Excellent for photo and slide editting
on November 11, 2024
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This monitor is excellent for editing photos and slides.
It has incredibly accurate color rendition right out
of the box. It has an aspect ratio of 16:10, which is
better for processing my photos and slides than the
usual 16:9 aspect ratio. The 24 inch screen is perfect
for my work. Its 1920X1200 resolution is well matched
to my work needs. To top it all off it provides a built in
4 port usb hub, as well as a stand that has a remarkable
degree of positioning capability.
I strongly recommend this monitor to those editting
photos and slides.

Good backup drive - but needs a fan
on November 11, 2024
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
I do regular image backups of my workstation,
that has four NVMe m.2 drives . For this I need
large capacity, external, hard drives. This 20TB drive
is well suited for the task. Its only shortcoming is
that it heats up to more than 50deg C during the
long backup time, if left to its own devices. I have
fixed this issue by positioning a pair of 80mm fans
beneath it, to force cool air into its housing (see photo).
The drive also performs well for a hard drive, as can
be seen in the results of a Crystal Disk Mark speed
test. The temperature at the start of the test was
24 deg C. At the end of the test it was 33 deg C, and
dropped to 25 deg C just 3 minutes after the end
of the test. The fans are very effective.
I use two separate external hard drives for my backups,
alternating between each one. This is good enough for
my needs.
I recommend this drive to anyone needing a simple,
cost effective way to do large backups.

Like a Comfy Couch! The Vernazza Soft Fabric design is based on Arozzi~s top rated Vernazza chair, but has been covered with a soft yet durable fabric used on quality furniture! The breathable material is exceptionally pleasing to sit in, while at the same time keeping you cool for long term use!

A good computer chair
on November 11, 2024
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
This chair fills my needs as a tall (6 ft 1 in) and somewhat
heavy (260 lb) individual. It is also comfortable and
classy looking.
The chair itself is heavy (57 lb) and arrives in a fairly
massive box (62 lb). The box arrived showing some
wear (photos), which is to be expected for one of
its weight and size. However, the contents were
very well packed and in excellent condition.
I recommend that assembly be done on a large, clear
area of floor - and that an old sheet be spread over that
surface to protect the chair during assembly. I carefully
unpacked the pieces, and checked against the list of
pieces. Everything was there, including the only tool
needed for assembly and a pair of very nice white
gloves to protect the very nice finish of the chair.
I very carefully read the instructions included, but
found the video showing assembly to be more helpful.
Working by myself and proceeding very carefully, it
took me about 90 minutes to do the unpacking, repeated
viewing of the installation video, and assembly. The
finished chair looks very nice.
To date my main activity making use of the chair is
digitizing and editting old family slides. I keep the
back of the chair upright, and find it quite comfortable for
my long editting sessions.
My one criticism of the chair is that the arm rests do not
appear to be very sturdy - but this does not impact me
as I rarely use them while doing my work on the computer.
I would not hesitate to recommend this chair.

You may have to update the firmware
on October 13, 2024
Posted by: prof2000
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got an incredible price for this as a Deal of the Day.
The first sign of a problem was when I hooked it up
to my computer with the provided usb cable. It appeared
to be charging, but the gamepad was not seen by my
computer. I turned on bluetooth and it was seen. I made
repeated attempts to play Forza Horizon 4 - but it would
disconnect in just a few seconds.
After digging through many user reviews I found several
users with the same problem, that was solved by
updating the firmware of the gamepad. I found the
website with the updates, and making the update was
actually pretty easy.
With that done I was able to play Forza Horizon 4 using
bluetooth without disconnecting.
I then tried playing using a usb cable, but one that
I had on hand and knew was good. This time the
gamepad immediately connected with my computer,
which properly identified the gamepad.
I have deducted one star for the bluetooth connection
problem. It would have been helpful if a card had been
provided mentioning a possible need to update the
firmware, and pointing to instructions on how to do it.
I deducted another star for what appears to be a defective usb cable. Luckily I had one of my own on
hand.
I recommend this gamepad if you can get a considerable
discount on it.

