Most Favorable Review

Great Product for the price

IOGEAR GPEN100C USB Digital Scribe
IOGEAR GPEN100C USB Digital Scribe

Pros: This device works very well. While in note mode it copies what you write almost exactly, you don't even have to look at the screen.

Cons: The maximum size paper you can use is something like 8 1/2 by 14. This isn't a big deal when using it to write notes but it's kind of annoying in mouse mode, because it scales the dimensions of the paper to the screen, making it hard to use with drawing apps like Paint. The software doesn't work with Mac OSX or Linux.

Overall Review: Overall, this product works exactly as advertised. It would be nice to be able to select a tablet size for the mouse mode so that the mouse motion copied exactly what you drew, but it's still a great deal for the price.

Most Critical Review

MSI's RMA process is unacceptable

Pros: I'm sure it's a great board if they ship you one that isn't broken.

Cons: The board I got didn't work. MSI's RMA process is ridiculous.

Overall Review: I got the board and it didn't work. I swapped out the RAM, CPU, VGA, and power-supply to make sure it was the board that was bad. I started the RMA process with MSI. They actually had the nerve to make me pay to ship their defective board back to them and told me I'd have to wait two weeks for a replacement. I want to return this because I'm going to buy a different brand and never purchase another MSI product. Seriously, I understand they most of their boards are fine but when one slips through their QA process it's wastes a lot of time for the person that decided to purchase their and they should at least try to pretend they care about their customers.
