Read the Instructions First!

Pros: Excellent quality Excellent battery life Waterproof Very close shave (see review) Extremely easy on the skin
Cons: Would not recommend for DRY shaving! No speed demon
Overall Review: The first time I used this shaver (dry) I thought that I had just wasted my money. THEN, I read the instructions: Panasonic recommends using Shaving Cream for 30 days. After 2 weeks I am completely sold on this method. I have been using this method for 2 and a half months. Wet your face and use an amount of shaving cream the size of a cherry (not much). DO NOT rinse the shaver before or after you start shaving - unless you want a mess. Keep shaving until 99% of the shaving cream is gone. You are now done and you will have a shave as close as a blade and without irritation. Put some liquid soap on the shaver and let run for 20 sec. and rinse. Again - make sure that you don't add any water while shaving because it will cause friction on the skin. This is the part that Panasonic left out. If you are willing to try this, then you will probably love this shaver - as I do!
Quality control very poor!

Pros: Easy installation with MCE.
Cons: I have had to RMA this card 2 times so far and am going to allow some more time for them to fix their problems before I RMA it again. I am using the 3rd card now. All of them have the same problem - one of the tuners was much weaker than the other. Even the "good" tuner displays a poor picture compared to the TV tuner. One of the tuners on the 2nd card would not even display a picture at all! In all cases there is a zebra pattern running through the picture. I have tried several FM and notch filters and they do nothing.
Overall Review: I bought this dual tuner somewhere else because Newegg was sold out - about 5 months ago. I would not recommend this product to anyone after seeing what Hauppauge would let slip through their QC! This is the only product I have had to RMA in 4 years!

Pros: Flawless operation for 6 months - Best Looking Memory by far! Obviously - the looks have nothing to do with the performance - but it can't hurt either!
Cons: Price is sometimes higher than competition so look for sales. These look like they really put some effort into the design and quality. I have always been totally satisfied with GSkill in the past but these Adatas have an impressive good looks (that I like) besides high quality. The GSkills have a great durability record and I hope that these are also as durable.
Overall Review: These sticks just went on sale at Newegg again and I snapped up another set - and they were sold out in hours. Another plus - If you can't decide between all of the hundreds of GSkill models and specs - these Adatas will make your life a lot simpler too.
KillerX - Another ASRock Winner!

Pros: I bought a ASRock Z68 motherboard with a Sandy Bridge i5 2500K and GSkill Sniper Memory about 2 or 3 years ago and never had a hint of a problem with it. When I decided to upgrade another desktop I went with the same scenario - ASRock Killer X - Haswell i5 4690 and Sniper memory. The only problem that I ran into was that my CPU fan that I had planned to re-use would not fit the 1150 motherboard. While I was waiting for the new CPU fan from Newegg I actually read the motherboard manual - where I mentioned things like using ONLY the 2 USB 2.0 connectors until the 3.0 drivers are installed - after the board is operational. So don't use the blue USB connectors - unless you want trouble! Anyway, besides the awesome looks of these boards, the fact is that if they are installed properly, have the correct CPU and memory, they seem to work perfectly from the first time the switch is pushed and keep working.
Cons: Rebate started 2 days after I ordered it - but still a good price considering the competition.
Overall Review: Reading the manual or all of these reviews might keep a lot of people from writing bad reviews. If you like a lightning quick boot up - plan on using Windows 8.1 - something not really mentioned until you see the manual.
DRW-24F1ST DVD-Writer

Pros: Never had a problem with any of my ASUS DVD or Blu-Ray burners. I can't remember ever having a coaster from any of them either.
Cons: Nothing to complain about - even the price.
Overall Review: I have had very good luck with ASUS DVD + Blu-Ray burners and ASUS Routers.
WD 10EZEX 1 TB

Pros: Price - Single Platter - Quiet - Works Perfectly
Cons: They don't go On Sale often enough.
Overall Review: Will buy a couple more on the next sale. I had decided to only buy SSD's only a few months ago - but the price and quality of these changed my mind.
