I got this little laser printer cause I got tired of my Epson inkjets always needing to be realigned and printheads cleaned every time I wanted to print. If you print often enough that problem may not occur, but I only print every couple of weeks or so.
The M15w is fast, takes up little space, and prints well. And it might be the cutest little laserjet too. You've come a long way since the HP5L, HP.

I own a 310 mouse, so I wanted to try an upgrade and got the 600. I wound up with 2 of them, and while they fit nice and feel good (due to the weights inside no doubt) both exhibit a problem I've read about in other reviews. They tend to freeze up, especially in games. I have the mice on 2 different gaming rigs but the symptom is the same.
I use a KVM, and I found that plugging the mouse in directly to a USB port on the PC seemed to help. Defeats the KVM purpose though. It's also possible that the mouse dislikes USB hubs. The solution when it freezes is to unplug it and plug it back in - the problem causing it is a mystery.
So I cannot recommend one at this time, due to the randomness and the bad timing when it freezes.

I've had this unit over 6 months now with no issues at all. If I were to nitpick the only thing I would prefer changed is the width of the stand or base. Just a bit wider, is all.

I really like the Z506 - sound good, easy to control, plenty of cable for the rear speakers. And when no one is around for me to bother, I park the headset and play my games through these in 5.1.

Bought this for my HD Fire 8 tablet, but had to stop using it due to constant dropping out of the memory card. It'd see it, use it, then the card would disappear until ejected and reinserted. Other micro cards work just fine in the Fire, and I will be testing the Samsung in other devices but as of now I cannot recommend it.

First, the good - sound quality was fine.
2 things make me give it 3 stars though. The snap on battery extender/recharger has to be used to get the 8 hours advertised. Second, the awkward weight pull of the controller & battery is really obvious & bothered me quite a bit.
Bottom line: there are plenty of ~$25 BT earphones this season, which makes it hard for me to recommend this set.

TL;DR Having worn Fitbits for the past 4 years - I track heart rates closely due to having heart failure - I can say I recommend the Apple Watch due to its versatility. Definitely not its accuracy.
The positives are available apps, water resistance, longer battery life than the first watches, and let's face it, a Mickey Mouse watch face. The main negatives are relative short battery life (2 days versus 4-5 days with a lesser Fitbit), and inaccuracy in exercise.
Since I got the Apple Watch some 40 days ago, I've been wearing both my Charge 2 & it all the time for comparisons. Heartrate wise, they seem fairly identical.Steps however, were way off at first on the Apple. It always lags the Fitbit but at first it could be 1000s off. Plus, if you told Apple you were doing an outside walk and then did one for 15 minutes, it might only credit you with 2 minutes.
Turns out there is a calibration step you can do on the Apple to get both issues more accurate. You'd think Apple would tell people about it at the beginning, but you'd be wrong. But even with calibration it still insists on evaluating exercise not just accepting your choice of exercise. In terms of exercise (however defined) the Watch severely lags the Charge 2.
So get it for looks, apps, etc. Carefully Google the exercise part and be aware it may never be all that accurate in comparison to others.

The base Trace930 model is an excellent computer for its price range, particularly when on sale. I made the following changes to make it even better:
* Swapped out the 1060 video card for a 1080 from a lesser computer I already owned
* Replaced the 500W power supply with a 750W (500W is the bare minimum for a 1080 video card)
* Added a 1TB SSD
* Added a H100i liquid CPU cooler
This updated system scored in the top 97th percentile on Passmark's Performance Test suite, runs quiet, and hasn't gone above a 55C CPU temp no matter what game I try. Just go easy with the LED light setup it comes with and your appreciation of the system will be complete.
If you don't have an extra 1080 card lying around - and who does - then the Trace931 would be a worthy upgrade.

What brand is the power supply, what power, and what is the rating like is it bronze,silver etc

Mine was 500W. As I knew I needed a bigger power supply I swapped it out immediately for a 750W. I didn't pay attention to the ratings though, sorry.

Is the video card on a board or on a pci express?

It's a standard everyday video card in a PCI-E slot. Completely replaceable, I swapped in a 1080 card instead for example.

if I buy it on the shop, can I pick up immediately?

Hmm ...
(scratches head)

If you meant if you buy it online can you pick it up immediately? If your local BB store has it in stock, yes.
(Though technically an hour is the time needed before store pick up)

Does the gtx 1060 in this pc qualify for a free download of Destiny 2?

Usually, you must buy the video card by itself to qualify for free games.I bought this computer last weekend and didn't qualify for anything.

Will this work on a six-month-old Dell inspiration 7000 series with a SSD hard drive already in it? Dell - Inspiron 2-in-1 15.6" Touch-Screen Laptop - Intel Core i7 - 12GB Memory - 512GB Solid State Drive - Gray

The answer depends on the question. Did yours only come with a SSD for storage, or does it have a SSD and a 2.5" regular hard drive as well? Without a specific model number this is what I found:

The latest Inspiron 7000 comes with a M.2 SSD and possibly a regular laptop hard drive. You can go to Control Panel - Hardware - Device Manager - Disk Drives to see what you have. An M.2 model should have M.2 in the description.

* You cannot replace the M.2 SSD with this SSD. An M.2 is a small DIMM memory-sized unit that plugs directly into the motherboard.
* You could replace the 2.5" hard drive with this SSD. This would require an external USB drive holder in order to transfer all data over before installation.
* If your unit could have had a 2.5" drive but you chose not to, then there is most likely room & SATA cabling to plug it in.
* Doubtful otherwise there's either space or SATA plugs to add this as an additional drive.

Does this tv have an external, rectangular power supply between the wall plug and where you connect to the tv? Or, is there just simply power cord? What is marked on the external power supply? Output volts (vdc), amps and watts. Thx
