Bought the unit Christmas last year. Family has played it maybe 20-30 hours and now disc failure.
Ta Da! In to the shop for repairs. The cost is not outrageous just disappointed that for $500.00 bucks in unit and games
and accessories this is the disc life on this one.
I know it’s an inexpensive console but we’re not talking Xbox 360 either. Just a simple format player.
I’m just saying…

I have read my fair share of fantasy novels. As my best friend knows, who got me Twilight for my birthday. Just to put it out there, the book wasn’t bad over all, however, there were some annoying aspects.
To start with, the undeveloped character irritated me. I don’t want to place myself in the book. No, I want a character I can relate to from her struggles to her love and everything else in-between. I found it hard to even like her at points. Bella being dependent on men was another down fall to her personality. She doesn’t need to be a feminist, but some back bone would be nice because of how woman are more independent now. Second, Edward, oh, Edward, the author overly did the adjectives in this book. As a reader, I know he is good looking I do not want to be reminded time after time. To me, Edward is over controlling and reminds me of a story I’d see on lifetime about a girl and her overprotective boyfriend (In the end, the girl is killed).
In addition, I don’t believe in their love. It wasn’t real to me. I have never met a guy and within a few months knew he was the one for me. Even after a few years, I still questioned. The books connection to Romeo and Juliet is puzzling. I found the play a tragedy, but Twilight is hardly that.
Finally, guys loving Bella just to love her was over the top. No non-self-esteem teen has guys all over her. Guys notice that and don’t like it.
Overall, the book was captivating and interesting. I found some of the folktales to be wrong, which is disappointing. Especially, since in those folktales there were never vampires because that’s a European thing.
If you want a fun read, it’s a good book. However, if you are looking for more I’d find something else.

Great deal, great product. I do wish it still had Outlook. I didn’t use it for email, but I did use it for my address book and mail merge. I haven’t found a good alternative.

Our family adopted a bearded collie from a local shelter. Not knowing anything about the breed we found she needed extra grooming care. Beardies have a thick coat and undercoat that mats easily. After an initial $70 haircut, trying to keep up with just brushing, the FURminator was recommended to us. She will never need another $70 haircut again. Every 5 days we use this product on her coat and she looks newly groomed. I would recommend the FURminator to anyone with a dog long hair or short.
