My wife needed a replacement iPhone as the 4S was not working well after she dropped it. I had the 4S for 3 years with no incident. Best Buy / Verizon offer a great deal with the iPhone 7. She has her color choice, good amount of storage for her photo's. Big improvement with the control functions, feels smooth as silk. Camera quality is outstanding.

Good Storage Option

Not as much storage as the 128gb version but who could go wrong with a 64gb 3.0 flash drive for about 15 Bucks on sale. Best Buy has had some great deals for the Sandisk flash drives and SD Cards. I wouldn't use anything else.

Lots Of Storage

Flash drive is so small but yet so big with storage. Remember the day when most computers had a HDD less than half this size ? From Best Buy you couldn't beat the sale price. I'll have to put a leash on it I don't lose it.

I really like the COD series & have played it since the first release of the game. Best Buy Gamers Club gave me a very good deal on this double game version. I haven't had the opportunity to play the remastered COD4 as of yet, but I'm sure it has been graphically improved.

Fit Like A Glove

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been using a Incase cover on my 2011 15" MacBook Pro and it has worked great. When I purchased my 2015 / 2016 13" MacBook Pro I wanted to offer the same protection for my laptop investment. Best Buy didn't have one on the floor, item was found by sales person in the stock room at a clearance price. Made me very happy, I was able to get what I needed at a very good price.

Gopro's can be taken in the water but are not meant to be anchors. This bright orange life jacket will save you some search time if lost in the surf as it will stick out like a sore thumb. Not everything is perfect, but this certainly helps.

Hello, do you offer any laptops/notebook computers with Windows XP (any version)?thanks

Hate to inform you that Windows XP is dead - all versions have been dropped from Microsoft support. My employer removed Windows 7 Pro from all of our PC's because the Electronic Records system we had only was supported by Windows XP Pro. When the support was lost, both software systems had to be upgraded. Back to Win 7 Pro. We had quite the mess for a while. Doesn't mean you can't use XP, but I doubt it will function well on a newer pc with no support.

MacBook Pro features Intel's latest quad core processor, the core i5 processor, for a boost in processor and memory speeds. New next-generation graphics deliver performance levels that are up to 60 percent faster than before. And high-speed Thunderbolt I/O lets you transfer data at rates up to 10 GBps. The MacBook Pro is a great computer that just got even greater.
 

will this work (bluetooth) with my apple TV; my older MacAir would not, nor could it be connected via HDMI

I would also like to confirm that I could play my DVD's via the onboard burner? and then put them up on my big screen. Would that be hardwired HDMI or Bluetooth?
I also have an external DVD burner. Will these ports drive that? Again, I was told that even the new MacAir would not do that as they are not powered ports and most DVD's require that?
Macs & Apple TV will communicate via AirPlay, it is an App available through Apple web site. Any movie I have purchased through iTunes or burned to Mpeg4 format & placed on my iTunes is viewable through AirPlay. Completely wireless, but the Mac has to be turned on for it to work.

I am looking for a macbook pro 15" screen with 512mb video card

I dont see this offered on your site but have seen them with the 512mb memory elsewhere. Do you sell this model?
Save yourself some money and buy the MacBook Pro with the smaller SSD. You can store a ton of data on a external portable drive, a 1-2 TB is a fraction of the price compared to the upgrade price of an Apple SSD. I swapped out the factory HDD in my 15" MacBook Pro to a Samsung 512mb SSD. The transfer of the OS , all my data, removal of the old HDD and installation of the SSD took about 45 minutes. Apple has an excellent built in data migration tool. I don't know why, but Apple charges a premium price for the same upgrade products you and I can buy over the counter at Best Buy. I upgraded the factory memory modules with Samsung 8gb memory modules from Best Buy, I was surprised to find Samsung memory in the bay. Don't get me wrong, I love my Macs. I own a MacPro too.

Can I have upgrade a MacBook Air from 4gb to 8gb

Gail ;
Your best bet is to go to the Apple web site & look up the MacBook Air product support. I only own the MacBook Pro & have upgraded from the factory 4gb to 8gb only to find out that there has been success with installing 2 8gb modules for 16gb total. Apple did not openly publish this.
MacBook Pro's allow you to remove the bottom of the laptop case by removing 7 screws & gently removing. Allows access to the hard drive," in your case MacBook Air has Flash Drive" & the memory modules.
there is a lot of forums to google for assistance.

My MacBook Pro's Startup Disc is completely maxed out.

My MacBook Pro's startup disc is completely maxed out. I have been too busy to move files to external storage. Now I can't open it up to see to see the Finder. What should I do now?
Don;
You didn't provide any information regarding the size of your current HDD size. You will have to upgrade to a HDD with a larger capacity. Mac's have a really nice disk utility within OSX that has worked well for me. You will need a 2.5" external HDD enclosure & a 2.5" HDD larger than what you currently have. The process is really easy, there are some nice Mac forums to Google. Be sure to backup your Mac files using Time Machine to an external HDD. I admit that I am very bias to Western Digital HDD's, But I prefer the quality of the Samsung Pro series SSD when I use a solid state HDD
