We got this phone system to set up a home office. Although we haven't completed the set up, the use we've gotten from this phone is amazing. We can use the intercom and speaker phone to communicate throughout the house, and almost every call we take, we end up on speaker phone, and I must say, it is a very clear signal.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Seagate - Backup Plus Slim 1TB External USB 3.0/2.0 Portable Hard Drive - Black
Store and manage your digital life locally with this Seagate Backup Plus Slim STDR1000100 hard drive, which lets you back up content from select social networks or media stored on select mobile devices. The slim design facilitates portability.
It backs up fine...but too much
Customer Rating
2.0
When I first purchased the drive, it was to supplement a WD 3TB drive that had backup software that didn't work very well. The Seagate drive seemed to work much better...until now.
I had configured the backup process according to the instructions, and all seemed to work fine. Knowing that 3TB was much more than I needed for all my documents, I had also created a photo back up folder that I manually used to save copies of my pictures. All that seemed to work fine until I checked today. The software had apparently stopped backing things up because the drive was FULL! No notification, no warning, no indication that there was a problem THREE WEEKS ago. If I hadn't gone in to look at it, I still wouldn't know that my recent files weren't being backed up. :-(
So I looked into deleting the older duplicate files, but I can't find any way to reduce the size of the back up folders. All the directories the software created are labeled as incremental, so I can't just delete the older ones. The documentation says that multiple copies of any changed files are kept, but I can't find where they are. The only files that seem to be backed up are new ones, but there are a lot of folders created where SOME files could be saved, but they are empty by the time I get to the bottom of the chain.
Sorry, but I now can't recommend this product. It appears that I will have to delete the backup plan, along with all the files that it saved for me, and recreate a new plan that will start the same process all over again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Easy to Install
What's not so great: Too small
I seem to be running out of ink all the time. It would be nice if there were options to get a 2x size cartridge. They claim this is a XL cartridge, but it is the same physical size as the regular one. Does that mean the regular one is only half full??

I have now spent more on ink than on the printer itself. It would be nice to print a few more pages before having to change out yet another cartridge.

What's great about it: Bright colour
What's not so great: Keep having to change
Although the printer is good and the colours are great, the cartridge is just too small. If I could get a larger one, I wouldn't have to change it out so often.

What's great about it: Easy to use; only one button!
What's not so great: Have to reset the camera every time I want to use it
The only problem I've come across so far is not in the product, rather in the camera. Once I set the camera to be controlled by the external button, it all works fine, BUT when I turn the camera off and back on, it has lost the setting, so I have to reconfigure it each time. At least the menu of recent changes saves me time.

What's great about it: Initially it holds everything you get with a new camera
What's not so great: Too soon, you find that it doesn't have enough space for all the new stuff
The bag I received off the shelf was apparently defective. The padding on one side had been all scrunched down, making the wall uneven to the point where the camera didn't fit very well. Trying to push the padding back into place didn't work at all, so I'm just suffering with it, hoping that no one bumps the top edge of the side as it would impact the camera directly.

What's great about it: Lots of options/settings
What's not so great: Too many buttons to memorise
My first DSLR camera, suggested by a friend. He has the 5100 and would upgrade to the 5200 but skipped ahead instead to the 7100!
Lots of things to learn about cameras; the online videos are a help; technical advice abounds.
Fun to play with, finally getting to see what I'm doing instead of watching a small screen. Now I'm in the market for a printer that can handle the resolution needed to print full-sized pictures...oh, and a few more lenses!

What's great about it: Works as expected
What's not so great: Had to get two to get one to work
The first battery delivered seemed to work, but the camera wouldn't display the amount of charge remaining. I took it back to a store, returned it, and had the techie there reorder it online. When the second one arrived, it worked just as expected, so the first one must have been defective.

Is it Apple iMac compatible
Will I be able to transfer my pictures into my new Apple IMac computer. Is the camera compatible.
Thank you
Thank you
Any computer with an SD card slot will be able to access the pictures you've taken, so I would say Yes, it should work fine. Transferring picture files via the USB cable should also work.
