Great monitor - even better price

We got this as a second monitor for working on multiple screens. I can't say anything negative - good resolution, good color, appreciate the multiple options for cabling, and great price!

Don't ignore your filter!

from Annapolis, MD
Verified Purchase:Yes
It seemed my Keurig was getting noisier and noisier - especially between the time you push the button to brew and the coffee starts pouring. I was afraid it was dying. Someone suggested maybe the noise was the water having a hard time getting through the filter. I had never changed it. I'm so glad it was suggested! It is much quieter now - and I feel like my coffee water is clean again!

These are all medium roasts so don't expect radical variety. Tully's Hawaiian blend and Fair Trade certified Nantucket blend are my favorites in this pack.

Very reliable backup power

Verified Purchase:Yes
I don't think I would trust another brand. However, be advised that, although until the battery wears out, the unit is very reliable, the battery seems to go dead and need replacement with little warning.

Taxes in about an hour!

I have been using Turbo Tax for many years. A little bit of a hiccup last year when Intuit tried to force those of us who are in business for ourselves to upgrade to "Home & Business" instead of "Deluxe" by making Schedule K unavailable in "Deluxe". But there was such an outcry, they relented and went back to the way it was, so "Deluxe" worked great again this year!

Logitech Wireless Mouse Marathon M705 lets you power on... and on. It uses less power than comparable wireless mice from other companies, so you'll go up to three full years between battery changes.¹ And it uses a tiny wireless receiver that stays plugged in to your computer, so your mouse is ready to go-whenever, wherever, and for as long as it takes. Plus, hyper-fast scrolling means you'll fly through long documents to find what you need in a flash. Advanced Optical Tracking means you'll get smooth, responsive cursor control. And the sculpted, right-hand shape means you'll be as comfortable finishing up as you were getting started.

Generally, Donut Shop K-cups are fine, and the coffee is fine,too. But if it shouldn't be advertised as "Peppermint Bark" coffee, since I can barely catch the slightest hint of peppermint.

There seems to be little difference between makers of K-cups as regards either the K-cup or the coffee inside, so I tend to buy what's on sale. This was a great price, compared to other places.

Great little tablet for entry-level

I bought my wife a new version iPad, so I got to finally have one of my own - the old version. I had been using a Kindle. There is a lot I prefer in the iPad over the Kindle, but I still can't figure out why Apple hasn't come up with Gesture typing (or Swype typing) yet! Anytime I need to do note-taking, I go back to the Kindle. Apple needs that feature!

deluxe turbo 2015 have a way of doing georgia state tax too ?

i want to order the deluxe turbo tax but need to know if it has a way of doing the georgia state tax too
Deluxe will do state taxes for an additional fee.
Check with your state government for filing online. In Maryland, the government hosts their own online filing for free.

Is Best Buy an authorized Logitech dealer?

I would assume so - they carry a wide selectionof Logitech products, not just mice.

Keep your Apple iPhone SE, 5s or 5 protected while you work out with this Belkin EaseFit Plus armband, which features lightweight neoprene material that resists moisture damage for durability. The adjustable strap provides a secure fit.
 

Is this iPhone 5 armband compatible with iPod touch 5th generation?

Would the Belkin - EaseFit Plus Armband for Apple® iPhone® 5 - Black work with an iPod touch 5th generation?
It should accommodate anything smaller than an iPhone 5, but probably not bigger. Not sure how big the 5th gen iPod touch is.

Nikon D3200 DSLR Camera with 18-55mm VR II and 55-200mm VR II Lenses: Give yourself creative freedom with this camera, which comes with 2 lenses to offer flexibility while shooting in the field or in the studio. The 24.2-megapixel CMOS image sensor delivers sharp images.Memory card sold separately.
 

How sharp is the picture quality?

Is this camera good with close up shots?
MY experience so far has been very good. However, my best closeups have been done through use of the telephoto lens to zoom in, versus standing close to the subject. It's too easy to burn out the subject with the flash when you're too close.

Bose® SoundTrue™ on-ear headphones are designed with you in mind. With fresh designs to fit your style, they stay comfortable no matter how long your playlist is, but are built to survive your busy life. Best of all, they're engineered to make all your music sound better.
 

Have these provenhelpful for those hard of hearing re clarity of voices?

Are these proven helpful for one who suffers hearing loss and require not so much increased volume but clarity of voice dialogue?
I'm not familiar with this precise model of Bose headphones, but I usually recommend "noise canceling" headphones for people hard of hearing, because they eliminate/reduce the background noise outside the headphones, making it easier to hear what the headphones are receiving more clearly.

Are these only compatible with Apple? Need to use for Galaxy tablet

these should work with any tablet with a 3.5mm socket for the plug. For example, my Kindle and my iPhone have the same socket and I use the same headphones with both.
