From all the on line reviews the TV is great and I had a previous model. The image at night was excellent; however, it was not that bright in my room during the day, which has a large picture window. I cannot actually speak to this TV for when opened it a fine hairline crack across the entire screen along the area where the electronic concealment ends on the back top portion. I suspect the TV flexed during shipping along the area resulting in the crack. I did not realize the OLED screen was so fragile so I urge caution when moving. From all the reviews, if you use appropriately I don't think you could go wrong with this TV. However, a friend of mine did get TV channel logo burn-in in lower right corner after about 3 months of watching the same channel for 8 or so hours each day.

I have these speakers paired with a Sonos Connect Amy attached to a computer. I also have them paired with a Sonos sub. The sound is crisp and clean with no distortion. The speakers have a clean modern look and heft to them. I cannot speak to the built it AI for I do not use it.

The soundbar is solidly built and for an average size room (12 x 12 to slightly larger) produces good sound. Paired with the subwoofer the sound is even better. However, given its length/size for me stereo separation into L and R channel with dispersion did not seem to be that great.

These rear speakers match the soundbar and sub I purchased OK. However, compared to the sub and soundbar they seem to be cheaply built, but for 99.00 I decided to keep. I would describe the sound from them as average. My Polk Signature S10 speakers produce much better sound.

The sound bar produces good clean sound. It has built in effects such as movie, music, etc. The music mode produces L and R channel as expected. The center channel produces nice dialog. The soundbar is still no replacement for a separate component system, but for simplified setup is good.

My printers are Epson and with them I use genuine Epson ink replacement and Epson paper. I have never had an issue with the paper jamming and there is no smearing of ink if you use it appropriately. The brightness is great; not the best but still very good.

I purchased this to use with my Windows 10 Pro system since the latest Microsoft Update knocked out my internal Blu-tooth. The adapter was immediately recognized by Windows 10 and allowed my to pair my blu-tooth mouse and keyboard with no problem. I cannot speak as to if it works with sound or not.

Dell - 21.5" LED HD Touch-Screen Monitor - Black
Easily navigate Web sites, menus and your media with this 21.5" Dell S2240T LED monitor, which features a 10-point multitouch display for simple operation. The 1920 x 1080 maximum resolution delivers striking high-definition visuals.
will touch functions work on a mac
Can I use this as a touch monitor on a mac running OSX 10.8.3 without a driver? If it requires a driver, is that awful touch-base driver?
Only as a monitor but not for touch capability. Touch requires not only a touch capable monitor but also an operating system that supports touch and currently Mac OS X does not.

Will the touch feature work with a NVR?
The monitor can be used to connect with an NVR for viewing if your NVR has HDMI output. However, touch capability not only requires a touch capable monitor but an operating system that supports touch. I doubt of the system in an NVR supports touch, but you can check with the manufacturer, etc.

VESA Mounts?
Dont suppose there are VESA mount holes hidden under that bracket plate on the back are there?
The monitor can be mounted using a standard VESA mount. I cant remember if it is 75 x 75 mm or 100 x 100 mm.
