Pros: Size for the price decent read speeds

Pros: very good airflow, removable filters on fans, lots of space for harddrives, built very sturdy and sound proofing is great. bottom line its very well thought out.

Cons: none really..

Overall Review: I wish there was a way to turn ON/OFF the power LED and there is no HDD act light

Good Deal - little temp control

Frigidaire FAX052P7A 5,000 Cooling Capacity (BTU) Window Air Conditioner
Frigidaire FAX052P7A 5,000 Cooling Capacity (BTU) Window Air Conditioner

Pros: Cheap, lightweight, easy install & it gives off cool air =)

Cons: Temperature Controls are awful. you have 1-7 for temp and it seems that 6 or 7 means cool/cold, where all the other ones me just fan. Also the airflow direction thing is rather useless, its either slightly left or slightly right, no up and down control

Overall Review: Overall its a good deal for the money and it works, installed in 5 min. It would be nice to have better control over the temperature and the airflow, but overall im happy with it

Tablet with a phone App

Nokia N900 Black Unlocked 3G GSM Smart Phone/ Mobile Computer With Maemo Operating System

Pros: Eventhough i had the phone preordered and was one of the first on the list, it took me forever to get it since Nokia's system kept flagging my orders, so i had to order it from the big rainforest retailer, got it in 3 days, just before Christmas =) so all was good. Since then i have never looked back. This phone is who I am. Its not comparable with the Ip*oney, its better. Its a full unix environment in which i can do anything i want. I have easyDebian installed, allowing me to use openOffice and GIMP and any other standard debian program. As noted before this is not the average phone, you cannot speak of Apps, but full programs this thing runs. Also full control over the system allows you things like emailing any file including mp3's, xvid-avi's and what ever else you may want to email. The interface is beautifully styled and very sleek, making it a pleasure to use and show off.

Cons: battery life isnt the greatest, but not awful processor is a little slow but that can be fixed with a the poweruser kernel