If your usb port is a usb 2.0 port, the maximum throughput speed will be ~200Mbs.

I’ve never owned a Samsung tablet but I’m glad I purchased this one. I bought it as a replacement for a 10 year old HD Nook and this is a fabulous replacement. Light weight, slim, yet very solid. I recommend you buy a screen protector and case. Has plenty of storage for apps and has great video and sound.

By Mikew
It works of you aren't trying to cast any type of video. Otherwise, all you get it a glitchy, buffering cast of what you're trying to watch.
Works for me
March 31, 2022
I am connecting to it with a Samsung Tab S6 Lite, using the Smart View utility in the tablet. I am watching movies from VUDU, and YouTube videos with no problem. I did have to enable HDCP in the adapter to watch the copyrighted material from VUDU - and this is done using the Microsoft Display Adapter app, that only runs on Windows.

Nice little laptop
By VickieE
It's been many years since i've purchased a computer. I really like the size and weight of this one. The only thing I don't like is that I can't install Chrome. It seems they only want me to use Bing. The other thing is that there is no Excel without paying extra and I don't want to pay for just one spreadsheet. I have Office on a cd but there is no cd slot. Other than that, I really like it so far, much faster than my old computer and has touch screen. It was one of the least expensive ones that I could find. It's worth the price I paid. I'll just have to find someone who knows what they are doing to help me around the issues of getting Chrome and using the one spreadsheet I need. Overall good purchase.

I live in a small town. I pick up local fm stations, and fm stations within 30 miles with outstanding clarity. The tuner locks on, and there is zero drift (none observed over a 5 hour period, and it remains tuned precisely from day to day). I can't speak to am stations.

I thought this came with batteries I just took off the cover and there aren’t any batteries. Did you guys get batteries with yours?

It has a built in rechargeable battery. Use the supplied ac power cord to charge it. Make certain the switch on the back is "on" when you do this.

Does this model have bluetooth?

It has bluetooth for input sources - so you can stream music from your phone to it. However, it does not have bluetooth output - so you can not use bluetooth headphones or ear plugs with it directly.

i think this is cool but all my cassette tapes are gone . Where can i find cassette tapes by artist

Often your local Goodwill store, and other charity shops, can be a place to find used cassette tapes - generally at very attractive prices.

Does this play cds?

The short answer is no - this boombox does not have a built in cd player. However, as noted in the previous answer you can plug a cd player into the AUX Input and play cds.

Can you listen to tapes in the stereo?

I have played stereo cassette tapes in this boombox, and can verify that you get true stereo sound out of the boombox from them. The same is true when tuned in to fm stereo stations, and when playing stereo mp3 files from a usb stick. An added note - the mp3 files obtained from copying stereo cassette tapes using this boombox are also true stereo.

Yes it does. And it does a very good job. Also, pairing with my smart phone is easy and fast .

I must transfer short clips from CDs to cassette tape. Can I connect jacks from my amp directly to the tape recorder, and fade-in fade-out?

With the appropriate cable or cable adapter you can plug the output from your amp directly to the AUX Input on the side of the boombox. You can then record to the cassette recorder. There are no controls on the boombox to provide fade-in fade-out, however.

Will wireless headphones work with this boombox?

The short answer is no. This boombox does not have the bluetooth out feature. It does, however, have an excellent headphone out to use with wired headphones or ear phones. I have used it with good quality headphones (Sennheiser 570) and the sound is excellent.

How many hours of airplay does the battery charge last? Does it come with AC/DC adaptor for standard wall plugs? Thank you

The boombox comes with an ac cord to plug it into a wall socket. You use it to charge the built-in internal rechargeable battery. The hours of airplay you get on a full charge will depend on how it is being used: the loudness setting for the speakers, whether you are using bluetooth, whether you are playing or recording with the cassette player/recorder. With the speakers set to moderate volume for a small room and playing the radio I have run the radio for 10 hours with no problem.
