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!

The key to superior entertainment, the Tab P12 allows you to substitute deadlines and obligations for some much-deserved downtime. Delve into the vibrant visuals of 3K streaming with ambient color, game like a boss on 8GB RAM with fast-paced, uninterrupted Wi-Fi 6 connection, or finish that page-turner in immersive reader mode featuring intrinsic background music.
Can you connect an external ssd drive to the usb-c port on the tablet, and watch videos stored on the ssd?

Panasonic Cordless Phone KX-TGD863A with digital answering system features Link2Cell so you can make or receive mobile calls through handset units for call clarity even in cell dead zones. The KX-TGD863A also includes Bilingual Talking Caller ID and smart call block features that make it easier than ever to block and avoid nuisance callers.
Sorry, but must ask this again as it was not addressed by a previous reply. Other than the number of handsets, are there any significant feature differences between KX-TGD862 and KX-TGD863? If so, can I get a KX-TGD863 with only 2 handsets?
The only difference between them is the color scheme. If you prefer the color scheme of the KX-TGD863, I believe you have no choice but to accept it with 3 handsets. Having a spare could be a good thing.

Kyvol - HD5 1.2 Gal. Humidifier with Adjustable Night Light - Dark Gray
Rid your home of uncomfortably dry air with this Kyvol HD5 ultrasonic humidifier, which offers 360 degree and detachable spray nozzle which helps improve the dry air in a super quiet way. With Unique and Innovative MegaMist Technology, the mist volume can be increased to 600ml/h and the mist height can reach 40 inches instantly, which gives the droplets enough time to evaporate in the air, protecting your desk or carpet from getting wet.
I bought this product, filled it up and works great. Now that the water needs to be refilled, I’m have issues twisting the cap off, it’s completely stuck and I’m not sure how to refill it without removing the cap. What do I need to do?
It sounds like you either put the cap on too tight, or cross threaded it when you put it on. I think you will have to use brute force turning the cap counterclockwise. After filling the tank, take care putting the cap back on - making certain
it threads properly when you tighten it clockwise, but not too tight.
