Successfully replaces all my remotes

Does a good job. I used it to replace remotes for my TV, sound system and DVD player. You can program it so most things are a one click operation. For example, I set it up on my PC so when I click the Watch TV button, it turns on the TV, sets input to HDMI2 and turns on the sound system.
Occasionally things don't work quite right (sound was on and it get's toggled off instead, etc), but it's got a nice menu system to get the to device you want and change it.
The remote has a small LCD window which turns on automatically when you pick up the remote, which I like.
So I'm very happy with it. It's easy to set up, easy to use, and really does replace the 3 remotes I was using before.

Good monitor - just wish it had adjustable height

Good monitor. It was reasonably priced, has IPS and has a sharp image with good contrast. I wish the stand was adjustable height, but it seems most monitors these days do not. I'll probably get a monitor arm instead, at least it has VESA mounting holes.

Great laptop

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this about a month ago to replace a Toshiba ultrabook I had to take back (bad wifi, touch-screen issues). I'm very happy with the Lenovo. It's fast and quiet. The battery is good and I like the Lenovo power management software which keeps the battery optimally charged (about 70%) when I have it plugged in for an extended period. I like the backlit keyboard better than most laptops I've tried. I really like the fact that is has a discrete graphics card which comes in handy when I play a game on the rare occasion.

Surprisingly good sound
on August 2, 2014
Posted by: EvilDeer
from Kirkland, WA
Type of Listener:Avid listener
Most Important to Purchase:Sound quality
How Often Used:1-2 times a week
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the first bluetooth speaker I've purchased. I wanted something that I could use to play music from my phone when I'm working in the garage and around the house on projects.
I was pleasantly surprised how good the sound quality was. Obviously it's only Mono (although I like you can use two in stereo mode if you get a second one), and it's not the same as a giant floor speaker, but the sound quality was good and the volume was good enough that I didn't have to turn it up to full even when working in the garage.
I had no problems with coupling, haven't tried to drain the battery but it lasts for hours at least, and the range seems pretty good.
Very good for the price. Initially I was going to buy a more expensive speaker, because I was concerned that such a small unit wouldn't produce a decent sound, but I've been pleasantly surprised and glad I went with this.

What is the exact height of the monitor with the stand at an upright position?

I need to ensure that the monitor will fit under the hutch for my desk comfortably.
Total height with the monitor completely vertical is 15 1/8". If you tilt the monitor to a reasonable viewing angle, it's a little less (i.e. as low as 14 3/4").

Does this come with built in speakers?

I need to know if this comes with speakers
No. It has no speakers. It does have a headphone jack so you can run speakers directly from it if you have it hooked up via HDMI.

Support for external monitors?

Does this laptop support one or two monitors. I see it has hdmi, but how do you plug in an external monitor and can you plug in more than one external monitor? Are there other laptops that support external monitors?
This laptop only has a single HDMI for graphics output so you can only really support one external monitor. I was also hoping to find a laptop that supported two monitors but didn't find anything reasonable. You can get USB adapters to support additional external monitors, but I don't think the performance of those is very good.
