Very comfortable keyboard.

This is the fourth time I've purchased this keyboard over the past ten years. I blame the frequency of replacement on myself; each time it failed was due to a spill of some sort (water, coffee, tea, etc.). I give it four stars because it doesn't stand up to spills at all. If waterproofing was a little more robust, it would be an easy 5-star review.
The keyboard is extremely customizable using its software, and it is a pleasure to type on, so long hours at the computer are a lot more comfortable. The incorporated wrist/palm rest is one of my favorite features.
It keeps me coming back.

Thirty years later, still excellent.

I’ll tell you right out of the gate, it’s impossible for me to give this movie an unbiased review. I loved it when I saw it in ’87, owned it on VHS, DVD, and now Blu-Ray. It’s a story of true love conquers all that manages to be touching, heroic, inspiring, occasionally silly, and funny. The casting was inspired (Billy Crystal as Miracle Max has gotta be my favorite), and the characters are unforgettable. This film is destined to be a classic. It’s the kind of experience I hope I can one day share with my grandkids.
If you haven't already seen it, watch it – I’d suggest with someone you love.

Major enhancement to in-game audio
on May 11, 2017
Posted by: GamerDad
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Astro Mixamp Pro TR was purchased to replace my Turtle Beach Ear Force DSS, which works fine for 7.1 surround but has hard-to-access controls and provides no chat capability on Xbox One. This Astro Mixamp Pro TR is very simple to connect and operate. It provides separate controls for game audio and chat volume levels, and I get talkback in the headset so that I’m not yelling at teammates.
I originally purchased it with the Astro A40 TR headset; it sounded good. Not great. Good.
I plugged in my HyperX CloudX headset to this Astro Mixamp Pro TR. It sounded significantly better and was much more comfortable. The difference was night and day. Thanks to Best Buy’s great return policy, I was able to return the headset/mixamp combo and simply buy the Astro Mixamp Pro TR to use with my existing headset. To my ears, it’s an excellent combination.
The Mixamp sounds good right out of the box, but if you connect your Astro Mixamp Pro TR to your PC, you can create custom EQ settings and assign them to one of four profiles that get saved on the Astro Mixamp Pro TR. I tried tweaking the settings on my own but lack the patience or time to really get to know the controls. After exploring the astrogaming forums, I learned there’s an active community of users, and I simply downloaded some user-created EQ profiles. My advice is experiment with them. Try some out. You’re bound to find something you like.
Overall, I’m very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone.

Take grooming to the next level with this Panasonic nose, ear and hair trimmer. Its dual-edged stainless steel blades clip eyebrows and mustaches neatly, and it's completely immersible for use in the shower or at the sink. This portable Panasonic nose, ear and hair trimmer is battery-powered, so it's great for travel.

Best trimmer I've tried.

Over the years,I've tried 2 or 3 other makes and styles of trimmers; they all came up short. I'm glad I trusted the reviews on this one and gave it a try. It's by far the best, easiest to use trimmer I've used.

It's XBOX Live Gold - 'nuf said

My son and I have enjoyed Xbox Live Gold since 2008. It's nice to be able to just fire up the system and dive into multiplayer gaming without having to prearrange a LAN party.
I've never let the subscription lapse; that should tell you something about my perceived value of the service.

Nice vacuum, easy to maneuver
on February 14, 2017
Posted by: GamerDad
Verified Purchase:Yes
The vacuum was unboxed and set up in about five minutes.
It is lightweight and easy to steer around & under furniture. The pivoting head makes cleaning around obstacles a breeze. The dedicated on/off switch for the powered beater brush is handy when you transition from carpet to solid-surface flooring.
The hand-held beater brush attachment for the extendable hose made doing the carpeted stairs relatively quick and painless, and I believe it will do a great job on the furniture.

I thought the LED headlights were just a gimmick, but they’re actually pretty useful when you want to be sure you got that crumb from under the kitchen cabinet edge.
This is our first Shark brand purchase, and we are so pleased with the choice I even recommended it to the in-laws.

A budget-minded powerhouse.

This GTX 1060 replaced my ASUS GTX 760. No regrets. I’ve played Skyrim Special Edition, Fallout 4, and the 2016 release of DOOM. All I can say is, “Wow!” 1080p, settings maxed, and it’s all buttery smooth. I have no hesitation recommending this card to anyone who’s cost conscious but wants to see what Nvidia’s Pascal GPU can do. My wife even noticed the difference.
I installed this card in an Intel i5 system circa 2010 (upgraded over the years with 16 GB RAM, 512 GB Samsung SSD + 2 TB Western Digital, and a 650W power supply).
