So I got this for my wife to play in her office and I must say I love it. It is the second one I have had to get, the first being for me. The only complaint I have is that her WiiU ID was tied to the one WiiU at first. And you can not change out WiiU's without moving everything over. So she had to make a whole new account just because Nintendo ties the console ID with your own forever.

Within Kaspersky you have the option to have various types of security from the very basic to fine tuned only this or that picks. Overall a great program that doesn't bog down your computer. The only minor issues I have had is that there is always downloads or updates. Which is great, means they are always improving. Just means you have to download more often is all. Which the program does alot of that itself without worry on your part.

Without spoilers the story is intriguing, full of both lore and an interesting way of telling 2 sides of a story. Graphics are great and very smooth with their 1080p native running on the xbox. Just goes to show that higher frames without sacrificing quality if quiet possible on the Xbox 1.

The system itself works great and does exactly what it should. Play vita games on my monitor/tv. The problem is the price difference between this one and the bundle is only $20. Got and buy the bundle just for the extra controller and the Lego Movie digital game.

It is a Peach Amiibo, the better one in my opinion anyway. The pose is much more lively and active then the newer one for Mario Part 10. Besides that it is a Peach Amiibo. Who couldn't use a Peach Amiibo in their Amiibo collection.

The headphones themselves are comfy and give great quality. But the lack of over the ear covering and anything past normal stereo makes them lacking in other headphones in the market. If you need a basic set for skype, basic youtube video watching, or what not then this will work just fine. If you want something for gaming or high audio listening of any kind then I would pick something abit higher in specs.

I love it for what it does. I didn't want another streaming/Hulu plus/netflix/or anything of kind of devise. I wanted a vita game playing on my monitor system. The only complaint I would give to this is that lack of 1080p on my games. The vita I have, which was the first released version with the OLED screen, plays all my games at 1080p when they support that. So why can't the Playstation tv?

The game itself looks nice with improved graphics and animations. The problems I found with the game were the random glitches, repetitive cheese like moves for characters, and lack of actual variety. Most all characters have the same style moves with little difference then the animations on screen. Some characters haven't even changed move sets from the previous games.

Renewal

I got 6 months free coverage with your software from Best Buy with the purchase of new computers. Now it is renewal time and they want me to pay $50 for one year, while this deal offers two years for the same cost. Can you tell me if this is the same software and if I can use this deal to extend my coverage? This is what Best Buy says I have on their renewal...Webroot SecureAnywhere IS for 3 PC's/Mac 1Yr Ren. It is hard to tell which software is which. Need to know asap as renewal date is soon. Thanks.
Based on that info yes you can buy this and use the key inside to renew the current version you have. Just make sure to get the version that says SecureAnywhere so that the program key matches what you already have.

Answer calls or enjoy your favorite music and movies with this Logitech H540 headset that features a plug-and-play design for easy USB connectivity. The noise-canceling microphone reduces unwanted background sound for clear conversations.
 

What is your recommendation on a high quality USB microphone for voice recording.

The intent is to record audio for training purposes.
I would say depending on the price range Blue Yeti or snowball mic work very very well. The same for the Samson co1u and anything after that model. For them the price can range a bit higher up in the $100 range or more. But they offer very good recording for a USB style mic. Next step up would be something with and XLR cable. Also any kind of pop filter will help, either a shield infront or a fitted one over the mic itself.

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMENDED MEMORY CARD FOR NIKON COOLPIX L18?

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMENDED MEMORY CARD FOR NIKON COOLPIX L18?
Any of the Sandisk Ultra or high cards. You want at least 30 Mbps of speed, which is basically of the class 10 cards. You could go for the Extreme Pro series but that is more for DLSR's or the Compact Camera series. Speed is important for transfers based on how fast the camera is.
