Using this flash drive in 3.0 ports on two different computers (so far) for backup. Thousands of files and images quickly copied, no glitches, plenty of capacity for what I need. Device comes with a slip-on cover to protect it when not in use, but it's just as easy to leave it plugged in since it is so small. Also, remember how easy it can be to misplace larger size flash drives--this one will be even easier to misplace. But for speed and performance and sale price, it's a great buy at Best Buy.

I purchased this laptop during a special 4-hour sale, knowing it was going to be for someone, but not sure who. It was too good a deal to pass by. Now I found the person who wants it, and I've been installing software, installing the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, and using the computer to see how it performs. I can say that I am very pleased with its appearance (no frills), weight, performance, keyboard touch, display, boot time/shutdown time/hibernation time, etc. If I needed a computer, I would surely get another one, especially for $279.99. I'm going to add 8GB of RAM before turning over the computer to the new owner, and I think that will make this computer simply outstanding for speed and performance for everyday tasks.

I now have three ASUS laptops--a hybrid 10 inch with touch screen, an 11.6 inch with touch screen, and this 15.6 inch. I upgraded the two smaller ones from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 without any problem. The latest one came with Windows 10, and I happen to be one who is very pleased with 10. I have purchased and set up ASUS laptops and desktops for several others, and I recommend ASUS without hesitation. Nice components and features, reliable in the short term and long term. I upgraded the 15.6 inch from 4GB memory to 12GB for $30, and it is lightning fast. With ASUS, you can spend a little or a lot of money, depending on your needs and wants in a computer. Whatever you choose, I think you will be happy. This particular ASUS laptop works very well for me, and I'm expecting a long and happy experience with it.

Our first time buying this product, but we have used Bissell products for years. This spray cleaner does a great job spot cleaning, and as a pre-treatment to doing a steam cleaning of the entire carpet. You should give it a try and see how it works for you.

Found this product on an amazing clearance price, so I decided to try them, even though I doubted they would work, as no OTC cleaning product or stain removal product has worked in the past. The opportunity arose to try out the A&H carpet wipes, and poof! The stain was gone, as was any odor. It's a miracle! The problem? I doubt Best Buy is carrying the product any longer. I'll find them somewhere, unless A&H has stopped making them. Great deal on a great product!

There's not much to say about a pack of batteries. They work fine. My wife uses them in a Sony shower radio and batteries last for months--honestly! The sale price was OK and the number of items available in the store was fine. I trust Duracell as a brand and would certainly buy them again

Logitech Wireless Mouse Marathon M705 lets you power on... and on. It uses less power than comparable wireless mice from other companies, so you'll go up to three full years between battery changes.¹ And it uses a tiny wireless receiver that stays plugged in to your computer, so your mouse is ready to go-whenever, wherever, and for as long as it takes. Plus, hyper-fast scrolling means you'll fly through long documents to find what you need in a flash. Advanced Optical Tracking means you'll get smooth, responsive cursor control. And the sculpted, right-hand shape means you'll be as comfortable finishing up as you were getting started.
 
Original Version Is Great, This One Is Too

I still own and use the original version of the M705 with the longer USB receiver. It has taken a lot of abuse over the years and still works, even though a few times I thought it was dead from being dropped about three feet onto a hardwood floor. It just keeps on working. I wanted the newer version with the nanoreceiver/transmitter to use in more portable laptops. This M705 mouse is the most ergonomically comfortable mouse I have ever used. It's perfect for my hand. I don't particluarly like the free-wheeling scroll wheel (not enough control using it), and I find myself going back and forth between it and the clicking scroll wheel. Fortunately, the toggle switch is right on the top of the mouse for easy access. The old version had a sort of rotating/sliding switch that provided a variable degree of tension that provided more control. The new mouse is either free-wheeling or clicking. Logitech should bring that variable feature back. Battery life is significantly better in the new version--thank you for that! The on/off switch on the bottom of the mouse is much better than the old version. Now it's a simple slide switch. All of the buttons are customizable using the Logitech software, but the mouse can be used "generically" if you want. Maybe one day Logitech will add some cool colors for this model. They could probably sell a lot more if they did. But for comfort and functionality, this is definitely my #1 preferred mouse for home/work use. Thanks to Best Buy for still carrying it.

What's great about it: Simple to use and it works
There's not much to say about a product that is simple to use and does what it is supposed to do. I'm using this to teach iPad classes for seniors, and the adapter makes it easy to connect to the projector. Apple accessories always seem to be well made.

What's great about it: No hardware/software compatibility issues
What's not so great: 150+ Windows Updates after installing
Had a perfectly good Dell laptop running Windows XP, and did not want to throw it away/recycle it. At the same time, I did not want to purhase another new computer and did not want to upgrade to Windows 8/8.1/8.1 Update. So I decided to upgrade to Windows 7, and the intsllation went smoothly. After installing, there were 150+ updates for the OS, and that was very time-consuming. However, it worked, and now I have an OS that will be supported until 2020.. Now if the rest of the computer will last that long...

Is Best Buy an authorized Logitech dealer?

Best Buy sells many Logitech products, and their return/exchange policy covers all products they sell, including Logitech. So I think the "authorized dealer" issue is not really relevant.

How do you get the keyboard, to work

How do you get the keyboard to work
I believe the little instruction "booklet" that came with the keyboard explains what to do quite well. But in simple terms, you charge the keyboard, then turn it on, pair it via the Connect button on the iPad and in your iPad Bluetooth settings (go to the Settings App and to Bluetooth and make sure the ZAGG keyboard is listed, and then tap on the ZAGG Folio Keyboard where you see it listed in Settings). If it doesn't connect at first, try turning the keyboard off and then back on. If all else fails, find someone else to help you who has done it with any keyboard or any other device. The process is always pretty much the same and straightforward. Good luck!

There are two vertical doors on the front. Press the one on the left and the spring-loaded mechanism will open the door, revealing the USB ports. Press the door to close it and you will feel it click closed.
