I used this router to replace a defective ActionTec router that was constantly dropping wireless printer connections and ultimately failed. This router almost self-configered itself and I had the network back up in about 10 minutes. Great product, excellent range.

What's great about it: Print speed, ink cost
What's not so great: Cannot do ethernet and wireless at the same time
Our organization is split between wired and wireless users. We expected that this printer could handle both as the sales documentation would allow it to have that capability. It cannot. You can connect wired for setup only but must print wirelessly for all devices to print. Other than that small, or not so small issue, it's a fine printer. Print quality is excellent even on poor quality paper.

What's great about it: Power output to drive devices surely meets my needs
What's not so great: Could be smaller, but OK
I had an 8 port hub that slowly began losing data connectivity on its ports, one at a time. I needed one that had good power output and this one met my needs. Works great!

which is better and why? PNY - Elite X 256GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive Model: P-FD256EX-GE SKU: 5387034 or PNY - Turbo 256GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive - Black/Gray Model: P-FD256TBOP-GE SKU: 8052124 /

I have not tried the Turbo but did consider it. The Elite was recommended over the Turbo. It was fast and worked for me. I'm quite pleased.

HP - 304A 3-Pack High-Yield Toner Cartridges - Cyan/Magenta/Yellow
Featuring cyan, magenta and yellow HP ColorSphere toner, this HP cf340a 304A toner cartridge 3-pack lets you print documents with bright, brilliant colors and high-quality results. Each cartridge yields approximately 2,800 pages for reliable use.
 

I'm trying to buy ink for a printer I have... I feel like there's a mistake.

My printer has cc532a, cc533a, cc531a, and 304a. Could I really be expected to pay 700$ for ink?!?!
Right now Best Buy has the 304A 3-Pack color toners on sale for $265.99. They carry the black as well, I usually buy the black in 2-packs as black gets used up quicker.

Will this connect my apple tv to my tv?

It will provided you have an HDMI input on your TV. TVs made in the last 5 years or so all have them. Take a look at the back of your TV and see if there is one or more there that look like they will accept the HDMI cable.

 Apple - iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi 128GB - Gold
Apple - iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi 128GB - Gold
The thinnest iPad ever is also the most capable. It's loaded with advanced technologies, including the Touch ID fingerprint sensor.
 

laptop vs ipad

I currently am using an older Powerbook (15' inch screen). Was considering an ipad but not sure if I would miss the large screen I'm used to.
I have that same iPad you are looking at, I also have a laptop - MacBook Pro. I had the same concerns you do. Each have their place. But I will say that I have no problems with the screen size of the Air 2. For what it does it does best and I use it much more than the laptop. Help this makes your decision a bit easier. However if you are really concerned about screen size look at the iPad Pro.
