Landmark movie now on Blu-Ray
on January 13, 2020
Posted by: Randall
Verified Purchase:Yes
2001: A Space Odyssey is one of the most important movies ever made, not just in science fiction, but in cinematic history, period. When it came out in 1968, audiences had never seen anything like it. In many ways, with its classical score (particularly the Blue Danube Waltz during the space station docking sequence) and incredible special effects, it paved the way for movies like Star Wars, which came less than a decade later. It's also one of my favorite movies, and this 50th anniversary re-release and remaster blew me away, with the clarity of the visuals and music. the package comes with a bonus booklet that features reproductions of the concept art done for Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece. I'm glad I came across this at my local Best Buy, shopping with my birthday coupon. It made a nice present to myself. Highly recommended for any sci-fi buff or movie fan.

Laptop is great, but WIndows 10 is a pain
on August 10, 2019
Posted by: Randall
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this laptop after my old one died. The computer itself is great--it is very lightweight, has a touchscreen, and can switch to tablet mode. The only design flaw is that I have to be careful not to accidentally press the power button on the side of the chassis. Doing so when the PC is on puts it to sleep, but is not hard to wake up.
Windows 10, on the other hand, has a lot of add-ons and features that one may need to disable. Not the biggest deal, but kind of annoying. You might be perfectly happy with the software. But for me, I needed to employ several hacks to get the laptop configured the way I wanted it. Microsoft wants you to use only their products, and if you want to use others, even your own virus software, you will have to do a little work to use your favorite apps. Be prepared for a little extra work. To me, a new computer should be like a blank slate, but this one came pre-programmed with its one ideas of what you are and are not allowed to have.
