BB can't improve the movie, but I couldn't pass up the sale price for the Blu-Ray Steel Book edition. Will add to the later JB movie collection

Civilization as we know it is in peril. Oryx, also known as The Taken King, has entered our solar system with the sole purpose of revenge. After the Guardians destroyed his son, Crota, his goal is to consume our worlds with the help of his corrupted army. It's up to you to defeat the king's evil hordes, overtake the Hive Dreadnaught ship and finally go head-to-head with The Taken King himself. The latest chapter in the Destiny series expands the universe you know and love with new locations, powerful new abilities and an all-new storyline that's as riveting as the last.Destiny: The Taken King brings you back to the Destiny universe, as you fight to destroy Oryx, an evil king with a hard grudge who's determined to take down the entire solar system. It's your job to find a way onto his Dreadnaught ship, obliterate his dark army and kill the king himself. You'll have access to three new Guardian subclasses, a wealth of weapons, armor and other gear and powerful new abilities. Select the Warlock subclass to harness the power of an electrical storm, the Hunter subclass to carve bows from gravitational void energy or the Titan subclass to summon a flaming hammer. Enjoy an expansion of the Destiny universe with a Cabal base on Phobos and Oryx's loot-filled fortress, the Dreadnaught. This Legendary Edition also contains Destiny, Expansion I: The Dark Below and Expansion II: House of Wolves, so you can experience the entire series.

DLC Ready

I've been playing this game on Xbox 360, but the game upgrade this fall by Bungie is only going to be available for the nexgen consoles. I received a great price match from Best Buy, so now I'm ready for the game add-on upgrade. Very noticeable graphic upgrades in the Xbox one release and your gamer tag stats carry over instead of starting from scratch.

I've bought SanDisk memory cards for many years. This was one of the few cards highly recommended by GoPro for the newer Hero models. The price was unbeatable , Best Buy price matched a one day special that I has missed by a few hours. I highly recommend SanDisk.

Micro SD Card That Works.

I trust Sandisk with all my photo shots, I may as well trust them with my GoPro video shots. Picked this card up for my GoPro 3+ as it doesn't need a 4K card. I've since picked up the better sd cards for my GoPro 4 Silver.

Best Buy offered a great deal on this bundle for the price of the Wi-Fi remote alone. Included the Backpack battery pack, extra case back covers, charge cords. Remote was a little tricky to pair with my GoPro 4 Silver, but I figured it out. Gives you just basic functions if you choose not to use the iPhone app.

Been listening to the Eagles since the first album release. Boy those high school days don't seem that long ago. Great group of recordings on this album just before the next Greatest Hits 2 was released. I never got this one on LP, glad Best Buy had it in stock at a great price.

I've had the Hotel California LP for years, Why not have the convenience of the album on CD ? There are pro and cons to both platforms. Plus Best Buy had a great deal.

No question about it, these black ink cartridges last me longer than the competition. I've had HP printers eat through cartridges like crazy. Cost twice as much and have half the life.

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.

I will never buy another Windows based PC or Laptop after becoming addicted to Apple products. I own a Mac Pro Tower, MacBook Pro 15", iPad 2, iPhone 4S ( contract is up in a month for the next upgrade ) , iPod Touch-64gb, iPod-120gb. I will never turn back. I dread going to work having to deal with those other PC's

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
