Most Favorable Review

Great investment

ASUS Laptop G Series Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 4GB Memory 320GB HDD NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M 15.6" Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit G51Vx-X3A
ASUS Laptop G Series Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 4GB Memory 320GB HDD NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M 15.6" Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit G51Vx-X3A

Pros: powerful, especially for the money, amazing screen quality.

Cons: its a fingerprint magnet, and the pad where you lay your wrists is kinda uncomfortable. The border on the monitor is HUGE... almost an inch thick.

Overall Review: I would buy it again

Most Critical Review

I regretted this purchase

NVIDIA® SHIELD™ Controller (2015)
NVIDIA® SHIELD™ Controller (2015)

Pros: Solid construction, designed for android, long battery charge.

Cons: Games are not always designed specifically for this. for instance, was playing Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and it was nearly impossible with this controller. The lack of a start and options button killed my gameplay.

Overall Review: PS3 controllers would have definitely suited me better for my needs, although this is a well crafted device, a lot of it's features are not supported by games.

Girlfriend loves it

WACOM Bamboo Create Tablet
WACOM Bamboo Create Tablet

Pros: My girlfriend is trying to get into the art industry and this is a great learning tool. Large tablet, works great

Cons: I used the stylus and I wasn't a great fan of the feeling. My girlfriend loves the sense of realism though.

Overall Review: Would 100% suggest this tablet for any artist interested in the industry or is just generally interested in art.

wow >_<

Rosewill RX353-S BLK (Black) 3.5" SATA to USB & eSATA Ext. Enclosure w/Int.40mm fan
Rosewill RX353-S BLK (Black) 3.5" SATA to USB & eSATA Ext. Enclosure w/Int.40mm fan

Pros: Its pretty, on/off switch, esata port, fan, high transfer speeds (but then again, that is more inhibited by the hdd not so much the port since its usb 2 and esata)

Cons: Since i bought it I have noticed it randomly looses connection with computer (I use this on multiple computers, so i knew it was a problem with the enclosure), fan busted in a hurry without notice, dropped it a few days ago and the edges shattered (so now i have a new one on order

Overall Review: I did buy this second hand from a friend that bought this off newegg. however he keeps amazing care of his electronics (owned a razr for 2 years without a scratch on it anywhere) :P

Umm, let me explain

StarTech.com VID2VGATV Composite and S-Video to VGA Video Converter
StarTech.com VID2VGATV Composite and S-Video to VGA Video Converter

Pros: It Converts the picture. I got this for my Playstation 2 to go onto my desktop monitor since I sold my tower but kept the monitor. It does it o.k., picture would be much better on a standard TV though.

Cons: Expensive as hell... As i said before, its not as good of a picture as i thought it would be, it doesn't even meet the standard TV quality when it comes to my monitor (Native resolution for my monitor: 1680 x 1050)

Overall Review: If i wasnt leaving for the navy, and I was going to spend this much money on a converter, i would just get another TV, at least a TV would be sold easier. I just figure this would be good for the time being. The converter might look better with a PS3 or a 360, at least that is what I told myself when i put my credit card info on the order slip. Another thought: I wish newegg would support the DVI model instead of just the VGA one... DVI is so much more 1337

Very Nice Yes

SCEPTRE X20WG-Naga Black 20.1" 5ms (GTG) Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 1,000:1, US Warranty
SCEPTRE X20WG-Naga Black 20.1" 5ms (GTG) Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 1,000:1, US Warranty

Pros: Affordable, makes a great gift, pretty to look at, I haven't had any out of the ordinary technical issues with it, sturdy. ( The only technical issue I have had was that the screw in pins are a hassle to screw in, but that might be from my abnormally large hands.

Cons: No DVI cord, doesnt have S-video compatibilities, stands a bit wobbly but thats no problem with a good desk.

Overall Review: Couldn't really put out any pros that weren't already stated in the title :P, was but a mere inconvenience with the dvi cord, had to get one from the local electronics store.
