I wasn't looking for a full-blown home theater setup. I just wanted to get off the TV speakers. To that end, this is a great soundbar.
Setup was very easy. The bluetooth subwoofer wouldn't pair at first, but it was user error on my part. I don't hear any sound lag or any signal issues with the subwoofer.
I wish there were a couple more input options. There's one HDMI, one analog, and one optical. I also wish there were more options to EQ the sound mix. It's pretty bright for my taste. For the price, it satisfies my need just fine.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice sleek design. I could fit it in my pocket, if need be. I'm using this as a backup drive for my main PC. Work well if i need to swap it over to my laptop.
Data transfer is fast. Lots of space to use.
Good drive for the price. I would recommend the Seagate 1TB.

I work from home full time and I needed a new printer for small jobs. This printer definitely fits the fill. The setup was relatively easy, though registration was a pain (I previously registered a product with HP and couldn't remember my password).
Printing works well with wireless. The way the print tray is setup makes it a little awkward to use, but it's not a big deal. I don't print too many documents at one time, which is good for this printer. I can see problems with this printer trying to handle larger documents. It's not that fast and the paper tray would not accommodate mass printing, like a true office printer would. But it's fine for my printing needs.
Scanning is a little awkward. It's slow and saves files under generic names which makes it a little tedious to work with. I don't scan all that much, so I don't mind it. This would not be a great scanner for detailed pictures or fine print documents.
I don't use the fax feature, so I can't comment on that (does anyone fax these days???)
Overall - a good light duty printer for home office.
Pros - easy setup, reliable wireless, solid printing for smaller documents.
Cons - awkward paper tray, less than great scanning

What's great about it: Sticks are much smoother
What's not so great: Previous headsets are not compatible
The sticks on this controller are so much smoother and fluid than the previous generation. I feel like I have more control playing FPS games.
The only downside is that the headset jacks are a new format which doesn't allow for compatibility with existing headsets. I'm hoping manufacturers will release a new adapter and firmware. I spent good money on my PX5s and it stinks to not be able to carry them forward.
One slightly annoying this is that the controller straight up dies when the batteries are low. The previous generation would give you plenty of warning when the batteries were low and if it did die you could still power it up and use it to finish an online match. This generation is done - kaput - when the batteries are low. Keep some batteries handy, or risk dying multiple times while you scramble for batteries to finish an online match.
Overall a great improvement, IMO.

What's great about it: New Multiplayer Features, Riley the dog
What's not so great: Tired Campaign
COD isn't my first choice for FPS gaming, but I still enjoy the franchise and the online experience.
The multiplayer sticks mostly to the COD formula, which is a good thing IMO. The maps, however, seem very repetitive (three of the maps are practically identical). The one aspect that I enjoy most is the new Squads. I find myself in this playlist more than the open multiplayer. It's a much better environment - people are friendlier, fewer trolls and bad kids. It's also easier playing vs bots, which gives us average players a chance to enjoy things like killstreaks. I wish Infinity Ward would've included lobby voting for gametypes/maps, especially since there are no sub-playlists to choose from under Wargames. I'm not sure why they didn't make it work the same as open multiplayer.
As for the campaign, it was a yawner. Nothing really new here. The world catastrophe angle is actually getting a little boring at this point. I'm reminded of a bad, big-budget movie with nothing but car chases and explosions. It's a little tiresome at this point. I do enjoy Riley. He adds a new element that is enjoyable and a nice break from the norm. But in the end, I really didn't feel a sense of satisfaction beating this game and I promptly went back to multiplayer.
If you're a COD fan, you will enjoy this game but probably not as much as past releases (Black Ops II).

Instant Ink Delivery?

I read that this printer has an instant ink delivery plan for when your ink runs out. Is having a plan with this printer required or can you use it without a plan?
It's not required. I did not subscribe to instant ink.
