Great basic Cable
on July 14, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an inexpensive, basic, long USB cable. I have had no issues with it as far as fit or performance. The cable itself is stiff, however, it is thin and makes it easy to tuck away.

Perfect Travel Shaver
on July 31, 2017
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the perfect combination of electric razor and traditional shave. I am always on the road and I have discovered that electric razors take up a lot of space. Traditional shavers take up a lot of space with all of the saving cream and things that go along with it. This one blade replaces all of that and fits nicely in a space just a little bigger than a traditional razor and handle. The shave itself is very comfortable and does not pull the hair. The only negative to this razor is that it will not get quite as smooth as a regular blade. Overall though this is, seriously, the perfect travel razor.

Lightweight and good quality sound.
on June 1, 2017
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
My problem with Bluetooth devices is that they are usually very uncomfortable after wearing them for a while or difficulty hearing what's going on around you. This device solves all of those problems. It is very lightweight and over the ear, so it is very comfortable. Being that it is over ear, I am able to hear what is going on around me and the person I'm having a conversation with.
My only complaint is the noise rejection. It does tend to pick up background noise and amplify them.

Beautiful Centerpiece to Multimedia Workflow
on April 15, 2017
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Surface Book with performance base is all I could ask for as a central workspace for graphic and multimedia design. I have been using this for just about a month with the Surface Dock. When I'm mobile, it is light and compact enough to take with me wherever I go. The battery life is incredible for a laptop with higher end components. I get about 12 hours if I am just doing email, video streaming, or basic browsing. If I am doing high end Photoshop work I get about 7 hours with the base and about 4 hours with just the tablet. I also love the multiple ways I can use the device.
The new magnet attachment for the pen is a vast improvement over the Surface Pro series Pen Loop.
I would highly recommend this device for someone looking for a portable powerhouse with good battery life.

For the Smallest Office EVER!
on May 15, 2016
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
I find this to be a great tool for anyone who travels. It has two very strong features. The first one is that it is compatible with all of the major operating systems. Windows, Android, and Apple. The second major feature is that it has the ability to connect to 2 devices. The device switching is as simple as pressing a button on the keyboard.
The only drawback to this keyboard is the size of the keys. Even though this is designed to be small the keys are just a little on the small size and take a little getting used to.
The thing I love most about this keyboard is that when paired with a bluetooth mouse I can connect them both to my phone and use them on the plane to have the smallest office ever. It is so much more simple on a short flight or trip to pull those items out rather than pulling out the laptop.

Perfect on the Go Controller
on April 23, 2016
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
I travel constantly for my job. There is nothing more frustrating than having to carry, not only a controller, but all the cables that go with it. The Stratus XL for Android and Windows is the perfect controller to combat that. It is small enough to slide into a pocket in a backpack and has nothing else besides the controller. It connects flawlessly to either an android device or a windows 10 device. If you connect it to windows you do need to make sure you download SteelSeries engine 3. Once connected it feels like a premium controller in your hand and has little to no lag, depending on the game. I would definitely recommend this for mobile players or people who like the Android gaming platform.

I purchased this to expand my Disney movies collection. The quality of materials was standard. It did, however, come with two discs blue ray and DVD. This is a nice touch and makes the movie very flexible from a viewing perspective.

Greatly Improved Keyboard!
on March 19, 2016
Posted by: DanB
from Yakima
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have been using the MS Surface Pro since the first version. I have always loved the snap on keyboard. This new keyboard from Microsoft is superior in many ways to the original Surface and Surface Pro keyboards. The actual buttons are slightly larger and spread a litter further apart. This allows for a premium typing experience. I find that it rates better than even some laptops I have worked with. The addition of a fingerprint reader is a great new feature. Being able to take advantage of Windows Hello is very cool. Its a small pleasure but when I touch my Keyboard and my Surface gives me a personal hello, it makes my day.

What is the battery life?
I want to use this for extended periods of time. How long will the battery go between charges? I don't want to have to have it plugged in while I work. That defeats the purpose of a wireless keyboard.
I don't have an exact answer, but I purchased it over a month ago, it came charged, and with a few days worth of use and storage in my backpack, it still has a charge. I haven't had to plug it in yet. When you fold it up to put it away it automatically shuts off which really conserves battery time.

is this product compatible with my surface 2?
Yes it is. As a Surface user I know there are times when you want to detach the keyboard and still have a keyboard...this is a perfect solution.

My new computer has Windows 10 which I find very frustrating and hard to operate. Can I unistall 10 and re-install Windows 7 or 8?
That depends on several things:
1. If you bought the computer new with Windows 10, then you would need to find and purchase a Windows 7 or 8 license. They are hard to find and Microsoft is already updating those two to automatically receive Windows 10. If you go this route you would also need to make sure that you got all of the appropriate drivers for whichever version of Windows you move back to. This might cause you to lose some functionality.
2. If you upgraded to Windows 10 from 7 or 8, if it is within 30 days you can roll back to your previous version of Windows through the settings menu, then Update and Security, and then Recovery.
3. If you upgraded to Windows 10 from 7 or 8 but it has been longer than 30 days then you would need to see solution 1.
I hope this helps.

Can windows 10 software be downloaded into a for older windows Vista Desktop
Can Windows 10 be installed into an older HP Windows Visita Home Desktop Computer?
More than likely not. You would have to follow the upgrade path to at least Windows 7 or Windows 8 and then into Win 10.

sofeware to upgrade windows 10
I have widows 10 on my computer, and my drivers need to be upgraded
You will need to visit your computer manufacturer's website to find the specific drivers you are looking for. If you have upgraded to Win 10 from Win 7 or Win 8 this may be a difficult task for you. Many computer manufacturers are not releasing Win 10 drivers for computers that started on Win 7. You may want to try to do a clean install of Win 10, rather than individually upgrading components. You can do a Google search of Win 10 clean install for step by step instructions on how to do that.

Microsoft Office 365
I purchased a computer last March and I've been getting emails telling me I need to renew Microsoft office 365 or I won't be able to use the applications if I don't renew. I thought once you have the program on your computer its there until its personally removed. I can understand I would have to renew Webroot antivirus but renewing Microsott sounds like wasted money. Do I really need to renew it?
Yes you really do need to renew it. Microsoft Office 365 is their subscription based service. You can purchase different versions of Office that allow you to keep the software once purchased. The difference is with the one time purchase you are locked into that version until you purchase the next version. With the subscription model you will always have the latest version of Office. Which one you choose will depend on how often you use Office and how often you want to upgrade to the latest version.
