I love the film noir sci-fi element to this movie. Great acting and plot. The overall look of the blu-ray is awesome. Much better than the DVD I watched back in the 90's.
I would recommend this to a friend!

 Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

It works well and picks up most of the channels in my area. Some are still a little choppy, but that could be the station's fault. Easy to set up and I like the flat design.

Take on the role of the powerful Kratos and arm yourself with his deadly double-chained blades as you pursue your goal of ultimate destruction. Picking up where the action of God of War II left off, this epic conclusion to the mythological trilogy thrusts you into battle against the Army of Olympus at the reignition of the Great War.

turbotax for Mac deluxe 2014 requires new operating system

I have used turbotax deluxe for several years. i downloaded the 2014 version from amazon and it requires operating system OS X 10.7 or later - mine is 10.6.8. I do not want to upgrade because much of the software I normally use will not run on he current OS X versions. Can I replace the version I have bought with one compatible with 10.6.8
I doubt Turbo Tax will support an older version of OS X. I hate to tell you this, but you are going to have to upgrade sooner or later or your Mac will become a security concern and you won't be able to purchase new software for it. There are some options from Turbo Tax at this link: https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2581940-mac-os-10-6-8-supported

I'm looking for NAS storage that is compatible with both pc and mac

I own a Mac and my husband has a PC. This says that you have to reformat this device to use it with a Mac. Is there a way to use it with both a Mac and a PC?
Both Macs and PCs should be able to use drives formatted as FAT32. You will most likely have to reformat this drive while it's connected to a PC.
