Much Better Quality Than Off-Brand

Well, what can I say about ink cartridges? I bought these with a set of Epson XL color cartridges. Like the colors, these work fine in both of our Epson Workforce multi-function devices, and they arrived well-packaged. I stay away from refurbs or off-brands. Kinda pricey, but that's how they make their money.

It Just Works

I'm not one of those who measures the read/write performance of SDHC cards; if it works with my device, and there's no noticeable lag, then I consider it a keeper. Such is the case with this SDHC card from SanDisk - I plugged it into my Fujifilm XQ1, and it works perfectly, and the write speed, as best as I can tell, is only limited by the camera's hardware. The fact that BB had it on sale doesn't hurt, either!

Perfect Ooma Companion

Verified Purchase:Yes
Switching away from the phone company was a great money-saver, and I couldn't be happier. Since we have an AT&T cordless phone system in our home, we were able to put an extension in every room, but we still needed a way to hook in our multifunction printers to enable fax capability. The Linx was very easy to install and set up, and now both of our printers are connected the Ooma system. They just work!

Good But Not For Me
on November 11, 2016
Posted by: DMAtx
from Dallas, TX
Verified Purchase:Yes
I really wanted to like this lens - I really did. I purchased it "Open Box - Excellent", and the savings was substantial. The two previous "Open Box" Sony E-mount lenses I've bought from BB arrived in amazing, like-new condition - this one, not so much. The OEM Sony box was quite beat-up, and I was fearful about the lens' condition; thankfully, the lens itself was in "Very Good", but not "Excellent" condition. I say that because the lens hood was missing from the package. Normally, I would've chalked it up to a bit of lax QC and purchased the appropriate Sony hood from an online source like eBay; in this case, however, that wasn't doable. This particular Sony lens hood retails for around a hundred bucks, and even used ones sell for sixty-five to seventy-five bucks. Yikes!
Aside from that, the image quality was pretty good, I must say. Sharpness was about what I expected, soft at both extreme ends, but manageable by stopping down and additional tweaking in post. The other major downer for me was the weight. My understanding is the larger SEL18200 is even heavier, but this one still weighed down my NEX-7 to the point that I feared I wouldn't want to lug it around on our cruise next summer, which is why I purchased this lens in the first place.
In the end, I think the combination of the missing hood and the weight made me decide to return this lens, but I believe that the SEL18200LE would be a good fit for the right person and the right application.

The smudge- and fade-resistant DURABrite Ultra ink in these Epson 126 T126120-BCS ink cartridges ensures that your pages will feature clear, bold text and vibrant colors. The high-yield design lets you print more between cartridge changes.

Always Genuine Epson

I tried aftermarket ink once, and it was a disaster. Leaking cartridges, clogged nozzles, and terrible print quality. Never again. Now that we have two Epson multi-function inkjets, I only buy the real thing. They work great, and they're not too pricey.

The Next Step For Windows
on July 1, 2016
Posted by: DMAtx
from Dallas, TX
Verified Purchase:Yes
I tend to sum up Windows 10 as the operating system update that Windows 8/8.1 was supposed to be. Windows 10 is the best of its immediate predecessors: 8's new features combined with the more familiar territory of 7. It'll be a less steep learning curve than Windows 8, too, I believe. It seems to run fine on older equipment if drivers are available, and it zips right along on my newer homebuilt AMD FX-8370-based box.
A caution, though - pay attention during setup; Microsoft wants a LOT of your information - location, browsing history, etc., but that seems to be the trend with a lot of tech companies nowadays. My personal preference is to turn most of that stuff off.

Finally, The Whole Series on Blu-ray

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this set as a Daily Deal from BB, and I am so glad I got it! The discs are neatly packaged as season sets inside the roughly cubical designer box. I've only sampled season 1 so far, but the picture quality is amazing while preserving the intended grittiness of this terrific remake. If you want Avatar's lush eye-popping visuals and stunning picture quality, buy that movie - this is Battlestar Galactica.

Finally, Another Great Chapter

from Dallas, TX
Verified Purchase:Yes
As a young man, I loved the original Star Wars trilogy, and I was so hopeful that Lucas' newer installments would revive that feeling I had while repeatedly watching the older films. Sadly, they didn't - at least not for me. I won't pretend to comprehend what Mr. Lucas was thinking when he created Episodes I - III, but I only really enjoyed the third installment of his "newer" films.
Anyway, when I saw The Force Awakens, i did feel that stirring - the teenage version of me sat up and said, "That's it! That's what I was waiting for!"
The blu-ray's picture and sound are, as we would expect, amazing. Crank this puppy up when you get home - if you don't have a home theater system, buy one.
To close this review on an even cornier note: "Chewie, we ARE home!"

Better Than I Thought It Would Be

Overall, a good movie, I'd say. I'm always a little surprised at how good an actor Hayden Christensen is, as I always have to get past his wooden Star Wars performances - that was the fault of the writing, I believe.
The video and audio on the blu-ray is very good.

If I have it on one motherboard and remove it and put it on another motherboard, is it a problem.How do you remove it and then reinstall it.
If you're talking about this store-bought full version, then you simply reinstall the operating system from the USB drive; it may be necessary to confirm to Microsoft (via automated phone system, usually) that you only have it installed on one computer. I've moved my Windows 7 Ultimate to several different machine over the years, and I usually only have to do the phone thing to activate. Note that you *could* try to simply replace the MB, then fire up the computer and let Windows try to adjust to the new hardware; at best, it'll figure everything out on its own with only a prompt for a missing driver - at worst, back up your files (which is a good idea before doing any of this) and reinstall the OS from scratch.

Just in case you mean the free upgrade to Windows 10 that Microsoft is currently offering, it is tied to the motherboard, and you likely wouldn't be able to change it out without paying for another Windows license.

Is there an upgrade from windows 10 to windows 10 pro like there is for windows 8.1?

No, they are different versions; Windows 8.1 was an *update* (as opposed to an upgrade) to 8, like SP1 was an update to Windows 7, but there various versions of 8 as well - there's 8 and 8 Pro, which updated to 8.1 and 8.1 Pro.

Windows 10 is the same way. Windows 10 is like Windows 7 Home and Windows 10 Pro is like Windows 7 Professional. The free upgrade that Microsoft is offering works along these same lines - if you currently have Windows XP Home, Windows 7 Home, or Windows 8, you could upgrade to Windows 10 for free (on that machine only); likewise, if you currently have Windows XP Professional, Windows 7 Professional, or Windows 8 Pro ( 8.1Pro), you could upgrade to Windows 10 Pro for free (on that machine only).

If you have Windows 10, and you want Windows 10 Pro, you'd have to pay to upgrade.

If you have windows 10 can you download windows pro 10

Windows 10 Pro is actually a different version, much like Windows 7 Home was different from Windows 7 Professional. You can do an in-place upgrade, I think, but it's not free.
