Just the Samsung name says it all

Verified Purchase:Yes
This was a replacement for a client, and (yet again) I was amazed at BestBuy's price on this. The touch power button, slim bezel, and bright, crisp colors are so indicative of Samsung's quality, that I quit looking at the "cheaper" competition.

I was looking for a true silver paste, but this was on the shelf, a good price, and after trying it, it seems to work as well as any, without watching for at least a year. I'd recommend it.

Stable, doesn't take much space, but covers a vent
on January 29, 2016
Posted by: gz2313
from Tulsa, OK
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for a flexible phone stand that would plug into the power outlet, and automatically charge the phone, while staying visible, but I saw this one that uses the vent, and I like more of the features than I don't like. This is very adjustable, and should fit any phone or GPS, and remains stable (ie, doesn't shake much). The only part I don't like is that it covers most of a vent, so that I don't feel much of the air, and when I have the heat on full, it makes the phone pretty warm. But I do like the fact that it's higher than I had planned, so I don't have to take my eyes far from the field of vision, to see what's on my phone (especially maps), and I can still use the cable from the power outlet to charge my phone. Very functional, and cheaper than I planned.

Western Digital is still the best; USB 3.0 is fast

I've used several brands of drives over the years, and although some WD's will fail, they're still the most reliable. The USB 3.0 standards are incredibly fast transfers, and the new cases are rather svelt, for an hdd.

I've recommended HP printers for years, despite occasional failures with certain series, and their brand of inks is reliable, and long-lasting, but I would buy a house brand, with the same expectations.

If a modem works, there's not much to say about it. It's good that it has Wireless-N300. The part I don't care for is that you still have to work with AT&T to configure it, and that takes some time.

What you'd expect from Logitech

from Tulsa, OK
Verified Purchase:Yes
Not much you can say about a webcam, as long as it works. This replaced an older Logitech webcam that kept locking up, and this one simply runs smoothly, and folks I Skype with say it looks good on their end. The only hard part was figuring out which one I wanted, till I got to Bestbuy, and it was the only one they had under $100.

Fast, thoroughbred workhorse
on April 12, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
After years of helping clients with printers, HP continues to stay at the top of the heap with (comparatively) inexpensive, fast printers, with relatively cheap ink. You still certainly get what you pay for, and for about $100 on sale we got this nearly top-of-the-line inkjet all-in-one. I really like the built-in e-Print feature, with more folks wanting to print from their e-devices, and HP makes it pretty easy to use. Overall, I consider the 8xxx series to be the best for combination personal and office inkjets, with fast printing, near-color laser quality, user-friendly interface that doesn't demand your attention, and easy network connectivity. The only caveat is the huge footprint this monster makes, but still compared to other alternatives, it remains my top choice.

Great picture, fast response, not very adjustable

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've always valued LG as one of, if not the best, electronic brands available. This monitor certainly doesn't disappoint. Great colors, video is fast, without ghosting, sharp picture, even with Windows icons 120%, and resolution at 1920x1080. The only part I don't care about is the stand. It looks nice, but when I hit the "Input" button, the monitor wiggles some, and there is no height adjustment, making it a bit tall, ergonomically.

Dell Inspiron Desktop: Complete tasks on this Dell desktop computer. Its Intel Core i3 processor and 8GB of RAM reduces lag, so you can work more efficiently, and it has a 1TB hard drive, so you can store your media library. This Dell desktop computer runs Windows 10, ensuring access to the latest applications.
 

Can win 7 be installed on this machine. I know it preloaded with win 10

Most likely not. Almost every computer built for Windows 8 and 10 have no hardware drivers for Windows 7. But since some do, you need to check the website for all available drivers, which you'd need to anyway, before you install or reinstall Windows.

The NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Range Extender boosts your existing network range & speed, delivering extreme dual band WiFi up to 1900Mbps. The 700mW high-powered amplifiers provide extreme range, while the dual core 800MHz processor enables maximum WiFi performance.
 

Can this use the same SSID as my existing router?

So i won't have to change networks on devices when the signal gets weak as I move away from the main router.
The short answer is no. You'll have to manually change to "(SSID)-ext", or trust your device to switch. There is a Ubiquiti product that will seamlessly carry the same signal to any length, but they're expensive, and tricky to install.

Does it has capability to click on hyperlinks in slides?

No! It's not a mobile mouse, it simply moves PowerPoint slides.

Will this printer run with Microsoft XP pro?

The best way to find if any printer will work with your operating system, is to look on their website. HP is easy to look up. Go to their support page, look for drivers downloads, type in the model number, and match the operating system. If it doesn't show XP (or whatever os), it won't work.

Will a backup be compatible with windows 10?

If I backup windows 7 system and and change over to windows 10 will everything be compatible?
Assuming you're talking a Windows backup, then yes. And any other program you might use to backup your data, should be compatible in Win10.

does the system support Raid 1

want to mirror the HD with a second one, since my last pc I lost everything with a hd fail (and auto back up fail).
If you haven't (or don't know how to) checked the BIOS for RAID capability, then you probably better not, or let someone check, and set it up for you. Most later Dell's have the RAID option, with plenty of SATA connectors on the motherboard, therefore, go for it.

can you use 2 monitors with this tower?

Does this tower have the ability to run 2 monitors, it has a VGA output and HDMI output.
Yes! Even if the graphics connectors aren't both internal or external, the BIOS will make you hit F1 to continue, and Windows will let you extend your display to both monitors. Why not get extreme, and add a Graphics card (if the PCI-ex slot is open), and use 4 monitors?

I have a Linksys WRT160 wireless router do I need to upgrade?

Here's a perfect rule of thumb: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." If your devices have a strong enough signal, so that the don't drop out, or buffer videos, then the router is doing the job you need. BestBuy is so great about accepting returns without a hassle, if you need a better router, go to the next higher range, and if it still doesn't meet your needs, upgrade again.

what do I need to purchase to get wi-fi to work with my sudden link cable network

I bought a Motorola surfboard S86121 and a belkin 598 and have had problems ever since I got them hooked up.
First, from my humble 30 years experience, I'd say to get rid of the Belkin, and get a Netgear wireless router. Then make sure you connect everything in correct order, then reboot the modem, the router, then maybe the computer.

Windows 8.1

I tried Win 8.1. It was a refurbished unit from Walmart and I returned it. Is it necessary to need a Microsoft address in order to use the computer. I share my computer with the family and having to give out the password on a private email address so others can use the computer is not comfortable to say the least. Can this be bypassed. I'm wanting to buy another computer, but this time from Best Buy.
Yes, and no! You have to create a Microsoft account, and use the account for administrative tasks, but you can also create a "local account" for each user (or just one for everyone), which won't need your password. That way, normal everyday usage won't require a password, and you they can ask you to plug in your password to do things that might require your approval.
