Good overall value

I have a custom built gaming PC running on this unit. With Core i7, 16GB of Ram, Asus Motherboard and GTX770 video card, at full load I pull about 250W, so this UPS is handling it perfectly. I first tried a cheaper one, 450VA model, and it was overloaded by my system, this unit is only $20 more, and also can be connected to a computer with a USN cable to be used with Power Panel Software, so I think it's better value overall.

Game Of The Year IMO
on December 16, 2015
Posted by: drumnbass
from Pittsburgh
This is an amazing game, it will truly take up next couple of months of your life. To anyone looking at this as a gift for someone, I don't think this game if for everyone. It's bloody and often inappropriate for younger games, keep in mind. Also it's huge, with many different game mechanics and deep game systems that can be frustrating to some of the more casual gamers. Otherwise it looks great, plays great and has a TON of content, much more stuff to do than any other game that's out right now. Only complaint is those load screens, there are a lot of them and some times they can be up to a minute or so.

Works as expected

Not much to say about this little device. It works as expected and lets me use my Xbox One controller with with PC. It's a little but larger than I'd like and it almost covers the USB port below it, that's my only complaint, but it can be easily resolved with an USB extender, so it's not that big of an issue.

Sanctuary is a place of peace and safety, but you know this hasn't always been the case. Two decades ago the Prime Evils plagued your world, but thanks to the tireless combat waged by the Barbarians, Demon Hunters, Monks, Witch Doctors and Wizards their reign of terror came to an end. Now whispers are circulating in the city of Tristram, the place where it all began, and rumor has it that a new menace is coming. Heroes must rise to the call of battle once more and defend Sanctuary against the demon hordes. Raise your weapon, sharpen your skills and join the quest — before it's too late.Return to the world of Sanctuary to wage war against the forces of evil in this action-packed Ultimate Evil Edition, which combines the thrilling Diablo III with the critically acclaimed Reaper of Souls expansion pack. Choose your identity from one of the five original customizable classes, including Barbarian, Demon Hunter, Monk, Witch Doctor and Wizard, or select the all-new Crusader class that lets you don fortified armor and rain down holy vengeance on the powers of darkness. Jump into the action of Reaper of Souls when you set out on an epic quest through frightening and awe-inspiring landscapes where peril lurks around every corner on the journey to the legendary city of Westmarch. Decimate demonic foes in fast-paced combat as you fight your way to the ultimate opponent — Malthael, the Angel of Death, a terrifying enemy bent on the ultimate destruction of the innocent denizens of Sanctuary. Feel the freedom of an expansive open world with Adventure mode, which lets you unleash your powers anywhere at any time as you strike down any demon foolish enough to cross your path. Track down the elder evil in randomized objectives that allow you to explore Sanctuary in new ways and earn bounties. Descend into the depths of fully randomized dungeons with Nephalem Rifts that deliver hours of replayability and tons of loot. Quest with advanced players and boost your stats with Apprentice mode. Personalize your loot by seeking out The Mystic, a mysterious artisan who takes your gear to the next level. Fight alone or with friends in four-player same-screen mode or online multiplayer mode. Receive the Infernal Pauldrons with pre-order — exclusive transmogrifiable shoulder plates honed to a deadly sharpness that are wearable in level one and provide enhanced health, life regeneration and cooldown reduction. Your might is needed to defend Sanctuary from the malevolent drive of a demon army — it's time to shoulder your weapon and leap into the fray once again.

This is an awesome game for any Diablo or RPG fan. It's easy to get into for new players too. Controller works good for it, I actually enjoyed it more than keyboard and mouse.

Good but not perfect

Posted by: drumnbass

It works well but I have a problem with media player always popping up for no reason. I've been researching it and it seems like there are others that are having similar issues, either with default media player launching on PC or a web browser, it appears to be a hardware issue with shortcuts buttons on the keyboard and as a experiment I've removed the media button... and so far no pop ups, so I'd call it a design flaw. I have a missing key now, but I don't care as everything else works great.

