Most Favorable Review

Hot water all the time.

TATUNG THWP-3L Electronic Hot Water Dispenser
TATUNG THWP-3L Electronic Hot Water Dispenser

Pros: This is a great hot water dispenser. We have it at work and people use it all day. The recycling time from fresh to hot doesn't take too long and we've been really enjoying it so far.

Cons: None so far.

Most Critical Review

Beware the size

G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Dual Channel Kit Laptop Memory Model F2-5300CL5D-4GBSK
G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Dual Channel Kit Laptop Memory Model F2-5300CL5D-4GBSK

Pros: It works.

Cons: The metal heat spreaders stopped it from being inserted into 3 different computers. If you are looking to put this into a laptop or iMac, or anything that has space constraints, be very very careful.

Overall Review: I'd get G.Skill again, just not the one with the head spreader. My fault for ordering it, but I'd thought that they would have made the spreader small enough that it would work in laptops and/or the iMac.

Worked like a charm

Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex Desk 3TB USB 2.0 Desktop External Hard Drive
Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex Desk 3TB USB 2.0 Desktop External Hard Drive

Pros: Works well on all my Mac's. I have also purchased the FW800 connector and it really improved the performance.

Cons: Wish the "Mac" model with FW800 didn't have such a premium, otherwise none.

Works well... nuf said

Logitech C910 USB 2.0 1080p HD Pro Webcam
Logitech C910 USB 2.0 1080p HD Pro Webcam

Pros: Very good quality video conferencing. Works with both Mac and Windows 7 w/o any problems.

Cons: It doesn't fit nicely on the top of the Dell 30" monitors, they are just a touch too deep.

Major Audio Dropout Problems

Pioneer VSX-1021-K 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver
Pioneer VSX-1021-K 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver

Pros: Good sound for the price. AirPlay Support. Good set of configurable inputs.

Cons: Continuous audio drop out issues with HDMI connection from HD TiVO. 1 out of five times I hit 30 second skip, replay or fast forward the audio drops out. I have to pause and start or hit replay again to get it working again. I tried numerous different HDMI cables, including 1 foot super high quality HDMI 1.4 cables and no luck. I called Pioneer support and they had nothing help. This is a huge pain and makes the unit almost unusable for us. I'd probably return it if I could get a refund. This could be the TiVo's fault, but I've tried it with other receivers w/o any problems. Also, it doesn't seem to pass audio via HDMI through to the TV. Sometimes I just want to use the TVs speakers and this doesn't allow for that.

Overall Review: Don't get this if you want to use it with a TiVo.
