Most Favorable Review

Good Product

ZEIKOS ZE-FLK58 58mm Professional MULTI-COATED Glass Filter Kit
ZEIKOS ZE-FLK58 58mm Professional MULTI-COATED Glass Filter Kit

Pros: Good quality, low price, nice case

Cons: Didn't fit my camera, shame on me. If you need for Nikon D3000, you need the 52mm product.

Most Critical Review

reluctant purchaser, don't expect rebate

Intuit Quicken Deluxe 2013
Intuit Quicken Deluxe 2013

Pros: now works with iPhone Good price

Cons: no Mac version Intuit won't honor rebate (excuse not a "participating retailer", conveniently there is no list of participating retailers.)

Overall Review: Had to buy as prior version's ability to perform online banking was expiring. I was really hoping for a native Mac version, Quicken is the only thing I use Fusion/Windows for anymore on my Mac.

Worth what I paid

Internet Security Complete 2015 5 Device 1 Year PC
Internet Security Complete 2015 5 Device 1 Year PC

Pros: It was free from Ally Bank

Cons: I don't really know if it is effectively blocking anything. I get a LOT of false positives when installing software. (Although they always say to stop AV software during an install, I haven't had to actually do that since the 90's!)

Overall Review: I don't think I'd pay for this, unless I knew it really did something. I am using it on a Mac, so my exposure and experience is likely different than a Windows user.

EDIMAX BR-6258n IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Nano Size Multi-purpose Travel Router/ Range Extender/ Universal Adapter, Small Size Easy To Carry, iQ-Setup for Hassel Free Installation, and Power Fed by PC/Laptop USB port Supported
EDIMAX BR-6258n IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Nano Size Multi-purpose Travel Router/ Range Extender/ Universal Adapter, Small Size Easy To Carry, iQ-Setup for Hassel Free Installation, and Power Fed by PC/Laptop USB port Supported

Pros: Did I say it was small?, USB powered orAC adapter, 802.21n, fantastic purchase @ $19.99. Last travel router I saw with n on newegg.com was ~$80. Great for iPod &iPad owners without 3G while traveling.

Cons: Doesn't have 5 GHz 'N', DST setting odd. Not having 5 GHz N isn't that big of a deal, but there isn't much to complain about. DST setting let's you set the month and day of change, but DST changes occur in certain week of month, not specific date (at least in US). Might be a problem for less than 1% of owners.

Overall Review: Bought to replace small router, with a big brick, that I use for travel. I wish I bought two, my wife has already claimed this one!

Crucial 2GB (2 x 1GB) 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) Dual Channel Kit Laptop Memory Model CT2KIT12864AC53E
Crucial 2GB (2 x 1GB) 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) Dual Channel Kit Laptop Memory Model CT2KIT12864AC53E

Pros: Has worked great, given my PC longer life

Cons: None

Overall Review: Used in an HP m7170n bought in 2005. I've added a new PNY nvidia video card and 2 GB RAM to extend its useful life. I added a HD for more space this year. I don't see a reason to buy a new PC unless I have to go beyond 3 GB of RAM. I do photo and minor video editing, but am not a gamer.

Transcend 8GB Secure Digital High-Capacity (SDHC) Flash Card Model TS8GSDHC6

Pros: Works good, great price

Cons: None

Overall Review: Shipped fast, use in a Nikon D3000 camera. Would love to get an Eye-Fi, but I can't justify the expense.
