Solid Card

Pros: Works fine, drivers installed easily, no problems. Windows XP SP3.
Cons: I have had no problems with this card.
Good mouse until it's not

Pros: I love this mouse's construction and feel. It's a very solid mouse for a while, assuming you're right handed. The placement and size of the buttons is perfect for my hand. I've owned several over the past few years. Support in Linux is good, aside from the tilt-wheel functionality, which I've never really been inclined to use anyway.
Cons: After a while the left and/or right button invariably stop clicking consistently (on every one I've had), meaning that a casual click will sometimes fail to register. The result is that you have to be more attentive to your clicks and click more firmly, which makes using this mouse very frustrating, especially for gaming. Eventually, clicks can become impossible without pressing very hard, sometimes repeatedly. Microsoft will replace these when they fail for free if you are still under warranty without question (I've gone through the process a few times), but since this is a chronic problem, I will probably not get one of these mice ever again.
Overall Review: If you can find a mouse that's got a similar design but fewer complaints of problems with the mouse buttons, you should probably go with that, unless spending about $30 per year is within your budget.
Good Board

Pros: Intel NIC, Intel SATA RAID with SATA III. eSATA ports are available to the RAID BIOS. Easy BIOS upgrade. UEFI support. Plenty of USB ports, with USB 3.0 ports. Board seems reliable and gave me no trouble at all.
Cons: If you have a large video card (I have a GTX 560 Ti), you might not be able to remove or add RAM without taking out the card. The red eSATA port (which functions as a regular internal SATA port) may also be partially blocked by the video card cooling box. A right angle SATA cable should deal with this problem. There are only two fan headers for case fans, so you'll need to use PSU adapters for any additional fans.
Overall Review: I didn't care much about the fact this was a Micro ATX board, just the feature set. I have no expansion cards other than the video card. I might consider adding an audio card later, and there's plenty of room for that. I can't fault them for the cramped space around the x16 slot on a board this small. The board's build quality is excellent and all the cons were trivial to work around with spare hardware I have lying around. I mention them only for others' benefit in planning if they decide to go with this board.
Stable, Reliable

Pros: Having a device designed to run DD-WRT is incredibly nice and offers a lot of flexibility. The router has been stable and reliable, never crashing or losing connectivity.
Cons: None.
Amazing

Pros: It's hard to find anything wrong with this mouse. It works well, it's precise and it has given me no trouble.
Cons: The lights are completely pointless, but they come on by default until the Windows utility manually shuts them off. When using the mouse on a Linux machine, I have not found any way to disable the lights.
Overall Review: I use the mouse connected to a KVM between a Linux and Windows machine. Be sure to check for firmware updates if you have any issues.
Good, Reliable Modem

Pros: I've found this modem to be fast and reliable, and a good value. The promise of IPv6 support for when my ISP begins offering it is a good thing too.
Cons: Operationally, none. See other thoughts for an issue I encountered.
Overall Review: I had a lot of trouble registering the modem with my cable provider. During initial setup it would reboot over and over again in the middle of registration, causing me to have to start over. This may have been the ISP's fault. Rushing through the registration seemed to help.
Fine, but slow shipping from overseas
NewEgg promoted an item from this seller as an "easy addon" and I accepted the offer, only to realize later on that the item shipped from China and took quite a long time to arrive. I probably wouldn't have bothered if I had realized. Not sure if that's the seller's fault or NewEgg's really, but I don't see why this seller should be selling quick extras to US customers.
