Greatest DVD/Blu-Ray of the Greatest WWE Superstar
on January 30, 2012
Posted by: DefStatic

If you are or ever were a wrestling fan, get this. Get this now. And watch all three discs. You will not be disappointed. I have read countless reviews many places that were expecting this to be a dismal experience because of WWEs past biography DVDs. And all of them have claimed that this FAR exceeded expectations.
I was a Stone Cold Steve Austin fan before the band wagon. A lot of the stuff this talks about from his past I already had heard about, but it was even better to hear it from the Rattlesnakes mouth, and those around him at the time. You will not see too many wrestlers from here on out who will be able to have stories like that of Steve Austin.
The first disc contains the documentary and 4 matches. At first I was disappointed because I did not see anything that indicated what was on all the discs, and thought the rest would be filler and the four matches was all I was going to get. This is NOT the case. Disc 2 is ALL matches selected by Steve Austin. And these are some SPECTACULAR matches. It would have been better to have a few more from USWA, WCW and ECW, but I do understand. But what I do not understand is why there was not one One-on-One match from WCW with Steamboat. This was a huge mistake in my opinion, however, I would not even take one star off.
The third disc contains a ton of promos and skits from Steve Austin from WCW, ECW, and WWE. And they are CLASSIC. They are amazing. Whoever finally gave Steve a chance to develop his character should be President of WWE. So many people on the documentary claimed "Oh, you knew he had the stuff, you knew he had the stuff to make it big". The things you learn about the business, about SCSA, and the things he went through, it is what legends are made from. The third disc also contains his WWE Hall of Fame induction and celebration.
Get this video. Whether you were a fan of SCSA or not, whether you were a fan before the Attitude Era, during, or after, get this video. You will not be disappointed.
What's great about it: Interviews, biography, extras, matches, promos, everything...
What's not so great: Does not come with official World Title Belt...
I would recommend this to a friend!

Modern design meets wanted functionality...

Ok, I will admit, at the suggested price this is a bit excessive. I got this on sale at significant savings and was quite worth it.
Keyboard enthusiast love a good laptop keyboard. They are usually quite quieter and the short throw of the keys is much desired. Logitech had taken those two key features and created a desktop keyboard for us to enjoy.
The design of this keyboard is very modern, which is nice. Nice but it is all about function over form for most. And the function of this keyboard is amazing. The lighted keys, while may not be very necessary, is done very well and professionally. This is not your teen gamers keyboard, but it will out perform it. The keys themselves have you feeling like you are typing on air, but still strong enough to let you know you are typing.
If you like typing on a laptop, like a full size keyboard, like something that looks sleek and modern, go out and buy this. You wont regret it.
What's great about it: Design, professional, functionality...
What's not so great: Does not contain an ESP chip...

You will never find better speakers for the price.

Unless you go out and build a custom audio setup with a receiver and speakers, you will never find a better 2.1 (or dare I say even the 5.1) PC speaker setup for anywhere near the price. Don't be fooled by the in store setup, these are even 10 times better than the Bose 2.1 speakers.
Anyone who rated these any less than a 5 has issues and debates, and I would question their sanity.
These speakers can get LOUD. 200 WATTS people, 200 WATTS. Those Logitech speakers... those 5.1 doo-hickies... wont even come close. At 1/4 volume, these speakers get louder than my previous Altecs (and not the cheap Altecs) did at full volume.
Do not turn the bass knob past the white indicator. Infact you may want to turn it down. If having the bass knob at the white indicator is not enough for you, go to the doctors andhave your ears cleaned or tubes put in, because this sub delivers bass.
Remember, these are for audiophiles. These are for people who love music, who want to feel their movies, who just plain want and know how to get the best sound possible.
However, there are two things that will limit your ability to hear and understand how great these speakers are. The first being that you are just severely tone deaf and have no ear for good, proper sound reproduction.
The second is a bad sound card. If you are going to invest in these, also invest is a decent sound card. On Board PC sound has come a long ways, you may not think there is a difference, there is. Invest another $50-$99 and get a SoundBlaster sound card from Best Buy as well. Spend more if you want, just get one. They have even better ones online as well.
Trust me, you will not be disappointed. You may even decide to junk that wanna be pro audio home theater thing you bought and just use your computer for everything. I accept no responsibility if you become permanently planted in your desk chair.
What's great about it: Sound Quality, Build Quality
What's not so great: Doesn't do my laundry

how many licenses can i purchase when i buy Microsoft office 2007? and what is the cost?

You purchase one per copy. Some interpret the EUAL to mean that you can install it twice, but that is up for debate.

If you wish to make a volume license purchase, you would need to work with Microsoft directly.

Microsoft Outlook not working properly

my microsoft outlook keeps locking up after I open it and there is some screen flicker also. Have any suggestions. Bill
Hold down the CTRL key and open Outlook. It should tell you it is starting in safe mode.

If this works fine, you have an add-in that is causing a problem.

If the problem still exist, try updating to the newest SP (http://office.microsoft.com).

If all else fails, go to your Add/Remove programs on your Control Panel and run a repair (when you try to uninstall an Office app, it should ask if you want to repair).

why do my wireless internet connection keeps disconnecting?

What kind of wireless router do you have? How old is it? Where is it stored?

Typical life span of a well used wireless router is 2-3 years. Time and heat are their enemies.

But this could be an issue with the adapter on the computer connecting to the router too. Or possibly each device needs to be updated.

There are really a lot of potential issues that could be causing this. Depending on how old the equipment is, I would start by replacing the router first. If the router is no that old, then I would suggest getting a technician or friend to look at it. Almost everyone knows someone who knows someone who knows something about computers and networking.

Looking for a good Bluetooth enabled Laptop Computer.

Netbook or Laptop? Just check that it is a feature of the laptop you are looking at. Most laptops come with bluetooth by default now.

Worse comes to worse, you can get a TINY USB adapter that will give any computer bluetooth capability.

laptop computures

i am tried of laptops or note books and computurers. always not enough memoery not enough gb. i am looking for best laptop . brand that will make me happy. i am willing to give to get money worth. so my question what brand of laptop is the top of line? with bells and whistles
High End HP Laptops and Sony Viao's. The Sonys are usually packed with features, although over priced. The higher end HPs typically provide everything you need.

The thing is, no one brand is really a top of the line in most cases. Each of them usually provides a entry level model, a work performance model, and a high end model. All of which are customizable.

You really just need to go to your local best BUy adn say "I have this much to spend, I want the most for my money" and a technician there will be more than happy to assist.

Just make sure you get one with plenty of memory (upgradable too), plenty of HDD space, and a separate video card (not an built in Intel one).

I have a Toshiba lap top. How can I make it respond faster. When I come in the store what do I ask for?

PC Clean Up. This includes Virus/Spyware scans, registry cleaning, program cleaning. General Windows tune-up including Windows updates. Geek Squad can do this.

For it to truly respond faster, make sure you have at least 2GB of RAM. After that, it will not respond any faster than it is. Geek Squad can install this for you as well.

Beyond that, purchase a new laptop. Depending on what RAM type your laptop takes, you may just want to do that.
