I wanted all of my April Fool's Day pranks to go off without a hitch this year, so I decided to practice them beforehand. I just needed an unsuspecting rube to try them out on -- some gullible sap who'd fall for every trick in the book, and was in no position to divorce me, fire me, disown me, arrest me or pound me into a thin bloody paste. The answer was obvious: ME.

Let me start by saying I have been lifting in gyms for about 30 years and even qualified for Nationals as bodybuilder when I was 27....I'm 43 now. Still going at it strong but wanted a home calf raise machine and an alternative to barbell squats. I've probably lifted on just about any and all commercial grade equipment out there. Here are my thoughts on this piece of equipment and why I only gave it 3 stars. I hope it helps.

Had this mattress for about 2 weeks now and have slept wonderfully. I think it's the perfect combination of a firm base combined with a soft and forgiving surface. Love the textured, cooling exterior of the mattress as well.

I have to use this program for my business and I don't have to upgrade every year, but it is cost effective for me to do it... For my payroll Intuit would like to charge me $450.00 annual to receive enhanced payroll... I can purchase this bundle and pay an additional 100-50 bucks and get the same thing... so for a lower price I can get an upgrade and enhanced payroll vs. the automatic renewal of just payroll. Besides that the software is great because it does much of the work for me.

Originally had 2010 version of this program which I had set up for an automatic back to a 3rd system hard drive. I ran in the background flawlessly, literally for years. Until the other day when I needed to recover an old image from and old laptop that I had backed with Acronis years ago. Found out then that my version had expired. No problem I thought, I'd liked the program and don't mind upgrading. That's when I began to hate Acronis. Turns out the 2010 version is particularly difficult to uninstall. Took me about two days because Acronis doesn't have an 800 number, or tech support chat, or really any customer service at all unless you're buying something. All there is, a customer forum where I finally found a solution. In this day and age I expect software to be able to uninstall older versions, I think that's a reasonable expectation. And not to have to perform an exhaustive google search.
