Good for switching between Ubuntu and Wndws 7

Strengths - the switch worked without having to install anything onto either of my computers. The automatic key combination is scroll lock scroll lock. It works with my mouse, keyboard, monitor, and speakers.
Weaknesses - The speaker cord is too short to reach my desktop and my laptop the way it is designed so I had to get an extension cable, but other than that I have no issues.
What's great about it: Easy to set up, works with linux and windows
What's not so great: Speaker cord is too short
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing game

I would say the online experience is the best for this game, but if you are not hooked up to Xbox Live and still want a good game Call of Duty has it.
Special Ops is never ending it seems and adds a lot of difficulty to the game.
The campaign was fun and the different difficulties actually make it really hard.
I would buy this game if you own a console.
What's great about it: Everything, but mainly online play
What's not so great: Graphics could be better and there are some glitches here and there
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hilarious movie if you like these types of movies
on December 17, 2009
Posted by: NickC
from Cincinnati, OH
This movie is one of my favorite movies I have seen in a while. The little kid does an amazing job. He does curse a lot in the movie, but it adds to the humor if you are into these types of movies. I would say this is geared towards college students and young adults.
I think this is a must see movie because there are so many one liners in this that will be remembered for a while.
What's great about it: Bobbie E Thompson, everything else
What's not so great: Cinamatography because its a comedy
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good CD but Eminem is a little twisted
on December 17, 2009
Posted by: NickC
from Cincinnati, OH
The CD basically falls right in line with all his previous CDs only now that he has proven to be a good artist he seems to be continuously pushing the limits. I personally enjoy the CD, but others who have heard it thought it was quite messed up as far as lyrics go.
I will still say that Eminem is a lyrical genius. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone unless they have listened, and liked, eminem before.
What's great about it: Good lyrics as usual, some catchy background,
What's not so great: Very dark, ominous, and twisted
I would recommend this to a friend!

A tiny powerful fan
on July 26, 2009
Posted by: NickC
from Cincinnati, OH
This fan is a really good fan if you want one to help cool a decent size room. For the size of the fan it pushes out a lot of power.
The only thing I don't like about it is the fact that there are only 3 settings, but it seems finding a fan with more than that these days is hard to do.
I would recommend this product to anyone looking to keep the airflow constant in a house.
What's great about it: Very Powerful, circulates very well, reliable
What's not so great: Only 3 settings
I would recommend this to a friend!

Delivery available only for some TV's?
Why is delivery available only for some of the flat panel TV's? I don't mean included for free, but available as a choice in checkout.
The reasoning might be that they aren't available in the warehouse, but are available at stores. Most likely these sets are either backordered or are going to be discontinued shortly.

If you already have a blu ray player, what else is needed for a home theatre system?
Depends on what you are looking for. If you want to get surround sound then that would be additional or a better HDTV. All these things are preference over anything else.

How to remove a virus from a laptop
What are the steps to removing a virus from a laptop?
Removing a virus from a laptop is easier said than done. Without knowing what type of virus and where it is on your laptop it will be hard to remove. The Geek Squad can take those off for you, or you can also try Kaspersky Internet Security which is the best anti-virus on the market. I would bring in your laptop and talk to the Geek Squad to see the damage before buying anything though.

what kind of wireless usb adapter would fit?
I jsut purchased the gateway SX2802-07 Desktop from you and now need to get a wireless usb adapter to hook up to my network. This computer is a little smaller so i'm wondering if you can recomend a usb that you carry for this? I've just got a regular dsl cable hookup with a linksys router. This will be the only computer on the network.
If that is all you need I would just recommend the linksys adapter that matches your router. You don't have to get Linksys, but they sync easier and it will probably drop less often if at all.

IS THERE SUCH A THING AS A TOUCH PAD WIRELESS KEYBOARD? iI want a touch pad with an all in one.
There is one, Logitech makes one that has a touchpad in a corner of the keyboard. HP used to make one that had a roller in the top right and the keyboard attached as well. Mainly designed for Media Centers so you didn't have to worry about to items.

does the blackberry need to have internet?
Most Blackberries require a data plan, I believe there are one or 2 that do not require data, I would go into Best Buy and ask just to make certain.

I am with US Celluar. Can I buy a phone from Beest Buy?
I don't believe Best Buy sells any US Cellular Phones, but I only know about my region in the Midwest if you are somewhere else I would call the local Best Buy to see what they sell for certain.

If you buy Smartphones at best buy, do they still require a data plan
The answer to that is if you need one at Sprint, At&t, Verizon, etc. then you need one at Best Buy they follow the same guidelines.

iphone with existing at&t contract
I have a contract with At&t, had an iphone that was damaged and need a new one. Can i purchase one from Best Buy if I have an existing contract already? I dont mind renewing my contract for an additional 2 years from this point if that is necessary.
It depends on how long you have had your Iphone or if you have insurance. If you are eligible to upgrade then you can get the upgrade price at Best Buy. I would go into Best Buy and see if you are eligible for an upgrade.
