Great router. Couldn't be happier
Pros: This router has everything I need and then some.
Cons: I would prefer a "square box" design to the "aerodynamic" curves that are presently in vogue. And I wish the lights had textual labels. But then I wish I had a Ferrari too.
Too complex, yet missing basic features, and absolutely NO product support
Pros: Initial evaluation found it to be full-featured, fast, and using low disk space. However, this turned out to be a pipe dream.
Cons: It would take about ten pages to document all the flaws in this product. You can't rename a job after Acronis assigns a ludicrously complex name to it. If you manually delete a backup file, Acronis complains about it, and won't let you modify the job. If you try to add a backup file, it claims the file (that it just created) is locked or corrupt. If you try to contact "support", you are asked to login, but then it refuses your login because you didn't reply to a verification email that was never sent. The restore procedure is a (bad) joke. Although EaseUS Todo backup has its own flaws, and less features, the features it has work; so I'm going back to Todo. Now I understand why Newegg won't accept returns for this highly-defective product.
Overall Review: See above. I wouldn't recommend this to my worst enemy.
Terrible instructions. Can't get it to work properly
Pros: None. It doesn't work
Cons: The instructions assume you have a laptop with a wireless connection. I have desktop computers with ethernet connections, and wireless Roku television devices. The setup instructions do not support this basic configuration.

Why are the colors different than another LG monitor?
Pros: It performs well
Cons: None, but why are the colors different than another LG 24" monitor?
Overall Review: Overall I'm happy with the monitor.
Screw holes are misaligned!
Pros: It appears to work.
Cons: The screw holes for mounting are misaligned, so it took several hours to install.
Overall Review: I replaced a 500-Watt APEVIA ATX-CW500WP4 with this EVGA PSU. As it turns out, there is nothing wrong with the Apevia, but I installed the EVGA anyway. The EVGA screw holes are misaligned, and (since it takes three hands and a periscope to install) I wasted several hours installing it. I also prefer the Apevia's cabeling, but that is a minor issue, and one of personal preference.
It costs twice as much, but it works
Pros: It works
Cons: It costs twice as much as some of the competition
Overall Review: Earlier this year I purchased a Protonix card from JacobsParts. It worked fine for USB 2.0, but (as I recently discovered) didn't work at all for USB 3.0, despite the product description. This seems to be a common problem with the lower-priced cards, as can be seen by the other reviews. So I gambled that the Rosewill card would actually work --- and it does.
Disappointed
1) The mouse was an M100R, not M100 as advertised. I'm not sure what the difference would be. 2) The scroll-wheel sticks, making it useless 3) I requested a replacement on 11/07. Ten days later I'm still waiting.
Good product. Excellent communication

Another scam
The "reconditioned laptop" I received is not as described, and is defective, not "reconditioned". There is only 2GB of memory, not 3GB as in the listing. The CPU fan is inoperative, and pieces of broken plastic scattered throughout the interior of the laptop, which results in extremely high internal temperatures and extremely poor performance (apparently the CPU slows down when it overheats). Obviously this laptop wasn't tested before being sold, and probably did not go through ANY reconditioning.
