The cable seems well built. I have it strung from my computer to the tv. It gets stepped on and kicked frequently, and seems to be holding up fine. (I know this is not the intended use.)
I would recommend this to a friend!

I noticed almost 4mbps faster down speeds when I got rid of Time Warner's coax cable and put this one in place of it.

So one of the straps is tearing off after I took the backpack to class 2 times. I plan on contacting Swiss Arms about this issue. Otherwise the backpack is incredibly built. All the pockets fit a persons needs perfectly. Make sure to check it out in store, and plan how you will use the pockets.

This router quite working after literally less than 2 months of use. It was horrible experience the whole two months then it finally gave out. The company refused to refund or replace the item. They also refused to give any solid reasoning as to why. I would recommend a Zoom Modem and an Apple airport Express/Extreme/Time Capsule as a much more powerful long lasting setup. I will not deal with Motorola products ever again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Wire Gauge size ?

What is the Wire Gauge size of the Rocketfish™ - 24' In-Wall HDMI Cable
Hdmi Cables are not measured in gauges. This is an in wall wire so it has a thicker flashing on it. It is probably about a 2 gauge in standard wiring sizes.

Thule - Gauntlet Sleeve for 13" Apple® MacBook® Pro - Black
Safeguard your 13" Apple MacBook Pro with this Thule Gauntlet TAS113 sleeve that features a semi-rigid EVA construction for durability. A clamshell design allows you to use your device while it is in the case.
 

Will it fit a 13.3 Dell Inspiron?

This case is specifically fitted for a 13.3 macbook pro/air

I would assume this would fit the dell fine as long as it is one of the newer slimmer dells.

Running slow?

Hello. I am new to MacBook Pro and it seems like Mac runs slow when i have multiple tabs up. I downloaded something that tells me how much RAM i'm using and it's always 99% and pictures start to not show up. Do i seriously need to buy more? I am a medical student and this is very frustrating. Please help!
I would try a few things because most MacBooks don't have expandable RAM. Fist I would uninstall any uneeded applications. Second I would do a Hard Shutdown of the device aka hold power button until it is shut down. Restart it then immediately open your RAM checking agent. If it is at 99% still I would recommend Investing in Kaspersky antivirus and running a complete scan. Make sure when you shut the computer down that it is closing all applications on it. Try not to leave apps running when you don't need them.

What about gaming??

This laptop is defiantly not made for gaming. The biggest problem it has is the lack of a sufficient cooling solution. It will overheat quite quickly. This is made for productivity. The macbook pro 13 or 15 inches will be much better for gaming. This may handle light games like DOTA or other similar games, but it is not made with those in mind.

Does this laptop have a cd/dvd drive?

No. No modern laptops have disc drives. You have thinner devices that have longer lasting batteries without CD drives. If you need one you can buy a usb superdrive or other external disc drive.

Does this have a very strong wireless signal?

Can it transmit a good wireless signal for gaming, tablets, etc if placed discreetly in a closet, or should I get a router as well?
No. In short. Gaming is near impossible even with a high end signal wired into this device. I can barely get it to successfully stream hd netflix with no other devices attached to the wifi.
