This case does a good job of protecting the iPad mini, but it doesn't provide turn on/turn off for the iPad Mini 4.
Te case is a rubbery texture, not hard plastic, and the design of the back and corners helps protect the corners of the tablet if you drop this thing on concrete. Out of all the cases I've owned, this one makes me feel like my iPad is safest.
My only complaint is that it doesn't turn my iPad off when I close the cover. If you have the iPad Mini 4, you'll probably want to get a case specifically meant for the 4.

This display looks good and works great. I love the dual HDMI inputs, which let me connect two computers to the monitor. When I turn one computer on, the display automatically connects to that computer.
I want to get another one of these monitors so I can have two matching displays on my desk.

It should be noted that this controller works perfectly on Windows. All the buttons do what they're supposed to, and funtionally, I have no problems.
The problem I do have is that the triggers are very stiff, and my hands get tired quickly when using this controller for racing games. Rather than this controller, I'd recommend either an XBox 360 or XBox One game pad, or maybe the SteelSeries game pad.

Personally, I like the XBox One controllers for PC gaming, but I have a couple of games that just don't like the XBox game pads; mostly the problem is the triggers - they don't see the triggers as two separate inputs.
So I got this controller specifically for playing those games, and it works great. My only complaint is that there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off the "turbo" function once it's on for a button, and I have to manually enable analog stick mode by pressing the mode button every time I use this controller.
For the price, it's well worth it.

This lamp is BRIGHT. I mean REALLY BRIGHT.
It also has two additional light modes: a pair of red and a single green LED, so you can use the red LED's to preserve your night vision.
My only complaint is that it uses AAA batteries. Being smaller and with less capacity, it limits the usable life of the headlight, so I may not use this headlamp as much as my other LED headlamps that take AA cells.
But for $10? It's a good deal.

I tried to install this on WIndows 10 using the newest software and drivers from Hauppauge's web site.
All I ever got was "Your device is not plugged into the USB 2 port" when I tried to install it. I finally gave up, returned this unit, and bought a copy of FRAPS.

does any cable come with this monitor and if so, is it HDMI? I need to know what I need to connect this monitor with an HP desk top 5450-126. Thanks

The product info page on Best Buy's web site says it includes a VGA cable. If your desktop has VGA, you're all set. If it has HDMI or DVI, you'll need the appropriate cable.

How many frames per sec.

Is it 60hz and can u hook multiple up together
It's a 60Hz monitor.

As to using multiple monitors together: most computers have 2 or more display outputs, so that's up to your computer.

Do monitors with ips have a better picture quality?

You generally get better color and a wider viewing angle. Non-IPS monitors tend to look funny when you look at them from the side or from above or below. IPS looks better from an angle.

How do I turn on my monitor

I just installed my new computer and monitor and don't know how to turn it on.
The power button is on the bottom of the display, over at the right side.

Can i use apple tv on this monitor

Yes, but there are no speakers, so you'll either need a speaker system with an optical input, or you'll need an HDMI de-embedder.

You're probably better off buying an actual TV for your Apple TV box, rather than using a computer monitor.

This is a monitor. It has no effect on what operating system (Windows) you use on your computer.

This only has hdmi input, what does that mean?I just want to plug into CPU & go.

THis monitor has 2 HDMI inputs and one VGA input. So you just need the right cable.

If your computer only has VGA, then use a VGA cable. If your computer has DVI, then use a DVI to HDMI cable. If your computer has HDMI, then you just need an HDMI cable.

compatibility

Is this cable compatible with Mac?
It will connect a Mac with an HDMI output to a DVI monitor. You will have to look at your Mac to see if it has HDMI on the back.

However, it's not the best choice. All the new Macs have Mini DisplayPort connectors, and so a mini DisplayPort to DVI would be a better choice for connecting a DVI monitor to a Mac.
