Pros: Cheap, excellent sound (through boosting microphone setting), very good picture. GNU\Linux kernel compatible, specifically Debian\Ubuntu. Skype Linux 2.1 works excellent.

Cons: Needs more additional work for Linux platform to add more options for Cheese and Camorama.

Overall Review: Longer USB cable would be the best for desktops that reside lower than monitor level. Or two interchangeable cables: short one for laptop, longer one for desktop.

Pros: Fast, the cpu and ram are really fast. Administration WebUI is neatly organized with good context help. One click automated firmware update. Hardware Revision v2

Cons: It was delivered by OnTrac to the front door of the entire apartment building; left near bushes. Even though intercom works.

Overall Review: Try to use non-led-blinking flash usb for ReadyShare feature, otherwise constant blinking, if you happen to see your router, will make your eyes twitch.

Pros: Simple and robust design.

Cons: For such a price - no cons.

Pros: Very good motherboard. Intel made drivers for Vista 32 and 64 bit.

Cons: Update BIOS first. Recommend big ATX case due to lack of space after installing two PCI-E video cards.

Overall Review: Zalman cooler (CNPS9700 LED)is big and quite, but it cannot cool north bridge metallic radiator. You may require to install additional small cooler fan on northbridge.
