Whats interesting here is that Panasonic was not supposed to send tv's to North America anymore but Visions has this.

Expensive but may be best TV you can buy.

 

I got my LG from visions.   Just bought my mom a hisense from Costco for $700 all in (taxes, warranty etc). 55” and it’s damn well the same quality as mine. Great price 

The lower end brands really have closed the gap with the name brands in terms of quality.  

Windows 10 - 1809 once again available.

So, I ended up getting a Note 9. Got it for "free" through my corporate plan and they doubled my monthly data. It's going to cost me a bit more per month but overall, quite a reasonable rate on a new phone. 

 

It's much faster and nicer than my S7 Edge. So, far, I really like it. I'm getting used to the new size. 

In China, your car could be talking to the government.

I asked this on a pretty active board and no one replies so either Im just a simpleton or no one really knows.

Anyone use Final Cut Pro?  Im an avid Imovie user but I want more out of my video editing software.  Ease of use?  Will i love it?  Thoughts?

Would not Premiere Elements be next step? Also like a third the price.

Not used either but throwing that thought out there.

I have a macbook so...Final Cut is Apple's sofware.  Does Premiere work on Mac's?

Premiere is the everything package, PE is the cheaper one and yes to MacOS

I have a Chromecast audio and it's great for what I use it for. Too bad they're discontinuing it. I have seen them regularly on sale for $20 and have been for the past two months.

@FrostyWinnipeg did you ever get the Lonovo Smart Display?

I have not. Certainly not at the $250 that Staples is selling it for. For me my price point would be $100 but im in for a bargain.  It's really good sound and something like this feels like a radio killer in some ways.

I am thinking about it, too bad the 10" is not in Canada.

Yes, too bad. I might order one when I'm in the US. 

I was hoping to get a Google Max on clearance at Costco but I doubt I'll find one. 

I was going to get the Lenovo during the Black Friday sales but feared having to get a divorce if I did.

Maybe with this, apple will shake the networks out of their apathy.