Awesome device for a price!
on November 27, 2015
Posted by: drumnbass
from Pittsburgh
The sale price on this fitness band is great, it's cheaper than most other bands out there, and looks so much nicer. Works great as well, but has some limitations to be aware of.
There were some earlier reviews, and most online reviews, that state the limitations of the Gear Fit as a fitness tracking device. I want to let everyone know, a lot of them have been resolved, the biggest one that I was worried about was the claim that the pedometer had to me manually turned on every time, this was most definitely fixed by Samsung. It always counts my steps, and seems to be pretty accurate. I love the design of it, it looks very cool. I also love its limited smartwatch features, and I actually love that they're limited. I never wanted a full smart watch, I don't want some ugly electronic watch replacing my Movado or Bulova, so Gear Fix works well for me. I wear it on the other arm and it doesn't look like I'm wearing two watches like a complete geek. My favorite features are the media control, weather on my main screen, text messaging notifications and the Find My Phone option.
Now, there are some negatives. One of the most painful ones to me is the cheap plastic around the front glass, that silver part, it started peeling off after two days. Another negative if it's limited connectivity. It's designed to work with Samsung phones and S Health all. I think there are workarounds that let people use it with other android phones, but they're workarounds, so not very user friendly. There are better apps for fitness and nutrition tracking out there, but I couldn't find a way to sync my Gear Fit to any of them, so that's why I gave it 4 stars.
Overall, Samsung Galaxy Gear Fit is not a device for everyone, and it's a little outdated now. If you're a Samsung user/fanboy, you'll most likely love the Gear Fit.
P.S. Battery lasts me 3 days with somewhat heavy use and it recharges quickly, in about 30 minutes.

Good price and "probably" a laptop
on November 27, 2015
Posted by: drumnbass
from Pittsburgh
First of all, the rating is lower than it probably should be because a bunch of people gave it a one star for being sold our before Black Friday without actually waiting for Black Friday to find out that there were in fact plenty more. Of course a bunch more people were still late to buy one and gave it more one star reviews because of that. Real smooth.
I was able to get one at the store. Price is awesome for what it is, but I don't know how good the actual device is, as it was purchased a Christmas gift for a relative.
4 stars because I can't give a perfect score to a product just based on its price.

I'm sure it does much more than I need
on January 6, 2015
Posted by: drumnbass

First of all, big kudos to BestBuy! On top of having the best price on this printer, their free shipping option, which estimated 6-7 days for delivery, took only 2 days!
I only print and scan things. For that it works flawlessly. Prints super quickly and quality is great for a B&W laser printer, no complaints at all. Scans just fine, may not be good enough for a graphic designer, but for basic use, like documents, receipts and invoices it does fine. However, like other have mentioned, scanning can be tricky. I use Photoshop's Import option to scan, and it took me a little while to figure out that to be able to scan, I first have to manually switch to scan mode on the printer, then select "Remote Scanner" and it scans. And don't forget to press back on "Copy" to be able to print again. This is one part I wish was a little bit easier, I'm taking a star off for that.
Other features I can't comment on, but only hope they work if I ever need then are: Scanner document feeder - my brief tests were unsuccessful, I couldn't figure out how to get it to work, but I didn't really try hard anyway as I will probably never use it. Fax - I don't have a land line, so I can't test it, and I don't remember the last time I had to fax anything.
Other thoughts. Some parts feel a little flimsy, like paper tray, or a control panel. When puling the control panel up, make sure it goes up all the way and clicks in place, it took a little force and wasn't really obvious. When you open a scanner cover, or open printer up to access its internals, make sure it's opened all the way, and maybe even hold it with another hand as they seem to like to slam shut violently. And finally, I used a wired LAN connection and my router is showing it in orange instead of while for properly configured devices. According to the manual it should have configured automatically, but this indicates that something is not properly configured on the network, however it doesn't seem to affect any functionality with a hard wired PC. I haven't had a chance to try to connect a wireless laptop, it sees the printer but says online, it might just be a configuration or driver thing, I might need to install drivers I'm guessing, hopefully that's the case.
Overall I'm happy with this purchase. I'm an advanced PC user and work in IT, I just don't want to mess with too much configuring at home, I do plenty of that at work, so 4 stars.

Totally innapropriate review
June 15, 2015
It obviously sounds like you're upset that this game is not coming to PS4 (btw, nowhere does it say it ever will), I can understand that, but it doesn't make it "trash". As a review of a product, you shouldn't rate it a one star based on if it's coming to your console of choice or not.

Does the charger work with 220V?

Will this charger work in Europe/India where they use 220V? Or does the charger work with 110V only?
Actual wall charger says Input 100-240V, so it should be fine, but you can also just use any Micro USB cable to charge it with.

i want to buy a printer

what printer goes with a hp pavilion touch smart 21-ho14 all in one pc
Pretty much any printer will work. Ask yourself what you're going to use it for. If you just want to print some documents, concert tickets or boarding passes, get a B&W laser printer, because toner lasts for ever and they don't require as much maintenance. If you want to print full color pictures or photos, get an Ink-Jet, but be prepared to spend a little more on expensive Ink.
