This movie has three "totals". Total fantasy, total fictional activities, and totally enjoyable. If you liked the original RED, you can't help but really like this one. If you've never seen the original, do yourself a favor and pick up both for a doubly good time. Just add popcorn.

I was looking for an "adventure" movie to watch on a plane trip and settled on this one. I had never heard anything about this movie - good or bad. I'm generally leery of movies or tv programs that use old show titles to hype their product, but I went with this anyway. Sorry I did. I found the movie to be confusing, lacking any logical progression, and as unreal as Captain America (which were entertaining movies and you know going in that they were fantasies). I enjoyed the original Man From UNCLE series when it was released years ago but this attempt at a prequel fell on its face.

I had to replace a 5 year old Netgear router that was on 24/7 all that time and developed a problem with the WiFi section. Sometimes I feel like Best Buy salespeople are working on commission. The salesman really tried to push me into either of two more expensive selections because of their (undefined) superiority. I bought Netgear because I have had three Netgear routers and they have all given me good service. I bought this model because of the "beam forming" connection it supposedly makes. The router is located in the extreme end of our house and I had problems, sometimes, connecting WiFi to it from the opposite end of the house. I guess the beam forming works because I get a good, reliable connection now. I've had zero problems with it and installation was as near to automatic as you could expect. I'm glad I bought this model. The only, very minor, negative comment I have is that the lights on it are too bright. It lights up the room too much at night when all the room lights are turned off.

I was looking for a fast 64GB SDXC memory card for a new camcorder I had bought. I narrowed my selection to either this chip or one considerably more expensive. I could discern no difference between the two so I asked for help from an employee. He told me the more expensive one is faster. "No", I said, and pointed out that they had the same rating. After a few more false starts, he said that the more expensive one was a "premium chip". I said, "Thanks, you've convinced me that they are the same so I'll take the cheaper one." I've used it on all the settings on my camcorder and it works perfectly. Max frame rate and max resolution - no problem. I'm glad I bought this one.

I had a Zip that I really liked but it gave up the ghost after 3+ years. Since I don't like wearing anything on my wrist, that really limited the field of selections, I decided to go with the One. Things I like: It keeps track of the things I'm interested in and is easy to set up, read, and use. And the battery lasts a reasonable 10-14 days between charges.
The down side: While adequate for indoor viewing, I'd like to see a brighter display. Going over the same 2 mile route, the One reads about 5% more steps than did my Zip. I'd give this unit 5-stars except for two things. There are ZERO instructions packed in the box with the unit. Just a paper telling you to go to their website (which doesn't even describe using the contents of the box you just bought. 2nd, Fitbit's app that runs on my Kindle Fire HDX will NOT rotate and forces me to turn my Kindle upside down to use it. Fitbit "broke" this app months ago, they have been repeatedly told about it, and they have chosen to ignore their users.
If you don't need detailed instructions and have no problem with the app, I'd recommend the Fitbit One.

HP - ENVY 5660 Wireless All-In-One Instant Ink Ready Printer - Black
Easily create professional-quality photos and rich text on the go using this HP ENVY 5660 e-all-in-one printer's mobile printing capabilities, such as HP ePrint, which let you wirelessly print from select smartphones and tablets.
Another new printer, another load of HP crapware
Customer Rating
4.0
HP Envy 5660 printer. I had a wonderful little 3in1 HP Photosmart C4100 printer that did everything wonderfully...but it gave out one me. I checked available printers and ended up with a HP Envy 5660 printer. Except for the rather stupid series name, it's actually a pretty good 3in1 printer. Not having a landline, I see no need for a built in fax. Just something else to go bad.
Things I like: Fast, easy set up. Wireless printing from my phone. Very good color and printouts in general. Two-sided printing is a real plus and I really like the paper cassette. It loads just like an office copier keeping the paper clean and out of sight AND holds more paper then the open tray models.
Things I don't like: Does not auto-turn on when sensing an input from the computer. An arm that automatically extends to catch paper output does not retract when finished printing, leaving itself susceptible to easy damage, so I disabled it. Now the prints fall to the floor. Yet ANOTHER series of printer cartridges that probably will fit nothing besides this years models. Comes with more self installed crapware from HP. I wanted to try HP "Instant Ink" but was unable to sign up for it. An email to HP was completely ignored. Navigating the on-printer menu is slower and more cumbersome than my previous printer(s).
Bottom line. I feel it's better than many in its price range and no worse than most. In spite of its negatives, I like it.

Fill your room with big and balanced sound with this Logitech Z313 980-000382 3-piece speaker system featuring a 4" subwoofer and a control pod to easily adjust the volume and headphone controls.

Customer Rating

What's great about it: Easy plug n play
What's not so great: Weak base
Logitech makes some good products and I've used many of them. I bought this speaker set because it sounded better that its price rivals. It does its job -- it provides audio for my videos and sound for my games. What's not to like? The speakers are small enough to fit easily on my desk and the bass box is not overly large. It has an inline black box with on/off switch, pilot light, head phone jack, and volume control. All of which I have no need for because it simply duplicates controls that I have on my computer. The speakers are plugged into the same power strip that turns on/off my entire computer system.
If you like loud music, this little 25 watt unit might be a little on the light side for you. Also, the bass is a bit weak. One thing I'm somewhat weary about is the "screen door" weave on the speaker grills. If you live in a dusty environment, or with the passage of enough time (my last powered speakers lasted over 15 years), the dust build up behind the grills and on the speakers might be a problem.
Overall, I'm satisfied with this purchase and have no problem recommending it with the caution to consider the comments I've made.

Will this fit the 3T passport hard drive? The "older" version - not the newer brick one...
I suggest taking your HD with you to the store. If it looks like it should fit, buy it and see if you drive fits acceptably. If not, get a refund before you even leave the store. Or, just perhaps, the clerk will let you open the box and try it before buying it.
