Got one for my bedroom and paired it with my bluetooth speaker and man I couldn't be happier with this thing. Understands everything i say to it without having to raise my voice even while playing music. I plan to expand beyond the bedroom and have it control all my lights and my ac as well. The possibilities are almost endless. For 50 bucks you really can't go wrong with this. I would have uploaded video but I guess best buy reviews don't allow it which is a shame because pictures alone don't do justice.
My Best Buy number: 0077022165
I would recommend this to a friend!

Is it the second generation? There is a very similar product to be released on Amazon which is clearly marked as "All-New Echo Dot (2nd Generation)". I want to make sure that this is exactly the same item before I place the order. Thanks.

yes. you can tell the 2nd gens because they have physical volume buttons on the top the 1st gen does not.

What is the difference between the Dot and the Echo?

The amazon echo is larger and has a built in high def speaker. The dot does not however it does have a small built in speaker so it can work on it's own. The built in speaker for the dot is actually pretty decent but if you want higher quality sound for music you are definitely going to want to pair it with a nice bluetooth speaker or even connect it via aux to speaker.

Will dot work with tv?

No. as of now it can't control your tv. If you buy special wifi plugs you can control the power but that's about it as far as i know.

Do you have to pay for music or do you get free amazon music?

If you have prime you can get free prime music. You can also pay for unlimited which lets you play any song you want for free for 4 dollars a month if you sign up for it through the echo dot. If you don't want to do any of that the echo can also hook up to your iheart or pandora account plus a few others and use those to stream music as well. So you have multiple options for free music listening.

How should I compare monitors when shopping for a new one?

I haven't bought a monitor in over 10 years. I need a new one, about 20" or so. I work form home and need something larger than my used 15". In fact, I could use 2 monitors. I don't know what the specs mean or how to compare one monitor with another. Can you give me some pointers?
I'll make it easy for you. Stick with dell monitors you can't go wrong and you won't be dissapointed.

I suggest any of these copy past link:

My only other suggestion is to go with 1600X900 if you are getting a 20 inch.

Which monitor good for Photography

I have this one myself : Dell - 23" Widescreen Flat-Panel LCD Monitor
Model: STB2310 | SKU: 9769389

great picture quality for either gaming or photography. My g/f is very heavy into photoshop and all that artistic stuff and she loves using my computer to do it because of my monitor so take that as you will.

patterns of lines or blocks that come and go.

sometimes the blocks move when i move the mouse. is the video card or monitor bad?
most likely is it your video card. The easiest way to know is to hook up your computer to another monitor and see if you get the same results, then you will know.
