I picked these up to use at the gym because I was tired of my headphone cords getting caught and yanking the ear buds out. I did some research and settled on these which seemed a good balance of price and quality. They work really well. Once I changed out the ear piece so the little horn thing wasn't there, they were exceedingly comfortable and never slipped out. It does take some getting used to, having the cord along the back of your neck, but nothing terrible.
The only issue I have, that keeps me from giving five stars, is that when I'm working out, the signal apparently gets blocked by just my arm or a piece of equipment. I can't leave my phone in my pocket when I stretch, or use certain machines because the music cuts in and out. Doesn't happen often, but it's annoying enough to rate a mention.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is on par with the other DC animated direct to video releases. For me, it's worth watching just to see/hear Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan. If you like the other DC animated films, you'll like this one.

What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Poor quality, cheap, doesn't stay down
I've had Zagg screen protectors on my devices for several years now and love them. High quality stuff and holds up better than any other, which is why I ordered this with my new S5. What a mistake! This is a chincy plastic cover like every other one out there! They just charge more because it somehow got the Zagg name on it. I gave it a fair chance, but it IMMEDIATELY began peeling up on the sides and wouldn't stay down. I ended up talking the Zagg guy at a local kiosk and he gave me a credit towards a new and proper screen protector. he was mystified how I got that because he didn't think they even sold them. Luckily I brought the box with me.

How do I install the software?

I bought this for my macbook. The directions say to open windows explorer but I don't have that explorer; I have safari and firefox. I went to the toshiba support site and they don't list the model as even available. Help.

thanks
Don't worry about the included software. Just format the drive as a Mac drive and it should work just fine. The included software isn't so great anyway so you're not losing anything.

external hard drive compatibility

Is the Toshiba-Canvio 2TB 3.02.0 portable hard drive compatible with an Acer laptop?
Yes but you might not get USB 3.0 speeds. If you have a USB slot, you can use it. Worst case is that you'll be running at USB 2.0 speeds.

My Toshiba laptop is not poweful enough to handle some of my coputer games I like to play. Will the use of a external hard drive help my computer?

Hard drive space has nothing to do with processing power. It either needs a new processor, which really means getting a new laptop, or more RAM, which is fairly cheap and easy to do.

If you're only problem is that there isn't enough room on your internal hard drive to install the game, yes, an external will serve your purposes.
