The best Samsung watch
on February 26, 2017
Posted by: Aardvark111
from Onsted, MI
Verified Purchase:Yes
I own All the Samsung watches. Starting from the Gear, Gear2, gear Fit,
Gear S2 and now the Gear S3. I love the S3 the best. The S2 is about the same but great for smaller wrists. The S3 is so easy to read. Works great. And if you have the wifi off in the settings. The S3 only uses about 12 to 15 percent battery in a day. Wow. I love the S3

Great Laptop Beware of Open box Warranty
on February 19, 2017
Posted by: Aardvark111
from Onsted, MI
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Q324UA is a fantastic laptop for the money. 16gb DDR3 memory. 512 ssd SATA hard drive. nice screen resolution. Great keyboard. Battery life still varies all the time. Sometimes shows over 10 hours than all of a sudden shows 4 hours than back to 8 hours. Hopefully a software update will fix that. Now about ASUS. I have owned ASUS products a long time. They make great stuff. BUT!!! Their warranty and customer service is poor. Best Buy sells open Box items advertising with full Manufacturer warranty. However. ASUS will only give you a 90 day warranty not a full one year warranty. This is totally unacceptable for a $1200 LAPTOP. ASUS support website needs work also

The best easiest to use Tax software

Posted by: Aardvark111
from Onsted, MI
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have used Turbo Tax since it First came out in the 90's. It has been improved every year. I have never had a problem with the software. I did have an excellent experience with their tech support several years ago when I needed to download an older version of Turbo Tax to file an Amended return. I was extremely happy and surprised with the level of support they provided.

Can I transfer my office 2013 to the new computer or at least get an upgrade to same some money? I think I read the computer comes with an hdmi connection instead of an usb, is this correct. also I thought I read it does not come with dvd/cd drive??

You might have to call Microsoft customer service to activate office on a new computer.
It comes with an HDMI port plus 2 usb 3 and a usb c port (3 total)
No cd/dvd drive.

Have had for almost a month now. Is anyone else having problems with the keyboard not locking when flipped all the wall in tablet mode. Tent mode locks keyboard but as soon as I fold it 180 degrees (keyboard and screen back to back) the keyboard unlocks

There is a Asus software program installed that controls when the keyboard locks and unlocks. check your program settings

Its a nice looking laptop but the loud fans are making it very unpleasant to use What can be done to reduce the noise? The fan runs constantly even when not actively using it with only a few apps open.

It will run hot when plugged in and charging battery at same time especially in higher performance settings. So fan will do what it is supposed to and run faster and louder to cool off the laptop.
laptop runs a lot quieter when unplugged and just on battery. Especially with extended battery settings set.

Will this clone the registered programs without having to re-register them (i.e.: a registered Office 2010 from one drive to another without having to re-register? I have a couple one time install programs I'd like to keep w/o buying them again)?

Depends on how you copy the drives. Clone should do it OK.
If not than a call to Microsoft to tell them you are changing hard drives and then help you with activation again.

This router delivers powerful wireless performance for a range of home network applications, including streaming 3D high-definition video and multiplayer gaming. Four LAN and 1 WAN Gigabit Ethernet ports allow fast wired connections.
 

Will a wireless router work in a panel with a steel door in a drywall install?

I believe the Steel door might interfere with WiFi signal. It might still work but at a reduced range.

is this compatble with a swing box?

I have a swing box and want to hook it up in a basement family room but wireless router is upstairs. Want to be able to connect to a web tv box in Florida. Is this what I am looking for?
Sling Box needs to be plugged into router so it can broadcast your output from sling box to wherever you want. on your network on around the internet for you anywhere.
