    ASUS Laptop X555DA-WS11 A10-8700P 8 GB, 1 TB HDD, $439.99 @Newegg

    This is $400 now at Newegg and Amazon. May be the regular price now. Is there a deal better than this?

    ASUS Laptop X555DA-WS11 A10-8700P 8 GB, 1 TB HDD, $439.99 @Newegg

    This was $399.99 on Amazon for the past few days, but went back up sometime today. I debated whether to buy it or not, not knowing how good a deal it was. Maybe if the screen were higher res. Also this says "The battery seems to be built into the system, so hard to replace" and it's only a 2...

    Networking help & modem/router suggestion

    Aren't you nice. I had read the thread a day or two earlier, but forgot it was mentioned. It must be nice ot have a photographic memory. BTW, there are a lot of bad reviews for the ASUS RT-AC56U. Yet the Archer C7 was voted best in a test of >20 routers.

    I didn't care about the Amped name. It just came up when searching for AC1750, and was marked down a lot. I have a BB GC. Was the ASUS RT-AC56 a refurb at woot too? Any idea about the TP LINK Archer C7? http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-wi-fi-router/

    Nexus 9 - Oct 15 - $399

    I, and family members, have a N7 (1st and 2nd gen) and haven't experienced any of what you described. Also I'm not sure how you can conclude that the N9 will be the same, considering it's completely different hardware (even if it was just the different CPU alone) made by a different...

    Has anyone else bought one recently and noticed the improved(?) screen that thebigbolgna did? Hopefully he didn't just get lucky.

    Mohu Leaf?

    I think you're referring to ABC. The channel I'm trying to get is NBC.

    Mohu Leaf?

    The channel is WSMV. I'm not sure where to find the frequency. They signals I care about are all within between 21 and 38 degrees apart. antennaweb.org says I need: "A Medium Directional Antenna is recommended to receive this station. Look for the CEA-certified Red mark on the antenna's...

    Mohu Leaf?

    I'm using amplified Philips antennas, but was looking for something better. I can't get one of the local big 3 channels, can't put the antennas up on the wall, and if I could get away from having an amplified antenna I have to turn off and on, that's another plus. Would I likely get more...
