Rosewill RRC-126 - Windows Vista / 7  / 8 MCE Infrared Remote Control with Netflix Function
Rosewill RRC-126 - Windows Vista / 7 / 8 MCE Infrared Remote Control with Netflix Function

Pros: -Great replacement to a wireless keyboard with an HTPC -Out of the box most buttons do what they should in xbmc(I re-mapped some of the odd buttons to functions such as bringing up the context menu -the number buttons can actually function as a keyboard (works like texting with an old flip phone) -Buttons are perfect for my medium sized hands and seem to be for everyone else who uses the remote(s)

Cons: At no fault of the remote, sometimes coverage is a little spotty. You have to make sure you aim it in the right place. Thankfully I had a couple of extra long usb extension cables so I can get the IR receivers in exactly the right place .

Overall Review: I ordered two to use on two different openelec(xbmc) htpcs, one in the livingroom, one in the bedroom. They replaced a single wireless keyboard that traveled between rooms. Most buttons seem to do what I want them to do out of the box, the remaining buttons I used a remapper to remap the keys to do what I wanted them to do.

Was a great keyboard

Rosewill RK-8300 - Wired Gaming Keyboard - Anti-Ghosting, 5 Profile Settings, Adjustable Key Speed
Rosewill RK-8300 - Wired Gaming Keyboard - Anti-Ghosting, 5 Profile Settings, Adjustable Key Speed

Pros: What can I say? It's a keyboard. I replaced a laptop style keyboard with this because he started pulling keys out. this helped with that. was a good keyboard until it wasn't.

Cons: The keyboard has this feature where you can swap the WASD and arrow keys. Today that function quit working, but with it stuck on.

Overall Review: Purchased in November, not functioning correctly by February.

Great, if you're deaf

EVGA 896-P3-1255-AR GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card

Pros: Great card*, Its run everything, currently only the sims 3 and Gta:Sa Great. Definitely an upgrade from that old 7300gt I had.

Cons: *whenever I play the sims 3(or do anything that puts a load on it) its makes a very high pitched whining noise.

Overall Review: I have read that it's just what they do. Poor design on nvidia's fault, nothing to do with evga. I rma'd it anyways abd am hoping for something that doesn't whine and scream at me.
