It's a simple story for all ages to enjoy with some of the most beautiful CGI to date. It's like Pixar is shouting, "Look at what we can do!" And they do it very well.

This thing is simple and easy to use and install. It has great features, such as a night light and access from a smartphone. It can send you updates or alert you of an emergency if you're away. The price may seem extreme, but it's not bad at all. You would probably wind up spending $100 on a good fire alarm and a good carbon monoxide detector any way. It's a bonus this product does both.

Pretty decent TV set for the price. The backlighting isn't the greatest, but produce a nice picture overall. Still not a fan of the controller and menu UI, but those are personal issues, not technical issues.

This thing is powerful! It does exactly what it's supposed to. Makes some odd combos of food taste really good when it's pulverized.

These headphones are perfect for producing a clean, clear, and accurate sound of what you're listening to. They are a nice neutral sound with good highs, mids, and lows. They don't exaggerate the low end like another popular brand (I'm looking at you Beats). They fit very comfortably on my head and feel nice on my ears. I love how they fold up and a carrying case is included. Great sounding headphones for the price.

Big Hero 6 has it all! Comedy, action, and drama. There are some heavy themes the movie deals with, but it provides an opportunity to discuss them with your kids. Wonderful film and beautiful animation!

This follow-up to the first of the series was incredible. Along with a strong storyline and characters, the movie tackles a mix of emotions and how to deal with them. This is a beautiful piece of art.

Can one drive be used to back up multiple computers each using Time Machine?

We have two laptops and a desktop computer in one house on one WiFi system, will one external drive work for all three computers as a system backup or does each computer need their own hard drive?
You can use one external hard drive to back-up multiple computers if you partition the hard drive. If you're using time machine, I assume you're backing up Macs. Here is a link to walk you through partitioning your hard drive: http://macs.about.com/od/applications/ss/diskutilitypart.htm

If this isn't the route you want to go, I'd recommend buying an external drive for each computer.
