Works like a champ

G.SKILL 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Memory for Apple Model FA-8500CL7D-8GBSQ

Pros: Popped off the bottom cover of my Mac Mini. Pulled out the old RAM. Popped in the new RAM. Runs like a champ on Mavericks. Long story: Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my ~2010 Mac Mini had been running a little like a dog. Since Apple made it almost impossible to downgrade to Lion, I figured I'd try the ~$75 solution of popping in more RAM vice the $600 of buying a new Mac Mini. Works so far.

Cons: None.

Pros: Setup was extremely easy, such that we were able to replace my parent's router over the phone in about 5 minutes. When I was able to get over and check it out, they hadn't missed any of the critical settings. Really extended the wireless range in their house (was replacing an 802.11.b router)

Cons: Only ding is that it's ugly.

Overall Review: Pretty happy with the experience overall. Newegg's delivery was timely and quick as always.

Great basic candybar phone

Pros: I've used one of these for over two years now, having gotten the first one through my carrier, and purchased a follow-on after a particularly nasty drop. The bluetooth works great, the audio is pretty decent, and if you need to swap SIM cards, it is easy and durable to do so. It charges over mini-USB, so that's one fewer cable to carry. It's also exceptionally thin

Cons: For a basic phone, there are very few. The calendar is a little clunky, and contact management isn't very easy.
