Works great for the price - No complaints!

I play all sorts of games like Sonic Mega Collection Plus, Outrun 2006 Coast to Coast, Lego Star Wars 2 , Lego Indiana Jones, and I can flip the switch to accommodate any game if one mode does not work. Installing the Gamepad was easy. This controller is essentially two products in one. An XBOX 360 Controller, and a Logitech Dual Action Gamepad. Flipping the switch toggles these modes. It also works great with classic game emulators and it was easy to configure. Really do reccomend this for people with Netbooks, its like having a portable game station in your bag with a 10 inch screen.
What's great about it: Ease of Use, controller design, great for big hands
What's not so great: No cons at all.
I would recommend this to a friend!

my new laptop started showing this weird pattern, randomly, on the first day I started surfing the internet. I haven't tried other programs yet. What could be causing it? I will be returning unit to the store for a replacement.

Bad version of Firefox
July 1, 2016
It appears that this version of Firefox was incorrectly configured at the factory. Since version 47 is out now I suggest removing the one that Acer included and download the new one from the Firefox website. The laptop is fine, it's the browser.

2 out of 5Looks beautiful, but performance . . .
By minde
. . . is slow. Right out of the box I was very disappointed. The specs seem fine: i5 processor and 8 gigs of RAM. But this laptop just ran slow. Sluggish response in just about every way. Just not acceptable for someone on the go. A client who is a busy business owner bought this for himself and after I set it up I suggested he return it.

Slow performance
July 2, 2016
Once you create the recovery drive and make a backup of the wireless drivers, you can take a Windows 10 iso and do a clean format and let Windows 10 Update take care of the rest of the install. This is going to take some time, but should help with the sluggish nature of the laptop. I had noticed this too when I opened it up out of the box, that and the Firefox issue with the black dots appearing, it seems if you disable hardware acceleration the problem goes away.

No Service
September 11, 2016
My phone all of a sudden said no service to me when I was in Disneyland last month, and I did not have any cell service. Was without a phone for 2 days. I had an old Pixi Pulsar Android phone that I upgraded from, so I took the SIM card out of the Galaxy Prime and put it into the Pixi Pulsar. I turned off the Pixi Pulsar and put it back into the Galaxy Prime and my service came back. Was a weird service glitch but I ended up not needing the SIM Card they sent me.

Can small TV's be adapted for rabbit ears?
To put on kitchen counter under cabinet.
This television has an ATSC tuner so you can use rabbit ears with this television. Keep in mind that depending on where your antenna is placed you may not get a good reception. These newer TVs are nothing like the analog format where you could still get a picture even if there was slight amounts of snow on there.

I would like to know if the Logitech 2.0 speakers I purchased are compatible with a Lenovo desktop computer?
I recently purchased Logitech speakers and I would like to know if they are compatible with a Lenovo desktop computer? I would also like to know which connection on the back of my computer to plug them into? I have a pink, green and blue plug and I would like to know which one to use because I keep receiving a message saying that the audio is connected but the speaker and headphones are not connected. Please let me know as soon as possible because I would like to b able to listen and watch videos like Hulu and episodes of my soaps. Thank you very much.

This would plug into the green one. The speaker cable is green, you simply match the green cable with the green input.

Can't download pics from ipod
I bought this for my daughter, she wanted to use it to practice typing as well as reports and homework and photo printing. Plugged her iPod in and, while it recognized her iPod it would not recognize any available files... If you can help, it would be appreciated as I have been in the Mac world for the last 12 years and am struggling
You mean iPod Touch? Probably need to install iTunes first.

Whats Included?
I've seen on many websites that you can upgrade to Windows 10 (When Available) and you get a $25 gift card for Microsoft. Do those apple here?
The $25 gift card offer is true. You get a website where you have to validate your computer but once you do, you can download anything up to $25 from the XBOX Games store in Windows 8.1, the Windows 8.1 App Store, XBOX Movies and XBOX Games. Browser needed a little adjustment but it worked after that :)

Is this good for Streaming on a TV, web access
Currently use pc to access programs (cbs.com, etc) , netflix, hulu, HBO on tv. Will this work? I do not have cable
Yup. I have a Dynex 16" LED Television and I hooked it up to there and the picture quality was great for an INTEL HD graphics chip. I was able to do 1080p and it looked pretty nice as well on the main laptop screen.
If you have a really big flat panel television I suggest at least a 6 foot to 12 foot cable depending on what you want to do.

Since Dynex products are a Best Buy brand, you should see a quick turn around for the order fulfillment process providing they have some in the local stock. I know that this TV was once hard to find through a different revision of it. Your local Best Buy store can also help you place an order online as well if you don't want to use your credit card online.

local channels
To get just local channels, does this tv need just an antenna or also a converter box?
Thanks
Thanks
This TV has a built in digital tuner. All you need to do is purchase an Antenna and you can pickup local channels. Unencrypted QAM channels may work from the cable company without a converter box but direct through coaxial but its not guaranteed.
