I like this watch. The interface works great, the build is of good quality. My only issue was that I HATED the wristband it came with, had to search on-line for a 2-piece Velcro band that would work with it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My old DVD copy of this film didn't do it justice on a high-def screen. The BluRay copy far surpasses the DVD in image quality.

Very easy to setup, no unnecessary software or drivers to install. Works perfectly out of the box. My only issue is that I need all of my drives to sit horizontally, and this unit only has rubberized feet for sitting vertically.

I read reviews online regarding bluetooth mice, how they could lose their connection and were not as precise as an RF mouse (with the dongle). Happily, this mouse stays connected and is easy to work with. I only found that it does drain batteries faster than the RF models.

This laptop has very good picture quality, excellent battery life, and the construction feels solid and well-made. The only thing I have an issue with is that if your fingers are slightly larger than average, like mine, you may find the keyboard a little cramped.

I have generally good things to say about SanDisk products. Not this one. I started getting read and write errors after about a week of using this drive. I reformatted several times, didn't remedy the problem. Then it would randomly become write-protected, making it useless. After a while, I could write to it again, until the next write-protect error.

I love these monitors. They were cheap on sale, and I thought the quality might not be the best (though that wasn't critical to my purpose). I was surprised to find that the colors are spot-on accurate, and the monitor response time is excellent.

The picture quality on this monitor is terrific, and the machine itself delivers good performance. Occasional glitches - when playing The Sims, there is an error message saying that the laptop cannot support the default resolution of the game. Have yet to figure out why the game isn't using the GPU.

How many pages of files does this hold?

The number of files, and thus the number of "pages," greatly depends on the size of your files. That is, if the files you want to save include only text that you've typed, then you'll be able to save many more files than if the files contained pictures, detailed graphics, sounds, videos, etc.

The NETGEAR SOHO Ethernet Unmanaged Switches provide easy and affordable network connectivity to small offices and home/offices. With these Plug-and-Play switches, you can quickly and easily expand your network connections to multiple devices, with no configuration required.
 

Can I plug my Cable Modem into this switch and then run it to my wireless router located upstairs?

I'm using a Apple Time Capsule.
I wouldn't recommend it, because it would serve no useful purpose. The router is what assigns IP addresses to all devices in your home. If your modem and router really need to be that far apart, then I would recommend connecting your router to your modem using a long Ethernet cable.

I need a monitor for studying large maps. I would like one that I can open multiple pages on, and look at them all at the same time.

I need the monitor to be wall mountable, very big, (27"or Larger) and tilt-able. When not in use, I will use the monitor as a slideshow, displaying photos. I would also like to use the monitor as a projector screen for educational presentations/movies. I need it to be very flat, or less protruding as possible. Speaking of flat, what are the benefits to having a curved monitor? And my budget is reasonable.. I would expect to spend $250 or more, and I think $800 is a little on the ridiculous side for what I need it for, but I'm not saying I wouldn't do it. Thanks for your input/advice!
The HP 27vx monitor would be perfect for what you describe. If you don't install the base of the monitor, then it is very light and could easily be mounted flat to a wall.
