This is the first mini DisplayPort cable I have used. It works fine, but it cuts off about a 1/4 inch of the screen on all sides. This may be an issue with the computer, but I haven't been able to find any adjustments that fix the issue. Even with this minor issue the cable works really well. Just plug it in and you have audio and video on your HDTV.

I replaced my Comcast owned modem/router combo unit with this modem and a Linksys AC1900 wireless router. These units work amazing together. I used to experience delays initially loading pages, and occasional sluggish operation of the Comcast modem. No more! This modem also has room to grow as technology changes.

I bought this for my girlfriend to replace her iPad Mini 1 that suffered a broken screen. It was an affordable upgrade compared to the Mini 4. The 2 is a little faster than the 1 and runs smoothly. The size is also very nice compared to the larger models.

I purchased this unit for a spare bedroom that we use for both visiting nieces and walking on the treadmill. The BluRay/DVD option is great for the girls to watch movies. The added Netflix option is also great for movies, but works great for watching tv shows while walking on the treadmill. Sure beats paying for another cable box that doesn't get used regularly!

I purchased this memory card to compliment a new PC purchase. I purchased the Lenovo 100S from Best Buy and added this memory card to store my Google Drive files on. Once inserted I set up Google Drive and used the memory card as the save location. Doing this allows me to keep the hard drive free for programs. Makes a laptop with limited storage much more useful!

The watch works great as a step counter and motivator. I also like knowing if an incoming message or call is one I need to respond to right away. Talking to Siri using the watch is amazing too. If you're looking for a smartwatch and you're an Apple user, look no further!

This game is ok at best. I picked it up for a few bucks on sale, but would recommend you skip this game. It's pretty boring and my nieces only played it a couple times before going back to other games.

This unit makes adding wireless streaming to existing powered speakers very easy. It is also nicer than bluetooth because I can start streaming music and if I move around the house I don't need to worry about keeping a 30 foot or less connection to the player since it works over wi-fi once you get the music playing. It works with a lot of great music streaming apps on my Android phone. I wish SiriusXM included support for casting, but that is a SiriusXM issue, not this device. Google recently added the option to sync multiple units together connected to different speakers and play music simultaneously throughout the house.

I purchased one of these for myself and ending up purchasing two more about a month later for my parents. Set up was simple on my home network. I can now print from any device from anywhere in the house. I also like the scan to email feature. Instead of the app based scan to email HP has, you can also choose to input your email address and password for non-app based scan to email which seems more reliable than the app version. I would absolutely recommend buying this printer.

Windows Starter 7 upgrade
I have Windows 7 Starter and want to upgrade as far forward as possible and as efficiently as possible. Is there an upgrade I can purcahse to go directly from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Ultimate and also from Vista SP1 to Windows 7 Ultimate. It would be great if this is one DVD with several seats so if I purcahse of destop to go along with the laptop and netbook I could apply this. Thanks.
On the computer with Windows 7 Starter you can go to the control panel and click on "System" from there you should see a link to "Get more features with a new edition of Windows 7" This will allow you to purchase the upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate.
As for the Windows Vista you will need to find a Windows 7 disc or Windows 8 upgrade disc. Most of the Windows 7 discs are OEM versions which means Microsoft does not offer support if you encounter problems during installation. For beginners this is probably not a good option.
As far as using one DVD to upgrade multiple systems you can only use one license key per system so each system will need a purchased key to be upgraded.
