Having grown up playing Playstation 1, 2, 3, and now 4 games, this controller has a very familiar layout and works very well with a PC. I purchased two for a RetroPie project I was creating for my parents, they love it, my sister's kids love these controllers. Good price!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am an amateur photographer, and I was looking for a tool to help me with my post processing. I settled upon this version, as you are able to use the tablet as a touch pad in addition to the pen stylus. There is a bit of a learning curve in using the stylus if you've never used one before.
I appreciate the larger area that the touch pad offers over my laptop's touch pad. However, it can start to feel a little small when using the stylus.
The only thing I am not so happy with is the software. I use GIMP, and I can't seem to set up my stylus the way I want it to function. Perhaps if I had Photoshop, it wouldn't be a problem, but the pressure does nothing, and the eraser doesn't erase.

What's great about it: Low price, large size, bright picture
What's not so great: low quality audio
This television was picked up this past December during Cyber Monday week for $199. Great price for a large screen, we utilize this in our bedroom with a Chromecast for Netflix. Since it isn't our primary TV, we don't mind the 720p difference. My only complaint is the audio is really my only complaint. The lower settings still are loud, and the quality is lackluster, but to be expected from small on board speakers. This television is a great second room display.
This product has... Easy to set up, Great value and features for the price
About me... Technically savvy viewer, Love to stream movies
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have a internet modem from spectrum if i will buy this it will work

Yes. You will connect the Spectrum modem to the WAN port, or yellow labelled INTERNET on this router. Then you can either connect vie Ethernet or Wifi to the router.

I would also suggest you find a cable modem compatible with Spectrum. When Time Warner Cable started charging a few for modem rental, I bought one from Best Buy. No more recurring charge for rental of a modem!

Will this pad work with GIMP?

I have been using it with GIMP 2.8 myself. However, the eraser portion doesn't function as an eraser, it works like the tip of the stylus. Also, pressure doesn't seem to work either. I'm not sure if I am missing settings in the Wacom software, or if GIMP just doesn't support those extended features.
