Decent
Pros: -Good for basic computing and light use. -No problems of almost a year of daily use. -Good for what it is.
Cons: -Bloatware, lots of bloatware. I guess it has to be expected buying pre-manufactured computers, such as this; however, I deduct and egg for it. -It can't run Crysis or make breakfast
Overall Review: I bought this for my mom as a birthday present. It's pretty decent for what it is and what she uses it for. Basic computing, internet browsing, youtube etc. It's been reliable so far for almost a year, and she leaves it running all day so it's seen many hours of use. You'll have to go through and clean it of all of the pre-installed junk when you buy it, though.
Great fans
Pros: -High CFM, low noise. The amount of air these push and how quiet they are is pretty awesome. -I have two in a push-pull on my processor heat sink plugged into the four pin (with a splitter obviously) and the PWM works great. -Lowered average CPU temperature vs stock heatsink fans. -I have used these for a year now with no issues.
Cons: My only complaint is that the fans make a funny noise when in an updraft position. I have tried all 6 fans that I purchased and all of them make the same noise. It really isn't that big of a deal and the noise is almost unnoticeable, but I deduct an egg for it.
Overall Review: Overall, very nice fans. The orange looks really neat in my all black case too.
Pretty good!
Pros: -Covers my whole apartment with a full strength signal. -No connection drops experienced -Capabilities are good for the price -The directions, if you really needed them, are nicely explained and it comes with a nice installation program.
Cons: -Only 300Mbps total bandwidth, but for the price it's nothing to take an egg off for. -No problems after almost a year of use.
Overall Review: I bought this in 2011 during the black friday sale for cheap. I got this to go along with a laptop. Normally, I'd have bought something with higher bandwidth capabilities, but it's only one laptop and lightly used and I keep my computer hardwired so it's not that big of a deal. I'd say it's good for what it is and decent for the price.
Works
Pros: -Nice cord and length. -Completely adjustable wrist strap. -Aligator clip stays where you put it.
Cons: Can't think of anything.
Overall Review: The product does what it is supposed to do. I did not test it with a meter, but I haven't fried anything so I'm assuming it does correctly work.
Good for the price
Pros: -Great sounds, highs mids and lows all come in great. -Cord length, very long cord which is great. -Good soundstage. -Blocks out a good amount of noise without ruining the quality of the soundstage. -Comfortable after broken in.
Cons: -Cord feels flimsy. But, then again, that doesn't mean it IS flimsy.
Overall Review: It takes a little messing with, at least for me, to find a comfortable position to wear them. At first my ears would get sore right away, but now I can wear them for hours with no affect. I think it has to do with breaking them in, as well. Not sure why people are complaining about the base not being strong enough. If you like to appreciate music the way it's supposed to sound you will love these headphones and the tonal balance they have. If you want to ruin your hearing and the music with too much base, then buy a sub-woofer.
Pretty good
Pros: -Good range and signal reception. Got a full strength signal from a router on the other side of the building I live in, through 2 brick walls and 1 or two pieces of regular dry wall. -Magnet on the base. Gives you more options on placement if you have anything metal nearby. Just don't put the magnet next to your hard drive(s)!! -Price. Pretty cheap ($14.99) for what you get.
Cons: -Cord length. I realize the longer the cord is, the more signal strength you lose. However, it seems like they could have made it longer for more placement options.
Overall Review: Make sure you have the right connections for this. People seem to think it's some sort of USB device. It's not. It plugs into a regular antenna jack for internal wireless PCI cards. Also, if you aren't getting a strong signal, try positioning it in every way possible and keep testing your connection. It took me a while to find a spot within reach of the cord that gave me optimum signal strength. Don't just plug it in and set it down: experiment! The magnet on the base definitely gives you many more placement options.
