Works perfectly

Logitech Recertified 910-003095 M600 Black Touch Scroll USB RF Wireless Optical Mouse
Logitech Recertified 910-003095 M600 Black Touch Scroll USB RF Wireless Optical Mouse

Pros: - Cheap as dirt. - Windows 8 feature integration. - Customizable gestures

Cons: Only a minor problem... You have to get used to not resting your fingers on the mouse most of the time. Not a big deal though. It took me maybe a day to get used to this mouse.

Overall Review: I bought two initially. I, in fact, liked it so much and is so convenient for me to use, I bought 2 more. Only problem I had then was which one goes to which machine. Easily solved with a dot of nail polish on the mouse and wireless fob.

Most Critical Review

Completely worthless!

Acer DA220HQL (UM.WD0AA.A01) All in One Multi Touch Android Computer ARM Cortex-A9 Dual Core 1.0Ghz 1GB RAM 8GB Internal Storage 21.5” HD 2-Point Multi Touch Display Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
Acer DA220HQL (UM.WD0AA.A01) All in One Multi Touch Android Computer ARM Cortex-A9 Dual Core 1.0Ghz 1GB RAM 8GB Internal Storage 21.5” HD 2-Point Multi Touch Display Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich

Pros: Fast shipping

Cons: Everything. Touch screen never worked. Well.. it works every once in a while, but so intermittently and randomly that it registers touches even when it's not being touched. Thus moving the pointer completely away from whatever it's over at the time. So, I can't even use it with the mouse and keyboard. Can't use it as a monitor only. I can't access any of the monitor settings without the touch screen functionality. Also, putting it next to *any* other monitor shows how dull and lifeless the LCD is. I was unable to return the item as I bought it as a gift, and by the time it was opened, the limited warranty had run out already.

Overall Review: This was for my fiancee who loves to cook, and we were going to mount it in the kitchen so she could have something to use for recipes, with a touchscreen that would wipe clean after cooking or baking. I'm extraordinarily disappointed in the quality and find it hard to believe that any company these days would sell something "factory" refurbished that doesn't work. Great idea. Awful company. I will never buy anything Acer again and I highly recommend nobody else does either. I buy a ton of hardware for myself, friends and my software development company. Acer fails.

Wish I'd bought a few more at the price.

Rosewill R-Studio MINI RUBIC-RED - Portable Bluetooth Speaker with NFC and Handsfree Mic
Rosewill R-Studio MINI RUBIC-RED - Portable Bluetooth Speaker with NFC and Handsfree Mic

Pros: - Great overall sound - Good bass - Easy to Pair - Cheap - Very little interference while plugged in for power/charging and simultaneous bluetooth playback. - Loud enough to fill all a room with decent sound, without distortion.

Cons: - MicroUSB is the only way to power/charge. (Standard for all similar devices)

Overall Review: Bought this through Newegg Flash, at a very discounted price. I wish I'd bought another one or two for around the house. The only thing that bugs me is all of the devices like this have microUSB as the only power source for charging, etc. I know that the microUSB connector will probably be the only point of failure on this eventually. For the price, this is definitely way better than the other 10 or so similar devices I have bought over the last 2 years. Better overall quality of sound, and extra clear speakerphone.

Great for the price

ASUS VivoTab RT TF600T - NVIDIA Tegra 3 Quad Core, 2GB DDR3 32GB Flash Storage  10.1" Windows 8 RT Tablet - Gray (TF600TL-B1-GR)
ASUS VivoTab RT TF600T - NVIDIA Tegra 3 Quad Core, 2GB DDR3 32GB Flash Storage 10.1" Windows 8 RT Tablet - Gray (TF600TL-B1-GR)

Pros: - Extraordinarily quick, like a tablet should be. - Fantastic price and came with a keyboard dock, that contains a second battery. - I don't think it was mentioned, but the one I received was the ATT LTE model, so I can put it on my data plan... if I wanted to be bled dry for data rates.

Cons: - Asus software wasn't installed for the touchpad or Supernote. It only took a second to go to the store and download them.. - Non-existent manual. I had to look up online to figure out what it actually has on it for hardware. Even the PDF manual you get from ASUS is garbage.

Overall Review: It's exactly what I thought I would get, and I was able to buy a few for my development team, since it looks like RT won't be disappearing. All of the *apps* that are available for Windows 8.1 Desktop are available due to them all using WinRT. If you're complaining there aren't any apps at this point, you're not looking. They may not all be great, but the ecosystem is coming along.

ASUS VE278Q 27" Full HD 1920 x 1080 HDMI VGA DisplayPort DVI-D Built-in Speakers HDMI LED Backlight LCD Monitor
ASUS VE278Q 27" Full HD 1920 x 1080 HDMI VGA DisplayPort DVI-D Built-in Speakers HDMI LED Backlight LCD Monitor

Pros: Solid Monitor for the price. Fast response time. It's not like I'm going to take the time to make sure it has a 2ms response time, but I believe it's probably the best 27" monitor I've purchased up until now.

Cons: So far, there haven't been any cons. It was exactly the product I expected it to be.

Overall Review: I bought this monitor along with a 27" Acer and 2 27" Samsungs. The Newegg prices were so good for Black Friday this year, I went kinda nuts. Anyway, the Asus definitely holds it's own with the Samsungs. I wouldn't hesitate to use this monitor to do color correction on for a movie or even do print work on. I don't game, but I'm sure this monitor would be a great addition to any gamer's rig.

Spectacular

Acer X233Hbid Black 23" 5ms HDMI Full 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 40000:1 (ACM)
Acer X233Hbid Black 23" 5ms HDMI Full 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 40000:1 (ACM)

Pros: Received the 3 I ordered next day. I looked at them all. No dead pixels, great vibrant color, and HDMI. I don't think I could be the quality for the price.

Cons: A little rough to color calibrate. I do video and graphics work, and it took about 10 minutes to properly calibrate the monitor.

Overall Review: I bought 3 of these and they looks so good I'm thinking of buying an extra two for TV in the kitchen and in the office. I haven't found any of the other issues in the review here, which I read thoroughly before purchasing. I suppose time will tell.
