THE KING OF KEYBOARDS
Pros: Speak Softly and Carry a Big Stick! This Bad Boy is Awesome! I love the look and feel of this keyboard, I am amazed at how well crafted Microsoft's Hardware Division Designs products, Bill Gates should have gotten out of the software business and into the hardware business. The speed, precision, red lights at night and keys rock!
Cons: none
Overall Review: Another Perfect Precision Product to Purchase! Well worth the value! I would be willing to pay $100.00 for this keyboard, wired or wireless! Just click "add to cart" you will be glad you did!
KEEP IT IN YOUR CAR
Pros: Not Bad, Not Great. Its an OK solution and better then most purchase for 90% of the choices on the current marketplace. I have experimented with countless cables to connect my iPod player to the auxiliary port on my cars CD player and so far so good. I gave it three eggs because I consider this product average at best based on look, feel, quality and price. Its sad that I could design a better cable the Monster if given the opportunity, because this one is average and Average Sucks!
Cons: The cable length is too long for automobile auxiliary use, it should be 6" shorter or 2 feet tops, I don't like the way the cable feels, specifically the metal clips and fasteners might look shiny and pretty but are not well engineered in respect to design and material selection. The packing is nice, but the materials used to manufacture the cable feel cheap and slightly flimsy, it does not feel precision made or communicate quality or craftsmanship. Naturally as a result I am very disappointed as a consumer that Monster decided to cut corners on their entire product line. I have a much older Monster cable that has a very thick look and feel to it, the grip is stout and the plastic rubber molding grip feels great to the touch every time you plug or un-plug the cable. I wish Monster would go back to their roots and raise their standards because they Dominated the marketplace in the 1990's
Overall Review: I wish Monster would get its act together, their reputation is slipping because the quality of their products are not the same as they used to be. Monster used to dominate the market place and at the time could command a higher price for their premium cables, today you are luck if their product works adequately. I am very disappointed with New Egg for not offering a better selection on all of their audio cables or that Monster is no longer Dominating the Audiophile industry because they have lowered their standards and its a darn shame.
WEAK
Pros: Great Hockey Puck!
Cons: This processor is pathetic, its very weak, my first time with AMD and probably the last. I'm not looking to game, I just wanted basic internet, web browser, e-mail, downloads, you tube, type of processing power and this proc disappointed me on all levels, its very slow even with a SSD and clean install of Windows 7 with 24 GB RAM DD3
Overall Review: Stick with Intel, 4 cores is just not enough power for today's computers, quad core was great 5-7 years ago with Windows XP, if you are using Windows 7 or newer you need at least 6 to 8 cores or more, seriously!
A PRECISION INSTRUMENT
Pros: This Mouse Rocks! Yes, its a bit pricey but like all things in life you get what you pay for. Sometimes you just have to spoil your self and say what they heck, a Benjamin for peace of mind is worth it considering that most people use a mouse every day and never think about what it would be like to experience luxury computing with precision clicking. If you are a graphics designer professional then this mouse is for you because you can customize the software to do what ever you want it to do, plus its great for gaming, the battery can be replaced if and when it can no longer hold a charge from the USB cable and what I love most about this mouse is the look and feel. Logitech is a great company, every product I have every purchased from them has always impressed me. This product was so well designed that I actually hated it at first because I did not understand how to operate it correctly and that was my fault, its a mouse that is designed not to be moved much, so less energy, less movements, less stress, less fatigue on your overall computing experience. Once you switch from an average mouse to a precision mouse everything else just sucks. You will never ever want to go back and over the course of time your hand will begin to mold into this perfectly sculpted masterpiece. Once you learn how to hold it and move it correctly you will fall in love just as I have learned how to operate it correctly. Initially I was very disappointed, but that's because I had the wrong expectations of what I thought it was, how it should operate and how it should feel. If and when you purchase this product you will begin to appreciate its architecture and in life everything comes down to structure! Well worth the Ferrari Sports Car Precision Instrument Gear Shifting Performance Price!
Cons: none
Overall Review: It takes some time getting use to, but once you get the hang of it the previous mouse you used to have will start to feel awkward and before you realize it, what used to feel normal and comfortable will feel different and that's what happened to me out of the box I did not understand that this mouse was hand crafted as a a precision instrument designed to be operated with the least amount of energy for the most amount of effectiveness. Thus its a learning curve, so keep using it and practice with it every day, in about a week or month you will ask yourself, gosh how did I every get along with out because everything else sucks and this mouse rocks. I used to hate it because it felt different but now I love it! When you start to measure millimeters you start to appreciate this mouse because everything is so close together that it either feels terrible after you unbox at first, yet give this one some time to get used to and it will fit you like a glove!
CLASSIC 80'S NOSTALGIA
Pros: I love the simplicity of this wrist watch, I purchased this with the intention of using it as a tool, not to make a fashion statement. Its very accurate, I love the fact its very small and light weight on your wrist, excellent water resistance when washing dishes or watering plants. I love this watch, its beeps every hour on the hour to remind you to stay focused or get back to work. Setting the alarm is fun and easy to do. I love the fact that you could skip the owners manual and figure out hot to operate it by pressing all of the three buttons and in a few minutes master the navigation panel. Its very easy to learn how to operate just by pressing all of the buttons and it brings back childhood memories of growing up in the 1980's
Cons: I wish the light was brighter or illuminated on both corners of the LCD, its hard to see at night because the light is very dim and only illuminates in the upper left corner and its hard to take off or remove because the latch secures its self so darn well you could go skydiving with it and not even worry about losing it. If you have a wrist larger then 6" six inches in diameter its going to pinch your skin or feel too tight so for those of you with big hands with giant wrists you might consider passing on this one, but 5" or smaller and its a perfect fit.
Overall Review: For the cost of a Hamilton its worth the ten bucks. I love the fact that its a very simple watch, its clean LCD displays date, time, hour, minute and seconds in real time, great product and I plan to purchase another one to have as a spare backup just in case they discontinue this classic model. The stop clock feature is a great bonus as well. I wish it could sync with my smart phone to bring back the retro 80's look with a modern 21st century high tech twist. Just click "add to cart" you will be glad you did!
is 20 degrees centigrade cool enough?
Pros: FROST BITE! WOW, this product will keep your unit cool, its sick copper based materials dissipate heat with perfect precision and it looks so cool with a blue light in a clear cover case front panel screen. I love ZALMAN based products, they work great, simple to install and are true quality. Just click "add to cart" you will be glad you did!
Cons: none
Overall Review: Personally I hate mail in rebates, they are not worth my time and I just ignore them, buy this product for what it is not because of price, don't worry if you pay retail because the cost of copper will go up in price over time as its an extremely valuable material that can be melted down and reused so its kind of like buying gold. Yet over the course of time you could hallucinate by pretending that you are copper fairy who sneaks into old computer cases in the middle of the night to remove the copper base and take it down to the local scrap yard to sell the material for a profit! By the way, I wish companies would stop offering mail in rebates, postage is expensive and time can not be replaced. If corporations want to offer consumers an incentive to buy, just keep the price low or offer an instant rebate or promo code, good grief I hate mail in rebates with a passion and refuse to participate because time is not money. When installing I tend to skip the control knob accessory, seriously how often are you going to adjust fan speed? Regardless this is a great product! Better than liquid cooling because it does not leak and based on my twenty year experience I have yet to see any other competitor out last this brand. I still have a 15 year old model running to this day. ZALMAN ROCKS!!!
