I purchased two of these to help my parents back up files on their computer. They originally were going to save the files to cd, but after explaining that this drive would allow them to add, change and delete files they agreed and were happy we went this route. Now they can access the files on almost any computer and can also view pictures saved on the drive using their HDTV's usb port.

Overall for the price and features included you can't go wrong with this reader. The screen does not have a backlight so you cannot read it in the dark, but it excels in the outdoors. You can perfectly see the screen in the sun whether in a park, or on the beach. If you want to be able to read in the dark (in bed) you may want to consider the Kindle Paperwhite. As far as content, Amazon offers what seems like an endless amount of books. If you own more than one Kindle device it will also sync each device to the furthest page read on any one device. Definitely worth the price.
This product is... Keeps the right amount of e-books, Clear display, A nice compact size, Easy to see in sunlight
About me... Budget Conscious, Student, Technology guru, Business Professional

What's great about it: Easy to install
What's not so great: Limited documentation/support
This review is based on the installation of this OEM package. This is a great option to upgrade your computer with Windows XP to Windows 7 and breathe new life into an existing hardware. The installation for me went very smoothly. I did a clean install, which means Windows deleted the old Windows XP (and all of my files and programs) before installing Windows 7 giving me a "fresh" start. The install took about 45 minutes and about another 45 minutes to install the programs I wanted and virus software. The only downside to the OEM package is you do not receive support from Microsoft if there is a problem. For intermediate to advanced users this is probably not an issue, but if you are not very good with computers you may want to find a computer shop that can install this for you and offer support if there is a problem. Aside from that WIndows 7 is a great operating system.

If you own an Xbox One you must buy this game. Action packed multiplayer! If you like Call of Duty you will like this game. You may even stop playing Call of Duty like me.

What's great about it: Looks/Connectivity
What's not so great: Speakers/Sound
I purchased this radio to replace an old clock radio I used in my bathroom. I used my old radio mainly for checking the time while playing music from my phone speaker (streaming SiriusXM). Compared to my phone speaker this is a nice upgrade. The sound is a little flat (the highs and lows blend in the middle a little bit), but for the price I did not expect Jambox performance. I mainly use the Bluetooth connection to stream music from my phone, but have also used the digital FM tuner which receives local stations easily and clearly. Overall I would recommend this radio for use in a small room for short periods of playing music.

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.
