I bought this laptop as an open box from my local store. I almost immediately upgraded to Windows 10. I have not had any major problems so far. My one complaint is that I cannot figure out how to adjust the touchpad settings. The scroll direction is reversed (scroll up to move down the page) from what I am used to. There is a seamless transition from laptop mode to tablet mode (which is optional). The webcam quality is not the greatest, but it's fine for chatting with family over Skype.

I have both this battery and the Xbox battery and I cannot tell the difference between the two. I would definitely buy this again for another controller! It works well with my Microsoft brand charging cable too.

I have not had any problems with these batteries. I use them in TV remotes and gaming controllers. They seem to last just as long as the more pricey name brand batteries. I do not know how long these batteries would last in devices that need a lot of power (like point and shoot cameras).

The printing quality is great. I love being able to plug my SD card directly into the printer and print pictures directly from the SD card. It is also possible to scan in images and save them to an SD card without using a computer. I have had a few networking problems when I emailed a file to the printer, it did not work. My chromebook also has come connectivity issues with this printer. I have had difficulty printing things from my phone as well, it's not intuitive.

The Inquisition story is no where near as engaging as the previous two games. The game mechanics and battle system are completely different. Some of the changes are nice, I enjoy gathering crafting materials and improving potions/weapons. Overall, I feel this game a poor shadow of the Dragon Age series and it reminds me of Elder Scrolls Oblivion -- except no where near as engaging.

Nothing spectacular, just standard workhorse machine. Has some issues with heavier clothes in that you have to be careful how you balance it. Other than that I'm satisfied with what I got but not amazed.

What is the difference between Insignia and Dynex units? They appear the same. Thanks.

Dynex is essentially the same thing as Insignia. Insignia is typically found in stores and Dynex is sold online.

Can I print photos with this printer and where do I put the photo paper?

Yes. You can print photos. I have printed pictures on 4x6 photo paper. You use the same tray for normal paper and photo paper. You just need to reach into the paper tray and slide the grey plastic pieces together until they are the width of your photo paper.

installation and warranty

can you provide installation service and how much is extended warranty?
As long as you purchase new hoses for the washer (approx. $30) Best Buy will hookup a new washer at no additional cost beyond delivery cost (if any) provided that you have an existing shutoff valve for the water behind the washer and no adapters are needed. The protection plan for an appliance can be found if you place the item in the cart (it will prompt you to add a protection plan).

Can it handle multiple page scan.?

Can it scan multiple pages automatically, or do I need to feed one page at a time maunaully?
There is no feed tray for automatically entering multiple pages. You need to put each page on the glass scanner manually and scan them one at a time.

After you scan your first page, it does ask you if you have another page to scan. You do not have to completely start the scanning process over for every page.

The printer does let you preview your scanned image before you save it. (optional)

Does this washer have an agitater?

No. Modern, high efficiency washing machines do not use agitators. They the bottom of the drum rotates independently of the rest of the drum and rubs the clothes against each other and the plastic on the bottom to achieve the same effect while the rest of the drum is designed to move the clothes from the top to the bottom so everything gets washed. In doing so, they use about 1/3 the amount of water, saving you money.

I understand HE detergent is needed. Is either HE liquid or HE powder okay to use? Is one preferred over the other?

Liquid is petty much the standard and by the nature of the dispenser it is the better option.
