Warren1... i dont know what you did..but i tryed AION, and WOW both.....
both run smooth, wow on max runs great.
aion is little laggy on max, but if you set screen to 1280x800 on max its playable
on whatever default settings are for the game runs with no lag, and looks good....one thing ..game sucks :), looks great but gameplay...boring.
games that i ran and had no lags.
Battlefield 2 - max settings on 1600x900
Call of Duty 4 - med on 1600x900, max on 1280x800
WOW - max
AION - whatever it set on
Fallen Earth - high on 1280x800
mmos like rappels on max..tryed 5 of them....runs great
i believe it will run any game if it supports windows 7... i was thinking about putting xp on it after my 14 day return period ends..it will own even more, cause windows 7 takes too much racecourses in compare to xp

The Time Capsules are beginning to garner a lot of attention for failing power supplies in the 18 month time frame. Your TC will work fine one minute and then be dead as can be the next. Some folks have talked about signs and frustration troubleshooting the impending doom, but most just discover their TC dead.
Apple will replace your TC if you have a computer and Applecare, but you don't get the data on the drive, thus negating the time you've spent backing up. One person mentioned having their entire iTunes library on the drive with no recourse or way to save the information.
I expected a lot more from an Apple product when they claim to have "server grade" components. Pretty hard to take when the laptop outlasts the backup device.
There has been talk of improvements to certain aspects, but no real change in the area of the power supply that's causing the problems. As you can see from the other ratings here - it does run hot, and the end result will be a failed

I purchased this all-in-one printer for the growing needs of my home office. So far I think it's a great product for the price. It's wireless networking feature is easy to set up and very convenient for my business and personal use. All of its other features are a definite bonus. It's a great buy.

The only problem I had with this printer is that the fax would pick up, even after we answered the phone in a couple of rings, and it would pick up before our answering machine had a chance to answer. It took a bit of research and playing around with the 'voice priority' vs. 'fax priority' setting, as well as various # of rings settings, before I got past these. And I'm an I.T. pro by trade - I imagine the frustration might be greater if you're not so technically inclined.
Other than that, it says what it does, and it does what it says!

This is Best Buy's top of the line gaming pc. Unfortunately, it falls short of being the ultimate gaming pc.
It has a great processor and lots of ram to spare. The nvidia graphics card on its surface looks like it should handle anything you throw at it. That is not the case - Crysis can really only be played on high settings. For the latest top of the line PC I really expected it to be able to handle anything I threw at it.
The biggest strong point is the machine's effortless ability to handle heavy multi-tasking. There is plenty of power to run multiple data intensive programs at a time.
I was really dissapointed to find that the HDMI out that is advertised is actually achieved by using one of the DVI ports with an included converter. Best Buy needs to update its profile because this DOES NOT have a built in HDMI output. On top of that I would be willing to wager since you use a converter the audio will not be carried via the HDMI cable. This sucks because I

Nice machine. I love the way it looks. Everything feels very solid. The notebook runs fast and cool. The display is great. The sound is a little weak (not much volume). Battery life could be better.
My only issue is with the HDMI drivers. I spoke to Sony Support at length and currently the HDMI drivers with BluRay will not support or play dolby sound when connected to your TV. It does provide 1080p resolution on your TV but no sound through the HDMI. You can utilize the headphone jack and output sound that way. Hopefully, Sony releases a fix for this. My main reason for purchasing this notebook over others was because of BluRay and HDMI ability.
If BluRay is important to you, don't buy this machine yet. If it's not important, I'd recommend it.

Overall I was impressed by this laptop. For 329.99, you get a powerhouse; the Celeron processor doesn't lag behind a bit. This is a great value for any techie on a budget. This laptop is FAST. Beleive it or not, with 2GB ram and Windows 7, you will be flying around the Aero desktop.
I highly recommend this computer

I did research on all the new Windows 7 laptops that came out recently from Bestbuy, Walmart, and local computer stores in my area! You can't beat the price tag on this Gateway! It gives you tons of juice for $599.99! Computers from other brands with similar specs run you around $999.99 so a $400.00 savings is a "NO BRAINER"! I've had it now for about 10 days and am really impressed with its performance! Having the HDMI output makes it awesome to hook up to my 52 Inch tv and watch streaming videos in HD on Graboid and Netflix! Storage is great and 17 inch screen is beautiful! BUY IT you will not regret it this Laptop is truly a BEAST!!!

