What can I say about Logitech? Awesome. Crisp. Loud. Rock-on! After setting them up for a client, we blasted out music and disturbed the neighbors. The music quality was professional and solid. Well worth the money. Would buy again. A++

After years of using Windows products, I can attest that Windows 10 has improved since its first release. Engineers are slowly working out the kinks, although it will never be able to touch the likes of Windows 7. But, it's the times, and you must move on. Welcome, Windows 10.

Dell - S2319NX 23" IPS LED FHD Monitor (HDMI, VGA) - Black/Silver

Optimize your viewing experience on this 23-inch Dell LCD monitor. Its Full HD IPS screen lets you see content from almost any angle. Easily connect a laptop or a PC to the VGA and HDMI ports on this Dell LCD monitor.

Hello my name is Martin if you could respond to this it would be great well My s2319nx dell monitor is turning on it’s ok but half of the screen is like a fade of black into the normal color it really sucks usually I would unplug it and it would go back

Martin;

I would say in your case that the Monitor is defective. Fading is a common issue when the unit is going bad. You did try to reset it by restarting the monitor, and then you got the same result. It's time for a new monitor.

NETGEAR - AC1750 Dual-Band Wi-Fi 5 Router - Black

The NETGEAR AC1750 Smart WiFi 5 Router with external antennas delivers extremely fast WiFi. With AC1750 WiFi, Gigabit Ethernet speeds, and high-powered external antennas, this router offers ultimate performance in wireless coverage for large homes with 12 or more wireless devices. It gets 3x faster access than similar 802.11n.

I need dsl thru att is this compatible.

Dear Tata;

If you are looking to add this wireless router to an existing DSL hook up, it will work fine. But if you are saying this would be the DSL line hook up, it does not provide the abilities to handle a DSL connection.

Can this printer scan a page from a book?

Dear Bill;

Yes, there is enough room to scan an image from a book. Brother offers software to do scanning, whether through a wireless or wired setup. Should not be an issue.

Brother - MFC-L2710DW Wireless Black-and-White All-in-One Refresh Subscription Eligible Laser Printer - Black

Does this printer accept replacement toner from third party or do you have to use Brothers toner?

Best Answer

Dear Elle;

Based on all the machines I have set up, I don't see a problem with using replacement toner on a Brother laser. My suggestion is to have one good toner around and one every-day toner around. Not all printouts are for professional purposes. This will help in case one fails.

All the best,

Epson - WorkForce WF-100 Mobile Wireless Printer - Black

The lightweight, wireless mobile printer for professionals on the go. Easily print documents and photos from Apple® iPad® and iPhone®, tablets, smartphones and laptops with this Epson WorkForce WF-100 printer.

On average, how much would it cost to replace ink cartridges?

Dear Ron;

The average is in the $20 dollar range. Because the cartridges only print up to 300 pages, you will be replacing them, periodically. But for the comfort and ease of being somewhere else and you can guarantee a printout, that's worth it. Great machine. A++

Hope that helps,

Epson - WorkForce WF-100 Mobile Wireless Printer - Black

It stopped working and wont turn on or charge! I need a new Lithium-ion battery I think!

Dear Angie;

Yes, the built-in Lithiu-ion battery needs replacement. Get a hold of Epson support and see how you can get one. Another avenue would be to look at eBay or Amazon for this batter.

what is the weight of this printer? Thank you,

Dear Lake;

The weight of this machine is 3 to 4 lbs. It's light as a feather, a little slow in printing the page, but, hey, you are printing in a car, at the hotel, on the job site. It's a real winner. Hope that helps.

I've never bought refurbished before. Do you get the full warranty? Can you buy an extended service plan from Best Buy?

Dear ServiceNelly;

Yes, pick up the extended warranty. It will give you some piece of mind (although many experts would say not to buy extended insurance). The regular warranty does carry on with the product. Refurbished machines always make people nervous, but having it looked over by experts is not a bad thing. Worth a try.
