Can I purchase any LCD tv for outdoor use

If you intend on leaving the TV outside you would need to purchase a TV intended for outdoor use. Most TVs are not weather resistant, but we do have a number of options here: http://bbyurl.us/Sunbrite.

I hope this helps!

What video card fits my computer?

I have a Sony vaio desktop computer. It is 4 years old and I just upgraded the OS to Windows 7, only to discover that it doesn't recognize my on board video card. It keeps coming up as "Generic Video card". So I want to upgrade the video card. Which ones are compatable?
In order to answer this question you would need to list the specific model number of your desktop. I would suggest going to your local Best Buy® store with your model number, and they should be able to point you in the right direction.

Hope this helps!

TV

What last longer a LCD or Plasma TV
Typically LCD TVs are rated to last longer than Plasma TVs, and the reason for this is that Plasma TVs run substantially hotter than LCDs. As with most electronics heat is the enemy, and is often the underlying cause of a failure. LED back-lit LCD TVs are rated to last even longer than LCD TVs.

Will it hurt battery life to recharge an iPod Touch often, or is it better to wait longer in between chargings?

It is usually better to wait until a rechargeable battery is almost exhausted before recharging, but I can say that rechargeable batteries have gotten a lot better over the years.

Where can I get a HP dv6000 laptop (silver) keyboard?

One of the shift key on my laptop came off and I am trying to replace it. I have asked some computer technicians about it and they advised me that it would be better if I just switched the entire keyboard.
You could look to see if our parts website has this keyboard for sale here: http://bbyurl.us/partsearch.

can I use an older lens with a new digital camera?

I have an old Olympus om 10 and would like to use the lenses that I already have with a new Olympus digital camera. Can I do this?
Olympus DSLR cameras do not use the OM mount, which means your old lenses on a modern Olympus DSLR.

Hope this helps!

Nikon Digital Camera

Will I be able to buy this camera from the store itself? I would like to know if this would be the right camera for me, because I would like to get into professional phatogerphy, the sku# is 9758692.
Thank you
You should be able to purchase this camera from your local Best Buy® store as long as they have them in stock at the time of the purchase. To see if your local store has this model in stock you could call them, or you could click on the Check Shipping & Availability link on the product page.

With that being said this camera is not meant for professional photography, and I would suggest looking at purchasing a professional model DSLR if you want to start working professionally. The DSLR that would work best for you professionally really depends on the type of photography you would need it for, but I have included a couple of professional model DSLRs below.

Hope this helps!

what is the device to connect to wireless internet?

A computer needs a wireless card in order to connect to an existing wireless network. Unless the laptop is very old it should have a wireless card built-in.

Most desktop computers don't have a wireless card built-in, but you could purchase an internal or external wireless card for a desktop computer. With an internal wireless card you should make sure your desktop has an open PCI slot on the motherboard.

Some examples of wireless cards are below.

Hope this helps!

how do i transfer software from one computer to a new one

There are a number of ways to copy files off of your old computer onto your new computer, but the easiest way would be to use an external storage device (i.e. a flash drive, or an external hard drive). To do this just copy the files you want to transfer onto your external storage device, connect this external storage device to your new computer, and then copy and paste your files into the appropriate folder(s) on your new computer.

With all that being said software cannot be transferred from one computer to another, and this is because software needs to be installed on a computer. The way to do this is to insert the CD that you received when you purchased the software into the new computer DVD/CD drive, and then follow the directions on how to install it. If this software was downloaded off the internet you would need to download the software again, or contact the software manufacturer to get a copy of the software you purchased from them.

I hope this helps!
