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!

Battle friends and foes with the Sony PlayStation 4 Pro console. Its 1TB capacity lets you store plenty of games without an external hard drive, and the dual-shock controller improves your hands-on gaming experience.

Will new ps4 pro consoles ever be back in stock? I worry that the fall debut of the new ps5 may spell the end of production for the ps4 pro.

Nikon - Monarch 7 10x30 Binoculars - Black
Scope out landscapes, wildlife and other subjects with these Nikon MONARCH compact binoculars. The dielectric high-reflective multilayer prism coatings on the lenses provide high color accuracy and sharp contrast, while the compact design makes carrying and storing simple. These Nikon MONARCH compact binoculars have a large field of view, so finding subjects is easy.
 

Do the two separate vision tubes bend? Sorry I do not have a more elegant way to say this. I saw a video where it said to get one that will move.

It is possible to pivot them to adjust to
one's eye separation. This is easy to do.

Is this compatible with the Lenovo 510A-15ICB? I have attached a photo of the specs of the computer. If so, what would it cost to have it installed and how long would it take?

I have this exact same computer - and this memory kit
worked perfectly with it. It even provided the maximum
possible speed permitted with my CPU! Installing it
yourself is relatively easy and painless. Watch a few
videos, and you could do it in as little as 15 minutes.
