It is a good follow up to the other Rainbow games. Intense. Not the best, but fun none the less.

It was entertaining. They did miss the fact that the astronauts used there space suits on the trip home to supplement their oxygen and provide warmth.

It is comfortable and works well. One neat feature is the ability to make the scroll nob click-less to quickly scroll down pages.

I did not know what cable I needed. The employee said I needed this one. It turns out that this is the wrong cable. So did it work? Yes, it worked and was well made. But it did not work as well as the correct cable does. So, if you need this cable, then I would recommend it.

This works as advertised and as MANY people have commented on, the battery life is very short. In our small house, it does about one room before it needs to be recharged, if you are quick. It does pick up a lot - after one run you do need to dump the collectings. A good modification would be to have an external battery (like the power tools) so that you could have multiple batteries and use it longer. FYI, the "no" below is because of the battery issue which will be common to all these battery powered vacuums. If you HAVE to have a battery powered vacuum, this is a great one to get.

Since my iBuyPower PC did not come with a drive, I bought this because it was the cheapest one available. It interfaces with the computer perfectly and works great. No issues at all.

This is easy to use and allows me to use the same XBOX One controller on both platforms. The only drawback is that the controller can only be pared with one platform at a time. Since I would not be gaming on both at the same time, this seems like an unnecessary limitation.

Office is and never was the best product. This is no exception. However, since much of the world uses it, it makes compatibility a little (emphasis on "little") easier. The Apple suite is MUCH better, and so is the Word Perfect suite.

While it is big, the adjustable LED lights is a great feature. I color code them to help me remember which keys should be used and which to avoid while gaming. Also, the Division game takes advantage of this feature and similarly changes them.

This is a great computer! It is my first windows machine since my Alienware from before Dell bought them out. It works great. It is not as fast as my iMac and not as easy to use, but that is windows' issues. Also the gaming is not as consistent, e.g., I have to change audio settings between games (again a windows problem). But the computer works great straight out of the box. It is beautiful. The graphics are awesome. Even my wife when she came in and saw them commented how detailed they are. I have only two minor comments: (1) a manual or illustrative figure would help to understand the ports and what I need to hook it up and (2) I wanted a full sized ATX board (and it came with one) but no where on the Best Buy or iBuyPower websites did it identify that feature. Would I buy another one? Definitely YES! Totally impressed.

Do the plugs go in all the way? I saw what looks like the same item on an online retailer. Numerous reviews there said the plugs don't go in all the way, leaving a gap with exposed metal.

Yes, they go in all the way.

Logitech - K750 Full-size Wireless Scissor Solar Keyboard for Mac - White/Silver
Featuring Internet and multimedia keys, this Logitech K750 920-003677 wireless keyboard makes it quick and easy to access your Mac's frequently used functions. The solar-powered design ensures reliable use in most locations with ample lighting.
 

Logitech k750 wireless solar keyboard for Mac. What do the F13, F14, F15 keys do? What is the purpose of the key to the right of the F15 key with the half-black circle and two lights next to smile and frown emoticons?

I do not know the answer to the first question, but the button to the right of the F15 key checks the charge on the keyboard. You will notice to its right is a smily face and a frown. When you press the button, a green light comes on indicating adequate charge (smily face). Inadequate charge is the lower red light.
