Great for the price
Pros: Processor is overclockable from the BIOS. Good keyboard form factor, function keys work without needing a driver. Runs Windows 7 RC perfectly.
Cons: Poor battery life (for a netbook) 3 - 4 hours of browsing on a 6-cell. Touchpad does not have scroll zones or a means of disabling tapping.
Overall Review: If you're going to install a 2GB RAM upgrade be sure to disable the onboard RAM first in the BIOS. The chassis has a Bluetooth LED and from some research I've done it's easy to find and install the module. Windows 7 runs like a dream. Overclocking is only in effect when the laptop is running on AC.
Crystal Clear
Pros: Easy setup, good reception, low power consumption
Cons: The Android app is appalling (not to mention not included).
Overall Review: I have this in my attic where the temperatures easily get over 35 (in the American West), still going strong. The device uses the MPEG2 codec so if you're like me and using a Raspberry Pi as an XBMC host, you'll need to purchase the appropriate license from them.
Cinch
Pros: Price
Cons: None
Overall Review: Easy as can be.
Wall o' Monitors
Pros: Price, and the ability to drive 6 monitors.
Cons: The card can drive two non-DisplayPort monitors using the included passive adapters, any subsequent DVI only monitors will require an active adapter. Less a con, and more of needing to do your research.
Overall Review: I wanted a way for my primary workstation to be able to drive 6 monitors. Not the greatest setup for gaming, but if you're a developer it's amazing. I have a setup that allows me to have simultaneous editing sessions for IDEs and their associated debug windows, a Hangouts window in full-screen for video conferencing, and a 42" LCD for videos. Using Debian 8 (Jessie) and XFCE, ATI's proprietary driver is quirky, but does the job. You can either create a massive virtual workspace (this does odd things to XFCE's panels), or have a seperate X session open for each and use Xinerama to allow movement of windows between them. I typically opt for the former.
Night and Day
Pros: Ridiculous speed, great price.
Cons: It makes me want more
Overall Review: Insanely fast boot time on Debian 8 (Jessie). 3 seconds from the GRUB to the login screen, and no measurable delay from password acceptance to the desktop (XFCE). I've been using BTRFS as my daily driver for a couple of years now and it performs admirably on an SSD. I'm probably being paranoid, but to reduce the reads and writes, I do have a seperate platter drive for swap and /tmp.
Pros: Price
Cons: Alignment is important. It charges my Nexus 4 relatively quickly, so long as it's exactly where it needs to be (in this case hanging 2cm off the charger).
Overall Review: I tried covering the LEDs with electric tape (they're very bright) and it affected the charging process negatively. The lights are quite bright but I've just gotten into the habit of laying my kindle over that end of the charger when I go to sleep at night.
