Want Dish in your home? They’ll install it free if you act now

One of the worst parts of signing up for cable or, to be honest, any new service is the part where you have to wait on the service installation. It can take hours and, even if you’re lucky enough to get it done on time, it is costly. But, if you act now, you can get Dish — one of the best live TV services — to come to your house and install your Dish and set up your receiver for free. That’s a savings of $200 over the usual charge. Tap the button below to check out how simple getting Dish is, and keep reading to see our take.

What to expect with free Dish installation

Waiting is the worst part of the installation game, of course, almost worse than paying. Once you’ve ordered the service, you can get it professionally installed for free as soon as tomorrow. But, it can almost ruin your day when a tech is set to arrive at any point over the course of 10+ hours. This is why, on the day of your technician’s scheduled visit, you’ll get a 75-minute arrival window so you can go about the rest of your day as planned. You’ll also get access to My Tech, which takes a page from services like Uber and Lyft to show you exactly where your tech is at on a GPS map. There’s no wondering if you’ll get a tech today and no wasting time calling support and waiting through the lines.

Please note that this free service is far from an installation and run. While at your home, your technician will analyze your property to find the optimal location for a Dish satellite to be installed, assemble and mount it, and then get your receiver set up and remotes connected to it. While the bulk of their job is on the hardware side of things, they’ll help you update your receiver and answer any questions your have about it while they’re there.

And this is just all of what is on the free installation service. If you’re willing to pay a bit extra (charges depend on work completed) your technician team can help you get your TV setup and home theater system wired and ready during the same visit at your Dish satellite and receiver installation. To get all of this, including the free installation (a value of $200) just tap the button below and get started building your Dish channel package.

This mini PC, and I do mean mini, has a Ryzen 7000 tucked inside for $200 off
Geekom A7 Mini PC with AMD Ryzen 7 for gaming showcased.

Computing, or small computing, has come a long way in recent years. Thanks to renewed interest in more manageable desktop sizes, even for PC gaming, we've seen a boon in the small PC world, namely with small form factor PCs (SFFPCs). For good reason, people are more interested in systems that take up less space, are more efficient, especially with energy usage, and can be placed in new areas, like their living rooms. There is now a whole category of small and mini PCs, and although they are bite-sized, they still pack a punch. Take Geekom's A7 Mini PC, which has an AMD Ryzen 7000 series tucked inside. That's no slouch on its own, but it also has 64GB of DDR5 RAM, WiFi 6E, and AMD Radeon graphics that supports up to four displays. All of that is packed inside an ultra-slim, space-saving case about the size of a book. Incredible. The top-tier model is currently $200 off, down to $649 instead of $849, when you use code digitaltrendsa7 at checkout. That code is valid in the US and the UK.

Amazon's Gaming Week celebration, if you're not familiar with it, is filled with deals and promotions for all types of gamers, from the avid streamer and competitive PC gamer to console aficionados and beyond. Razer's deals, specifically, are some of the best for PC gamers looking to upgrade their gaming setups for the latest titles. Take , for instance, that drops the price by $700 to $2,300.
