I always buy this with computers. I spend a lot of money on a computer and computers can quit working. NOT the fault of Best Buy. Things happen.
Geek squad service plan isn't always something I need to use. But when I have used it the plan has saved me a lot of money on repairs. Best Buy does not manufacture their products and without this plan you need to rely on the good graces of the manufacturer's warranty service

This is not a photo quality printer but works exceptional for all other home printing purposes. I really like large ink tanks that give a large number of prints. Ink and toner more often than not will cost you more for you than you paid for your printer. Having 2 teenage girls in the house that like to print, this is a great savings over my previous ink jet. Cost per ounce of ink is significantly lower. Easy to hook up to my home network and print wireless

Stream your favorite TV series and movies with this 77-inch LG OLED television.

This LG OLED television is Wi-Fi-enabled and integrates smart features so you can watch your favorite online videos and the recent blockbusters.

does this come with a built in amp or reciver like the other logitech computer speakers?, (z623)
The amplifier is part of the subwoofer. You computer plugs into the sub and the speakers come out of the sub

Looking for a speaker system to be hooked up to a TV to be used in the Dining Room at a Nursing Home. Don't need anything over the top. Would this system work well for that?
I would suggest a Sonos system for the nursing home. it can be controlled from a phone.

Can these only be hooked up to an IPhone via Bluetooth?
The system does not have blue tooth. I know it says iPod supported but I see nothing in the documentation. You would probably have to use a cable.

I would not recommend it for that use. It is intended for computer gaming where the speakers are in close proximity. You would not get much performance over 5 feet away

does this set really not include any of the speakers? under the description it says 0.
The system is only speakers. It comes with one sub that connects to your computer and it in turn powers the 5 speakers.

Can this system be connected to a gaming computer
This speaker system is designed for gaming computers.
Best option is if you have 6 channel direct (3 x 3.5 mm) on your computer.
Though for some reason BB has them listed as home theater.
My new gaming computer came with 6 channel audio and I did a lot of searching for speaker systems and this is pretty much the only one I found designed for computer gaming.
It sounds amazing. (not full on AVR home theater amazing). The first game I tested it on was an FPS and I could hear people walking behind me.

Can I hook these speakers up to my Denon AVR- S740H.
They are designed for the system as a package. You Denon AVR may be too powerful for the speakers at higher levels. 4 ohms.

Is this system easy to hook up to a TV, is there a web-site I could go to see how before I purchase
Not designed to hook up to a TV. Designed for computers.
However, you can hook it up to Digital Coax, Digital Optical, RCA (which most new TV's will not have), or 3.5 mm headphone jack.
There are are only 5 wires and connector cables. Instructions printed in the manual are all you should need.
