Brother MFC Series MFC-7840W MFC / All-In-One Up to 23 ppm Monochrome USB / Wi-Fi Laser Printer
Brother MFC Series MFC-7840W MFC / All-In-One Up to 23 ppm Monochrome USB / Wi-Fi Laser Printer

Pros: All around great printer for the home. We have about 4 desktop computers and a couple of laptops and this is much better than having one computer to print off of. Purchased this item last month at $219 with a $30 off special. You can't beat that price at all.

Cons: None as of yet. I have not used the scanner feature on this printer yet, but I hear it can be a bit tricky.

Overall Review: I wanted to purchase this printer earlier and I'm glad I waited because I saved enough to buy an extra drum and toner with about $20 leftover from the price then. Wireless set up is easy but it can be a pain if you do not know what you are doing.

Thermaltake CLW0211 Bigwater 760 Plus Dual Bay Drives Water Cooling Core i7 Compliant
Thermaltake CLW0211 Bigwater 760 Plus Dual Bay Drives Water Cooling Core i7 Compliant

Pros: None, do not buy

Cons: When I purchased this unit 2 years ago, I expected it to last more than that for the price. Apparently the pump failed and was leaking coolant for a while and I just thought having to refill it every 3 months was normal due to evaporation as I never owned a liquid cooling system like this one. I was wrong and this now sits as a $150 paperweight.

Overall Review: Their tech support for this device is really poor. I let them know of the problem and they told me to purchase a replacement pump for my device. I'm not going to shell out more money in hopes of fixing this peace of junk. This is the second Thermal Take device I have purchased in the past 3 years and both were junk. Avoid this device as the feedback now reflects how junky it is. Wish I would have had it there to listen to when I purchased this device.

Dead Island...Boarderlands with zombies

Dead Island Xbox 360 Game
Dead Island Xbox 360 Game

Pros: Great game to rent, not to buy.

Cons: I beat the game within 2 days. This is a rip off of Boarderlands. I had hoped for better game play or something but you pretty much kill zombies and do some quests. When you play thru once, you get to do the entire thing over. It's hard to see them adding new content after you get off the island unless the entire outside world is like this.

Overall Review: Rent this game for a few days vs buying. Unless you were a huge fan of Boarderlands, just watch the walkthru's on youtube and you got the jest of the game. Don't waste $60 on a game when MW3 and Halo are coming out in a couple months.

Pros: Great drive for the price. I purchased 4 of these over the past couple of years.

Cons: The only real con about this drive is the noise it makes. It is louder than my pc. This is why I took away 1 egg.

Overall Review: I do recomend these to friends and family.

Borderlands Xbox 360 Game 2K Games

Xbox 360 Game
Xbox 360 Game

Pros: Fun game, lots of weapons and missions. Running over skags is fun.

Cons: Game play gets old fast your first time through. You play through 2 times per character for levels and better weapons. Getting to 50 can be done within a weekend leaving you withing nothing to do when your there.

Overall Review: Lack of instances and other things to do after you hit 50 on top of getting randomly disconnected from multiplayer xbox live is very annoying. IMO save your money and buy a better game like COD MW2 or Halo. You will get bored after a week playing this game.
