best microsoft mouse
Pros: this is my second time buying this mouse. the first time i bought it was about 4 or 5 years ago. since the very first day i bought it, i have never had a single complaint. the only reason i bought this one was b/c my first mouse was starting to deteriorate from years of daily use (i.e. the rubber was starting to wear off in certain areas).
Cons: i don't understand why there aren't more 5-button optical mouses (mice?) like this one.
Overall Review: i hope they never discontinue this line. otherwise, i might have to stock up and buy a half-dozen to last me.
Pros: Worked great out of the box. Pretty well priced for 2TB drive
Cons: Died after less than 9 months of minimal use.
Overall Review: Based on the reviews, it seemed as though this had much less of a chance of crapping out than the competing brands' 2TB drives. I guess I just drew the short straw. I wish they could make a more reliable 2TB or 3TB drive
Pros: I've owned this ssd for over 3 months now and I am very happy with it. Although I only have SATA II ports on my motherboard, and I cannot fully take advantage of this drive's capabilities, it is still very fast. I'm running windows 7, and it used to take about 1 minutes and 55 seconds for me to boot up and get to google. Now that I have this ssd, it take me about 50 seconds. I can only imagine how much faster it would be if I upgraded my mb.
Cons: none
Overall Review: can't wait until 2TB ssd drives are cheap and commonly used
A Great Deal
Pros: Great buy, especially for the price. This is an upgrade from a 2.4gHz Northwood Pentium 4. Wow, what a difference! Combined with a large RAM upgrade, my machine is lightning quick. I haven't attempted any overclocking yet, but I'm sure it will be fun...
Cons: cpu fan didn't come with any thermal paste. Luckily I bought paste on my own. Also, I chose to buy the "ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro" to place on top of my chip. It's the perfect addition for this chip IMO.
Overall Review: NewEgg rocks. cheap and quickly delivered
Awesome Drive
Pros: Very Cheap. Very Fast. Pretty Quiet. Nice upgrade from my last DVD burner.
Cons: Packaging was kinda whack. Delivered wrapped in bubble wrap and tape (no box). No biggie though...
Overall Review: NewEgg delivered with lightning speed
Major upgrade from IDE
Pros: Can't beat the price for a 640GB drive. This is my first time using a SATA drive and the difference is unbelievable. It took about 2.5 hours to transfer all of my information from my old hard drive to an external backup drive. Then, when I transferred the information from the external drive to this drive, it took just under 30 minutes!
Cons: none. This is my 5th Seagate hard drive. I don't think I will ever buy from a different manufacturer.
Overall Review: Seagate is great. NewEgg is great. Order was placed at 9pm and was delivered to my doorstep 43 hours later.
