 Apple Watch SE (GPS) 40mm Silver Aluminum Case with White Sport Band - Silver
Apple Watch SE (GPS) 40mm Silver Aluminum Case with White Sport Band - Silver
Apple Watch SE has the same larger display size Retina display as Series 6, so you can see more at a glance. Advanced sensors to track all your fitness and workout goals. And powerful features to keep you healthy and safe. The Sleep app lets you set a bedtime routine and track your sleep. And you also get calls, messages, and music right on your wrist. It's a lot of watch for a lot less than you expected.
 
The watch of choice for an 18 year old.

I got my first Desktop in 10 years of laptop use and realized I didn't have a SD Card Reader anymore.
This reader, when plugged into a USB 3 slot is super fast and easy. I take hundreds of pictures at my daughters games and it downloads them all very fast.
There were some more expensive, but I cannot justify them with this readers performance.

One of the most Hyped Games of the year. I was very disappointed. It is a decent game, but the mechanics were poor and the storyline left some to be desired.

I purchased this to use while gaming. I got a LOT of complaints form people on the other end that I was broadcasting static and they could barely hear me. I ended up spending a little bit more and got a different microphone that works much better.

Logitech Surround Sound Speakers Z906-hear every detail, all around you, in theater-quality sound. 500 watts (RMS) of thunderous audio turns any night into opening night. THX Certification gives you quality you can count on, while onboard 5.1 digital decoding immerses you in your favorite movies as you hear every detail of Dolby Digital or DTSTM encoded soundtracks in surround sound-from the roar of the crowd to the footsteps right behind you. You can connect up to six components simultaneously, including your TV, Blu-ray/DVD, player, DVR, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, iPod and stereo. With its easy-to-read display and easy-to-stack design, the control console fits right in with the home-entertainment setup in your living room. And a wireless remote lets you control your listening experience without ever getting off the couch.
 

What is the impedance of the speakers 4, 6, 8 ohms etc., and are they wall mountable?

The sub is 6 ohms and the satellites are 4 ohms.

The satellites all have the standard screw attachment.

I know you can connect different devices to these speakers but how about 2 computers so I can share the surround between 2 of my systems?

I have it hooked up to my gaming computer using the primary Intel HD audio connections and I also have it hook up to my work computer via 3.5 mm to RCA inputs on the sub. I listen to music on it while working and it sounds great. Better from the primary inputs, but still good.

How many watts is the subwoofer?

The subwoofer is 165 watts.

Not enough in my mind for supporting home theater, but I have the sub less than 2 feet from my chair and it is really solid for computer gaming.

Can I use this system with a television?

Provided your TV has the proper out puts you can input it into the system.

Though I do feel it is set up best for a Computer. The input from your TV could use the digital audio inputs or from the TV's headphone jack

there is no HDMI

Does it have a bass knob or settings to adjust bass like other Logitech speakers?

There is a button on the remote to adjust levels.

You have the ability to independently adjust the Center, Sub, rears (both together) and fronts (both together)

I have the sub on the floor next to my chair and I can feel the vibration.

I see it’s out of stock. Do you plan to ever carry again?

They were out of stock when I found out about them. I put them in my saved area and set it up for notification. I received the notice and purchased them immediately. There must have been only one becuase I looked again in a few minutes and it said out of stock

I saw on the logitec website these speakers for 399$. Why are these so cheep here? Are the these brand new or Fixed??

I got them brand new from BB priced at $299. I was also curious as getting brand new or open box. The system was brand spanking new and did not look touched at all.

Would this be compatible with a Dell XPS 8900 Desktop. It has Intel(R) Chipset SATA/PCIe RST Premium Controller. Processor is Intel i7-6700 CPU @3.4 GHz. Could this SSD be plugged in and designated as the boot up device ? Thanks!

You will need to see if your computer has an available PCI Express 3.0 slot available

From what I can see on the specs for this computer it should have one.

However, I would recommend having a Geek Squad member do the work for you.
Installing the card is pretty easy. But the process of switching it to the boot drive is more tricky.

It may be more cost effective to buy a new computer.
