Most Critical Review

Good as I expected for the price

RCA ANT111 Indoor Passive Antenna
RCA ANT111 Indoor Passive Antenna

Pros: Lightweight little antennae setup and it comes with a built in coax cable and setup was a breeze

Cons: The aerials are so feeble I actually broke one off at the stem while rotating it to a better position. The other broke while I was swaging the tube to make a repair and bumped it with my wrist. I then needed a second repair. Note they broke at the base where they rotate and they don't do that well. Be really gentle when making any adjustments to the aerials.

Overall Review: I may have gone with a more expensive design however I don't use this motel auction TV for more than watching DVD's through an inverter box. I only intended to pick up local broadcast channels but I also had to purchase a converter box. I would have tossed the old TV for a new digital one but the picture is exceptional. My final thoughts are who still uses these things anyway ... me? I do love the picture quality on this old TV and I paid ten dollars for it. Reason enough to try and resurrect it I think but the antennae choice could have been better.

Rosewill RV2-700 700 W ATX12V v2.3 / EPS12V SLI Ready Power Supply

Pros: Very noisy fan, but I had to take my case apart to isolate the noise because of two case fans and two board fans. Mine lasted well over the warranty period, but don't you expect a power supply to last well beyond the guaranty? well I was dissapointed in the supply but I bought it because I like Rosewill products as a whole.

Cons: Lower quality for a product that is essential to a computers component survival. I was disappointed but I got a bargain and I got what I paid for. Will cost a whole lot more than a replacement PSU now, bad decision on my part.

Overall Review: Wish I had gone with a more reputable maker of power supplies but that is no guaranty either. My wattage concerns should have exceeded 30% instead of 20% too!
