If you are looking for a cheap monitor, then this would be it. I would advise that it does not have an HDMI port. It has a great picture and can be used for additional monitors. Not bad for a cheap ACER monitor.

This adapter is pricey elsewhere. You can purchase this here for about half the price. I will usually buy the manufactures' adapters like HP and DELL. Insignia is the next best thing to OEM parts especially if you want to stay on the cheap side.

I keep a stock of these in my home. They rarely break, but I try to keep two or three around as a just in case. Battery life is great. I only have to replace the battery every 3 or 4 months.

This is the best priced product for users wanting three monitors. Easy installation and setup. The only fault I see with this, is that each port is different. You have a VGA, EVGA and an HDMI port. Just make sure your monitors have at least one of these ports, otherwise you will need to purchase an adapter. Other than that, this is an excellent product.

This is perfect for storing or backing up your files. Only ran into one issue. On Windows 10, the drive letter does not show. Still have not figured out this issue yet. It works on laptop with Windows 10 but not desktops. I am sure I will have this figured out soon enough. This was really meant for my laptop, but would have been nice on the desktop.

Nothing special about the controller as it is the standard for Xbox one. It was on sale for a great price. I usually have to purchase one every year. Even with the Xbox 360 controllers. This is just due to normal wear and tear.

I have always like the Samsung products. This one I would caution purchasing. It does not come with a WIFI device, so you are left using a LAN Cable. I would think that these systems would come with WIFI as a standard. This would have been given a lower rating because of that. the sound is still great and plays DVDs with no issues. It does come with some applications like Netflix, VUDU and a few others. Again, you still need a LAN Cable to make those work. It becomes very restricted in terms of where to put this system. Be prepared to purchase a 25 or 50 foot LAN Cable. I would have gave this 5 stars if it had WIFI on it. I think two stars is appropriate as it is behind the times.

This little guy is awesome for students in high school. Now that they have laptops as a requirement, this smaller drive is perfect. It is barely noticeable on the laptop and sits by the mouse receiver. I would recommend this for students of any age.

I have read all the reviews on Xbox One Chargers and this is the best. We had the other ones and always had an issue. it charges fairly quick and the charge lasts most of the day. I have two gamers that don't complain now. Great Product!

Lenovo - Ideapad 110s 11.6" Laptop - Intel Celeron - 2GB Memory - 32GB eMMC Flash Memory - White
Get everyday computing wherever you with this Lenovo Ideapad 11.6-inch laptop. It includes 32GB of flash storage so that you can store basic files, and 2GB of RAM makes cloud computing a breeze. It also includes a dual-core Intel Celeron processor and Wi-Fi for easy connectivity from this Lenovo Ideapad 11.6-inch laptop.
 

Can I use the Lenovo Ideapad 110S 11.6 Laptop in Europe with just an adaptor of do I need a converter?

You will need to get an adapter for sure but maybe not a converter. I would check the country you plan on visiting. Our Power grids run anywhere between 100V to 240V on a Frequency of 50 to 60 Hz. Check the power cord first to make sure it has this capability then check with the countries' power grid to see if it falls between the voltage and Hz ratings. While I was in Germany, all I needed was the adapter for my laptop. I did not need a converter. In Ireland, I needed both the adapter and converter. Hope this helps.
