Arrived promptly, fits online description perfectly. I purchased the item based on price/capacity to be used for backing up my raw format photos since they consume memory quickly. If you're looking for something tiny this is for you. It fits snugly in the USB port and can be a bit challenging to remove.

Arrived Quickly

This movie arrived within a few days after I had purchased on sale as deal of the day. I had seen the plastic case version being sold at the same price but I prefer the steel case because they generally don"t fall apart as quickly as plastic. I would likely have given 5 stars if it hadn't been dented upon arrival. The packaging was pristine so I can only assume it was shipped in that condition. Movie functions fine however so didn't want to drive across town to exchange it.

Warm and Useful for working in low-light condition
on November 25, 2016
Posted by: technogrannie

Verified Purchase:Yes
This item was purchased as a gift for my son who has his own automotive repair shop. Although he has excellent overhead lighting it does little for working under vehicles on the lift and this saves him from having to step over or around his trouble light cord. His only complaint is the light positioning is not adjustable so he must move the cap around to focus on his work area. The cap keeps his head warm without causing him to sweat when he's working in 50-60 degree conditions. He now wants the orange one for hunting season.

Fine for Music

Verified Purchase:Yes
I like to compile an assortment of music to play in my car while driving however our New Mexico heat is hard on CDs when kept in a vehicle so rather than damaging my original disks I copy my favorite songs onto these and then when they warp or start skipping I simply toss them out and burn new copies. On sale they were an economical choice for me.

Transferring videos to DVDs for children and grandchildren to preserve memories. On sale they made it easy to make plenty of copies for everyone. I prefer lightscribe but evidently they were unpopular and are difficult to find these days.

Chill out with the Holmes 20-inch box fan. Three speed settings ensure that you can adjust the airflow in your room to match your desired comfort level, and it has feet for maximum stability. Wrap the cord around the back so that you can take this Holmes 20-inch box fan anywhere quickly.

Good price for box fans

Verified Purchase:Yes
The dis-connectable power cord centered in the back of the fan is a huge inconvenience for those who simply want a fan that fits into a window because it sticks out in back and does not fit against a screen as did it's predecessor would with it's bottom surface mounted cord. Also the cord tends to vibrate itself loose on occasion. Had they not changed the cord I would have easily rated it a 5 out of 5 stars but in this instance new is definitely NOT improved.

Decent Skillet for the Price

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this on sale (Deal of the Day) as I occasionally missed mine after retiring them several years back. I kept looking but always talked myself out of a replacement due to storage, or "lack of" in my case. The price was right so even if I only used for summer dishes and stored it in the garage over winter I would feel like I got my money's worth. I would have given it a 5 if the lid had been vented but who likes soggy fried onion rings??? You have to tilt the lid partially off which lets grease escape and splatter so I only gave it a 4. Cleans up easily.

I have iPad 2 , iPad mini and nesseary adapters . Will this drive function with an iPad ?

You will need to have the USB port (not the charging port) and most likely the USB to USB mini adapter

This HP 27vx monitor features a large 27" HD display with fast response times and a stunning 8,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, so your Web pages, movies and games pop with bright, detailed visuals. HDMI input lets you connect a variety of HD devices.
 

What are the screen's true dimensions?

Hello,
Please tell me the screen's true vertical and horizontal dimensions. Also, is the diagonal dimension a true 27 inches? Thank you kindly.

Respectfully,
Sandra L. Goode
The actual viewing size of the screen is 13" high by 231/2" wide. Quite a nice fit for an average desk with very small frame area. I replaced an older 25" monitor and this 27" actually takes up less space on my desk. Just shy of a full 27"

Does this have a displayport?

Not sure what you mean but it has an HDMI, VGA and DVI input port on the back for various PC inputs. No sound input if you were looking to use it with a DVD player.

Is there a headphone jack somewhere on the side /back of the monitor?

NO it does not have any output ports of any kind so you would need to connect speakers or mic to your computer

Can the monitor be used on a stand

the pictures do not show the back of monitor so not sure if I can desk mount it on a arm
It would only work with its own stand, small metal bracket goes into a slot and tightens with a set screw

Is the screen glossy or matte?

glossy screen and so far good color and detail for working with photo-editing software programs so would venture to say equally fine for gaming

Keep your equipment safe while on the go with this Lowepro Urban Reporter 150 LP36616 messenger bag, which features a padded, removable camera insert for flexible storage and a padded compartment to house a laptop.
