One of those things you hope you never need. But when you purchase an expensive gaming monitor, it gives me a bit of reassurance.

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.

If my Nikon D610 DSLR camera that I purchased Feb of 2015 at Best Buy malfunctions, is Best Buy authorized to repair it in house?
Best Buy cannot repair DSLR Cameras in house. At the least they would send it to their service center. But most likely if you need warranty service you should go direct through Nikon

Does it crash when it can not handle a lot of programs for music production ?
Music production is typically a lot less demanding on a computer than high end games are. and this machine can handle high end games.
processing for music is going to be more dependent on RAM and process or speed. and this has more ram than your music program would most likely utilize
