This is my favorite paper for use with my laser printer.
The paper is of exceptional quality and is excellent for
both black-white prints and color prints. The paper is
both robust and long lasting.

These Panasonic rechargeable NiM-H batteries are probably
the best you can buy, and an excellent value. They are high
capacity and hold their charge exceptionally well. And if
you watch for deals, they go on sale a few times a year!

I have had this radio for about 5.5 years now, and I have
found it to be solid and reliable. I live in a region that has
a number of tornado alerts each year, as well as other
weather related alerts. This radio does a very good job
of providing warnings, and monitoring the situations as
they are in progress. I am impressed by how long the
battery holds its charge (when not in use). I top it up
about every 6 months. This is a very good choice as
an emergency weather alert radio.

This is a good and compact emergency radio. It has
a large rechargeable battery (2600 mAh). It picks up
all the NOAA weather stations in your area. It can
monitor those stations and issue a loud alert when
these stations warn of approaching dangerous weather.
It can also receive AM and FM radio stations in your area.
The battery can be charged 3 ways: via USB, via a
hand crank, or via a small solar panel. It is a good value.

Compact design with up to 23-mile range. With weather alerts, be prepared for storms and emergencies with built-in NOAA radio receiver. Voice-activated (VOX) transmission frees hands for other tasks. Five selectable tones will distinguish between different parties for incoming calls. A total of 2662 channel combinations are available when the 22 channels are combined with the 121 privacy codes (38 CTCSS/83 DCS). These combinations prevent interference from other radios.

This is a pair of good, budget FRS radios.
I have used them up to a 1/4 mile in a
residential neighborhood, with some trees.
They sound very good and clear in that setting -
absolutely no static!
I have tested them inside a car, and they will
permit car to car communications for distances
up to at least a 1/4 mile.
These radios are compact and easily fit most hands.
They are easy to use, and work right out of the box.
My only criticism is that the rechargeable Ni-MH batteries
provided have a small capacity of only 650 mAh. On the
plus side, they will take less time to recharge using the
provided cradle than higher capacity Ni-MH rechargeable
AA batteries.
I got mine on sale, and consider them a good buy.

New gamer here! Do I need any type of hard drives to hold more game, etc? And if so what is recommended?

You should plan on getting a usb external hard drive, 4TB or greater. Western Digital and Seagate have good units at reasonable prices. If you will be subscribing to Xbox's subscription services, and taking advantage of the many deals on games at Best Buy and elsewhere, you will fill up the 1TB in the console very quickly. I've only had my unit for 4 days, and it is already more than half full!

How is the am fm quality pickup. I live in the country.

I live in a small town. I pick up local fm stations, and fm stations within 30 miles with outstanding clarity. The tuner locks on, and there is zero drift (none observed over a 5 hour period, and it remains tuned precisely from day to day). I can't speak to am stations.

Often your local Goodwill store, and other charity shops, can be a place to find used cassette tapes - generally at very attractive prices.

Can you listen to tapes in the stereo?

I have played stereo cassette tapes in this boombox, and can verify that you get true stereo sound out of the boombox from them. The same is true when tuned in to fm stereo stations, and when playing stereo mp3 files from a usb stick. An added note - the mp3 files obtained from copying stereo cassette tapes using this boombox are also true stereo.
