Panel Good, Speakers Bad

Pros: Great looking panel, bright and vibrant and sharp.
Cons: Speakers are a complete waste. The volume is not high enough be be audible. DO NOT buy this unless you have some other way of getting sound out of your PC beyond an occasional beep. I really wanted functional speakers on my monitor but should have looked elsewhere.
Overall Review: The speakers are so worthless, I feel a little cheated.
Avoid.

Pros: fairly stable and feature rich.
Cons: Shipped without a heatsink bracket. There was no way to mount a heatsink to the cpu. NewEgg would not RMA as bracket does not appear in photo, TYAN promised to send one ASAP, but never did. Both companies dropped the ball on this one.
Overall Review: Board is useless without a means to mount a heatsink to thte cpu. you will have to make or buy one separately. good luck!
REAL DEAL

Pros: This is a genuine Lenovo battery. Most of the ones I've seen prior to this are clearly fake/knock-off units that are not fully functional (ex: they don't correctly report their level of charge). Lenovo wants about $150 for this item, Newegg Sold me mine for less than $90. great price!
Cons: High capacity battery extends slightly past back of laptop.
Great Performance, not durability

Pros: This is the fastest router I have used. that includes dedicated single board computers. WOW! this thing flings bits like a demon. love the throughput and all the features in the GUI.
Cons: Mine is dead after 2 months. Power supply lights up, but no activity on the router. <SIGH>. Asus website is a nightmare to navigate. My router is under wireless, not networking. Chat must have been busy because i was 86th in the queue and the estimated wait was over 2 hours. totally worthless.
Not like a Model M

Pros: Much nicer than a membrane type keyboard. It is mechanically clicky Comes with USB and PS2 cable.
Cons: not very much pressure is required to depress a key. The plastic exterior seems a little flimsy.
Overall Review: Pales next to the mighty Model M feel wise. I came up in the world coding on those luscious keyboards, and have 2 in my stable. these were proposed as a modern substitute, but alas they fall short. It's an OK keyboard, not a great one.
Cheap and low Power

Pros: Cheap, Low Power, 6 Sata. This cries to be a NAS. With a properly specified power supply (300w 80+ bronze), I'm idling at 36w, and spinning 3 drives.
Cons: Unstable under BSD,Linux,and windows server. Linux/BSD support is weak for the all important onboard NIC.
Overall Review: On day 3 of trying to make this work. Unstable with either of 2 DIMMS purchased with it. A complete letdown.
