Super Heroes accountable to "New World Order"?
on October 15, 2016
Posted by: Gman
from DC area
Verified Purchase:Yes
It seems to me that the classic superheroes were never so destructive. The incredible amount of collateral damage inflicted by "modernized / updated" guardians while saving the world from various psychopathic nihilists and aliens presents a conundrum in my view; a solution akin to "throwing out the baby with the bathwater". This movie attempts to convey the upside & downside what UN / "One World" type of regulation of our heroes may accomplish.

Visually beautiful but brutal movie + extras

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you liked the movie you are gonna love this Blu-Ray because 1080p picture and Dolby Digital 5.1 sound make it readily apparent why Braveheart won top awards for Best Picture, Director, Cinematography, Sound Effects and Makeup. Disc 1 includes Gibson's commentary and Disc 2 has many extras.

Demo-quality transfer. Nicely done all around but a bit slow at times. Excellent acting and a very interesting story but the boy is a bit enigmatic in that his powers are never fully explained.

Each movie has its own disc and is rendered in 1080p with DTS-HD MA & Dolby Digital 5.1. I have not compared this to the five-disc "Collection" edition (so I do not know what is included on the missing disc) but the video and audio quality of this set is a vast improvement over the DVD releases.

Good value if you only shred a few pages at a time

Inexpensive and works well for 10 pages or less at a time; otherwise it overheats and will temporarily shut itself down.

A bit pricey, but I captured a 30 years old VHS tape from my15+ years old VCR with no problems and surprisingly good quality. I cannot imagine it being much easier than this to digitize analog videos.

This switch features a VGA port and 2 USB ports that let you share the use of a monitor and 2 USB peripherals, such as a mouse and a keyboard, between 2 different computers. The plug-and-play design allows easy setup.
 

Would be able to use this switch with a MacBook and a Windows 10 computer to a single monitor?

I GUESS that will work. NO PROMISES, but I cannot think of a reason it would not function that way.

Does the VGA port have to be in use? I only wish to control 1 keyboard, one mouse for two computers.

That is precisely how I use it. I switch HDMI locally at the monitor.. It works great for me!

I want to set this up where one USB cable comes from the computer to the Switch. Then one coming from another (Microscope). When I switch it to the other port it cuts power to the microscope.

My GUESS is that it will work for you. NO PROMISES, THOUGH.

Extend the length of your VGA or Super VGA monitor cable with this 10' Insignia™ NS-PV10509 cable that works with most monitors less than 17" and features DB15 male-to-female gold connectors for optimal signal strength.
 

Cable # NS-PV10509 listing states that the cable will work with monitors less than 17" . Will it work on larger monitors like from computer to TV . Thanks

It should work with any display device that has a VGA (HD-15) connector. Depending on image size and ambient electrical interference you may see minor artifacts but there are none visible in the system using the item I purchased.

Store important games, videos, music, and more on this Western Digital Blue series hard drive. Its 2.5-inch form factor makes it suitable for use in laptops or notebooks. This 1TB Western Digital Blue series hard drive runs at 5400 rpm for decreased heat and power consumption.
 

Does this internal hard drive fit for Dell XPS15 L521X ?

Almost certainly. According to the XPS15 L521X Owner's Manual downloaded from Dell's website: a SATA 2.5" HDD is specified or a 2.5" SATA SSD (Solid State Drive) may may be installed instead.

Is this a bare drive?

Yes. Nothing else is included (or necessary if you are simply replacing a existing HDD).

Connect up to 4 USB 2.0 devices to your computer through a single port with this Insignia™ NS-PCH5421 hub, which features 4 USB ports that support data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps for speedy uploads and downloads.
 

How would I wire two windows PC's to one printer?

I use a small networked "Print Server" like a (wireless) TP-LINK TL-WPS510U or a (wired) D-Link DP-301U.

This Dynex™ DX-10MC cable features charge-and-sync capability, allowing you to power and transfer media stored on your micro USB-enabled device. The 3' cable length gives flexible placement options.
 

Does this cable charge an lg g2 or g3 fast or slow? Some cables charge slow even with a fast charger.

I don't use them to charge anything BUT they provide real-time (no latency) USB keyboard & mouse from ten (10) computers that are located more than one hundred (100) feet away and converted to / from IP over CAT6 wire. My guess is that they are fast enough for a charger...
