Hey its a great game and I have already played it years ago on X360 but for this price can't go wrong getting a touched up update with lots of DLC. I may get into playing it again but likely it will just be in the collection for a rainy day when I get old!

For the most part the battery packs you can get online are much better capacity and much cheaper. This is a nice unit for retail. Rayo-Vac means good quality and 10K Mamphrs is pretty decent. Worthwhile for phones or small tablets.

I have purchased and installed a good number of camera/dvr solutions and I like Lorex about the best. Easy to setup DVR, easy to Setup sharing to the internet, Nice PC and mobile apps (both iso and droid) and the camera quality are decent. This kit normally goes for $500 and got it for $375. Really can't beat it as the cams are 1080p ultra wide angle the the DVR supports 8 cams (4 in this kit).

This is my first 128mb MicroSD card. Got it for a little over $40 on sale and works like a charm. Currently using it in my WiiU but plan to use it on Switch when it comes out this spring (supposed to use MicroSD).

Your basic GSM SIMM card for use on H20 network. For those that don't know H20 is rebranded ATT. Decent support and offer monthly or minute paygo plans. $30 a month gets unlimited talk/txt and 1GB of LTE data that rolls over if not used (up to 10gb).
This was one of the new 3 size SIMMs so will work in about any GSM phone you can find.

This is more like an end of your thumb drive.....lol. It was on sale for like less than $20 for a 64gb so just couldn't resist.
Makes a great stick to use in something like a WiiU or console as it barely sticks out of the slot at all. Decent speeds and its USB 3.0

This is the best of the best of Lego games. Great gameplay and humorous plot the only real downside was the long load times but they aren't too frequent so it is bearable.

Well Nintendo does it again with another AAA platformer for WiiU. Now we have Mario, Luigi, DK, and Kirby all on WiiU along with our yarn filled friend. The grafx are really slick in this and the yarn theme adds in various ways to the gameplay. If you like old school then this is going to be fun for you!

ASUS USB-AC53 Nano USB Wifi Adapter delivers an instant Plug and Play providing 802.11ac Wifi standard for desktops and laptops. The dual-band wireless AC1200 USB adapter features 2.4GHz and 5GHz connectivity coupled with MU-MIMO technology.
 

What speed are you able to get with this through a USB 2.0 port? USB 2.0 is rated up to 480 mbps, but usually you don't get this level of throughput due to a variety of factors.

Not sure as I used it on USB3 which is does support on USB3 with a decent newer WIFI router I was able to connect 802.11AC @ 896mb. So it was zippy. USB2 actual throughput is about 1/2 of what is specified so you will likely get about 240mb/sec via USB2

The NETGEAR AC1750 Smart WiFi 5 Router with external antennas delivers extremely fast WiFi. With AC1750 WiFi, Gigabit Ethernet speeds, and high-powered external antennas, this router offers ultimate performance in wireless coverage for large homes with 12 or more wireless devices. It gets 3x faster access than similar 802.11n.
 

Will the router handle fire stick Or roku?

I wouldn't see why not. They should be operating on standard wifi this router supports 802.11ABCN which is about every standard. The wifi bandwidth on the router is great so should be no problem streaming HD or even multiple HD as long as your internet speed is fast.

Display, charge and play on your Nintendo Switch console with this Insignia dock kit. Its charging port with USB 2.0 output powers a controller and any other compatible device, and its HDMI cable connects your Switch to an HDTV. This Insignia dock kit includes a USB-C AC adapter for power outlet charging.
 

Does this device let you play in table top mode if you unplug the hdmi cable but still charge the Switch and play at the sametime?

It will not (that is one feature the Nyko supports). The power supply will work to charge you Switch so if you use a stand like the Hori one then at least you can use this charger when in portable mode.

The Samsung Countertop Microwave makes preparing multiple dishes effortless with 1.4 cu. ft. capacity. Designed with a scratch-resistant interior, this modern microwave features Sensor Cooking options which automatically provide optimal cooking results.
 

How hard is the OPEN button to push? How noisy is the door when closing it? Is the light bulb situated so we can change it ?(GE's you need a technician to replace theirs)

On the Black-Stainless model (which really only has stainless on the edge trim) the button works quite nicely. Easy to push. I noticed on just the straight black version the button was not as smooth. The door seems to close quietly and smoothly. Overall I was quite impressed with the build quality of what is otherwise an inexpensive unit. The light is decent and comes on when opening the door (some unit do not). Not sure what has to be done to change it.

Ideal for use with desktop performance towers, all-in-one computers, consumer-grade NAS devices or desktop RAID arrays, this Seagate internal hard drive features a 1TB capacity, so you can store plenty of digital files.
 

Would this fit in my HD bay on my 2008 intel imac?

Just wanted to know for sure if this would fit. My previous HD dimensions were 3.5 x 1 . This product is 4 x .5 .
It will fit 3.5 x 1 is the form factor and 4x5 must be the actual inches of the external case if it is a 3.5 inch hard drive bay this should fit.

Warantee discrepancy

Website says 5 years, inside the box it says 2 years... what's the deal?
Seagate only does 5 years on server line HDs which generally cost more. 2 years is still pretty generous as most other manufactures have gone to 1 year on desktop hard drives.

Is this Win 7 64bit compatible

The Barracuda 1TB Internal Serial ATA Hard Drive 7200rpm 32meg buffer is this compatible with Win 7 64bit
Sure if you motherboard supports SATA this drive will work fine with Win7 x64

dell dimension 8400

will this hard drive be compatible...i am already upgrading my memory to 4gb...thanx
As long as your computer/mother board supports SATA (Serial ATA HD) it should support this drive. All newer SATA drives work with older SATA standards so even if you have a stat 1.5gb controller it will work fine with newer SATA 3 or 6 drives. Sometimes older BIOSes will only support 2TB but you should be fine as this is a 1TB drive. If you have the older IDE connecter (a wide flat ribbon cable) then you will need a PATA drive which you may have to order online as they are getting pretty rare at the stores.