The new Sony Vaio is a smart, clean looking laptop. Easy to use with larger keys on keyboard.. bigger than my old desk top computer. HDMI output works great on my Phillips HD TV. Computer is very fast and quiet. No complaints so far.

I got this little drive to help switch from one laptop to another. I had a bunch of Best Buy Rewards Points, so I got it for about $60 which is an amazing price for it. For $110, it might be a little expensive, but the capacity is huge - 500GB.
I've only used it a few times because I only use it to transfer and back up files, but it is far faster (USB 2.0) than I expected it would be. It's easy to install and use - I just use it plug and play. It seems well built and it's supposed to be able to handle falls, but I'm in no hurry to test that feature.
It does have a 2 USB set-up cord, 1 is for the transfer and 1 is for power if your machine can't generate enough juice out of one USB port for it. Mostly though, you'll never use that second USB cord.
All in all, a decent price for a large capacity hard drive that is very small and portable, and fast. I like it.

I wish I could sit down with whomever designed these newer models and ask them why they thought these new micro usb connectors they went with was such a great idea to them. Like the majority of the complaints here have already said, the cables WILL NOT stay connected to the drives if you decide to move it the slightest. POORLY DESIGNED. AVOID THESE DRIVES.
I'm taking this back and exchanging it for something else with cables that will stay plugged in.

A breeze to install and the printer worked perfectly for six months. Two weeks ago, paper jams started to occur intermittantly. Followed all maintenance recommendations to try to solve the problem. Problem continued to get worse until a paper jam literally destroyed a small plastic part which has now rendered the printer completely inoperable. Now have to decide if it's worth the time and trouble to send the printer back to HP for repairs. Extremely disappointed with HP.

This set up very easily. I'm not using the fax, so I can't speak to that function, but the scanner, printer, and copier all work very well. Ink is always expensive for printers, but you can buy refillable cartridges online for this one that holds the cost down. I really like that you only replace the color that's low, not a whole cartridge just because you're out of blue. I got this on sale for $99 and it's a bargain at that price. If you're looking for a basic printer, and a scanner and copier would be nice, too, watch for a sale. Can't say how it prints for picture, envelopes or labels-- I see other people have had problems with those items. It's fine for light home office or personal use.

I order this printer to save money on ink and i heard the quality was excellant, I recieved my printer in 3 days for free no shipping cost, At first I thought here we go with all the hook up wires, we there's 2, printer power and usb cord, put in the cd and follow the instructions, and there you go it's that simple.
Now i get great prints of my Godson and Great Nephew. ThaNK YOU FOR HAVING THIS PRODUCT IT'S SAVING ME MONEY.

This case is a solid, sturdy, non flimsy case. This case has the the most solid feeling you can get, it features rubber feat and the case is made out of thick sturdy steal. It comes with 4 Antec 3-speed fans with controllers integrated in the front panel which work so smoothly and look cool while its at it. Now thats 45-50 dollars in fans that come with the case, that run silent or at there 2000 rpm pushing 50+ cfm no loader then my 10 inch house fan, which is great. You get thumb screws for everything, and the 200mm big boy 3 speed Antec pulls all the heat right out the top of the case. It has wire management holes threw the top rim, to the bottom of the power supply section that are very well placed out(wire management is starting to become common but is still very hard to find in allot of cases). It has compatibility with 120mm tall heat sinks for the cpu but at the cost of sometimes removing the 120mm side fan if you decide to slam one on the side panel for extra air flow. It can handle

Overall this is a great device, it feels great and I definitely love the ability to change the sensitivity of the mouse controls on the fly! It does have a great laser but the only draw back in fact is that it is wired. It would be great as a wireless mouse. I purchased it awaiting my ASUS gaming laptop which is backordered. I can not wait to play some FPS with this mouse. It also great that you can change the weight of the mouse with the extra 4 and 7 gram weights and also 2 interchangable grips.

I'm clueless when it comes to computers....and this was SIMPLE to set up. I have Comcast High Speed internet. I'm running a laptop and an Insignia Blue Ray player off the router and have no issues. I was shocked at the ease of this set up.....wonder why I waited as long as I did to go wireless.
