Microsoft Xbox Wireless Adapter For Windows Steam Link

Great accessory for your microsoft xbox seies x/s.

Works well and is laid out similar to Microsoft Xbox controller.

Works all the same as the other Microsoft Xbox one controllers, but costs less

I kept having to reset the laptop wireless network adapter, after running updates etc nothing worked but this TP-link was an affordable and easy solution.

This wireless dual-band mini USB adapter was easy to install - just plug it in, and Windows 10 took care of the rest. Inexpensive way to upgrade an old laptop with the latest adapter protocols and increase its download and upload speeds.

This was my first personal VR headset. Overall I feel it's a good way to get into VR. The screen is nice, with no screen door effect, so it's easy to get immersed. The controllers work great, and hand tracking works well enough to be worth using. Comfort is a drawback of the Quest 2 that is fixable with additional purchases - the foam cushion that comes with this headset is not very comfortable on my face. I've ordered a silicone cover for it from a trusted retailer to compensate for this. It is nice to have the option to play VR without any cables. When using the official Link Cable to play Steam VR games, the mic does not work unless you open the Oculus Home and Steam VR apps, then Windows' built in Voice Recorder app and starting a recording, unplug the Link cable and plug it back in, and then it works. This is a hassle that will wear out the USB C port, and one that I am not alone in experiencing. If you can get over having to do that, I really think you'll like the Quest 2.

Only the true Microsoft Adapter will work, and who had it in stock? B&H :-)

This is the most beautiful Xbox One wireless control you can get out there. B&H offers the best price!

I use this to make system images on Win 7 Pro... before I do windows update (just to be safe, because, you know, microsoft).  Priced right and works for me.  Generally takes two of these to make a system image of my C: drive with 115 GB on it.  Good safety net.

When Microsoft banned computer hardware that didn't have the TPM chip and therefore would not run Windows 11, I said, That's it. Fool me once Microsoft. shame on you... What's to stop Microsoft from doing this again in the future? I began looking at alternatives and decided that running Windows 11 as a Virtual Machine (VM) inside a product called Parallels Desktop on a Mac was the way to go. I'm one who always assembled his own PC's and keeping my budget at $1000 for the box (no new monitor, keyboard, mouse, external devices) BUT, if I was going to run Windows 11 inside of my new Mac, the Mac had better be on the robust end of the spectrum. My former Macs have always had 8 to 16GB of RAM which was adequate for my usage. But since Windows 11 doesn't thrive until reaching 16GB, I decided that 32GB should be fine with this new Mac (it's perfect) Next, storage. VM's require a lot of storage space. I'm running a Windows 11 VM, Mac Sonoma (this is an additional Mac VM) and a Linux VM. My Mac now has 850GB free on a 2TB drive. Yes, get the 2TB storage! I have no storage insecurity which counts for a lot. Perhaps I'll try moving the VM's to external storage someday but I don't have resources for trying experiments now - using RAID arrays, etc. So now I have an expensive Mac (it's all relative, I know). I justify it by saying that I was going to have to buy my $1000 Windows box anyway plus I wanted the new Mac silicon. Installing Parallels Desktop and the Windows 11 VM is mostly an automated experience. Everything is fast.
