needed. That's what I had thought in the first place but...well, don't be worried on that score. Works just fine without some sort of additional driver.

Laptop of the Gods
on January 13, 2017
Posted by: Chris
Verified Purchase:Yes
To me, this thing is a dream. I've had the chance very recently to put it through some paces and I couldn't be happier.
I generally game at home with a PC but whenever I travel (somewhat rarely) the need for strength in such a laptop became noted. I used this consistently for a week straight now, and here are some notes:
I largely play World of Warships for my most "advanced" game. Even over the most baseline/minimal WiFi that hotel chains allow you without paying for more bandwidth per night, this thing rocks it. I have settings largely maxed with little to no lag; I attribute this to the included Killer app. I had one round with lag...around eight others with no lag at all.
The 4k display is beautiful. Rich colors, very detailed on a normal basis, even when only looking at 1080 content.
The camera is also highly detailed. Not sure of the resolution but when doing a Skype session, even my wife commented on how detailed our side of the picture was.
Win10 handles older games well now. I've downloaded some content from GOG.com and with tweaking that has been noted by the community the programs work well.
Be sure to note items of interest on other reviews for tips to make it load up faster...they work well. Also if you're thinking of SSD expansion beyond the 1TB HDD (World of Warships loads much better with one), be sure to select an M.1 drive (NOT SATA) since this is the only type of SSD that the expansion interface will accept...kind of learned this the hard way myself but I now have a 1TB M.1 SSD in there and I'm a happy camper.

I've used Webroot for quite a few years now (easily over 10) and not once have I had an issue from a virus or malware. I got this second set for an Alienware laptop I bought, so this came with the Geek Squad coverage for a 5 year term. This makes me quite happy. I've used AVG, McAfee and Norton and none come close to Webroot, IMO. Highly recommemded.

Enjoy HD programming with the Roku Streaming Stick. Plug it into any flat-screen television that has a built-in USB port to view streaming media. This device provides more than 4500 channels on demand and features more than 450,000 movies and TV episodes. Control the Roku Streaming Stick with the included remote or with your smartphone via the Roku Mobile App.
Which Roku device works best for sling tv. I have Roku express stick sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. My internet is 200G. What do I need to do to better my picture
For my situation, I'd recommend the 2016 Roku Streaming Stick, though I should caveat that this is my only/first streaming device so far. I stream Sling TV through it and it's quite amazing.
I have 100Mbps internet and this Roku is for WiFi use only as it has no ethernet port in it. I've speed tested my router (Netgear Nighthawk AC 1700) a few times and it routinely pushes WiFi signals around 78Mbps, and I bought that router specifically to ensure the signals are pushed at higher speeds and over the 5Ghz frequency to not be interfered with by other routers that neighbors have.
Now be advised, your router quality is everything when pushing signal like Sling. If you have an older router, your signal might be jammed up because of the signal frequency (2.4 Ghz) that every older router now uses, or not being kept up with by the router itself...you may have 200Mbps internet but if the router is old, the speed quality might not be up to par. In this case, I'd seriously consider upgrading your router...if you use WiFi heavily, you won't regret it.
Hope this helps!

HP ENVY 5540 All-In-One Printer: Complete a variety of office jobs with this all-in-one printer, which lets you print, copy and scan. With built-in Wi-Fi, you can easily connect to Apple® AirPrint and HP ePrint and print directly from your compatible smartphone or tablet.
What kind of USB cable do I buy to work with the HP Envy 5540 Wireless All-In-One Printer? Will an Insignia™ - 10' USB 2.0 A-Male-to-B-Male Cable - Black work with it? Thank you.
I just looked at the back of mine. If you want to hard-wire it and not use the wireless feature, your choice of cable looks like it will work for you.
