  Setting up a home entertainment centre doesn’t have to be overwhelming. The first step is to find the perfect home theatre projector for your set-up. Best Buy has many projectors to choose from and you can find reviews on specific models in our Plug-in blog. This time around I’ve decided to let the ratings speak for themselves and have gathered a list of the five top projectors based on customer feedback and reviews.

Hopefully you’re enjoying the summer of your life right now, taking every opportunity to get outside and soak up these long, sun-filled days. You’ve probably noticed though that the back-to-school ads have already started, which means it’ll pretty soon be time to start gearing up for the new school year.  Best Buy even carries a number of devices that can help you to stay in touch with friends and loved ones, and today we’re going to take a look at some of those.

Last week, I wrote about how ergonomically designed office chairs are essential to rear-end comfort and back health. However, even the most fabulous, most space-aged, most comfortable chair in the world means nothing if you’re sitting in front of a desk that is made from a sheet of plywood and two milk crates. So, with that in mind, I thought I’d write a follow up post that highlights some great desk options available at Best Buy.  But first, let’s quickly define what makes a “great desk” and why having one in your work or home office can actually increase productivity. 

Whether you have a iPad Air or iPad mini you’ll want to keep it safe. Lifeproof now offers two new covers to protect your Air device.   Both promise to make your iPad and mini iPad waterproof, dirt proof, snow proof and shockproof.  That’s a lot of protection. We tested both lines to see what were their differences and whether they delivered on their protection.

The only thing you can guarantee about summer is that it will fly by and back to school will be upon us all before we know it. This is the year to get a jump on your shopping by scoring some of the best picks for your kid’s backpack.

We all have memories of the first video games, and first systems we played.  Where did you begin?  The Evolution of Gaming exhibit at the Centre for Digital Media in Vancouver rehashed many of those old memories, flashing us back to times before some of us were even born, and then into some crucial eras of gaming, like the crash of 1983, and the explosion of the NES in North America.  Then, they flashed us forward and gave us a sneak peek at how gaming might look in just a few short months and years.  Click below to read more and find out just how much things have evolved over the past couple decades.

The RX100 is a high-end point-and-shoot, offering excellent image quality in a small package. It has gained loads of fans and garnered lots of praise for packing enough features to satisfy the most demanding of shooters into the smallest possible space.   Today I’m going to take an in-depth look at this pocket rocket, and tell you about the two killer features of the RX100 that really set it apart from the rest.
