I got this for a laptop that was several years old. Prior to the upgrade it took s few minutes to boot up and now?
25.54655 seconds to boot up! ;-) Everything is faster now, including just smurfing the interwebs. I have given the computer to someone that needed a "new" one and could not afford to buy one right now. This is just a great way of helping out someone. It allows them to Skype with their family and friends during this Panic-Pandemic! No joking. I really does help them out by allowing them to see their loved ones.
So if you've got an older laptop that could use a boost and know someone that could also use a boost, upgrade that computer and donate it to a friend! Pay it forward my friends!
Sweeeeeeeeeeeet? Yup, it sure is. And very highly recommended!

The Music. It's about what it was like for America when the so-called age of innocence was reaching twilight. The Music was fantastic and this film catches a glimpse of what that was like. What passes for music today is cRap. There. I said it because it needs saying.
Not everything about the 60s was great but the early Music of the times including the Beach Boys, the Beatles, and so many of the great "Girl Groups" like the Ronettes made music that gave meaning to those years. T
his film captures that time. It is worth the price of admission, whether or not you were there.

It looks are period piece perfect. It's reproduction of music is excellent!
I have paired it (fittingly) with a Crosley Keepsake Deluxe for vinyl listening and it does a fine job! As for digital music?
Amazon Music Unlimited plays superbly as do a whole bunch of other sources. At this very moment I am enjoying Harry Belafonte's joyous singing of "Dance Senora". It sounds wonderful!
This was a purchase I made for me. It's not always about me but when it is I get what I want. I think some of you may want this speaker too.

A love story that like so many before it, is at once predictable and altogether engaging. The two leads are wonderful and the supporting actors and actresses are more than believable in their respective roles.
I have seen this many times on TV and since I no longer watch "TV" (just movies!), I bought this without hesitation.
Highly recommended? Yuppers!

This is an excellent film with fine performances all around. The Blu Ray edition is more than sufficient. I say this having purchased a few 4K versions of older films only to find that the results do NOT justify the added expense of 4K.
I only purchase films I either know I will watch multiple times or at the least hope to. Having already seen this film a few times I knew it was the latter of those two possibilities.

This Western is one of the top ten of all time and Val Kilmer's performance is praise worthy beyond the silly Oscars. The Blu Ray is more than up to the film and even were it to come out in a 4K version I would not be interested in trading "up".
Very highly recommended.

Does my Total Tech cover me returning this TV or not? I just reset it to wipe out my streaming services. I give up. Hisense has not done squat for me. I am still a fan of Best Buy, just not this TV.

My TV has a horrid "mosaic" affect on deep blacks that cannot be adjusted away. Also, this new TV "communicates" with my Denon AVR and turns on the AVR and starts turning on media players like Blu Ray and UHD Disc players. I hate this!!! HELP!!!!!

 Insignia™ - 33-Lb. Portable Ice Maker
Insignia™ - 33-Lb. Portable Ice Maker
Only at Best BuyChill drinks at your next party with this Insignia portable ice maker. The compact design fits easily on the counter, while an included scoop and basket make it easy to fill drinks and empty leftover ice. With a freezing time of seven to 13 minutes, depending on cube size, this Insignia portable ice maker ensures you're never out of ice.
 

Is this portable Ice Maker easy to clean? We've had issues with a similar product in the past that made it not worth the hassle.

I have no clue if there is an official procedure but...When I am done for the day making my ice, I simply turn it off, unplug it and face the drain plug toward the sink, remove the cap and let it drain. I then dry out the easily reached areas and let it sit with the lid open for a couple of hours. That's it. It seems to work for me and I use mine a LOT.

Can be left in the back yard (patio) is it weather ( sun , rain , dust )resistant.

Ummmmm...I would NOT leave anything like an electric fan to be soaked by rain. Otherwise, my son has used ours outside while washing his truck. And no, he does not get the fan wet too, LOL! It is an electric device. Electricity and water do not mix. It is however, an excellent fan!

Since I returned this I've yet to see Samsung address my concerns about it. It kept locking up requiring a hard-boot? Why? The speakers were horrid? Why? And is the battery replaceable or not? Still looking for a new laptop. Gave my son an iPad Air.

Update: I NEVER heard back from Samsung so I no longer own this particular laptop.

Vacuuming that fits seamlessly into your life. The i7+ learns your home and navigates to where the messes are, right when they happen—so you can effortlessly keep your floors clean. Just say to Google Assistant or Alexa voice assistant, “Tell Roomba to clean under the kitchen table” and consider it done. After each cleaning, the i7+ empties itself into Dirt Disposal bags that hold up to 60 days of debris so you can forget about vacuuming for months. Personalized cleaning recommendations and seasonal suggestions help keep floors clean year-round, and 10x the Power-Lifting suction* paired with self-emptying convenience help make life a whole lot easier.
 

Do you have to use Google Assistant or Alexa to operate this? Or is the Roomba app sufficient? Thanks

The Roomba App is more than sufficient. I really don't want or need (though others might!) Alexa or Hey Google to do this for me so...The Roomba Application is all you need to get this Roomba working! I can even tell both my Roombas (different models, one of which is about two or three years old now) to start cleaning remotely from my office. I simply select the Roomba app on my iPhone and tell the Roomba to start cleaning. It does so every time without fail and it does it via my cell (there is NO WiFi at my work) to my home. Roombas are my favorite robot vacuums!

Can you move the Roomba to another level in your home? Will it map out a second floor and keep multiple maps?

It should map out the new area and you can then name it 2nd Floor or whatever you choose. You would have to take the unit and physically place it there. It keeps multiple maps or at least for me it has. I suppose when charging time comes you will have to take it back downstairs or have moved the base to the second floor. I cannot recommend this Roomba enough. It has made life a little bit nicer for us! All the best!

Does this vacuum empty itself and go to its own charging system when it’s done

Nope. It's kinda like a baby in that you have to change the poopy diapers. It takes approximately 33.3232949349434 seconds for me to do this so I bet you'll be just fine!

Does this vacuum work on a 5 GHz WiFi

No it does not. If you have a Mesh System WiFi you will have to go into the router and separate the two frequencies in order for your vacuum to see the 2.4 frequency and then all will be groovy! At least that's how we did it on mine and my daughters and they work just fine. I believe one of the factors behind this using the 2.4 may be that range/distance/strength of transmission is greater on the lower frequency.
