This machine is impressive. It is very well made - with a very pleasing exterior, and a very clean and well laid out interior. It provides more features at this price point than you can find elsewhere. For example - it gives two USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports, and a USB C port on the front! The engineering is well thought out. For example, the memory is two paired 4GB sticks, to optimize throughput. The machine is snappy and does the jobs it was designed for very well. One thing to take note of is that the machine is not designed for high end gaming, and really can't be upgraded to do so - it has a 180W interior power supply and a proprietary motherboard. But it does all the tasks characteristic of a home pc very well, and somewhat beyond. I am doing photo editing using Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop Elements, and they work very well. I have paired the PC with a 28" Samsung 4K monitor, and the images are stunning. For the price, you won't find a better machine anywhere.

I would recommend this to a friend!

When this hits the end of the tape (play or ff/rw), does it continue to put tension on the tape or do the motors stop?

Top 250 Contributor
Best Answer

When in Play mode, the motors do automatically stop at the end of the tape. However, when in FF or RW modes the motors do NOT stop - and will continue to put tension on the tape.

Yes. They simply plug into the audio jack on the seat. Because they have an L-shaped plug, they are easier to deal with for those seats where the audio jack is pressed against your side.
