As a father who cooks for his family, with little to no wiggle room in my schedule, this device is a life saver!
This Anova Sous Vide cooker is everything I imagined it would be... I used it almost nightly to prepare different types of courses. From chicken and steak, to even pickling vegetables or making amazing Creme Brule. And this all happens while I have time to prepare the rest of the meal. Once the timer on the Anova, all that is left to do is finish off the item that has been cooking away. Steaks are done to a perfect mid-rare, with a hard sear to finish, Chicken is moist and juicy before going under the broiler for a few seconds to crisp up the skin...

While the hardware that Comcast rents you is decent, why not put that 'rent' towards OWNING a superior piece of hardware. Very happy with the way the router operates.

This laptop was a spur-of-the-moment purchase, but a much needed upgrade from the dinosaur I was using before. This ENVY is a fantastic product, the 7th gen i7 is a beast, and I could not ask for anything more!

If you are a GoPro purist, you will pay a little more for the branded handle (like I did...). but there are cheaper options on Amazon, or Ebay.

Since I bought this camera, I don't think it has left my sight, apart from when I am sleeping...
My goal was/is to learn enough about how to use the Hero 4 Silver correctly for when my fiance and I go on our honeymoon to the Caribbean. We plan on snorkeling, diving, and sailing; all very awesome GoPro-ing opportunities!

I picked up this bag as a laptop hauler for work. What first stood out to me was the conversion option from single strap to backpack styles.
It contains ample space for everything I need to carry. This typically includes a laptop, at least two 2" binders packed with documentation, and inspection tools.... as well as any chargers/cords I may need.
Overall, very happy with the purchase.
5 stars would have awarded if the bag was a little stiffer/ more protective on the back-side. There is not much padding between the outside and the laptop pocket, just a thin amount of fabric/cushion. For my line of work, there may not always be a pristine, and safe spot to put personal items, so a little cushion goes a long way.
For now, my laptop goes in a sleeve THEN into the laptop pocket.

I owned the game on 360. When I traded it in, I was overjoyed to see that it was coming out for xbox one (eventually)... so worth the wait! Everything about the game is more crisp, and detailed... LOVING IT!

Skip or hiccup in the sound.

There is a skip or "hiccup" in the sound that I cannot get rid of. It is similar to a sound made when there is a scratch on a record or CD. It occurs more when playing music. I am streaming music through Roku 2.
Since Roku is streaming, it may be an internet connection issue. I have been streaming music since day one using Bluetooth, and optical connections. I have never experienced a skip such as you describe.

Perhaps try plugging in a different medium of transfer, like an ipod or MP3 player, play a downloaded song, NOT streaming, and see if it persists. If it DOES, then the issue could be more in the Vizio system.

No speaking sounds only music coming from satellite speakers

Have checked plugs to ensure pluged in correct. Sound bar connected to TV with optical cable. Woofer pluged in and working.
Could it be that your service provider does not broadcast in 5.1 surround sound? just spitballing...
