Wasn't sure if I would like this but there are many times our family want a picture together and we have no picture taker. We like how this gives us the ability to keep all of us in the picture. A+

Great Product. It works well for our home in the kitchen. Was easy to hook-up. You will need to get a wall plate for this item. Although there are different color fixtures, you will still need to purchase the plate that goes around the switch.

All you have to do on newer Operating Systems is plug it into your computer then attach it to an HDMI device and it will project what is on your computer. I have had little to no problems with these. A Great Product!

Great Product! Works great in the laptop

I have used SanDisk and prefer to use SanDisk for years. They seem to always work well with little problems if any. I purchase IT for my company, friends, family, and even my church. I buy SanDisk first. I'm not saying others don't work and are not dependable. BUT, what I am saying is SanDisk works Great and I cannot recall one failing. AND, just in case you are wondering, I have no ownership or partaking in SanDisk...I just like their product.

Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Onenote

This is a great product and widely used which helps when transferring files with others. A great feature with the newer Office packages is the applications work with each other very well. If you have excel calculations you want to show to others in a presentation, you can correlate the two apps where the results can be shown in a way you would like them to in powerpoint. When you change the results in the excel spreadsheet -- the results are transmitted to the powerpoint presentation.

Works great for my kids in the car for long trips

Verified Purchase:Yes
This product is one DVD player and two monitors to put on the back of your front seats so your children or whoever can watch video. You can connect other things to the screens like gaming stations but we use it mainly to entertain our kids for long trips. The holders that are provided do not fit well on many seats. But all in all it is very nice. You can also use these in a home environment. Sound is good, Video is good and all you have to do is help your kids decide on that one thing for them to watch. We all know that is an adventure. Another great addition are the included headphones. They work great when you want to listen to music while they are watching video.

Exceptional Touch Laptop!
on March 16, 2016
Posted by: Spikel

Verified Purchase:Yes
In my eye, I feel ASUS is one of the top 3 Laptop providers. This laptop was easy to setup and has a lot to offer. With the Touch Screen, 12GB of RAM and a TB of hard drive space; you don't need much more. It is a 2 in 1 laptop. That means to me you can take the monitor to the back of the laptop and it doubles as a tablet or to watch video. When doing this the keyboard is deactivated until you pull the screen from the base. I really like this laptop for the normal to high end user. I recommended this laptop to a friend and he loved it too!

This Product Loaded and Works Great!

I purchased this software package for a server I needed to load a server OS onto. So far it works great. I have ordered this OS for 2 other Servers I also have loaded and are currently using. The one thing I probably care for the least about this OS is the GUI. The GUI is so much like that of Windows 8. Wish it were more like one of the other Desktop OS like Windows 10 or 7 or XP.

This works well for a Monitor/Computer pairing when one has a DVI Connection and the other has an HDMI connection. Worked Great. We just plugged it in and everything connected up. Just had to go in and tell the computer how I wanted to push the image to the screen (Mirror, extended, etc.).

Interact with Alexa anywhere in your home with the Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device. The compact size is a perfect fit in any room, and the built-in speaker lets you set an alarm or stream music. The Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device plugs into your home stereo speakers or connects wirelessly through Bluetooth.
 

How can I connect my Apple music for echo dot? Or does only Pandora, Amazon music.. etc the ones listed work?

I play my music off my phone through the dot. There are many music apps that work with the Amazon Dot. Again look to see which ones.

Navigate simply using this Garmin n~vi 010-01399-02 6" GPS, which includes lifetime map and traffic updates and features Lane Assist with Junction View, so you can make it through complex interchanges with ease.
 

I see its lifetime updates.. Are they free updates?

Yes they are free updates. You get free lifetime map and traffic updates. Very Nice. You download the Garmin app to your computer. Connect your GPS and it brings up the updates you need to run. I always do a backup first within the program. It will save a backup to your computer. This program works like a charm. I update about 15 gps units with this one program.

SodaStream Fountain Style Diet Cola Sodamix: Create that classic soda pop taste in your own kitchen with this diet cola mix, which yields up to 29 servings, so you can enjoy a refreshing beverage with friends. The mix offers a zero-calorie, sugar-free treat.
 

How is this different from the old bottle?

Is this bottle 1/3 less the size of the old bottle? My old bottle has 48 @.145 per drink serving and this one states 29 @.2065 per serving. Has anything else changed?
I believe they are about the same. They do seem to be a little stronger.

You don't have to convert it, just purchase the Insignia™ - 6' DVI-D-to-HDMI Cable - Black or a similar cable and everything should work. Just plug the ends in and your monitor should work with your computer. I have done this myself on several occasions for the company I work with. Make sure your monitor has the DVI. If not then purchase the VGA to HDMI cable.

Either get a VGA to HDMI Cable (VGA is a Blue Cable Ends Generally) OR a DVI to HDMI Cable (DVI is generally White Ends). Depending on your monitor, that is what you will need. Generally all you have to do is plug in the ends and everything will work.

will this work on a dell 10 inch tablet or a polaroid l10 tablet? they have a micro slot.
Yes, these will work with a tablet or laptop or camera that has a MicroSD slot. I have had no troubles using them with any device that has a MicroSD Slot or any device that has an SD Slot by using the adapter. You just put the MicroSD card in the adapter and put the adapter in the device.
