Pros: I bought this mainly for the dual NIC ports. The i7 is overdoing it a bit, but, it's handling Virtualbox with pfSense/OpenVPN , WHS 2011 and OwnCloud along with Plex server from a USB HDD running natively in Windows 7. It's been great for playing around inside Virtualbox. I can say it's been running for three weeks now as my home router and I haven't had an issue since. pfSense has been running non stop and I haven't had an issue.

Cons: The cooling seems a bit substandard. I understand it's a T variant i7 and a mini PC format, but it seems to run warm regardless of load and BIOS fan settings. I'd prefer to have it run cooler, but the temp seems to hang around 150 on low loading and 170 under high loading.

Overall Review: I got this for less than 400 bucks. For that it's been great to be able to play with some new software in a package that's efficient. I find that it seems to draw 25-30 watts. I'm surprised with it's stability. I wanted to get a small PC but was concerned that with the form factor, repairs and replacement part availability are unlikely. If the cooling were better and I knew it was running solid for a few years this would be five stars.

I thought when I bought on Newegg I bought from newegg... my mistake.

I ordered this mouse because I already use one at work and wanted one for home to replace one that failed. It to 4 weeks to deliver. I ordered 2/20 and just signed for it today 3/22. I admit I should've looked closer but if I wanted to buy from a third party I would've tried a certain popular auction site. Funny note the email to provide this review showed up two days before the mouse.
