Nice Software good as an add-on

This came as part of my system. I had not used them before but decided to try them out. The product is pretty good and maybe worth renewing. I would recommend this for older OS because Windows 10 built-in security suite does a good job as well and is part of the OS so you are not using up extra disk space to store this software. This is important on laptops with hard to upgrade and limited storage

HP Spectre 360 very elegant

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a nice machine. Very light and capabilities on par or better than HP Omen laptops in the processor tpm marks. Bby has the best configuration and price over HP Direct and this makes for an excellent road warrior and power user machine. Note this model does not come with a pen. However, be careful not to throw out the included laptop case. I almost did. I wished it had one more USB type A port. The keys are very easy to use and I was typing on it like I had owned the main for a long time.
If you travel get the GSP. It is well worth the additional cost.

The k400 is excellent

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have a older logitech board of the same form factor. The problem with that board was the shift and enter keys were swapped and made the board difficult to use. The K400 version corrects that problem. I use this board mainly when working on my Raspberry PI''s and when ever I need a quick keyboard and touch pad access to a desktop or laptop. The keys are nice and construction is great.

Went to BBY to purchase a small Bluetooth speaker for Halloween and the best buy associate recommended this speaker and it was on sale and better then what I was going to originally buy. It is a very good speaker and amazing sound.

Bose QC30 Bluetooth

Verified Purchase:Yes
These are very nice head phones and if you want a wireless light weight set of phones would excellent sound quality. It blocks out about 85% of airplane noise however you can still hear the announcements and does a good job at blocking the other noises. The are not as good as the QC35 over-the-ear but work well. If the price is too high for you then look at the Sony's 1000X BT they work just as well as these but they are over the ear phones.

This is a great sequel to the franchise. Big action! Cyber crime! I was emursed in to the film and near the end one actor just stoled the show. It was a wonderful ride with twists and turns that i didn't see coming.

Show off your Samsung Galaxy S7 device with this Candyshell clear phone case. Dual-layer protection disperses impact and absorbs shock to keep your phone safe in the event of a drop. Featuring perimeter port and camera protection, this Candyshell clear phone case provides easy access to your device’s different features.
 

Those who have used this case for months, has it lived up to it'd non-yellowing? Also, in all other clear cases I've seen that it gets a water "rainbow" mark in the back of the phone, maybe from oil. Is that true with this one as well?

User submitted photo
After some time it will yellow. I think it is the heat from the phone itself.

Windows 8 setup is asking if I want to auto upgrade to Win 10 when it comes out. Is changing OS going to void my HP warranty?

Historical reference: I upgraded my last HP to Win 8 from Win 7 and HP refused to help me after that. Basically washed their hands of the whole mess Win 8 left me in - siting "your warranty is void if you change the OS."
No it will not! However read more on windows 10 before you jump. I'm not going to go to 10.

Expandability

This model comes with 16 GB RAM. What is the maximum RAM it will support?
16gb is max. This typical on consumer based machines. To have more memory capacity you have to go to the HP omen or get into the elitebooks business class machines.

Will I void the warranty by inserting an additional 16gb ram?

No you will not void your warranty. HP provides a service manual for end-user serviceable parts. Like hard drives, memory and battery. Head over to support.hp.com and enter your model number. From there select your model of laptop. If you have issues there is a link on the page to detect your laptop that will get you in the right direction. Once that is sorted out, you want to hit the manuals section. There you will find how to do this and other things you didn't know about.

Enjoy
