The color, the size, the price. What's not to love? Works easily with Apple or Windows platform but initially formatted for Windows. Apple users will have to reformat it via Disc Utility (Utilities in Applications). Take less than a minute.

I would recommend this to a friend!

Here's the skinny on this mount. The Sony TV mount holes are pretty close together which made the TV wobble. There's no way to really secure it from the bottom end. The mount's spring clip system should have held it tight, but the arms of the mount were short and the TV extended way below the arms. How do you secure it then? Do I have to devise something - like a large block of wood inserted behind it? NOT!

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Easy to operate and has enough features on the 43" to satisfy my cravings: optical out, component/composite, plenty of HDMI's. What's not to like and always a good price at BestBuy!

From the moment I turned it on, it has problems. My wife says it's possessed. Screens switch in size, without touching keys, goes to Tools section. I called HP and the Tech updated the bios and changed the parameters of the "display setting." Still behaves like it's possessed. I'm probably going to return it to BestBuy and buy a Dell. I'm spooked on the Envy - better stick with what I had before. Sorry for the bad review.

Apple - 27" iMac® - Intel Core i5 (3.4GHz) - 8GB Memory - 1TB Fusion Drive - Silver

How much memory should a new iMac need to run parallels with windows 10?

It really depends on how you are using it. If you are an an avid photographer or graphic artist, you should have 16GB RAM. Frankly, adding more RAM is not expensive,
like $200 more, so yes, more RAM always.

Can this unit upscale the ps4 slim to 4k?

The Denon AVR-X2400 is capable of producing 4K video when a 4K video device and signal are connected to the receiver. From the manual:

Denon - AVR 7.2-Ch. Hi-Res With HEOS 4K Ultra HD HDR Compatible A/V Home Theater Receiver - Black

How many total watts does this put out?? Shows 2 different things? How much per channel? And how much rms per channel? Thanks.

95 watts for each channel of which there are seven. The other power rating is for 6 ohm speakers instead of the general 8 ohms.

Today, most manufacturers only list RMS ratings. Denon is one of them.

Denon - AVR 7.2-Ch. Hi-Res With HEOS 4K Ultra HD HDR Compatible A/V Home Theater Receiver - Black

I'm struggling to get Dolby Atmos sound out of this receiver. I have a new 4K DVD player (Panasonic DMP-UB900). I have my 5.1.2 speakers setup and sounding great on surround sound but can not get the receiver to indicate it is transmitting Dolby Atmos.

I believe you have to have Dolby Atmos speakers.
