Good TV for the bedroom

Samsung 32" Class ( 31.5" Diag.) 720p 60Hz LED TV UN32EH4003F
Samsung 32" Class ( 31.5" Diag.) 720p 60Hz LED TV UN32EH4003F

Pros: Easy to setup, good color, any device plugged into the HDMI ports like a DVD player or computer meets all of my requirements. I also like the fact it has a 3 hour sleep timer, many TV's in this price range do not

Cons: Sound has a slight tinny response, other than that this is a great little TV.

Overall Review: Purchased this TV to replace a 27" RCA CRT TV from 1998. The 720 P picture looks good on the Samsung but due to the fact my signal is provided by a Time Warner analog box by scientific Atlanta with a 480P signal. The picture can look a bit ragged but was never noticed on a CRT TV.

Most Critical Review

System Improvements but short life

MICRONET GFP3000EU3 3TB PROFESSIONAL USB 3 ESATA
MICRONET GFP3000EU3 3TB PROFESSIONAL USB 3 ESATA

Pros: This was purchased to combine several external drives into a single drive and having the transfer rate of USB 3.0.<br>I divided the drive into 3 equal partitions, then moved all of the files from the older external drives. I also kept one partitioned section as the back up with an image for a full recovery should it be needed

Cons: I dropped the rating down from 5 eggs to 3. This drive did not last 2 years. Each partition did have to be set and formatted separately.<br>This was no big deal, as it only took about a total of ten minute's total. I have a external drive I built 3 years ago and it is working better than this Fantom drive did.

Overall Review: Now that this drive is dead and no longer in warranty I will attempt to retrieve my data I had been contemplating getting the parts and building an external storage like this, but I found this to be a much better value at the time as this was just plug and play. I have had good experience in the past with Fantom drive products. From know on I will build my own external drives. This way I can maximize the warranty on the components.

Nice sleak enclosure

Rosewill Armer RX308 USB 3.0 Full Aluminum 25mm 3.5" Enclosure with LED Indication
Rosewill Armer RX308 USB 3.0 Full Aluminum 25mm 3.5" Enclosure with LED Indication

Pros: I found this to be a nice extra for HP desk top I purchased from New Egg a wile back, I have a drive partitioned half for extra general files, the other half for system back up in the event of a crash. it was easy to assemble. Now this was not an expensive but it is serving my needs nicely.

Cons: The case was a bit tight when opening and reassembling

Overall Review: I would have liked the enclosure to have a fan but for the amount of time I use this drive it stays acceptably cool. If this was to get heavy use I would have purchased a different case. I did read in some other reviews that the drive was slipping out of the connector, I do recommend that all four mounting screws holding a 3.5" be used or have a proper adapter if 2.5" drives are used. I would not hesitate purchasing this product again should the need arise.

Looks to be a fair basic system

HP Desktop Computer ProDesk 600 G1 Small Form Factor SFF Intel Core i3 4th Gen 4130 3.40 GHz 8 GB 500 GB HDD DVD Windows 10 Home 2 Year Warranty
HP Desktop Computer ProDesk 600 G1 Small Form Factor SFF Intel Core i3 4th Gen 4130 3.40 GHz 8 GB 500 GB HDD DVD Windows 10 Home 2 Year Warranty

Pros: It is a reasonable system, I like the idea of a two year warranty. One other advantage it that this cost less than a single use OEM license. So what's not to like. After reviewing the cost to build a new system at all cost levels I have come to one conclusion, I am not a gamer, this is only for light office use, I have saved hundreds of dollars.

Cons: After activating it did a basic update. However windows version 1507 build 10240 was installed, and with that build no other updates could be installed.

Overall Review: Having a knowledge of windows I did update to version 1903, this is a requirement for smooth operation and security. Understanding the legalities of a recertified system and requirements by Microsoft to prevent reuse of system keys. I only gave this four Eggs because of OS update.

Pros: Just put in a battery, plugged in the USB dongle and away it went. very happy.

Cons: None

Overall Review: My Dell Laptop had a touchy finger pad so I thought it best to go with this mouse. I'll update if I see a problem.

This is a poor quality device

This device failed five days after arriving. To start with apron connecting the unit I found all of the menu listings were in French or Spanish taking two hours to find and then start in English. Next the internal clock would keep shifting after turning off and back on latter causing wrong shows to record when they would record, preventing any after the fact correction. That's ok if three shows several hours off would record stop and record again. After that debacle the video output just went black. So I ask you, are you willing to risk this happening to you? To add insult to injury, I had to pay for the return, and it cost one third the price of the to send it back, the only thing Circuit city did promptly was to issue an RMA number. So I ask you are you willing to risk all of these problems?
